TripleTen

Choosing the Triple Ten QA Engineering Bootcamp was initially a nerve-wracking decision for me, especially considering my limited knowledge in the tech field. The catalyst for my career change was the desire to break free from the monotonous 9 to 5 routine, lack of growth opportunities, and a schedule that kept me away from quality time with friends and family. The appeal of a tech career lay in the promise of a balanced work-life equation and the opportunity to continually acquire new skills while refining existing ones for career advancement.

Embarking on this journey while working full-time and undergoing a major move from California to Arizona posed significant challenges. However, Triple Ten demonstrated exceptional understanding by allowing me the flexibility to temporarily step away from my studies to focus on the relocation. This gesture highlighted the program's commitment to supporting students through real-life challenges, setting a positive tone for the entire experience.

To be candid, the course has been anything but easy. It has presented me with formidable challenges, pushing me out of my comfort zone and demanding a substantial commitment of time and effort. Yet, what has made this journey worthwhile and ultimately successful has been the unwavering support system provided by Triple Ten.

The tutors associated with the program have been instrumental in my learning process. Their expertise, accessibility, and patience have turned what seemed insurmountable into manageable challenges. The collaborative spirit among fellow students has fostered a sense of community and shared learning, where we celebrate successes and navigate difficulties together. The community managers, too, have played a pivotal role, ensuring that the support network extends beyond academic concerns to encompass the holistic well-being of each student.

Triple Ten has not just been an educational platform; it's been a partner in my personal and professional growth. The emphasis on community, combined with the dedication to accommodating life's unexpected turns, sets this bootcamp apart. While the road has been tough, the sense of achievement and the arsenal of skills acquired make every hurdle worthwhile.

In conclusion, if you are ready to embrace challenges, eager to learn, and seeking a supportive community to guide you through the complexities of the tech world, Triple Ten QA Engineering Bootcamp is the transformative journey you've been looking for.

Transitioning to a career in Software Engineering is a significant challenge, and TripleTen recognizes the difficulties inherent in such a move. They provide crucial support to initiate your journey, offering resources such as tutors, study buddy programs, and regular check-ins from a community manager. My experience as a Project Manager, working closely with engineers and product managers, deepened my interest in the field. This led me to join the program with the aspiration of becoming an engineer, a decision I regret not making earlier in my career.
Completing the 10-month bootcamp in early November stands out as the best decision I've made, solidifying my commitment to and passion for Software Engineering. While TripleTen is highly supportive of career transitions, there are essential considerations before committing:

1. Time Commitment: Despite being advertised as a part-time bootcamp, TripleTen requires a commitment of 20-30 hours per week. I undertook the program while working full-time, which proved to be a significant challenge. Although manageable, it demands substantial commitment and perseverance, involving 2-3 hours every night after work and 10-15 hours on weekends.
2. Learning Style: TripleTen's self-paced structure allows flexibility, with two weeks allocated for each sprint. While this format suited my situation, considering your learning style is crucial. Unlike other bootcamps with scheduled classes, TripleTen's approach may require additional self-directed learning and independent research.

Additional insights:

• Tutors are accessible via Discord, even outside office hours.
• Content is self-paced, with a two-week timeline for each sprint.
• Opportunities for code jams and externships are available, but participation in externships may be unclear and wait-listed.
• Office hours may be crowded, with limited time for individual questions, but some tutors go beyond scheduled hours to help.
• Externship participation may be challenging to secure, and the process is not entirely transparent, potentially based on a wait-list system.

My journey with Triple Ten has definitely challenged me to achieve personal goals. The courses definitely start off easy as you go through the first few sprints. Where I was able to attain and utilize what I’ve learned in order to continue onto the next sprint. I am currently halfway through the curriculum where it does get challenging in some areas as I try to attain all the information on separate areas of coding and utilize each new piece of code into my projects. Triple Ten provides a ton of help needed to continue on if you’re in a bind on your projects. The tutors, grad students or even students currently in the program provide useful information and help which definitely relives stress from my shoulders. Overall I would definitely recommend Triple Ten if you’re looking to get into software engineering. The courses are great so far , the challenges, information, and communication for help is over the top. 

I started TripleTen because I wanted to learn to do something that I could both enjoy and make work with my hearing loss. Their Quality Assurance Engineering program seemed like it would be a great opportunity for me. Not only do I enjoy learning the different methods for finding bugs and reporting them, but a good portion of the lessons tied into my previous experience as a graphic designer.

I found that the TripleTen program also worked well around my day job, and with the limitations I have with my hearing loss. All the lessons are online which made it easy for me to do the reading portions on my lunch breaks and the practice portions when I was at home. Also, many of the sprints and their projects have video tutorials that go with them, as well as a dedicated section on the TripleTen Discord where I was able to ask questions and receive feed back when I needed help. The majority of the videos even let me turn the captions on (again a big deal for me). When I asked a question I was able to receive feedback reasonably quickly, and I never felt as if my questions were unreasonable, even on the occasion where I found the answer on my own within fifteen minutes of asking it in the Discord. 

It's a very self-paced program, and I tend to be super motivated when I'm learning things, so I think I was actually able to finish the course several weeks faster than anticipated. I feel like they give you plenty of time to get things done even while working around every day life and a full time job. 

I will also say that TripleTen is very good about asking for feedback on each section and working to improve their lessons to provide a great experience. I struggles a bit with the JavaScript portion because it was entirely new to me, and I do feel there's room for improvement in how some of that material is presented, but I also feel like my voice was heard when I offered feedback.

My Community Manager also was amazing. She checked in on me regularly, sent me tutorial links when I couldn't find them, helped me work out a problem I had when trying to link my project so the reviewer could see it, and even gave me extra time on one of my project when I had a family emergency. 

The reviewers also gave concise, but clear feedback. I could usually tell exactly what they suggested I needed to work on or correct, and the submission and feedback process for each project was very straightforward with clear instructions. It's normal to take two rounds to get a project passed so please don't feel discouraged if you don't get a project on your first try!

I have not joined the career acceleration program quite yet, but believe me when I say I'm very excited to get some career coaching and start the next step on this journey.

I am currently a student halfway through TripleTens Software Engineering program. 

First and foremost, the curriculum is top-notch. The tutors are not only experts in their respective fields but also excellent educators. They have a knack for breaking down complex concepts into digestible pieces, making it accessible to learners of all backgrounds. From the fundamentals of programming to advanced topics, the curriculum is comprehensive and up-to-date with the latest industry trends.

One of the standout features of TripleTen is the hands-on approach to learning. The bootcamp provides ample opportunities for students to apply what they've learned through real-world projects. This practical experience is invaluable for building confidence and honing coding skills.

The support system at TripleTen is another remarkable aspect. The community managers, career coaches and tutors are genuinely invested in your success. Their dedication to helping students succeed extends well beyond the duration of the bootcamp.

Furthermore, the community at TripleTen is a vibrant and diverse one. Interacting with fellow students, sharing experiences, and working together on projects create a nurturing and motivating atmosphere. It fosters a sense of camaraderie that is truly inspiring especially when participating in code jams or externships!

The bootcamp's commitment to inclusivity and diversity deserves applause. They actively promote on their socials a welcoming environment for individuals from all backgrounds, ensuring that everyone feels valued and heard.

In conclusion, TripleTen is more than just a coding program; it's a life-changing experience for anyone looking to jumpstart a career in technology. With its outstanding curriculum, hands-on approach, unwavering support, and inclusive community, this coding bootcamp sets a gold standard for tech education. I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone seeking to embark on a successful journey in the world of coding, data science and much more. 

The reason why I decided to learn about Data Science/Data Analytics is because I knew that analytical skills with data, finance, or even business are strong skills to develop in an individuals career. I graduated with a Finance degree & started working my first full time tech job for a finance company that involved company data & that is when I realized how much I enjoyed the job/career path. I wanted to expand my knowledge & gain new skills, so I signed up for the Data Analytics program, and after I couple months I decided to switch into the Data Science program to be more STEM focused. I chose TripleTen because of the realistic length of the bootcamp(almost a full year is a good length of time to get a good grip on a tough subject like data science) , and the way their curriculum is set up. You first read the material, & do a couple practice problems. Once you are complete, at the end of the sprint you create a project to show off your skills. That was a big deal for me! I love how I was able to showcase my skills & then post them onto my GitHub. I still use all the TripleTen material today. It is an interactive platform & it is AMAZING they give you LIFE access to the content you paid for. The curriculum & platform is always being updated, so there is something always pulling you back to TripleTen, which is a huge green flag for a bootcamp. I am now obtaining a MS in Information Systems & Technology, so TripleTen has helped me build a foundation of skills which has made my transition into my masters program easier & less stressful. 

I recommend TripleTen to anyone that is interested in coding. They help all their students if they are stuck, & give you extension weeks just in case life gets busy! For those who are just getting started, coding takes time to understand, so be kind to yourself. Coding as a skill is a JOURNEY which will need continual education & practice even after the program. TripleTen brings structure & helps students develop discipline during their studies. In the end, make sure you have fun with it! Not only will you learn how to code, but your problem solving muscle will also get better which is a skill that will help you in the short-term & long-term as well. 

I'm still a student at TripleTen, and I've gone through 9 of the 16 total sprints so far. From the very first one, the information was presented in a clear and effective manner. The theory is comprehensive without being overwhelming, and the exercises are great reinforcement of each of the theory segments. The projects at the end of each sprint are direct applications of the information presented in the chapter, with just enough challenge to push your skills and solidify your learning. There's just enough guidance to let you figure out things own your own, or get help from tutors. 

Each sprint builds on past material very well, advancing your knowledge as the program goes along. The community support and engagement is great as well. Community managers and tutors are super responsive and helpful; the scheduled office hours for students to have a planned time to ask for help and questions are very useful as well. The tutors are very knowledgeable; they're always willing to help, and explain ideas beyond the scope of projects or sprints.

TripleTen has been a great experience so far, and I would definitely recommend it for anyone looking to get into software engineering. 

I joined practicum (now TripleTen) after deciding to take a serious next step towards a career change. I was looking for a bootcamp that could fulfill a few things. I wanted it to be a strong bootcamp, with flexible hours. I work a full time job, and many other commitments, so finding something that was flexible was one of my top priorities. Many other bootcamps require you to join a live coding class, which I think is extremely helpful, but hard to commit to when you have other responsibilities. TripleTen allows me to work on my own schedule. I also find the coursework to be extremely strong, and progresses from easily to very difficult, which allows you to become accustomed to the platform, coding and learning. The community of learners is super strong helpful and encouraging. I have started close relationships with other students which has allowed me to 1) grow my network, 2) make friends in the field, and 3) get support from other students. We have created a community where we come together to support each other. The tutors are super helpful and are often available at many different hours of the day.

I was hesitant to trust bootcamps or courses and had been searching for a company that I felt was legitimate and truly offered real-world skills. After interviewing multiple recruiters from various organizations, I decided to go with TripleTen(formerly Practicum) as their structure seemed best fit for my life. I was skeptical of ANY bootcamp that they would provide the skills I was searching for to be competitive in this field. After completing multiple steps of the Software Engineer course, it's safe to say I am thrilled that I made the decision to go with TripleTen. The course layouts and information, real-world projects, career preparation, and community of students and tutors has made this an outstanding experience.

At December 2022 I started Software Engineering program with Practicum. Since this moment alot of things has changed, the program is so organized and well developed with a way that makes you amazed of how fast you have developed as a programmer. The amount of support you have from tutors and comunity managers is awesome, all I can say is people who work over there are really welling to help and they like doing so which is in my opinion, the most important trait that makes an educational platform success.

Practicum is a great learning environment for those who need a learning structure. I'm trying to change careers and tried to learn programming by myself but began to wonder what I knew verses what I didn't know. That's when I found Practicum. It's curriculum is great and seems to always be improving! I'm able to get help from the tutors, go to office hours if I'm struggling and the projects focus on real-world projects. The career team is also helping me advance my future career by giving me tips on my resume, portfolio and cover letters! Without Practicum, I would still be stuck trying to figure out what I needed to learn to break into the workforce of programming.

I joined Practicum Software Engineer bootcamp with the sole purpose of learning end to end web development. I tried many programs (from youtube videos to other freely available bootcamps) to get minimum knowledge in web development. In all these programs, I felt that a methodical approach is missing. I know that I can easily create a website following some youtube tutorials. But such websites are not professionally implemented, and are very difficult to maintain. For instance while styling websites, we should follow a methodology like BEM to create well maintainable websites. Practicum has the state of the art methodologies to implement real websites for businesses. I tried Practicum's free code camp (the first module), and was impressed that they have an excellent program that could help me to create professional websites. After my free trial, I immediately switched to the paid program, and I am quite satisfied with my decision. If you are serious about developing professional websites, please do not waste your time in following youtube tutorials or some freely available bootcamps. Unless you do hands-on work and get the feedback on your work, you are not on the right path to success. Practicum's curriculum has the right balance of theory and practice. In each sprint you will be given some study material with exercises, and you will also work on a project, which will be professionally evaluated. The project work in each sprint will reinforce your learnings. Consider Practicum if you have these goals and traits: 1. You want to develop professional websites 2. The program does not have video lessons (or have very limited videos). You should be comfortable in studying the text material rendered via practicum website. 3. You are not discouraged by the feedback you get highlighting the mistakes in your logic/code in each sprint. 4. You seriously looking to start a career as a Software Engineer 5. You are ready to spend at least 10 hours a week on the program

I am a full-time employee working at Uber and some other companies that use the same business model. The reason I decided to become a programmer started a few years ago, thing that became a little bit difficult since I had to move from my home country. I used to study using Udemy platform, and I can already tell the difference between the two courses, in practicum you have assistance 24/7 from tutors located all over the world and the country. The course has a wide curriculum for you to have in your personal portfolio but also varies the projects every certain amount of time. The career acceleration program seems something super useful, in which you have somebody help you land your first job in this awesome career.

Practicum has been a life changing experiment for me. The entirety of the program has taught me so much and I am not even half way done with the course. The material is amazing and all the tutors and community managers are super nice and are always there to help. I can not stress how much I have learned in just two months and how much you can learn if you put your faith into the program! I would tell anyone to take this course if they are serious about learning and want to be a successful software engineer!

Let me start by saying WOW! This is a really good course. It exceeded all my expectations, although I am still studying and I still have 4 months of study. I had study experience: I graduated from college with a degree in programming (but this was not enough for the modern market, plus the college program was very weak), then I took 3-4 courses at udemy (it was a good experience, quite interesting pet projects, but still not enough to start working). My last step was to go to the practicum. I thought I already knew a lot, after all, college courses .... I knew no more than 40% of what they gave me on the course. This is an amazing course, constant technical support, support from mentors, sooooo much practice. Interesting projects that you are not ashamed to show to the employer later. I have never regretted taking this course.

I had been looking for a Data Analytics  bootcamp for awhile that provides live support, but would be flexible enough that I could complete it while working. Practicum Bootcamp was exactly that - you complete the lessons on your own time, but they have built-in live support and deadlines to keep you on track. The lessons included tasks where you practice and learn to apply the code to business scenarios, and you have to complete them correctly to proceed. If you get stuck, there is a Slack channel where you can ask for help from tutors and fellow students. The tutors were always responsive, and they also held regular office hours to provide real-time support. I thought the best part was that each sprint ended with a project where you get to practice applying the skills in real world scenarios. These projects are reviewed by coders, so you get individualized feedback and pass the project back and forth until it is approved. Each sprint built on the one before, so you continue to practice basic coding skills (ex. data preprocessing and exploratory data analysis), as they add on more advanced topics. Finally, the tutors hold regular live workshops to review the topics in the lessons. These are optional but they are a chance to get some extra support on projects and learn some additional resources around the topics covered in the lessons. The program is definitely a time commitment, and something you have to stay on top of in order to complete (you have to meet a number of hard deadlines to stay in the program), but I would recommend it, especially for professionals looking to add on coding skills while working.  

I'll start with some background...
I recently completed my master's degree at the Faculty of Economics. In the process of studying various subjects related to statistics, I had to deal with data analysis. Many of my classmates were already familiar with data analysis and had experience from undergraduate studies. I had to learn everything from scratch. This is how my interest in the Date of Analysis was born.
Why exactly Practicum Bootcamp?
One of my friends, having learned about my interests, advised me to the Practicum Bootcamp school, since he himself had recently completed his courses and was very satisfied with the training he had completed.
Practicum Bootcamp has a very convenient interactive interface, friendly and always ready to help tutors, interesting projects, and training can be done at any convenient time. I especially want to note the responsible tutors who are interested in success in passing a certain stage of the Bootcamp.
It is also important to note the Slack community here, where you can get assistance or also help other students when they are stuck and get advice from the tutors or managers of the program.
As you know, the IT sector is one of the fastest growing sectors of the global economy. And one cannot do without knowledge of data analysis in modern business. I have not yet completed the course, as I combine work with study, but I have already noticed progress in the date of analysis. Therefore, I advise Practicum Bootcamp to anyone who wants to improve their career advancement or upgrade their knowledge.

I am a student in the Practicum Software Engineer course.  In this course I have learned HTML and CSS, JavaScript, and I am currently learning React.  The course also includes Backend programming, which I will get to soon.

I am extremely pleased to have chosen Practicum to learn web development.   From day 1 the Practicum team has been very supportive, and their learning environment is excellent.  The course is web based, and Practicum has a very well designed and implemented environment.  After completing theory sessions in each section or sprint, you will use the Practicum IDE to complete exercises that are included with most theory lessons.  After completing the section you will complete a project designed to put your new skills to use.  It is extremely satisfying to see the web pages come to life!

One other exciting skill I have picked up is using GitHub.  All of the Practicum projects are done using GitHub, and this is a very valuable skill for web developers/software engineers to learn.

The lessons and projects are extremely well done, and the people are even better.  Practicum has global students, and they have a global team of community managers, code reviewers and tutors.  The Practicum team really is top notch and they do show a lot of care about my progress, and there is always someone to help me when I need help.

Multiple different courses in a 9 month program. Each course gives you 2-3 weeks to complete it and includes lessons along with a project to help improve your skills. 

I started my journey to become a data scientist with no experience in coding. I tried using online sources but was quickly overwhelmed by the bulk of material and things I needed to know. More than anything, I was looking for a structured program. A kind of road map to becoming a data scientist. I decided to start the course on Practicum and I am glad I did. 
The program is very structured and there is a definite road map that you can see. The lessons are quite understandable too.
Even with no prior experience in coding, I was able to understand different coding concepts and practice them on the website. And even times when I felt lost, all I had to do was ask questions and the tutors would give solutions to whatever problems I was facing. The support is really great.
Also, with this program, you don't have to go through long installations of different software just to get you up and running. All tasks can be coded and solved on the platform and so no need to worry about getting a new PC due to heavy software requirements.
I'm currently training and using machine learning models and algorithms on different real life projects. That's a huge step up from not knowing how to code when I first started.
In all, it's a great course, real value for your money.
