TrueCoders is a full-stack software development Bootcamp that offers an intensive full-time 9-week schedule or a self-paced schedule. The full-time 9-week schedule is a live online course, while the self-paced version allows students the ability to take the course when it is convenient for them. The self-paced schedule is a great option for students who need to retain their full-time jobs but still want a career change. Students of either schedule have the ability to receive unlimited one-on-one support from instructors and career services.
TrueCoders offers 2 different courses: Full-Stack Software Engineering and Full-Stack Web Development. The software engineering course covers C#, .NET Core, the ASP.NET MVC framework, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, relational databases like SQL, WebKit-based debuggers, and basic working knowledge of networking and file permissions. The web development course covers, Node.JS, Express.JS, React.JS, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, relational databases like SQL, hosting web applications using Heroku and GitHub pages, FlexBox design, and Webpack bundling. TrueCoders also specializes in source control and students will receive in-depth instruction on git CLI and GitHub in either class.
TrueCoders aims to provide new coders with the tools needed to find a position in the digital job market including marketable skills, career navigation, and a support community. TrueCoders is meant for career switchers and those with no prior programming experience who wish to enter the tech industry. The application process for both classes begins by scheduling an interview online. A member of their staff will soon follow up with a call.
Before graduation, TrueCoders prepares their students for the job market by improving their resumes, helping them create networking opportunities, and hosting practice interviews. TrueCoders also focuses on communication skills and teaches students how to leverage connections they may have in the tech industry (including fellow students). After graduation, the TrueCoders placement team works with graduates to make introductions, set up interviews, coaching before interviews sending out job applications.

Best school to help get you going
This is probably one of the best courses out there to help you learn a skill and get work. The full time course is 9 weeks with an instructor who is always there to help out. You get a super nice counselor who helps in so many way from interview skills and getting your resume nice and shiny. - Josh SGraduate • OnlineVerified by GitHubDec 17, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Great bootcamp
I've got no real experience coding but I was familiar with some of the concepts (If statements and loops were used in the level editor of an old game I used to play) and some experience using Git / Github from being a Linux user.
the course mostly focused on C# but also covered MySQL, HTML, CSS, API's, ASP.NET, and touched on other things.

the course mostly focused on C# but also covered MySQL, HTML, CSS, API's, ASP.NET, and touched on other things.
one thing I thought would help ease some issues totally new to this stuff is if they went over the console/terminal/command prompt and how the information it displays relates to how people are used to browsing their files and such using windows explorer or whatever file browser they use. even so, they do seem to be patient people and worked with anyone who was having trouble understanding things to help them along.
something to note is that they send you and e-mail with a little bit of prep work when you sign up. it's really just some of the easier to learn stuff that you use later on. while they do go over this stuff during the course you get a much better grasp of it if you do the prep work before hand to familiarize yourself with it. it's also fairly easy to cover it all in a few days time if you get working on it.
so signing up a week or more before the start of the bootcamp does actually give you time to better prepare yourself for the rest of the course and leaves you in a stronger position later in the course.
the job placement meetings were constantly filled with great information and strategies about how to help find and get jobs.
this sort of thing can be quite important because how employers find employees doesn't remain the same as it's always been.
I learned a lot and I never would have known how to even start what I did for my final project before.
honestly, it feels a little crazy to say that I didn't know how to code at all just over 2 months ago considering what I know I can do now.
I'd certainly say TrueCoders is a worthwhile experience. - CamJr. Software Dev • Student • Full-Stack Web Development Day Course • OnlineVerified by LinkedInDec 17, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

Full Stack Software Engineering
TrueCoders has a well-designed curriculum with good instructors. In my class, Whit did a great job of not only teaching but also guiding the students who came from a broad level of prior competence. Not only did I learn a lot during the classes about C#, SQL, and full-stack development, but I now have much in the way of resources and projects to use as reference going forward. The class was offered online and that all went well - better than I could have imagined.

Michael was a great instructor. He went over every bit of material thoroughly and was there when anyone had questions ready to help. The course was quick and in your face but also laid back. Would definitely refer anyone to take this class. - AmberStudent • Full-Stack Software Engineering Day Course • OnlineVerified by LinkedInDec 17, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
One of the best decisions I made!
I was really unsatisfied with my current job and was interested in pursuing programming. I quit my job in Oct 2020 and started classes two weeks later. Soooo glad I did. Michael was the best instructor for us beginners in this class, very patient, and understands the material he is teaching so well, that he is able to write and draw out the concepts for us to follow along with.

All the staff her has great attitudes and are all helpful. My classmates were great as well. Denise, the director of job placement, was also fantastic and was there with us every step of the way when searching for a new job. There were some things that we brought up in the class I wish we spent more time on, but the course is only 9-10 weeks so I understand it's not feasible to teach it all in that amount of time. I at least know what to continuing studying! - KevStudent • Full-Stack Software Engineering Day Course • OnlineVerified by LinkedInDec 17, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

TrueCoders has opened up my world in software/web development.

I found the curriculum very well written and understandable. Ms. Denise, head of career services, is by far the most enthusiastic person I have ever met, she's very eager to help as much as she can. She also holds two meetings each week to bring up topics such as the interview process and how to build a usable resume.
Overall I am very pleased with the experience I had here and I will be recommending them to anyone looking for a bootcamp. - SarahStudent • Full-Stack Software Engineering Day Course • OnlineVerified by LinkedInOct 15, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

I'm graduating from the course soon and have some interviews for entry-level roles scheduled, so I can say from the other side that if you stick with it, you'll have what you need to get started on a new path (and for much, MUCH less than it costs to attend most other boot camps--I'd thought about doing a boot camp for years, but the idea of taking out a big loan always stopped me. The price for this course made a difference to me, so it'll probably come into play for others, too.) - KevinGraduate • Full-Stack Software Engineering Day Course • OnlineVerified by LinkedInOct 15, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

Best C#/ASP.NET BootCamp in USA
After attending TrueCoders online for the past 9 weeks, I am fully convinced that they are the best at what they do - C#/ASP.NET Stack BootCamp, covering a lot of technologies including C#, ASP.NET, MVC, SQL, HTML, CSS, Bootstrap, JavaScript, Git/GitHub, Azure Deployment and many more using multiple resources made available to all students.

Michael, our Instructor, was highly knowledgeable and patient with every student to ensure we all understood each lesson before moving to the next. They also had TA's on standby for one-on-one assistance whenever we needed such. Group work/project was encouraged to give us teamwork experience with a simulation of a real-life work environment.
Be warned, however, that this Bootcamp is not for the faint-hearted. You must be ready to put in the works to get the desired outcome at the end of the 9-weeks. From my personal experience, I suggest an additional 4-6 hours of study outside of the classroom per day, for you to be job-ready by the end of the program. Just make sure you do your pre-Bootcamp study/assignments before the start of class, this gives you a soft-landing into the curriculum they use.
The most important skill been taught by this BootCamp is teaching students "how to learn, gain confidence in what they know, conduct productive research for what they don't know, and how to apply it to their projects and get the desired results". Having this skill gave me the confidence to take upon any project, a programming concept or feature needed for a project or a new programming language, and be able to learn it within the shortest possible time.
Despite all the qualities mentioned above, they are the most affordable BootCamp in the class of such a curriculum and standard of delivery, with flexible payment options.
I also like the Job Placement sessions with Denise which gave us a lot of strategies and tips to prepare for job interviews/placement. She did a professional review of all student's resumes/portfolios and sent us some open positions to apply for based on qualifications and helped connect us to various recruiters on LinkedIn. I currently have some interviews lined up and will be back to post updates on how they go.
