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.

Zero to Developer
If you're looking to go into the tech field, TrueCoders is the course for you. Starting off, I knew nothing about software developing but in 9 weeks I went from knowing nothing to being a TRUE developer. With the extra help through 1 on 1 training and the training through career services, you will be ready for the tech industry. I recommend TrueCoders to anyone. - Alex ColemanStudent • Software Engineering Bootcamp (Day Course) • OnlineVerified by LinkedInAug 24, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
TrueCoders
Had a great time during my time at Trucoders the teachers were very helpful and knowledgeable. We had a small to medium class size with multiple student teachers so there was always somebody available to help us. Unlimited 1 on 1 time after class is also a nice benefit to have when working through new material. Meetings with career services weekly and she is always available to help or answer any questions you might have.

This course is amazing for people who are looking to change careers or even just gain more experience in the technical field. The instructors were extremely supportive and helpful. They make sure to pack as much useful information they can into a 9 week course. The amount of knowledge I am leaving with is astonishing. I would recommend this course to anyone.- Connie JohnstonGraduate • Full-Stack Web Development Bootcamp (Day Class) • OnlineVerified by LinkedInJul 22, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

Wonderful Experience
TrueCoders is truly fantastic! I learned so much about coding in such a short amount of time. The teachers and TAs were always there to help with any problems and the opportunities to learn are profound. If you’re considering a coding bootcamp, I assure you this is the one! - Sokpagna LimStudent • OnlineVerified by GitHubJul 21, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Great School!
Jeremy was my instructor as well as all the TA, Andrea, Amoriss, and Morgan are very kind and patient. I have never exposed myself to coding before the class so its not gonna be easy. But I am seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. And I believe you will too with all the genuine supports provided, but of course you have to put the work into it. The option to be able to retake the class is a plus especially for me, a mom of a 7 months old and a 4 years old who hasn't start school.Jeremy was my instructor as well as all the TA, Andrea, Amoriss, and Morgan are very kind and patient.

Oh I almost forgot about Denise, the career services director!! I think she is one of the great value to the TrueCoders. She is one of the most Genuine, caring persons who is sincerely and may hurt u a little enough only for your own sake and waking you up to keep going for your goal. I so appreciate her.
She never fail to bring the positive energy every time she enters the room. She is a MUST MEET person. :D

Full Stack Web Dev Bootcamp
I highly recommend TrueCoders to anyone looking at coding bootcamps. My biggest piece of advice for future students is that you will only get out what you put into it, so expect to put in study/practice hours outside of class. One of the reasons I chose TrueCoders was because of the shorter timeframe compared to other bootcamps (9 weeks full time), but the biggest disadvantage to that is the speed at which the class moves. Looking back at just a couple of months ago it is crazy how much ...I highly recommend TrueCoders to anyone looking at coding bootcamps.

Review
Came into the course with no prior knowledge of coding and now I have a better understanding of it. TrueCoders also help with mock interviews, LinkedIn, GitHub, and how to build your resume. Instructors answer any questions you may have and also offer 1 on 1 zoom calls for anyone who needs extra help. I took the full-stack software engineering day course and I thought it was great. The only complaint I have is that my class did skip over JavaScript. - Colby SoldanStudent • Software Engineering Bootcamp (Day Course) • OnlineVerified by LinkedInJul 20, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Absolutely Worth It
Couldn't have asked for a better introduction to coding. The instructors are incredibly helpful and patient, the curriculum is well-developed, and the career services alone are worth enrolling in the course. Denise will get you where you want to go!
The price you pay upfront is the only cost associated with the course. As long as you've got a computer, all the programs and websites they use are free. Best money I've ever spent. - jermaine bufordstudentVerified by GitHubJul 20, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

I did an enormous amount of research in coding camps. I taught high school for almost 10 years and was looking to make a career change and a friend of mine told me about his experience with TrueCoders. I looked into it and then explored many other options because, if I'm going to leave a career with solid job security, I want to know my chances of success. After about 4 months of research, I decided to take the plunge. I haven't regretted it for a single moment, since. The instructors (I...I did an enormous amount of research in coding camps.

After about 4 months of research, I decided to take the plunge. I haven't regretted it for a single moment, since. The instructors (I had Jeremy) and the TA's (I had Andrea and Morgan) have been outstanding. As a previous educator, I know what makes or breaks a good teacher and Jeremy fits the bill as a fine educator. The other perks of TrueCoders, such as the career services program, are equally as wonderful. Most other programs don't even offer career services. If you are an established professional in another field seeking a change like I was, then you should rest easy putting your faith in TrueCoders. They will help you get the job done. - David ChuvikStudent • BirminghamVerified by LinkedInJul 15, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A

Honestly can't find a bigger bang for your buck! This BootCamp was affordable and high quality. One of their most significant selling points for me was their career services, Denise Shines is an incredible career coach. They really do have the resources to help you learn to code, you just have to put in the work.
