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.

More than just a Bootcamp
TrueCoders is more then just a bootcamp, it is an entire community based around learning with hundreds of active users ranging from new students to alumni willing to help. It is also a rigorous course where you get out of it what you put in. Career services has been there for us since day one, helping and guiding our career efforts. I highly recommend this bootcamp. - Cory SondermanGraduate • Full-Stack Software Engineering Day Course • OnlineVerified by LinkedInDec 01, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Coding Bootcamp
When I first decided to take a coding bootcamp I was hesitant to go through TurueCoders. 9 weeks just did not seem like enough time. After speaking to one of the founders I decided to sign up and I am very glad that I did. The program is challenging but the instructor keeps everyone on pace. They also have a great community on discord. Many of the alumni are still involved and everyone helps out when they can. - Graham SpencerGraduate • Full-Stack Software Engineering Day Course • OnlineVerified by LinkedInOct 26, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Would highly recommend
I completed this program last week and I had an excellent experience. The instructors have a firm grasp on the material and they do an incredible job at making sure everyone understands the material before moving on to the next subject. While you move from subject to subject pretty quickly, the pace never felt like it was overwhelming. It is a lot of work but I'm leaving the program feeling confident in my abilities and I feel ready to build on these skills and enter the job market.

It is a lot of work but I'm leaving the program feeling confident in my abilities and I feel ready to build on these skills and enter the job market. This program is also amazing in the fact that they offer all of their resources to all graduates forever. Whether that be career services meetings, 1-on-1's with any project or topic you might need help with, labs, study groups - they are all available for graduates to utilize whenever they need them. This program does a great job at making sure their graduates have all the tools they need to suceed and find a job at their disposal. - Frank AlvesStudent • Full-Stack Software Engineering Day Course • OnlineVerified by GitHubOct 24, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

I have met with Tyson Lind who wasn't my instructor but he is not only a very knowledgeable and was very happy to help with my questions. They also have career services that Andrea Schwenk leads. She teaches you how and what is going to happen in interviews. She also teaches you how to make you resume as a web developer. I was and am very pleased and impressed on how personable everyone was. They genuinely care for your success..

My TrueCoders Experience!
My TrueCoders advanced technical training experience was wonderful. The instructors, available study groups, Discord channel of classmates and alumni, and career services components set TrueCoders apart from other bootcamps. They value establishing and keeping relationships, and they set you up for success with coding content knowledge and how to approach your job hunt. - Justin CampbellStudent • Full-Stack Web Development Day Course • OnlineVerified by LinkedInAug 11, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

Weekly career service meetings were extremely fulfilling as well, and taught things about how to market yourself and job search that can not be learned elsewhere. The constant availability for one on one teaching and assistance from both the teaching teams, TA's, and career services allows you to access someone regardless of what type of help you might need.
The course itself was structured in such a way that was natural and conducive to learning despite where your starting point may be. Flowing from the absolute fundamentals of Git and front-end, to the meat of the back-end, and finally how to piece it all together for a true full-stack program. The projects we also well structured and well placed. At no point in this course do you feel like you are wasting time or don't have the tools to succeed. - Autif KamalStudent • Full-Stack Software Engineering FLEX Course • OnlineVerified by LinkedInJun 29, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
They did not help me get a job
Compared to other bootcamps, the price is low. The daily access to mentors via Zoom is nice. The program is well structured and pretty much every lesson has associated videos that were made by TrueCoders if you want them. The videos themselves just seem to be recordings from previous workshops and classes, but they're still useful. Having said all that, I enrolled in this program because I was hoping for a fast track to a job.

Having said all that, I enrolled in this program because I was hoping for a fast track to a job. I completed a project while in the program, I have a TrueCoders certificate but alas I still have no job. So, I'm doing what I was doing before. Applying to 10 jobs a day. In summary, don't pay the money for this program if you're hoping for a job at the end of itMichael of TrueCoders

Hi Autif, I'm so glad we were able to speak and formulate a game plan going forward!The job search process is overwhelming when done on your own, and that's why it's so important we meet regularly with our students until they're hired.Each student will need to adjust their strategy depending on the results they're seeing. If we send 300 applications and don't receive an interview, then something needs to be adjusted. This could be anything from our resume, to what type of jobs we're applying for, or even how we're applying to jobs. If we complete 15 interviews and don't receive an offer, then we need to find out what interview skills we need to work on, and attack them. That could be coding skills, that could be soft skills - every student is different.I want to stress this to any student or potential student reading this: We are here for you until you're hired, and we do not recommend applying for jobs on your own. We need to meet regularly to work on your progress and adjust tactics when needed. - Adam JankowskiFull stack developer • Graduate • Full-Stack Software Engineering Day Course • OnlineVerified by LinkedInJun 02, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Great people lots to learn
It's a lot harder than I anticipated and I don't necessarily believe that just anybody can learn to code or that you'll be 100% ready for a job in two months but nobody will be able to teach you the amount of information these people do in this short amount of time, nobody. They will also set you up beautifully on the career end and you will look like a professional coder by the end of class.

Zach’s TrueCoders Review
TrueCoders helped me actually find a place where I feel like I can thrive. From the teachers to the resources, it’s by far the best! I never thought I’d be able to learn coding due to having ADHD but the instructors are SUPER helpful and when I had to be rushed to the hospital, my entire class and all my teachers reached out to me to make sure I was okay. I couldn’t imagine anywhere else doing that. All the instructors are top notch and really funny too! 1000000/10 would recommend enroll...TrueCoders helped me actually find a place where I feel like I can thrive.
