    Highly skilled and fun instructors, well-designed programs and a unique virtual community spirit

    600 hours of new knowledge input, collaborative pet projects, and intense practicing periods... All made possible and guided by WBS Coding School and their super cool staff. Frankly, I don't have any other coding school to directly compare my experience with, however, I really wanted to endorse their program here since I went "from zero to hero" thanks to them. Doing the part-time Web Development course with WBS was my personal highlight ever since the pandemic broke out. Prior to the official start of the course, the school provided all participants with so-called "primer" exercises on HTML and CSS which helped us get into the mood. Later, we were introduced to our instructor who would (virtually) stay right by our side as lecturer, coach, and source of knowledge for the entire time of the course. Every new week was filled with new content, valuable real-life insights, and challenging exercises. For my part, investing in myself at WBS was worthwhile all along. Towards the end of the program, we were all offered special career services, too, making sure we all had our CVs updated and our interview skills ready for the tech world. And what can I say, right after graduation I landed my first full-time job in the software sector. Kudos to WBS Coding School for their inspiring work and for helping me kickstart my career in tech!

    Amazing program for wannabe developers

    The program is basically a crash course where you can achieve knowledge of the overall front end and back end architecture. The program is compact and includes learning as well as job preparation in 3 months. WBS has competent instructors who make you ready for the job market. Pros are even if you are a beginner you would end up knowing a lot about the technologies involved and igniting the interest. Cons are you would not be 100% job ready unless you put your own effort to get into depth in each area, which may take additional time.

    Solid bootcamp that keeps improving

     I chose WBS Coding School because of its hybrids format (12 weeks online, 3 weeks on-campus). I think it's a great concept, and it worked practically as well. It meant that I could actually do the bootcamp at all, since I don't have the money to pay for housing in a city for 3 months like a lot of bootcamps want. For bootcamps like that, you really just get people who have the money. WBS also had a lot of funding options through partners and the Agentur für Arbeit here in Germany, which is how I think a lot of people paid for the bootcamp. 

    The staff takes feedback very gracefully, and is very quick to react to suggestions or complaints. I always felt that I could give my criticism/feedback to basically any staff member, and I felt that they really listened. The community manager in particular was incredibly sensitive and really listened and took action on a lot of things. The career services at the school are also great, and I felt really supported. The on-campus portion of the course is also fun, the food is great, the housing is clean and private, and you can really focus on your projects. 
    The platform that the school built for the materials is easy to navigate, and felt like a good homebase. I also really loved our teacher, and felt like we really learned a good mindset for going forward. That said, the curriculum definitely needs improvements. The tech stack they've chosen is great and very modern, but the lectures and exercises leave something to be desired. They may fix this by the time I've written this, but it's worth saying that if you do this bootcamp, learn the basics of HTML/CSS/JavaScript really well, and take time outside of class to learn the concepts, otherwise you will be stressed most of the time. That all said, I definitely feel like we learned the concepts and were thrown into realistic situations to force us to learn and grow. 
    All in all, I would definitely recommend this bootcamp and absolutely feel like it was worth my time and effort.

    Great Bootcamp!

    I really learned a lot in ths bootcamp. It was, orcourse, intense and exhausting but for all the right reasons. 
    Going from knowing nothing to creating full fletched useful webapps in 15 weeks, I honestly though that was too good to be true. But yet, here I am. 
    And I love the Demo Day. It's so nice to have a chance to show off your hard work to friends and family - as well as recruiters. But I also really like that I can see what new student are doing. It's just a lovely way to stay connected.
