Great team, OK curriculum
Overall, I would recommend WBS coding School.
According to me, the instructors and the team as a whole are the main asset of the school. Everyone is competent and always went the extra mile to facilitate our learning and make us feel comfortable.

According to me, the instructors and the team as a whole are the main asset of the school. Everyone is competent and always went the extra mile to facilitate our learning and make us feel comfortable.
I also really enjoyed the group dynamic created by the format. Small group (15 students in our batch), daily stand-up, group work every day, 'cross-over' events with other batches a lot of efforts were invested in the social aspect of the training and it shows. It allowed me to start building my network with people I actually worked with, which was one of my main objective when taking this course. The Guest-lectures, the mentor programme, also provided networking opportunities.
Maybe because the course is in english while taking place in Germany, those who took the class were motivated and the atmosphere among students good. The 'coding' level was, I find, too heterogeneous, forcing the trainers to be flexible as to not leave anyone behind. It often put the traing off-pace, with group projects being post-poned, long hours being spent on a few exercises, etc. Heterogeneity is unavoidable, but more could be done to reduce it: I would suggest closer monitoring during the pre-training time (e.g. ensuring that everyone completed the required classes before the start of the training), or harder entry tests (more in line with the requirements of the course). This would allow a tighter framework, more condusive to learning.
The curriculum is fine - the topics are relevant and by the end, I was able to build a nice 'full-stack' app, as advertised. When stucked, I could get support. There is still room for improvement with the learning material and environment, which is to be expected considering that the course was recently designed. All classes were delivered through a limited version of Google classroom - no polls or question features, can't send properly styled code in the chat... all small things which negatively impacted the dynamism and interactivity of the class. I was also not a big fan of Codebox as platform for exercises - simple github repos would have been harder at first, but less frustrating in the long run, I think. The learning materials are mostly the videos of the courses, the exercises and some slides. It's OK, but more could be done to convey the course's progress/structure. I would have loved to get every morning a list of the learning objectives, and every evening a recap of the learning outcomes.
I did not use the job assistance as much as I had planned, for personal reasons. What I can say is that all my interactions with this service were friendly and helpful. I also appreciated that it was offered up to 3 months after the training.
Again, I sincerely recommend WBS Coding School. It delivers on its promise to kickstart your coding Career. It's a 'young' training programme and there are shortcomings regarding the learning material/environment, but I am confident that those will be overcome with time. They have the right team for it :)

Amazing experience
I did the full-stack web development course at WBS and it was an unforgettable experience. We had Ben as our instructor and he is just the best :) I would definitely recommend this coding school for anyone who wants to learn coding. The curriculum is also very good and after the bootcamp I feel I have learned a lot already. The last three weeks are on camps to work on your final project for me this is a plus that I didn't find in the other coding schools . - Dimitrios AkritidisGraduate • Full-Stack Web & App Development Bootcamp (full-time) • OnlineVerified by LinkedInAug 03, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

I took part in the 15 Weeks Full Time bootcamp from February 2021 to June 2021. It was an Overall great experience, it certainly has it's pros and cons as i imagine any bootcamp does but for the sake of this review i'll concentrate on the pros.
First and foremost the Instructor, we had the pleasure of having in my opinion one of the Best instructors in Fey, and for the first week the Lead of the Bootcamp Alexis who is incredible in his way of teaching.
Fey's way of teaching us new techs is unparalleled though with the additional bonus that we could also focus on learning on our own.
The pace of the bootcamp is hasty in a good way. Yes it is a very demanding program and you will wonder sometimes "why did i join this" especially if you've got not previous experience in Web Dev, but it prepares you for the job market as best as a 3 Month program can.
The Curriculum is up to date, but i would like it better if we've had a greater focus on React, again this is not the general thinking it's more of a personal note.
The rest of the team was Friendly yet Professional which i find an excellent combination. More detailed Mareike was the first person i've spoken in the Bootcamp is in charge of making sure that our integration to the bootcamp was as smooth as it could be.
Janina in the HR is great and always a friendly person to talk to.
Last but not least Erika and Caro are in charge of making sure what you know and learned in the Bootcamp translates nicely into the Job Market and they will help you out in your search for a job.

The team of the school is very supporting (from the juniors instructors that are wonderful and super helping to the career advisor).
The curriculum of the course is really good if you want to be a full stack web developer with the latest programming languages.
The instructor is active listening to everyone's needs and if you have any problem or you feel even a little bit stack just say it and he will take the time to re-explain anything.
My advise during the course is to trust the process: I felt myself completely lost at one point but exactly how the instructor kept repeating at one point everything comes together and you fully understand everything. - RafaGraduate • Full-Stack Web & App Development Bootcamp (full-time) • Hybrid (Online & In-person)Verified by GitHubMay 05, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

The curriculum and the tech stack we learned was UP TO DATE and well prepared.FRONTEND:HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, REACTBACKEND:Node.js, Express.js,DATABASE:PostgreSQL (SQL)MongoDB(NoSQL)TOOLS:GIT,NPM,GitHub,Travis CI..
We started from the beginning very practice-oriented.Of course the tempo is pretty fast, but i knew that from the beginning - It´s a Bootcamp - and we get help whenever needed from the Jr.Instructors or the great community.Nevertheless i recommend to do the Primer (Preparation path) before very carefully.We get a lot of “best-practice” Tips from our experienced Instructor Ben and once a week we had a one on one with him where he can respond to each one individually…I also enjoyed the Team Projects every 2 week where we have practiced to work in a team with the latest Technologies GitHub,LiveShare etc.
In total i felt very comfortable from the start to the end everything was settled perfectly….Workshops,Career service,different online events (Hackathons)..and the Community Manager Janina always offered her help in any cases.

Besides teaching the technical content, our experienced trainer gave us very valuable insights into the actual work as a developer. Paired with the provided career service, I felt very well prepared for job applications and interviews. Having previous (basic) knowledge of HTML, CSS, JavaScript or any other programming language certainly helps to keep up with the fast learning speed and to maybe take even more out of this course. But don’t worry if you take this course with zero previous knowledge - it starts by teaching you all the basics and builds up on them as the course goes further. - CristianiFull-Stack Web & App Development Bootcamp (full-time) • Hybrid (Online & In-person)Verified by LinkedInMar 15, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

Technical Skills: In this short time you get a lot of information and new languages to learn from. You should be prepared that a typical 9-6 day can't be really efficient. A bit more extra time should be contributed and planned to finish the course. It's for your own good.
Overall this program is a tense experience and brings you beyond your expectations in a positive way.

I entered this course as a complete beginner, not even knowing what a terminal was or what the difference between backend and frontend development is. In retrospect I feel that this was not the best thing as it made my first month very stressful and I even cried after the first week. I was lucky enough to be working in a great group at that time and they helped me through it and reminded me that the start is scary for everyone but if you persevere and get over the initial bump, coding will start to make sense.
My instructor during the course was great and I really liked his explanation of the course material. I also really liked the fact that the lectures were recorded so I could always go over them at a later time. This was great for me as, since I was such a beginner, I needed to watch some of the lectures again to fully process what what going on. The only problem with my time there was that the group I was in was really big which I don’t think works for this type of learning. However, once we complained, WBS listened to us and got another part-time instructor on board. This was such a relief for a beginner like me because I really needed the extra help and attention and the instructor that helped was also great at explaining and very supportive. The career counselling was also a nice touch as it helped me adapt my CV to meet German standards and improve my presence on LinkedIn. I would also recommend that people new to coding should do their final project in a group. I did my final project with one other person and I feel that this made the quality of the project and the whole experience of doing it much better. My time in Berlin was also great as it was nice to meet the people I had been working with for the past months in person and I now feel that I have a small group of people to lean on when times get tough. Having connections in this industry is so important and I think that meeting up with everyone and getting to know them in person was a great added touch to this course. Having this support made the job hunt so much better and less lonely and my group now has their own channel on Discord where we share resources and meet up once in a while. I was very fortunate to have found a job as a frontend developer two months after the course and I feel that the course material prepared me for the role I will be doing.
