WBS Coding School is a hybrid tech bootcamp in Europe that teaches students to become web developers, data scientists, marketing analysts, or digital product designers in 4-6 months. Students can choose to attend online or on-campus in Berlin, Germany. The bootcamps offer a hands-on learning experience, personal feedback sessions, guided live lessons, job interview training, and a project-based curriculum to build a solid portfolio.
Full-time bootcamps follow a unique hybrid concept: the first 13 weeks take place online and students who choose to travel to Berlin will get the chance to simulate the experience of a real-working environment for the final 2 weeks of the bootcamp. Tuition includes room and board for the 2 weeks on campus. WBS Coding School's part-time bootcamp lasts 26 weeks. Part-time bootcamps consist of three-hour evening classes every Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday, and a full day of teaching on Saturdays.
WBS Coding School does not require applicants to have any previous coding experience. Applicants should be 18+ years old and proficient in English.
The Data Science course is designed as your entryway into one of the most cutting-edge and progressive industries of the moment, as you will learn how to read and manipulate data and how to get computers to ‘think’ by themselves.
You will learn how to read, organize and leverage the enormous amount of data generated by business interactions online. From the mathematical theory and the concepts underlying data science to practical implementations allowing you and your company to predict a system’s behavior, this course covers a comprehensive and constantly updated range of technologies.
Expect to graduate with employable skills not just in interpreting and visualizing data but in teaching computers to do that for you: the course includes a thorough induction in machine learning, an area of artificial intelligence which is one of the most rapidly-evolving fields of programming.
The course fee is generally due in advance, though payment in installments is possible on request. Please discuss the details with our admission team.

Learning how to use and interpret big data can significantly boost your career – but you don’t have to quit your job to learn.
Data Science is not only one of the most sought-after and progressive disciplines in tech, it is also among the most versatile. The skills it offers can be put to use in such fields as law, medicine, insurance, marketing, consultancy, human resources, and many more.
Your classes will last three hours on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday, complemented with a full day of teaching on Saturday. You will learn about the theory and the mathematical foundations of Data Science, and from there, progress to its practical and commercial applications. The bootcamp equips you with the precise skills necessary to interpret and exploit the data generated by business interactions online (or, to get your computer to do it for you!). A thorough induction in machine learning, a field of artificial intelligence, is also provided.
UX/UI Design offers excellent opportunities for career changers and people with a tech and/or design background alike. Anyone can learn the necessary skills and reap the benefits it brings–stable high earnings, the comforts of remote work, and a guaranteed future-proof career path.
But most people who try entering this field lack certain key skills that allow them to take on more responsibility within a company or project. That’s where UX/UI Designers often fall short–especially in the Startup world.
That’s why we created this Bootcamp. It goes much deeper and further than just learning UX or UI design. It also teaches you how to strategically manage and plan the whole design process, giving you more flexibility in the job market and a higher salary.
This Bootcamp will equip you with all the skills you need to become a ready-to-hire Digital Product Designer from scratch. It goes far beyond the theory, with a uniquely practical approach to learning that breaks with the formula of the traditional Bootcamp:
You’ll build a portfolio starting from week 1. Where other Bootcamps attempt to train you for the reality of work… we actually let you do real work. You’ll be given specific tasks each week and work together with your classmates as a Design Team. Then, you’ll get serious feedback on your work. Our junior instructors will take the role of Product Owners, your lead instructor will act as the CEO, and your classmates will be your co-workers. All feedback sessions will be set up like an honest Product Owner to Designer meeting – just like in the real world.

The goal of this 15-week full-time program is to turn you into a fully operational Full-Stack Web & App Developer. Graduates of this course typically find employment as Junior Developers within a very short time frame.
The lessons taught cover a diverse set of technologies such as HTML, CSS, Javascript, React.js, Node.js, APIs (REST, GraphQl), and databases (SQL/NoSQL).
For the first 12 weeks, you will study remotely on our virtual learning platform together with your classmates – led by professional instructors.
The big finale is your stay at our Campus Berlin – accommodation and meals included. You will live and code together with your classmates, preparing your final portfolio project. During the pandemic coming to Berlin is still recommended but optional. Alternatively, you can participate online too.

The part-time Full-Stack Web & App Development course is for anyone who wishes to expand their skills by studying in the evenings and on Saturdays. Spread over 26 weeks with 2 one-week breaks in between, workshops are held on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays from 18:30 to 21:30 (CET), and on Saturdays from 9:00 to 18:00 (CET).
Within those 26 weeks, you will learn the fundamentals of a broad range of web development technologies, including HTML, CSS, Javascript, React.js, Node.js, APIs (REST, GraphQl), and databases (SQL/NoSQL).
You can't market what you can't measure. That’s why marketing departments now need a new type of professional. And that’s where Marketing Analysts come into play. They can leverage the astonishing amount of data that modern marketing technologies can offer and combine it with their command of marketing principles to put themselves and their companies ahead of the competition.
This course goes way beyond excel spreadsheets and simple push-of-a-button software. You’ll learn all the technical disciplines needed to be a digital marketer today. More specifically, you’ll gain the skills to automate processes, create insightful dashboards, and much, much more, so you can launch more campaigns, better track results, and improve ROI quickly.

There are plenty of bootcamps these days, and curriculum-wise they more or less offer the same; so you might think at this point of your research: Why not go to Ironhack or LeWagon and just get it over with in 9 instead of 15 weeks, I will get the exact same thing in less time and potentially find a job sooner, right? Let me tell you why: Because you won’t. The curriculum at WBS Coding School is not only very carefully crafted to reflect industry needs and current trends, it also stimulates deep learning by giving you some time to reinforce concepts other bootcamps merely brush over, expecting you to just wing it or force you to work overtime at ridiculous hours - trust me, you need sleep & rest if you want to be able to recall that stuff not only 3 days, but ideally 3 years later. Here, you are not just quickly introduced to something once and then move on to a new area a couple of hours later, you will have multiple exercises that slowly build up on each other and let you constantly revisit and practise previously learned material. And when I say “slowly”, I still mean this in a bootcampy sense of the word, but not at the speed of light as is so common for many of the more fast food-ish contenders out there. Apart from the excellent learning material, the staff is also extraordinary. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming from the get-go, at no point does the experience feel like you’re getting piped through some soulless web dev factory - the teachers are knowledgable and engaged, the community manager and career service advisor make sure you have everything you need: They are always open towards criticism and try to cater to your needs wherever possible; and also set you up for the time after the bootcamp with many helpful resources and workshops that provide guidance for the job search. There is also a huge emphasis on community building, with regular guest speaker events vividly attended by students and alumni alike and a discord server with an active “help” channel you can use during and after the course. Regarding campus time, this will clearly be a highlight during non-pandemic times. Unfortunately I could not afford to stay during the whole time (Jobcenter does not account for the stay if you are a Berlin resident), but spent a couple of nights there and was allowed to attend the rest of the campus phase remotely as I wasn’t comfortable with commuting each day due to the Covid situation. The campus is amazing; and you’ll be sleeping in a very cute private room where you can also work comfortably whenever you feel like you need a bit more you-time during your final project. The whole vibe is very “summer campy” in the best sense of the word, as there are numerous entertainment mediums like table soccer, pool and console games available, not to mention having the Spreeufer directly on your doorstep. If you plan on defeating your instructor in Mario Kart to make up for them constantly defeating you in programming, you might want to brush up on these skills a little bit tho - unfortunately they are great at gaming too! I honestly cannot think of any downsides in regards of the actual “product” you get, but there is one thing that could still be improved in my opinion: With the tech industry still lacking diversity and at times even being a hostile space for women and non-binary people, I really think WBS Coding School should set an example and do a bit better concerning their hiring policy. As of right now, the dev team consists - apart from one really awesome female instructor - solely of male developers. It would be an important message towards students to try and actively change these numbers, giving a chance and a voice to those who have suffered from systemic oppression for so long. I for one, as a woman, would have loved getting insight and mentoring from a more experienced female engineer - never underestimate the power of visibility for inspiring and encouraging others! [On a more general note: I know all those bootcamps are advertised for beginners, and it’s also tempting to believe that with the amount of money one has to disburse, you simply will get a career handed back to you at the end. Well, yes and no. Don’t get me wrong, there ARE people that without much or even zero previous knowledge strive in these environments and just “get it” super quickly. But from my experience, those are to be considered unicorns, or at least something you don’t see every day, let’s say a very pretty horse. So please do yourself a favour and get some of the basics out of the way BEFORE you start a bootcamp: GET DECENT IN JAVASCRIPT BEFORE YOUR FIRST DAY. You obviously don’t have to be in expert going in there, but make sure you can write a for loop without looking up the syntax. Do some basic tutorials, do some research on MDN, and actually go and solidify this knowledge by doing some katas on codewars or eadabit. I promise you this extra-effort won’t be in vain. You will learn incredibly much either way, but going in with a solid foundation made me able to really focus on some more advanced topics and in general not being completely overwhelmed 24/7, which is not a state of mind that lets you learn and really manifest knowledge in the long run in my opinion.]

Life changing coding boot camp: experience an educational ecosystem
[1] online, and also in-person At first, I haven't considered the online coding boot camp option, but now I think it was the best option I made. The whole package what WBS Coding School offers is quite wholesome. Being 100% online, but still from the application process to graduation, what I have experienced was how 'in-person' it has been.

[1] online, and also in-person At first, I haven't considered the online coding boot camp option, but now I think it was the best option I made. The whole package what WBS Coding School offers is quite wholesome. Being 100% online, but still from the application process to graduation, what I have experienced was how 'in-person' it has been. I know it sounds paradoxical, but I have never experienced this genuine personal care at any other institute. [2] great curriculum, great instructor, great staff I started from scratch and they made me build a working full-stack web app in 15 weeks. The curriculum is evolving based on market-trends and the cohort's needs and levels. Every time I hit a brick wall, my instructor, cohort, and the staff helped me out of it. So lucky to have them. [3] career service The curriculum includes career service. It was hard to manage to update my CV or LinkedIn profiles in parallel with building the project, but now I know, it is also a part of training bc it is a slice of our daily life in the very near future. Besides, the famous Friday TALK session with tech companies, recruiters, alumni, or ppl in the industry has given me insight, inspiration, and motivation. [4] sustainability and warm-hearted community As an alumnus, I need to stand alone, but I get still 'ping' from the school for inviting the TALK session. And still, as a familiar community, we support each other intra-cohort and also cross-cohort. [5] Overall After all, it is/was a coding "boot camp", but it was also a precious experience. I wish I could write more, but my code is waiting :) Happy learning, happy coding!!!

The last 3 weeks at the WBS campus in Berlin where fantastic. You get to finally meet the people in person and work on the big last project.
I am glad for that experience. We now are definitely ready to enter the industry.

I was able to get a full stack developer job within 2 months after the class and i feel well prepared for that.

I really liked the course Digital Product Designer
I was the first Digital Product Design student. I want to say right away that this is not just a course. You have to be prepared to be fully immersed in design for the entire 15 weeks.

I was the first Digital Product Design student. I want to say right away that this is not just a course. You have to be prepared to be fully immersed in design for the entire 15 weeks. You get a small new family with which you grow and develop together. I would like to say that the course is very well thought out from beginning to end. And even if you have no experience, in the middle of the course you can already make applications or sites that can already be placed in your portfolio. You get enough knowledge to get a job as a designer after the course. Our instructor Maria really liked our group. She is an expert in her field of knowledge, and she is always happy to help her students. Even if you get stuck, she is there to help you and guide you further. If you are still choosing between different courses and have doubts, I would recommend you to choose this school because they really care about the quality of education that students receive here. Every week there is a meeting with a teacher and a camper staff member where they ask how your week went. There are also meetings with the campsite management where they ask you for feedback about the teaching and the program. They always listen to their students, and that's very nice. I definitely recommend this school to other students! The main thing you have to understand is that you have to work hard on yourself here to come to the result. Then you will succeed!

Amazing learning curve
I came to the Bootcamp to learn to use Python in Machine Learning / Data Science. I chose this course because I needed an online class, I wanted a teacher to be available, and I wanted to learn in a group. I found all this and much more during the Data Science Bootcamp at WBS Coding School. I particularly liked their emphasis on learning the concepts behind each topic. At WBS, if you want to learn it, you'll find the most welcoming and helpful support at your side.

The best part of the course is that you don't feel separated or lost even if it is online. Thanks to instructors who put a lot of effort into making things assimilate in our brains. The daily morning standups and evening checkout ensured that we were still on the right track. I started the course with very little coding experience, but I expected to get hands-on experience with real data, and I am glad that this course was the right choice. Our instructors were always available for the rescue whenever we got stuck. There were multiple carrier days, and on these days we were free from coding but had to join the brainstorming career sessions. Career-related classes enriched our profile to the best we could. In both the career days, as well as the projects from the BootCamp we were assigned, random groups. Working in those groups was another level of experience. There were surprise visits into our classrooms for feedback and update about our bootcamps by community experts at WBS Coding School. For the final project phase, I was lucky to be in Berlin because otherwise, I would have missed the quality time that I spent here. The campus is well connected with public transport (even late at night). On campus, I just had to worry about the project, no worries about cooking, and internet speed. Inviting hugs from everyone made it feel like we know us from before (so welcoming). The campus is located next to a beautiful river "Spree" which is super amazing when we take breaks between coding. Although it was really cold outside, I think I spent a few hours (all together) with my classmates and instructors. Last but not least, the BootCamp was in English.
