Learn Node.js at These 325 Node.js Bootcamps

If you were like me, struggling to figure out what to do next with your life after having kids but didn't want to go back to the typical university studies (so boring) - then this bootcamp is for you. It was fun, intense, and I have learned so much in only 6 months. The way the course is built is both educational but also fun, and in no way as the typical university studies with long texts and essays and reports. Go for it :)

About me:
This section is just so that you can gauge if what I wrote below applies to your situation. I learned programming mostly on my own and only became a Codecool student because I found I needed help in getting a job. I also followed the courses of another company (Scoala Informala de IT <- would not recommend), but this was after I had a decent understanding of the Java programming language. I started learning Java at about 32 years old, and I joined Codecool when I was 36. I finished their courses in 8 months and got hired about 2 months after I finished.


The good:
- You will be surrounded by a community of people willing to help you learn how to code. I'm not talking here about the mentors necessarily (though they will definitely help you... if you set your shame aside and ACTUALLY GO ASK THEM), but about the other students.
- The curriculum is decent and, based on what I heard, it somehow got better AND shorter.
- The job guarantee, although not a guarantee per se (more about that in the next section), is real. If your attitude is not that of a jackass, you will get hired through them. This was the main selling point for me, because even though you can indeed learn to program from Udemi, that doesn't mean anyone will actually hire you.
- You will also learn how to hold presentations for your projects, a skill that, from recent experience, seems to be just as important as writing code.


The bad:
- The curriculum is a roller coaster ride to go through for somebody with no experience in programming. As people have probably already told you if you're planning on becoming a student, the course is a full time job, and you will most likely not be able to also work for the majority of the courses duration. 
- Some of the mentors attitude towards mastery based learning can degrade to "figure it out yourself" without them leading you to the right way of doing things. This statement needs more clarification, as for somebody who hasn't programmed before it probably means that the mentor should be there to help with their the majority of their problems. This is not the case though because learning how to research and troubleshoot are also things that students need to learn. I'm talking about stamping out bad solutions that would make your potential employer shake their head in disagreement if they read the code.
- The HR/marketing team will sugarcoat the contract terms heavily. Now I don't blame them, in fact I'd do the same if I were them, however I still want to point it out. If you read the contract though you will know exactly what you're getting into. The terms are not for the faint of heart. If you won't read them, you'll grieve about how horrible the service is. Either way, it's on you. For example you're not actually guaranteed a job, you're guaranteed 6 interviews, but if needed the number of interviews you're allowed to take can be increased (the way I read this paragraph from the contract is that if you're a decent human being they will help you get hired. If not, they'll provide the 6 interviews and then "bye bye". And also it helps protect against abusers who will wait for a year and not have to pay for the course. Bottom line, read the contract).

It was an enriching experience, congratulations to the bootcamp and the MINTIC of Colombia, I would like to see progress continue at the other levels, to continue my training as a future data scientist. And to search my skills in jobs plattform.

I am a career-shifter with no prior knowledge about web development. However, after joining StackTrek's Full Stack Bootcamp, I learned the basics and in-depths of programming. I'm so glad that I joined this Bootcamp. Overall, it was a challenging but fun experience. Now, I am working as a Junior Software Engineer under a company. Thank you so much, StackTrek family!

Una de las mejores experiencias de aprendizaje.
Excelente combinación de horas presenciales, material disponible en Alumni, y tareas orientativas para consolidar los conocimientos transmitidos en clase.

Sin lugar a dudas repetiría la experiencia con nuevos temas y conocimientos, y recomiendo a mi grupo de amigos que se sumen en próximas ediciones.
Un consejo, disponer de tiempo para concentrarse en estudiar e investigar, ya que en poco tiempo se ve una infinidad de temas...

This is probably the most densely packed and interesting learning experience I have had, and this is right after I completed an MBA. The instructor was great! He showed empathy as we slowly picked up concepts and is a great communicator - able explain very technical concepts in digestable ways. The TA's were knowlegeable, supportive, and easy relate with and it was great to have additional reservable TA services. In addition, the program is fully loaded with career support, from resume, linkedin and portfolio consulting, to optional weekly career related seminars. Take advantage of all this! This program will test your willingness to learn from ground zero and capacity to handle frustration during the learning process, but if you stick to it you would be amazed at how far you have come in 6 months. Goodluck :D

 

I have successfully completed my 6-month journey through Arizona State University FinTech Bootcamp! I enrolled in the program with no prior coding experience at all. My background consists of construction and about a decade of day trading experience. I was not sure what to make of the Bootcamp at first as I had never done online education before. I was not very tech savvy in general. The first day of class my instructor asked me a question, he said Why are you here? I thought about it for a second and explained I am there to change careers, I am tired of the physical labor, busting my back all day in the blistering heat. He told me to remember my why and stay focused. I knew it was going to be hard but I decided I was going to trust the process. With the support of my classmates and my amazing tutor/mentor Johnathan I took it one day at a time and little by little started to learn how to program. I became very passionate early on in the course and used that passion as motivation to learn as much as I could. It is a fast-paced course and definitely not for those that are not willing to put in the effort. For disclosure and full transparency, I put in easily 20- 30+ hours each week of outside class time to really absorb everything but I was more than willing as I was determined to learn and remembered my "why".  My Instructor Estevan and teacher assistant Derek were very informative and insightful, they offered office hours before and after class which I attended every one. They could not have been any more supportive of me throughout the entire journey. They knew my background of having No background as it relates to programming and were more than willing to match my effort and support me by answering any questions I had. I realized that the experience is what you make of it so I asked as many questions as I could think of and kept detailed notes. By asking so many questions in office hours and taking detailed notes of the problems I had I was able to start helping other classmates debug their errors in class. Helping others allowed me to instill within myself what I learned. I am proud to say I was announced as one of the Top students in the class upon completion as I maintained an A+ average and missed no classes or assignments.

Being a day trader for nearly a decade I have been keeping track of tedious statistics, manually, first on paper in a notebook then eventually in an excel spreadsheet. Early on in the Bootcamp I realized I could use my skills to automate the tedious and very time-consuming tasks that were required of me. Around the 10th week of the bootcamp, I started working on a personal project to utilize for my day trading. I decided I would implement the skills I was learning in class, putting these skills to practical use in real time really ensured I was comprehending everything. By the end of the program I completed my day trading application and currently use it on a day to day basis to help myself make trading decisions. 

I would recommend this bootcamp to anyone that has an interest in learning Python. You can 100% do it through this Bootcamp as it offers you all the support you need to thrive. You have to have the tenacity from within yourself. If you want to further your education there is no better place in my opinion. The support and staff are professional knowledgeable experts in the field with a bleeding passion which is contagious.  I enjoyed the program and would do it all over again. 

My 2 cents:

Attend office hours 

Meet with your tutor weekly

Re-watch all the recordings of the classes

Take detailed notes

Work on your own passion project

Support your classmates

Always remember your "WHY"

If you want to achieve success Arizona State University FinTech Bootcamp is highly suggested.

I have recently completed the bootcamp so I can not give a fair assessment on Job Assistance yet as it is not applicable to me currently. I can say they do offer excellent resources and provide support in preparing for the career hunt!

 

Today, after the Bootcamp is over, I can say that I was not wrong in choosing Campsite to start this new path. Not only because of everything I learned on a technical level, but also because of the human team behind it. The personalization of each class, the commitment, the time dedicated to each student, patience and positivity were the protagonists of this Bootcamp. Thank you very much to all! 100% recommended. 

 Masai is a great example that replenishes the fact, "The more you sweat on training, The less you bleed in battle". Being a student doesn't feel like a student but more like a newbie in corporates who's in his learning phase. Before joining Masai, creating a weather forecasting web application would be a nightmare for me but to be frank enough, I built the whole application in just a time-lapse of 3 hours as a part of my assignment. Hats off to the instructors, curriculum, ops team, and each person working in Masai. Masai has fulfilled my dream of being an engineer, which is too full-stack. I wish many more dreams to come true. Love ❤ Masai.

 

Преподаватели в Tel-ran настоящие профессионалы! Учился с удовольствием, каждый урок был и теоритических и практическим, здорово, что была возможность прям общаться с учителями.Их отзывчивость и терпение заслуживает отдельных аплодисментов и внимания!

This was the first data science course I have undertaken, and I must say, it was worth the while.  There is a lot to study; the coaches provide extra materials that helps you understand everything. They are also very professional and designed the course curriculum in a way that’s suitable for all students.

The projects and exercises are very realistic, and once you complete 50% of the course, you are on your way to begin learning Machine, Deep Learning, and Data Science in-depth. 

The course is well structured, with self-paced courses and tutors were hands on ground to provide all the support I needed. The tutors took their time to break down complex concepts like as descriptive and inferential statistics. You'll also get a completion certificate at the end which is a major plus when job hunting.

Wcoding is an excellent introduction to the tech-world.
Originally a marketer, I wanted to change my career and learn new skills in the wake of the Covid19.
Being a total computer-illiterate, I joined the Fullstack Intensive course after a positive impression by Kyle and Judy.

Even though the courses were not cheap, it is still much affordable than most tech bootcamps in the US or Europe.
As I am now landing an internship in an AI company, I can say the curriculum was well-done and useful. It provides good fundamentals in Front and Back-end as well as the skills in demand on the job market.

All the workers (from the founders to teachers and interns) are nice, friendly and helpful. I wish to thank them for that.
Big thumbs up for the Job Support also. The school provides a custom-made assistance for the students, sharing with them internships/job opportunities and counselling regarding their visa status.

On the other hand, it is called intensive for a reason: do not even think of joining if you are not committed.
Keep in mind learning new skills and finding a job is a very taxing process. Especially if you have zero scientific/technical background.
As far as I am concerned, it was a very stressful experience.
If that's the case, be kind to yourself. Work on your portfolio, stick around and look for internships.

To conclude, Wcoding will give you the tools, the guideline and the proper environment to start a career in the Tech Industry.
Nonetheless, you will need a lot of time and even more practice to land the job of your dreams at Google.
It is hard, but it is doable.
Now go coding.

Pros:
- Teaches useful coding languages and essential coding skills (much more effective than self-studying)
- Great team: teachers and developers will always make time to listen to you and help you work on your projects.

- Our main teacher Marie was professional and encouraging with a non non-sense attitude.
- You learn by doing.

- Sets you on track for the job market.

- Able to network with other developers.
- The school never gives up on you as long as you don't give up on yourself.

Suggestions:
-How about a slightly longer learning period ? 
-Create programs based on each student's level (beginner, faux-beginner, experienced and so on...)
-Hire more teachers
-More counselling about personal development for each student.

Boot Camp was kind of special  opportunity for me to come closer to tech world, at the start I didn’t know where to start ,how to go about it, most of my colleague’s  seems to have clues on almost every topic while my world was quite, dark and silent. Through boot camp across well dedicated team  Instructor and TA's  that really help me to overcome all this challenges  and now I see myself starting new career in the tech world. Special thanks will also go to Teacher Assistant (Jessica ) for her patient support and extra time she took to ensure I catch up with everyone God bless you. To anyone who want to join please this the right place to start the team will shape you.

I really appreciate that I found this school. The learning is systematic. Mentors are responsible. Thank you CodeX

From the moment that I begin my journey last August to working towards attaining my certification I was excited. It is not an easy decision to learn a new skill or pursue a different line of education. It is easy to know that after the hard work that you have done you can be the professional and an influence to others. I am so glad that I found this program and made the sacrifice to work hard to learn a new skill.
The hard skills that I have in data analytics were fined tuned as I moved through the Academy assignments. I have admit that I hit many roadblocks in studying but the mentor resources that are available gave me the support and confidence I needed to reassure me that I could do it. I am so appreciative of the work that the instructors, my peers and the mentors provided and I hope to be an influence and shoulder to lean on for any future student of Data Science that may need it.

I have always had interest in computers and I.T. So I thought the field of cybersecurity would be a good fit for me. The idea of cybersecurity is a fascinating one and to be a part of this community, I decided to take this course to expand my knowledge whilst getting my BSc. It hasn’t been the easiest route but nonetheless, this course made things a lot easier for me. I have learned a lot in the period I have been taking the course. 

I have learned how to work with virtual labs, work with career advisors and have completed every exercise given here. I will say it has been a ride thus far. I will advise anyone looking to build a career in cybersecurity to enroll in this course. It is pretty well made with low tuition fees to get you started on the right path. 

Code Immersives really isn't a bootcamp, It's a school and so far one of the best schools I have attended. Not only do they take everybody in mind ( from people with no experience to people with a lot of experience) but they also are just really there to provide you with industry knowledge to get you out in the job market. As an international student I was hesitant at first thinking about the whole paper work I would have to fill in but Tom my DSO and Anthony helped me every step of the way not only did they guide me through the process but once the course started were they available pretty much to answer any of my concerns. Then talking about the teachers they all come from various backgrounds in the industry and have so much knowledge about the industry standards that it is often so interesting to hear them explain concepts and see how they approach problems (shout out to my teachers Rashaan and Kelvin they really thought me so much). This doesn't take away from the fact that you will always have to put in the work to learn the concepts you see in class and to review and I guess 'do your homework'. If you are hesitant about joining a course or bootcamp then don't cause like I said code Immersives provides so much more then that. I am finishing up my last term right now and am excited to get started in the job market. If you have any questions about the course feel free to reach out to me.

Monash University Cybersecurity Bootcamp was an amazing 6 month experience, during this time we would be online 3 nights a week 6:30-9:30 and often I would need to put an extra 5-10 hours per week for the homework. The structure of the course essentially boiled down to: Introduction to a topic, followed by an activity to practice the use of said topic or research more of the topic etc. Finally at the end of each week homework would be assigned that would elaborate further on the weeks learning. So overall given a chance to embed the knowledge learned at each week. Most of the activities, if not all, were done in virtual labs and further enabled experimentation and learning. The highlight of the course for me was the instructor, Barry Anderson. Barry was a veritable library of knowledge and any time he went 'off' script, he would provide valuable information with examples. I would definitely recommend the course to anyone interested in pursuing Cyber Security. At the 3/4 mark of the course I felt confident enough to apply for a position and was hired for a role as a Cyber Security Analyst, this is with no prior certifcations/degrees or work experience prior. Thank you Barry and the TA's.

 

The bootcamp was great and just what I needed. The instructors were very knowledgable and helpful. We always got the help we needed no matter what time it was or how silly our questiones seemed to us. 
The exercises helped me undertand more about the technology and the logic required to run modern websites and how to make them compatible to older browsers. 
in short, very happy with my decision and with the course. 
Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to level up.
