The Best Zurich Coding Bootcamps Of 2024

I chose the bootcamp at Constructor Academy for two main reasons: First, their emphasis on modern web technologies such as Javascript/React, Python/Django, Docker, and Gitlab CI; and second, its location in Zürich West, a dynamic part of modern Zurich that I was already familiar with from previous job experiences.

After spending several years in digital product management and leading teams of software engineers, UX designers, and product owners, I wanted to pivot and transition into a software engineering role myself. Undoubtedly, my prior experience in website development, experimentation with web technologies, and close collaboration with software engineers facilitated my engagement with the rigorous curriculum. I particularly appreciated the integration of lectures and hands-on exercises. Learning new concepts in the mornings and immediately applying them in practical exercises in the afternoons provided a sense of daily achievement and steady progress. The most rewarding aspect of the bootcamp was undoubtedly the group assignments, especially the final project (capstone project), where we honed our teamwork skills and successfully developed a nearly functional product from inception to completion in just three weeks. Additionally, the vibrant learning environment at the Zurich campus and the opportunity to connect with individuals from diverse backgrounds who shared a common passion added immense value to the experience.

The bootcamp played an important role in finding a software engineering position at one of Switzerland's leading universities a few weeks later. I am grateful for the invaluable experience gained at Constructor Academy.

I signed up for the Part Time Data Science and AI bootcamp at Le Wagon London not really knowing what to expect. I'm happy to say they have cultivated a really friendly and support environment. I particularly enjoyed the final month where we pitched a project idea, built a product and then demoed it to the rest of the cohort. It was a great experience to tie together all the skills acquired in the previous 5 months and build a working product with a team.
Thanks Le Wagon London!

This course took me on an exhilarating coding journey, where learning became a thrilling adventure through hands-on, real-world projects that made programming both engaging and enjoyable. Through this course i learned how to adequately program applications with the use of C#, SQL databases and ASP.NET Frameworks.
