    Tech Elevator is for Any and Everyone

    Tech Elevator was an incredible experience. The teaching staff was incredible and it is obvious they are passionate about educating people. The support staff is also incredible, from to bottom the entire staff is always available to offer whatever support you need. One of the things that made me feel compelled to write this review, is that during my cohort I face some rather tough personal challenges. Still, I never felt that additional stress because it was obvious I had the full suppor...

    Coding boot camp

    The camp consisted of .Net, Ruby on Rails, and HTML Js.  This camp is also fullstack, meaning learning sql was a must.

    Great experience

    John and Jean truly care about each and every student in the program. They make an effort to create an inclusive learning environment and offer accommodations for anyone that needs it. I had zero experience coding before this and they were able to teach me so much in 12 weeks!

    Absolutely great

    John and the rest of the team are amazing. They demystify the coding work really fast, and got me more comfortable coding than I could really have imagined. Course load is rigorous, but they make the effort to make sure it will change your life without de-railing your life. 10/10

    Brain Kicked On!

    I received a better, quality education in 12 weeks at Academy Pittsburgh than I did in four years of going to college. I have the confidence and skill set to approach any problem with a positive mindset that I just have to keep chipping away and it will get solved.

    For anyone looking to radically transform their own life and finally feel like you belong in a learning environment, I highly recommend Academy Pittsburgh! If I could leave more than five-star ratings, I would.

    The best/scariest decision I ever made.

    I came into Academy needing to learn a new skill and start a new career path. I had absolutely no coding experience and on exiting feel confident in my abilities and excited to keep learning and growing. The instructors and TA's were the kindest, funniest, and most supportive people I could have asked for. While any boot camp experience is daunting given the speed at which they move, Jean and John have a way of guiding students that reeeeeeeeeaaaaally makes it all not only manageable, bu...

    One of the best decisions of my life

    Having gone in with zero coding experience I think this is such a great program, they teach in a way that I think anyone could learn this, I have already recommended the school to several of my friends and plan on staying involved as much as I can.
