    An Exceptionally Awful Bootcamp

    This Web development Bootcamp could not have been any worse.  If you are skeptical about the veracity of my extremely negative comments about Cultivating Coders along with its owner, Charles Ashley, I'd advise you to check out the Cultivating Coders website: you'll discover that Cultivating Coders lacks a basic curriculum, a syllabus, and even fails to provide a basic outline of the material to be covered in its Bootcamp.

    Beware! Cultivating Coders (Android)

    Cultivating Coders is currently in the completion phase of their Android course in Albuquerque NM. Each student spend approximately $7500.00 -7900.00 for this course.

    Charles Ashely was forewarned early on that the instructor was effectively not versed in Android technology, all the computers provided as part of the purchase totally failed in its ability to handle the software, the instructor was often absent, did not fulfill promises such as supplying comprehensive write-ups for...

    What a Joke

    I had the unfortunate opportunity of enrolling in the "Android Bootcamp."  The instructors were awful, and the entire class of students ultimately found it necessary to sign a petition, demanding that owner, Charles Ashley, provide a full refund or some explanation as to why the course was so incompetently taught.  Ultimately, Ashley blamed the students for signing up for the course.  He stated that the students came to him, rather than the other way around.

    Based upon my persona...

    Horrendously Taught Bootcamp.

    I've read the reviews authored by former Cultivating Coders' Bootcamp students/participants. And some of them make me laugh.  For example, I've read the review from former student, [retracted]. According to the review, the class "even took a field trip." What [retracted] failed to note was that the so-called field trip consisted of the instructors and students visiting a sinkhole a mere 50 yards from the campus. In my mind, this hardly counts as a "field trip." Moreover,  Cultivating Coder...

    Best decision I've made

    The best career decision I've eve made.

    This unbelieveable curriculum is fast paced but, full of much needed infromation.  Cultivating Coders has the best instructors and support.  Taking the leap and join the 8 week program has changed my life.

    For completion of the Cultivating Coders bootcamp, I learned the full stack.  In which includes; PHP, HTML5, CSS3, Bootstrap, Angular.js, Javascript, MySQL, Database Administration, Serv...

    Don't Waste your Time...

    I was in the Android Development Bootcamp that ended on the 29th of March.  All I can say is that the course poorly planned and terribly executed. I had reservations going in but I chose to believe the things Charles Ashely told us.  Ultimately he let myself and rest of the class down and this course was largely a waste of my time.

    I wish I've made this decision earlier in life.

    This was literally the best decision I've made in my entire life.  I knew what coding was, but I was not familiar with it.  Just due to the fact that I was never introduced to it.  Coding is an art, and I'm a very artistic person.  So I'm more than thankful that cultivating coders has given me the chance to and provided me an extraordinary skill set.  I only plan to extend my knownlege in coding with the help of my amazing mentor's at cultivating coders.

    Coding changed my life

    I have to admit Cultivating Coders has given me the opportunity to learn web designing and development that i couldnt in my area due to lack of financial aid and courses offered in my area especially to Native Americans. It has changed my life in such a way that i will never forget the choice i made to learn these skills that i never thought i would learn.

    It was an intense 8 weeks of coding. It was definitely fast paced but i kept up. I...

    A new beginning.

    I've really enjoyed taking the Cultivating Coders Bootcamp classes in Farmington, New Mexico. Learning about mobile and web developing curriculum has changed my life in a way that there are more opportunties than I have had before I graduated the course. I'm really thankful for this opportunity to help my family become financially stable. Also being able to take and share this knowledge of computer coding to my family members whom may be interested in the program is a true honor.
