NEXT Academy
NEXT Academy offers a 10-week Full-Stack Web Development bootcamp in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, and remote 8-week Front-End Web Development courses and 12-week Digital Marketing courses. NEXT Academy was founded by self-taught programmer and bootcamp graduate, Josh Teng. NEXT Academy partnered with the Malaysian government agency, Malaysian Global Innovation & Creative Centre (MaGIC) in 2014 - jointly officiated by U.S. President Obama, Prime Minister of Malaysia Najib Razak and Founding CEO Cheryl Yeoh who previously sold her company to Walmart Labs, to grow the tech startup ecosystem in Malaysia.
The primary goal of NEXT Academy is to equip passionate individuals to become entrepreneurs, marketers and developers — the key ingredients to get a startup running. Students learn in a hands-on style and are presented with a set of challenges to solve each day. By the end of the course, students will build a fully-functional web app.
Today, over 1,000 students have graduated from NEXT Academy and are employed with some of the biggest startups in the region including GrabTaxi, KFIT, Mindvalley, REV Asia, Business Insider, Says, and Uber. Some multinational corporations have also hired graduates from NEXT Academy as well. Ninety-nine percent (99%) of all graduates have either started their own startups or joined a company as a coder, marketer, or designer!
NEXT Academy is part of the 500 Startups' portfolio.

Deceptive marketing
Be wary of Next's deceptive marketing to lure programming enthusiast to join their overly hyped up bootcamp. The fake 5 stars reviews in a single day above pretty much sums up their ethicality.

This was painful.
I won't call this review by you unfair because clearly, you are upset and you have the right to be. In fact, I'm sorry you feel this way.
Our entire team works extremely hard to empower people. Most people we hire are extremely passionate about education. Our single goal is to empower people. Most great coders much prefer to work in a tech company than an education company. The only reason why we are here is because we want to help people achieve what they seek to accomplish.
I do, however, want to challenge your accusation on our ethical standards. We don't do fake reviews. We have graduated 300 over students and we do reach out to them for reviews. And many of them are working at great companies like AirAsia, Digi, Maxis, KFIT, Mindvalley and more. Ask them, ask their CTOs who hired them. They are truly amazing. Many of them are also building their own MVPs, taking on the entrepreneurial journey. We have students in various top regional accelerators like MaGIC, DBS, and more.

No hard feelings. I just want to buy you coffee to understand what made you this upset.
