Founded in Portugal in 2015, Code for All_ is a social impact startup that offers 14-week intensive and immersive Full Stack Programming Bootcamps. Students are guided through the course by a team of instructors who are graduates of the bootcamp. Code for All_ describes their teaching methods as "peculiar" and aimed at training students to write clean code.

Code for All_'s immersive programming bootcamps welcome beginners of all ages (over 18) and backgrounds (degree not needed) as long as they are willing to fully and passionately commit to becoming professional junior software developers within a short period of time. To apply to the bootcamps, prospective students must complete an online computer science 101 course, submit an online form, complete an online JavaScript tutorial, excel in a JavaScript code challenge, and attend online a workshop day that will be similar to the student experience during the bootcamp. 

At each campus, different financing/sponsorship solutions are available to help candidates finance the bootcamp. Terms and conditions are listed on the Code for All_ website.

Code for All_ was formerly known as <Academia de Código_>.

    Intense but worth it

    This experience was what I needed to finally switch to IT. It was really really intense and made me constantly doubt of my capacities but in the end I think it was worth it. It got me a job opportunity even before the end of the program what significantly reduced my financial anxiety. 
    I would give it two or three more weeks in order to go deeper in most of the subjects.

    AWESOME

    A very complete and very intensive course that taught me how to program and change my life. It is really very intensive and we have to want and give up if we want to get the best out of the course and learn as much as possible. The environment is amazing and conducive to learning and we have help from the beginning to the end of the bootcamp.

    Intense but incredibly rewarding

    The weeks went by crazy fast, but only because there was always something going on. Super rewarding experience, learned a lot, made good friends, and feel ready to get out there and get a job in this industry.

     Code Academy provided a learning experience with teachers who were pleasant and helpful. Overall, I found the learning aspect to be positive. However, one area where Code Academy could improve is job support, as it was lacking in that regard.Additionally, I believe that Code Academy could benefit from enhancing their job placement resources to better assist students in finding employment opportunities after completing their courses.

    Boot camp experience

    Good environment . Great team spirit and teachers. Good equipment to study and great location. 
    Would definitely do it all over again, probably with another language or more focused in another subject

    Expensive taste like a SCAM

    Too expensive for the poor service they provide. Misleading advertising, tastes like scamming. 
    Curriculum frozen for years, with no interest in developing students' skills. 
    Focused on money, they open more classes, more courses, it gets more expensive, 8000Euros, and the quality of education loses.
