Overall the course was extremely rewarding. Only do it if you’re ready to commit the next 6-months of you life to programming. It will break you but you will come out with such a strong understanding of industry standard web development. Couldn’t recommend more highly of it.- Benjamin WGraduate • Web Development Bootcamp - Accelerated • BrisbaneFeb 10, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Excellent Bootcamp
Im just submitting my final assignment before I start the internship at the end of this bootcamp and I'm quite happy with the course.
The educators put in more time to make sure you understand everything than you might expect. But you will still need to be a self directed learner and learn quickly how to efficiently use google to solve problems.

Data Analysis with Python
Enrolling for 'Data Analysis with Python' short course was a great decision. The course was amazing and very well delivered.
Above all, the instructor was great with a solid command over the subject. Thank you Coder Academy!!! - Luisa ZiccarelliStudent • Web Development Bootcamp - Accelerated • SydneyDec 19, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

I am a career changer and within 6 months of completing the bootcamp I achieved my goal of changing industries. I had zero coding experience and came out of it knowing all of the most relevant tech stacks in industry. The educators are very knowledgable, patient, and supportive. I thought about quitting many times but the educators supported me the whole way through and I am so thankful.

A great course to career change!
I finished the Fast Track course last week feeling motivated to walk into my internship and contribute to a real-world project. The course is great for those who are interested in web development and who want to learn the building blocks for logical thinking in coding as taught through Coder Academy’s computer science fundamentals class. I’d recommend this course to anyone interested in career changing to web development. - Stanley HuangGraduate • Web Development Bootcamp - Accelerated • MelbourneFeb 07, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Be the best that you can be
It's an excellent education institution that bridges the gap between a novice to a junior software engineer. The educators Harrison, Ryan, Roddy and Anhar at the academy are supportive and knowledgeable.

You only get out what you put in
The well-known quote: 'you only get out what you put in' describes the experience at Coder Academy perfectly.
I studied the Fast Track course at Coder Academy in the August 2019 - February 2020 cohort. The course was intense, but for those who put in the work each week, the pace of learning was incredible. I have never learned so fast in my life. - NinaStudent • SydneyFeb 07, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Fast Track programme
There was balance between the depth and breadth of covered topics. We learned modern technologies close enough to be able to learn patterns, which we can then see and apply in other areas. And this is great, because this is what university education is expected to do.
The teachers and staff were great! - EllieFeb 07, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

Fast Track Sydney
As a recent grad of Coder Academy Sydney I can attest to the great reputation and reviews the course has. It has been influential on changing my study process, and has opened me up to a new world of learning and opportunity.
The course can be quite intense, and the immersion of a full 9-5 week coding is a great method of getting students in a mindframe of learning large amounts of content in a short period. There is a heavy emphasis on networking and industry skills, as w...
As a recent grad of Coder Academy Sydney I can attest to the great reputation and reviews the course has. It has been influential on changing my study process, and has opened me up to a new world of learning and opportunity.
The course can be quite intense, and the immersion of a full 9-5 week coding is a great method of getting students in a mindframe of learning large amounts of content in a short period. There is a heavy emphasis on networking and industry skills, as well as a constantly updated curriculum ensuring you are studying the latest industry standards, which I believe is a great asset not afforded to traditional university students.
The internship at the end of the course is also both a great motivating factor during study, as well as an invaluable opportunity to get your foot in the door of industry and continue your learning in a supportive environment.

How do you get a job after coding bootcamp if you have no relevant, real-world work experience? Only 1.4% of bootcampers have worked as developers in the past, but most career-changers have little – if any– client experience when they start looking for a developer job. Some bootcamps help students overcome this hurdle by offering opportunities to work for the bootcamp itself, or with rea...

We’ve all seen the statistics, and the verdict is clear: women are vastly underrepresented in technical fields. While women are the leading adopters of technology, the software development industry is only made up of 20% women.
