Great Experience!!
I had a great experience at Coding Temple! My instructor was Nate Welter and he did an amazing job at adjusting the pace of the course so that everybody had a working understanding of the material. There really was no question he couldn't answer on the spot, and if by chance something did come up, he was very resourceful and had an answer nearly immediately (which is probably the greatest asset there is for a programmer).

There really was no question he couldn't answer on the spot, and if by chance something did come up, he was very resourceful and had an answer nearly immediately (which is probably the greatest asset there is for a programmer).
Our TA was also very helpful and would stay late after class on an individual basis if anyone felt they were falling behind (spoiler- they wouldn't be falling behind for long).
I can't personally attest to the abilities of the other instructors, but I know they're a tight knit group, and I've heard nothing but good things from students of their classes. Algo Night is offered every week to brush up on skills, and the support system for post-graduates is relentless, you will never feel left behind.
If you're looking for a bootcamp to get yourself a full-time engineering job or just want a better understanding of computer systems for your current placement, look no further. - Russell AndersonGraduate • Software Engineering Full-Stack | Full-Time Online • OnlineFeb 15, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

Derek, my instructor is one of the most brilliant people I have been around, he has extensive knowledge about all subjects covered, but he is able to show complex operations with the languages/frameworks and still explain it in a clear and concise fashion. Lucas, my teacher's assistant had a infectious enthusiasm for coding that really impressed me, and his knowledge of coding and how to communicate it was also wonderful. - Alex EvanegaStudent • Software Engineering Full-Stack | Part-Time Online • OnlineFeb 13, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

As a part time student with full time work responsibilities I was nervous about the work load and how much it would dominate life. It did not dominate whatsoever and the school is very willing to work with you and your schedule. It is not just the instructors, the staff in general is amazing, from student relations, to career counseling, to the post-grad job-search assistance, I really cant recommend this school and its staff enough!! - Austin CraigStudent • ASP.NET MVC BOOTCAMP (PART-TIME) • ChicagoFeb 03, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Student
Coding Temple is a GREAT bootcamp! They not only see you as a student but a person as well. They will work with you into to the hours of the night to help you learn new skills and processes, they make sure that you as an individual are picking up on the skills being layered in front of you, they will force you to think and problem solve, letting you make mistakes and learning from them, and most of all they care about you and your future endeavors.

My experience with coding temple.
I signed up through Career Karma, did the pre-work, and started class pretty soon after that. The classes where all online and in a class room with a Instructor teaching the days material (usually doing a code-along) then they would give us our home work, some of the work was pretty straight forward but some needed further explaining usually from a instructor or the instructor would guide you to more information via Google, W3 schools, StackOverflow, or GeeksForGeeks. They really lay down the frame work for you learn how to learn and teach your self about what you are learning.
Curriculum.
My only critique is the Curriculum. I wish the Part-time course was 14 or even 16 weeks long I fill the class could have used more time in a few of the subjects but other then that I think the Curriculum was very straight forward and was taught with precision and accuracy. My instructor Kevin Beier was qualified and over all a great guy to work with the way he tackles the Curriculum is very thorough and was a ton of help.

Awesome program.
Prior to coding temple I had no experience.
However the structors(Kevin, Alex, Devon) were able to give me the tools to get me where I am today. There's was some points where I felt lost but meeting with them helped me and got me through. I'm confident that what I have learned will benefit me in the long run and the rest of my life. Couldn't ask for a better bootcamp and instructors. - Laura D.Graduate • Software Engineering Full-Stack | Full-Time Online • ChicagoJan 28, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

I had Terrell and Ryan as instructors, and they did an amazing job breaking down and explaining every single language/concept in the program. The 10 weeks go by very quickly but there are a couple that feel to drag because of the information overload. Figuring out the best way that I learned and retained information really helped me get the most out of the program. You really do get out what you put in. Remaining curious and asking lots of questions makes a huge difference!
I would definitely recommend this program to anyone that is ready to fully immerse themselves. No matter your level of experience, Coding Temple will help you learn what you need to learn to confidently start your new career. They have so many resources and are continuously adding more to the career services program after the bootcamp. - Owen CarvillJr. Engineer • Graduate • Full-Stack Data Science + Python • ChicagoJan 25, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

I waited to do the review until I had some time in at my new position to be able to speak on how the program prepared me for my role. I can happily say that I was given the knowledge and resources to either out-right know what I was doing or know where to look if I needed guidance or documentation. I would absolutely recommend Coding Temple to anyone who wants to become a software engineer. - Jay PatelGraduate • Full-Stack Python + Data Science • OnlineJan 21, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

I graduated from the program in January 2022, and I got to say this was one of the best decisions I made. The program is very fast-paced and you learn a lot in these 10 weeks. The instructors and support staff were always available whenever I needed help. Be ready to spend 70-80 hours a week if you want to get the most out of this Bootcamp. You'll get what you put into it. I highly recommend this to anyone trying to get into the Software Engineer or Data Analytics industry. - BrieFull-Stack Python + Data Science • OnlineDec 08, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
A great way to change careers
I went into the program knowing that I wanted to perform data analysis, with some experience performing statistical analysis in an academic setting, but completely uninitiated in computer programming. I appreciated the introduction to a broad catalogue of technologies. If you're familiar with programming languages you might want more depth, but for a newbie it was a perfect introduction and I'm now confident in my ability to go deeper on my own time.

I appreciated the introduction to a broad catalogue of technologies. If you're familiar with programming languages you might want more depth, but for a newbie it was a perfect introduction and I'm now confident in my ability to go deeper on my own time.
Pros: I was introduced to a broad swath of technologies. This not only helped me narrow down my interests (data engineering), but it also made me feel more comfortable talking about programming in social and professional settings. I also appreciate the broad introduction because I developed skills I would have otherwise overlooked.
Instructors were knowledgeable and approachable.
I made great connections with my peers/classmates.
Cons: Hard to call it a con, but if you are unprepared for the pace it can be detrimental: the program moves very quickly, it's very easy to fall behind and feel overwhelmed if you don't check in with yourself and others OFTEN. - Mike KaiserFull Stack Software Engineer • Graduate • Software Engineering Full-Stack | Full-Time Online • OnlineDec 01, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Best career decision I've ever made
I wish I had made the leap sooner. Going from a small business owner, to a student preparing for nursing school, to pivoting again in light of the pandemic, I made up my mind that software development was a path with limitless opportunities if only I could get through the door. I started researching, reading reviews, and calling different companies, and everyone I spoke to sounded the same, "Our program is the best! We have over a 95% employment rate..., etc.", but most of my questions w...I wish I had made the leap sooner. Going from a small business owner, to a student preparing for nursing school, to pivoting again in light of the pandemic, I made up my mind that software development was a path with limitless opportunities if only I could get through the door. I started researching, reading reviews, and calling different companies, and everyone I spoke to sounded the same, "Our program is the best! We have over a 95% employment rate..., etc.", but most of my questions weren't answered directly and I was tired of the canned responses. I was starting to wonder if all bootcamps were like this. Then I got a call back from Coding Temple.
Ripal was sincere, had direct insight into the program, and was willing to have an honest conversation about the commitment it would take and how long it would be before I found a job (average is 3 months). His candor was what ultimately sold me on Coding Temple. He wasn't trying to sugarcoat anything, and I could tell he believed in the program. Turns out he was one of the cofounders! That conversation, along with the financing that allowed me to complete the program and likely find a job before paying anything back, gave me the confidence to step into a new career I knew nothing about, but I came away equipped with the experience to have professional conversations during my interviews and a portfolio that impressed recruiters. Marlene knew how to prepare me for the job search and put my best foot forward with my applications, and thanks to her guidance I had 2 different offers within 6 weeks and was able to start at an amazing company within 2 months of graduating. I couldn't have imagined making such a big decision and it turning out so well, and I owe it all to Coding Temple. - Joyful WandererData Analyst • Student • Software Engineering Full-Stack | Full-Time Online • OnlineNov 30, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

Full-Stack means this place teaches front-end technologies and gets you making websites, but they also show you how to make databases and programs in the back-end, and hook those together with the web interfaces. TLDR: You can get a bunch of different jobs that will use skills you learn here.
Now to the important stuff: Culture at Coding Temple is fantastic! They provide intense levels of support in the form of patient instructors, night-time AIs, career support that extends months beyond the end of the boot camp, interview training, algorithm practice, and I guess I'll end here: advice from a career advisor who is an experienced expert in her career.
I am writing this after receiving an offer for a tech job in a tech firm rated in the best places to work in Chicago, so this is not me being optimistic; Coding Temple works if you do your part.
