devCodeCamp

Before devCode Camp, I had zero experience in coding. The program is challenging to say the least, however, it is absolutely do-able for all walks of life. Apart from the curriculum being so well planned and laid out, the instructors are nothing short of amazing. They are there when you need them and are ALWAYS ready to help. I even received help after hours and on the weekend, which meant the world to me. I felt like they were in my corner every step of the way. One of the most rewarding things I've completed. Thank you devCodeCamp!

I am an Electrical engineer by degree who needed to break out of the career choice and find a new field.  When looking into software programs, I reviewed a dozen before choosing devCodeCamp.  I found their curriculum to be challenging, intense, and fun!  I know what I want to do with my life at this point and that is due to the devCodeCamp program. I love coding and the 16-week program was thorough with instruction that was exceptional. The teachers were there for every step and they made sure you did your due diligence through each section of learning. Honestly, I now miss going to class! Now I'm working with the Carrer Services group at dCC and it's been very helpful and I have hopes of finding a software position soon.

 Throughout my journey at devCodeCamp I could not have been happier with the choice I made in bootcamps. The instructors treat you like family they cheer you on constantly, give you confidence when you need it and help you in  accomplishing your projects. The Career Services helps you by getting down to it!  they help you in getting everything ready to do and providing you great feedback before you go out into the wild searching for jobs! Overall This was a great  experience and I would do it again in a heart beat.

At the start of my processes it seemed like everyone and their brother had a bootcamp.  Through the application process and on-boarding the whole staff at devCodeCamp were so helpful getting you off on the right foot.  The course moves a long at a quick pace but the instructors are there to help and the office hours got me out of a jam almost every week.  The project oriented set-up of the course gives you the skills to be comfortable applying for jobs after the class and makes the course materials come alive when you see the project working.  I can not recommend this course for strongly to anyone looking to further their coding knowledge.

I am so happy I found this course. It offered everything I needed and more for a full-time working step-parent. When I began this course, I had no idea what platforms were out there or what a "Boolean" or " For Loop" even was. Now, as a recent graduate, I've created so many projects implementing those same operations without a second thought! I've gained new skills that will not only help me with my new career in coding but with life! I've learned how to use up to intermediate level Python, AWS, Django, Web Services, CSS, HTML, React js, JavaScript, and much more! The only thing I wish is that I could have attended this YEARS ago! I thank them so much for being patient, understanding, and providing great leadership throughout the complete journey of my new career.

I recently completed the devCodeCamp 24-week full-stack software developer Bootcamp, and I'm thrilled with the experience. The bootcamp provided a comprehensive curriculum that equipped me with the necessary skills to embark on a career in software development.

One of the standout aspects of devCodeCamp was the quality of the instructors. They were experienced professionals who were passionate about teaching and mentoring students. They had a deep understanding of the subject matter and were always available to answer questions and provide guidance. Their real-world insights and practical examples enhanced the learning experience, making complex concepts more understandable.

Another notable advantage of devCodeCamp was the online format. As the bootcamp was entirely online, I was able to continue working full time while pursuing this new skill. The flexibility offered by the online platform allowed me to balance my professional commitments with the rigorous curriculum. The bootcamp provided a structured schedule and utilized various interactive tools, such as video lectures, coding exercises, and live coding sessions, which facilitated an engaging and interactive learning environment.

Throughout the bootcamp, I appreciated the hands-on approach to learning. The curriculum emphasized practical application by working on real-world projects and assignments. This approach allowed me to gain valuable experience in building full-stack applications, working with different technologies, and collaborating with fellow students.

Overall, devCodeCamp's full-stack software developer bootcamp exceeded my expectations. The knowledgeable instructors, flexible online format, practical curriculum, and supportive environment made it possible for me to acquire new skills while maintaining my full-time job. I highly recommend devCodeCamp to anyone seeking a comprehensive and flexible software development bootcamp.

Hello everyone! As a recent graduate of devCodeCamp, I want to share my amazing journey of growth and learning. Coming from Omaha, NE, I was always captivated by technology's impact on our world. To enhance my skills and pursue a career in web development, I joined devCodeCamp's Full Stack Web Development Certificate program.

devCodeCamp provided a well-structured and comprehensive curriculum that kept up with industry trends. From the start, hands-on projects immersed me in real-world scenarios, allowing me to apply my knowledge practically. The instructors were not only highly knowledgeable but also approachable and supportive.

During the program, I gained proficiency in Python, Django, React.js, and other essential tools. Each project presented unique coding challenges that nurtured my creativity and problem-solving abilities. The program also equipped me with valuable skills in version control, API testing, and database management.

devCodeCamp's career services were invaluable in our transition to professionals. They offered resume and interview preparation, job search strategies, and networking opportunities. The team's guidance and industry connections helped me secure interviews and job offers. Even after graduation, they continue to support my career development.

The program also emphasized project management using Jira and deployment on AWS Amplify and Elastic Beanstalk. These experiences provided me with essential skills for agile development and deployment. I am thrilled to keep learning, exploring new technologies, and making a positive impact in the programming world.

My experience at devCodeCamp has fueled my passion for software development. The hands-on approach and real-world projects have sharpened my skills and prepared me for the industry. I am excited to embrace new challenges, contribute to innovative projects, and continue my growth in this dynamic field.

Before attending boot camp I had worked in the real estate industry. After my layoff, I decided that I needed a career switch and I was leaning towards a career as a Data Analyst. I did some research and decided on devCodeCamp. I spoke to one of their onboarding staff and she did a wonderful job assisting me in realizing that Data Analysis was the path I needed to take! She helped me through the entire process of signing up, and getting financial aid, and encouraged me since I was really nervous! I had NEVER coded or done much tech-related before!! As a student at devCodeCamp I was completely impressed at how the curriculum was laid out and the flexibility the entire course had. Each week you have lectures and demos to watch as well as written documents that explain everything and provide examples. You then get to put all of that to work in various labs, problems, and projects. Anytime you have a question you have access to the instructors via Slack and they will be there quickly to help you out! The instructors give you feedback using modern tools such as a recording of themselves explaining the issue you are having, or they hop into a Zoom meeting with you. They can even port into your computer and work on a solution together with you!!! If you are considering enrolling, do your research, read the reviews and I feel that you will reach the same conclusion that I did! devCodeCamp has been an awesome experience and I am very happy with the results! They were able to take someone like me who has never coded before, and teach them how to code, go through the whole process as a Data Analyst and complete many projects and end up with a 4.0 at graduation!! When you graduate, they also have Career Services who will guide you through writing your resume, LinkedIn, and any other tools to help you be successful in finding your first tech job!! The instructors and staff at devCodeCamp are very professional, kind, supportive, and amazing at what they do!!! I can't recommend them enough!! I now have a bright future ahead of me, being able to do something I love and having complete confidence in knowing that I will be successful because of the knowledge and skills I have learned at devCodeCamp.!! 

I started at devCodeCamp during the last few months of my sixth year teaching public school music--May of 2022. The teaching profession had changed pretty dramatically with the outbreak of covid, and as result, I began looking for better ways to provide for my wife and two children. When I started the bootcamp I was teaching, coordinating concerts, making lesson plans and carving out as much time as possible for Python and JavaScript. After a lot of research and soul searching, I made the decision to go with devCodeCamp for a few reasons: 1) They had the most flexible timeline for completion out of all the camps I looked at. 2) Their price was quite reasonable, relative to other camps I had looked at.3) They had a thorough and rigorous curriculum--including a devOps unit to help get projects deployed--many other camps didn’t offer devOps. 4) They had great reviews and great employment outcomes.
As a graduate now looking back, I genuinely feel devCodeCamp was the right place for me. The content was challenging, rigorous and overwhelming at times, but every week I would get on a call with my instructors and they would help me untie the knots I inadvertently put in my code and get me back on the right track. I even received support on several occasions on weekends even though instructors had no obligation to help me till Monday. They were/are invested in their students. 
I was also extremely grateful for the flexible timeline that allowed me to continue to provide for my family and to learn at a pace that worked best for me. Sometimes I finished the unit and the assignments but felt that my grasp of the content was still somewhat nebulous so I would spend another week or so on that content cleaning up the code or doing the bonus project to make sure I really understood the content and was actually ready to move on to the next set of concepts. This flexibility combined with my instructors willingness to meet me where I was made a huge difference for me. 
In addition, building my capstone--a meal planning grocery list app--was probably the most fulfilling and challenging part of the experience. The process of sending a proposal, writing user stories, using a kanban workflow, and receiving weekly accountability really helped to set me up for success. I came away from the experience excited to build more applications and add more functionality to the one I had just built. My wife and I actually use my app for our grocery bi-weekly shopping.    The career services unit has likewise been excellent. I landed a job as a QA early on in the bootcamp by networking, but I am still working toward landing a coding job and there are numerous things I wouldn’t have known about resumes, cover letters or LinkedIn if not for the well made content they provided. 
The few cons I can think of with devCodeCamp are that some of the video lectures are long and somewhat abstract until after you have done the project. You may want to either watch them after completing the assignments or review them after completing the projects so the information has more meaning. There may also be times where your instructor won’t know how to solve a problem or says not to worry about an error message because the overall application still works. My advice with that is to take such times as a challenge to dig deeper and learn something new about the software that even your instructor doesn’t know.  
Changing careers and learning to code is not for the faint of heart, but if you are sure you like coding, feel ready to be humbled, and are genuinely committed, devCodeCamp is a great place to do it.
