It was challenging but in a nice way because of the motivating and community-like environment that the professors and TAs created. I truly lived an amazing experience along with inspiring and interesting people and would recommend it to anyone that shares my goals.

Great!
I can assure you that this course is amazing! I learned to code in 9 weeks and it was really because of the quality of the structure and teachers. Thanks you Le Wagon! - JoshGraduate • Data Science & AI Bootcamp - Full-time • LondonJan 07, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Intense, but so rewarding!
Before enrolling at Le Wagon I had just finished a Politics degree, but was struggling to find a job and wanted to get into a more hands-on role. The best thing about the course was having 1-to-1 support always at hand, no matter how large or small my problem was. It was an intense 9 weeks, but I'm amazed at what we were all able to produce in a such a short time. I'm now searching for Junior Data Science/Analyst roles, and still receiving lots of support from the Le Wagon team! - Thomas Giannetti-FakhouryGraduate • Data Science & AI Bootcamp - Full-time • LondonJan 05, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

Learnt more technical skills in 9 weeks than the past 10 years of my life!
I joined Le Wagon after 5 years of working as a Project Administrator for architectural and interior design studios, ultimately looking to gain technical skills and change career path. The bootcamp was a pretty intense 9-weeks, but it’s truly surprising how much I managed to learn in that time. I had great classmates, and the buddy system meant we were all in it together. This was comforting, and also prepared us nicely for teamwork during the project weeks.

The bootcamp was a pretty intense 9-weeks, but it’s truly surprising how much I managed to learn in that time. I had great classmates, and the buddy system meant we were all in it together. This was comforting, and also prepared us nicely for teamwork during the project weeks. After many weeks not being sure if I was even getting it, the highlight for me was AirBnb week where we built Tropic Like it’s Hot. All those weeks of learning finally clicked and came together and it was so rewarding to present our first finished project. The teachers and TA’s at Le Wagon were amazing! Always patient and available to help. No matter how bad at coding I thought I was, I always felt that the TA’s were supportive, reassuring and welcomed all types of questions. The bootcamp would have been very different if it weren’t for such a great team. Since the bootcamp, opportunities have already presented themselves and I’m working a project with one of my TA’s and two of my classmates. I’m also looking forward to returning to Le Wagon as a TA in January. For anyone on the fence about enrolling, do it. It’s such a rewarding experience and challenge, but most importantly you come away with the skills you need to change and advance your career. - Miles TomlinsonData lead • Graduate • Data Science & AI Bootcamp - Full-time • LondonDec 19, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

After leaving, I was searching for a way to pick up the breadth of knowledge and confidence you really need to advance in the world of data science, and help me be successful in future product management or data leadership roles. A good friend of mine was thinking about enrolling on the Le Wagon web development bootcamp and put it on my radar. I was intrigued about the possibility of picking up so many technical skills in a short space of time, and was excited to do that learning in a fun, collaborative and start-up-style way. The experience did not disappoint. This was by far one of the best choices I’ve made. Other than the expected, obvious plus of gaining expert-level knowledge, the best thing about Le Wagon is the dedication of the teaching team and the way that inspires all students to keep learning, get better and support each other, especially during the tricky parts of the curriculum. The Le Wagon network, alumni platform and hands-on careers support are the things I’m now really going to appreciate as I try to land my next role. - Areeb BhailaStrategy Consultant at Strategy& • Student • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • LondonDec 19, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Practical learning done well!

Over the course of the next 9 weeks we built applications everday from building a simple game of blackjack to a mobile app that helps those with chronic conditions manage their health for my final project.

The Le Wagon ethos of learning by doing, working on challenges with the buddy system and having ex-students teach the course has meant that I have gone from someone who knew no code to building my own mini-projects post-bootcamp.

That being said, I decided to join Le Wagon to gain a set of technical skills that complement my current knowledge and allow me to grow professionally. Throughout my journey at Le Wagon, I’ve come to realize how fast-paced and challenging it could be. However, its well-defined culture creates a very pleasant environment with a lot of support from TAs, a buddy-system that helps students meet, support and push each other daily. From learning the basics of a language to building two websites from scratch in just 9 weeks and meeting plenty of amazing people, I recommend Le Wagon to all those wishing to learn how to code in an efficient way and all by having fun! - Diana PinonGraduate • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • Mexico CityDec 17, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Mexico 483
I am an Industrial Engineer and have a few years of experience in Supply Chain Management. Before joining Le Wagon, I'd been a management consultant for a bit over 2 years, but I felt like I was stuck and I really wanted to learn to code since it was an interest of mine for a very long time.

Before joining Le Wagon, I'd been a management consultant for a bit over 2 years, but I felt like I was stuck and I really wanted to learn to code since it was an interest of mine for a very long time.
Like many, I did my research to find the best coding bootcamp out there. I was working in the US so I started looking based on my location, but nothing really stood out to me and everything was crazy expensive; I know it's an investment for the future, but I wasn't ready to part with over $10k (USD). Then I came across a bunch of outstanding reviews for Le Wagon and it got me curious, so I went on their website and saw that they were running hybrid courses at half the cost of other options, so it didn't even matter that they don't have a campus in the US. I applied for the full-stack web development option and Andrea Bazán, the Mexico campus driver, interviewed me. She told me about her experience with the bootcamp and how it really changed her life, I was sold even before hearing all of the great things she had to say about it.
I took a break from my job and enrolled in the full-time batch because I wanted to give it my undivided attention. I was 1 of the 19 students in batch 483 based out of Mexico City, but I chose the remote option and I took it from my hometown. I was a little hesitant about the hybrid format because some students were on campus and others were remote, but I really didn't feel like it was a problem at all. My batch was quite international, we had a mix of nationalities but we all used English to communicate.
The full-time bootcamp lasts only 9 weeks and it's packed with a lot of material you need to digest quickly. I knew next to nothing about coding, so I feel like some lessons should've been a bit longer, but you also have to play your part in the learning experience and put in your best efforts to grasp everything that is coming your way. The teachers and the teacher assistants are amazing and really help out throughout the entire process, and so do the other members of the Mexico campus staff. The rest of the students were also incredible and I felt like all of us got along and worked great together, which made the experience even better. Everything moved so fast and in the blink of an eye, I was already creating web applications with my team. It is truly unbelievable what we achieved in so little time. After the course is done they even have Career Week, in our case they brought some very interesting people to talk to us about several topics that will be useful for our future as developers or as entrepreneurs.
Overall I think it was an invaluable experience and I do feel that the Le Wagon system works. I'm not sure if I will get my dream job as a developer right away, but I do feel equipped enough to start looking and continue to learn even more in the process.
I recommend this experience to anyone who wants to get into the coding world. - Ann-SophieGraduate • LondonDec 16, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
