I was a skeptic, I already had my share of code courses and never was afraid to spend full days studying , even then the time I most evolved in coding was through Le Wagon Bootcamp, Teachers and community always there to assist you, an opportunity to work in heterogeneous group, bump your heads and solve problems, why learning end to end development, to the way you think the product until you delivers it, this was a awesome experience.- Alexis LenoirStudent • Rio de JaneiroVerified by LinkedInJun 30, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Batch #354
I am a former engineer in Urban System who always was attracted by IT. I decided to do Le Wagon bootcamp (part-time 24 weeks) in 2020 and it was a wonderfull experience. In addition to the many technical skills I have acquired allowing me, today, to create Web applications from Scratch, this training made me discover new ways of working and a world full of opportunities and possibilities that I can't wait to explore ! - Aurian Guerard des LauriersFullStack Web Developer • Graduate • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • ParisVerified by LinkedInJun 27, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
A milestone in my Carreer
Looking back one year after finishing Le Wagon I can honnestly say that it was one of the best decision I ever made. I wanted to be a web developer and Le Wagon was exactly the kick start I needed. It felt like taking the highway without speed limit. Nevertheless, it's not magical, but nothing is. Not for you if you're lazy, not for you if you are a complete stranger to a computer.
The unexpected value was for me the amazing network you are gonna be part of as an alumni. - MathiasFreelance Web Developer • Graduate • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • ParisVerified by LinkedInJun 26, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Le Wagon made my career change possible.
After completing a master’s degree in business administration, I worked as a Product Marketing Manager in a tech company for three years. During that time, I worked closely with the company’s developers to build websites. Despite being a techie, I sometimes felt hindered by my inability to 'speak the language' with the tech teams. That’s why I first decided to learn how to code.

After attending Le Wagon in Paris, I realized that coding could be something more than just better communication with developers, because I could be a developer myself! Le Wagon gave me the keys to start a new career as a web developer and create amazing websites and applications. - ThomasCEO @ barnabe.io • Graduate • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • ParisVerified by LinkedInJun 24, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A

I overall had an amazing time at Le Wagon. First, teachers and teaching assistants were very professional and always there to make sure each subject is properly understood by the students. They try very hard (and with success I must admit) to answer every possible questions you may have. Then you have that sense of community building up throughout the duration of the course.

Because you get to meet almost every other students thanks to the buddy system they have in place. Basically you randomly get a new partner every single day to spend the day with, help each other on challenging exercises. You literally have access to all almunis should you have any questions and that is great too ! The only regret I may have is that time just flies like crazy there. I had such a fun time that 9 weeks felt like a few days. - Sophie LejeuneProduct Developer • Student • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • MelbourneVerified by LinkedInJun 18, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

I'd say that the only negative point would be that we don't learn the most "used" language. Ruby on Rails is very practical to create your own apps but it's not the most common language that digital agencies are using to create websites ... - KatsuStudent • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • TokyoVerified by LinkedInJun 18, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Best Bootcamp!!
I attended the Le Wagon Tokyo batch#394. That was definitely great experience.
Lectures are very well made. Every teachers were knowledgeable and always there to support us.
Of course, you should pre-study as much as you can. More you prepare, further you can go during the bootcamp.
If you're thinking of joining Le Wagon, go for it!

The Hype is
When I first made the decision to change my career and pursue web development, I had a skeptical attitude towards Le Wagon (and bootcamps in general). I wondered, "Can't I just learn everything on my own online? And how is it possible that Le Wagon can have a nearly perfect rating online?" Still, I took the plunge and registered, and I'm so glad that I did. In fact, my only regret is I wish I would have gone through Le Wagon's program sooner in my life.

Still, I took the plunge and registered, and I'm so glad that I did. In fact, my only regret is I wish I would have gone through Le Wagon's program sooner in my life.
Each day during the bootcamp is long, and the pace is intense as there are lectures and coding challenges each and every day. At the same time, the program was extremely enjoyable. The curriculum is very well organized and gives you everything you need to develop and make progress as a developer. The coding challenges are well thought out, and they do a great job of reinforcing the lessons from that day's lecture. And finally, I can't say enough about the quality of the teachers. Not only are they extremely skilled at programming, and not only are they are excellent communicators who actually try to teach in a way that's clear and engaging, they are also great people who are really professional, patient, and fun.
I mentioned above that I used to wonder how Le Wagon can have a nearly perfect rating online. But now that I've gone through their program, I can safely say that Le Wagon's rating is very well-deserved. - Julien ColombainSoftware Engineer • Graduate • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • ParisVerified by LinkedInJun 15, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

On top of that, I learned a few design and project management skills as well. Comparing to my master's degree in Software Engineering, I would say Le Wagon's coding bootcamp is equivalent to 2 years of study in the field. The teachers are excellent, the courses really well designed. I would definitely recommend it to anyone that wants to learn how to code. - BarisGraduate • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • TokyoVerified by LinkedInJun 13, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

I graduated one of the popular universities in Japan with B.A. and got government related job for my first career. After that, I became a recruiter and developed my career in HR and recruitment industry. In my life, everything was always competitive like getting into a good university, getting a job at a famous company, and being a top sales at my work place... but I always knew that I don't have a proven skill which I can show off to people in a different environment. I wanted to have a skill which I can keep improving in my life. This is why I chose to learn coding and Le Wagon.
First, everything was so new to me and I struggled a lot with understanding the whole concept of programming language. The course was intense but one day I realized myself that I was enjoying coding from the bottom of my heart. There are many ways to learn programming in this society, but I still strongly recommend Le Wagon as there are awesome teachers who dedicate themselves to support and motivate students. I was always the one asking teachers a question but all of them are very supportive and I could finally manage finishing the course with my own web app.
I can't imagine myself now without having this amazing experience at Le Wagon and I really want to tell myself in the past that I made a great decision to join Le Wagon. I now want to keep coding and improving my skill and tell people around me that everything started from the first day at Le Wagon.
