But when I discovered software development, I instantly fell in love with it. I love the tech industry, how versatile is and how you can constantly grow and learn.I wanted to learn to code because is one of the most useful skills of the 21st century . I think this industry will open many opportunities for me.I started self-learning, and I did some online courses but I was a bit stuck. I knew the syntax, how does it work and the basic programming concepts, but I didn’t know how to build a project from scratch, so I needed some help.After I have completed some online courses I had 2 choices , do I want to go back to school for another 4 years to get a computer since degree or do I want to go to a coding bootcamp. I definitely didn’t want to go back to school for another 4 years.One of the things I was really worried about was, I will be taken seriously if i don’t have a computer science degree, and I have thought about it for a while, I have spoke with a lot of people and I quickly realized that there are so many people in this industry who come from so many different paths of life. Obviously a computer science is still currently the most popular way to become a software developer but definitely it’s not the only way.So I decided to join Le Wagon, an international coding bootcamp. I did a full time course in China, it was very intensive and very challenging but I love the teachers, the set up, the whole course material, the teaching style of the teachers. Le wagon really gives you the support to become a real software engineer. After I have finished Le wagon course I was able to develop a project from scratch, to deploy it to production and I was confident I can handle a developer position. After one month I got my first job as a developer in a company with more than 3000 employees and more than 600 engineers.The most interesting part is that, after I completed the 9 weeks with Le wagon I am still learning with them. You have the course material and anytime you can rewatch a lecture, their teachers offer you support when you are stuck at your job. I feel that they are always there for me. To join Le wagon was the best decision I have ever made. My life changed radically and I really appreciate what they have done for me. I highly recommend it!- JulianGraduate • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • MadridJul 15, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Le Wagon: Amazing experience !
Before joining Le Wagon, I was working into logistics field. I had a lot responsibilities (which I liked) and a good salary but I always felt like something was missing. A friend told me about programming, how great and interesting it was so I did some online courses to know a bit more about it.Seeing all the possibilities that it could offer, I was really tempted to give it a try.

I had a lot responsibilities (which I liked) and a good salary but I always felt like something was missing. A friend told me about programming, how great and interesting it was so I did some online courses to know a bit more about it.Seeing all the possibilities that it could offer, I was really tempted to give it a try. Obviously, I hesitated a while before leaving my comfort zone but finally I took the plunge and applied for Le Wagon Web Development bootcamp in Madrid.
Two weeks after finishing the bootcamp, I believe this was one of the best decisions I ever made. One thing for sure, this experience is certainly one of the most challenging thing I have ever done. The students need to be very committed in order to really take advantage of it. The teachers and assistants take the time to explain and they support you through the whole process. The program is really well structured and it's a great thing for people who never coded before (like me). A lot of people who did the bootcamp said it but I have to admit that it's quite amazing the quantity of knowledge you can get in so short period of time. Also, you have the occasion to meet many great people from different backgrounds and countries. After the 9 weeks of intense coding, we had a « career week » where you can learn different tips from different people on how to get into the web development market.
Now, I am looking for a job where I can apply what I learned. Another great point is that you have access to a huge amount of information and platforms to support you (not to mention you have a lifetime access to the Le Wagon community). All I can say is that if you are considering changing you career path and becoming a developer, the bootcamp of Le Wagon is certainly the best way to start your journey! - Joao ClameGraduate • Data Science & AI Bootcamp - Full-time • LisbonJul 15, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

You get to learn all the building blocks needed to become a Data Analysit, Data Scientist or Data Engineer. YOu also get to participate in a group project at the end of the course where you get to implement all the skills you learnt throughout. For my project, we developed a news article aggrigator that predicted if the article you are looking at is more or less positive than others with the same topic. It was super fun and a great learning experience!
I reccomend this course for anyone that wants to get started in this area in as little time as possible! - MarshallGraduate • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • ShenzhenJul 13, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Best coding bootcamp in China
The Program is overall good, the course material is in a very structured way. And it basically taught the whole developing process if you wanna build a project by your own which is very practical! And the instructor and staff are really nice, we also have some fun during the learning journey. If you are in ShenZhen or Shanghai, you wanna change your career path, Le Wagon china will be a very good fit. - Mariana SaavedraJunior Full Stack Developer • Graduate • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • LisbonJul 13, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

It took me a while to decide to do the Bootcamp, but once I was there, the only regret I had was not doing it sooner! I decided to do Le Wagon's Bootcamp in Lisbon because I wanted to know how everything worked behind the digital world scenes and to be independent with what I could create with this knowledge.

Spoiler alert! I’ve got what I asked for and much more. The course is very demanding, so make sure you have the time to dedicate your full attention to it, but the rewards are totally worth it! The curriculum is broad and relevant and their teaching methodology is going to challenge you and push you to progress each day. The best part is that you’ll always feel supported. I think the community at Le Wagon’s Lisbon was what kept me going, the teachers are incredibly knowledgeable and talented and the staff is so supportive and kind. My teammates are also such legends, I’m really thankful that I’m now part of this community for life. Yes, you’ll have lifetime access to all the course curriculum (and its updates), career resources, and an extensive slack alumni/teachers community. If you’re like me and you’re looking for an accelerated transition into the tech industry my advice is to just do it. - Danny CardosoStudent • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • ParisJul 13, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
A rewarding traning
Le Wagon was a very rewarding training. More than a classic training in Web development, we acquire knowledge but also methods of analysis and work. The teachers know how to explain and make you understand the exercises, the lessons, the life on the boot camp and especially the life after the training because they were in our shoes a few months/years before. This is what makes Le Wagon a complete and inspiring training for all students. I now feel able to continue learning on my own and ...Le Wagon was a very rewarding training.

Excellent and comprehensive learning experience
The course was incredibly well structured and I felt everything I learned was relevant, no time was wasted. You need to give the course your full attention as it is very fast-paced and intense but the pay-offs are huge—you also learn how and where to learn more and this sets you up really well for development roles in an industry that is ever-changing.

Over a period of 9 very intensive weeks, the structure of the bootcamp is designed for you to understand all the relevant information to become successful in the data science field with the help of amazing teachers and TAs. I also have the chance to access all the lectures after the bootcamp finished, which becomes extremely useful when preparing for interviews, working on my final project and building my portfolio.
Le Wagon has a huge alumni network where everyone is open to help with your code, job offers or just to have a chat. However, if you don’t feel confident enough at the end of the course to start networking, Careers Week gives you all the information to excel while networking, looking for a job or becoming an entrepreneur. I highly recommend it! - DanielDesigner • Graduate • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • AmsterdamJul 05, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Learning to code from scratch
After working as an industrial designer for the last 5 years I decided I want to dive into the path of digital products. I signed up for Le Wagon because I knew it would be the best way to dive into the business and expand my skills by learning how to design and develop web apps. The boot camp exceeded my expectations by far, with tons of knowledge but also the best vibes with the Le Wagon team and my batch group. - Marilou PineraGraduate • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • AmsterdamJul 03, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

I was in batch 626, I would say it is an intensive 9 weeks, it was hard for me for the first 3 weeks because I am a complete beginner but with the support of my TA's and my batchmates I became comfortable with coding. TA's at Le wagon are really great very profesional and friendly at the same time, they made me feel that I belong and that I will succeed. I trusted their system. Even though it's remote, i didn't feel alone and far, I learned to trust my self, my batchmates are the best as well, we always start our day talking to each other laughing and do silly things on camera, it feels like we've known each other for a long time. The schedules, the program, everything is just great, well planned and systematic. I learned a lot, from soft skills to technical skills. I am greatful that I joined Le Wagon and took the risk. I am so proud that I became a part of this Family. I definitely recommend Le Wagon to anyone who plans in changing their career. - SaskiaGraduate • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • ParisJul 01, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
An incredible experience
After two years working as a wine merchant specialized in craft beer and a sanitary crisis during which I couldn’t practice my job, I decided to change career.
I had not turned on my computer for a year, yet I wanted to learn to how to code. I had heard about Le Wagon several times and the bootcamp format; short but intense, particularly appealed to me, so when I learned that in addition to a fullstack training, we would have yoga classes, my choice was made.

I had heard about Le Wagon several times and the bootcamp format; short but intense, particularly appealed to me, so when I learned that in addition to a fullstack training, we would have yoga classes, my choice was made.
More seriously, I can only recommend the web dev bootcamp, and even Le Wagon in general, the pedagogy, the patience, the collaboration and the kindness are part of their philosophy. The program and the tools at our disposal are incredibly qualitative.
Also, the recruitment work for the bootcamp gives rise, to my great surprise, to extremely heterogeneous and equal batches; the diversity of the profiles brings a richness and a true complementarity, driving the projects and the work in pairs. All in all, I think we would have done well to spend another month just for the atmosphere and the teaching team.
