Why Nucamp
I want to learn more when it come to computers because I've worked IT for 6 years and now I want to evolve and grow in a new way. knowledge is key in this industry so I want to learn as much as possible and hopefully find a better job when I get out from my active duty status. 
Shad SpreiterStudent • Web Development Fundamentals • SpokaneVerified by GitHubMar 06, 2024Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/AExcellent instructors and network of students and professionals.
I am an IT professional in with minimal coding experience. My goal is to transition to becoming a Software Engineer. I have learned a lot in this web fundamentals course and looking forward to continuing my learning with Nucamp. The content taught in this course is a great value but the thing that I think is the most valuable is the connection with the other students and instructors. Networking is crucial and Nucamp provides you with a great foundation of networking.- Matthew EWingAmazon DSP • Graduate • Web Development Fundamentals • San DiegoVerified by LinkedInMar 04, 2024Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Web Dev Fundamental Graduate
I always wanted to learn code since I was getting into college and after. Just different career opportunities came along the way and I never got to it. I saw Nucamp when reserching Bootcamp's. Nucamp had really good reviews and also worked really well with my schedule as I have a full time job and a Family with 2 little ones. Even at that, I wondered if I could pull the trigger on it financially and mentally.

Just different career opportunities came along the way and I never got to it. I saw Nucamp when reserching Bootcamp's. Nucamp had really good reviews and also worked really well with my schedule as I have a full time job and a Family with 2 little ones. Even at that, I wondered if I could pull the trigger on it financially and mentally. After speaking with a counselor or recruiter, they eased my mind and Nucamp's payment otpions really are great and make it afforable witht he loan options.
Going throw the first step which was Web Development Fundamental(4 week course) was challenging since I really didn't know much about code. But, the videos, curricuelum and instructior we had really made it easier to learn from square one to the end. That being said, I still have a ton to learn and coding is no joke. There is a lot to it and I know I just scratched the surface with the Web-Dev 4 week course. I highly recommend doing this course if you have no experience in coding. It really lays the foundation down which is html. You need to know that before you go into anything else.
I'm going to the Full stack next in about 3 weeks. I fully believe I will go through the Web-Dev fundamental curriculum again to get as much practice as possible before the Full Stack starts.
What do I aspire to achieve after the Bootcamps.. the path in the coding industry is still a little unclear but I love sports and I love golf nowadays. So It would be great to get into a company such as Taylormade, Cobra, Callaway, etc.. in there web design branch. That would be the dream. I also I know that the tech industry is not going anywhere and really any path I can get my foot into will be a sustainable job and I can branch with more experience once I get my foot in the door.
I look forward to the next step in the Full Stack and can't wait to see where this journey takes me. - Chelsea johnsonStudent • PortlandVerified by LinkedInFeb 26, 2024Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

Nucamp Web Developer Fundamentals
If you are not a do-it-100%-yourself learner, Nucamp may be the cheapest yet most corporate culture simulating and personable bootcamp you may find. The course video and text content is in the process of being updated to support the latest software versions. So, some trial and error is required to get node working outside of the instructions. Though not supported, Linux users can piece together instructions from Windows and MacOS to do it on Linux. Use nvm to install node. Recommended. <...If you are not a do-it-100%-yourself learner, Nucamp may be the cheapest yet most corporate culture simulating and personable bootcamp you may find.

I've never learned so fast!
I've tried to learn to code for years, but struggled with keeping up the motivation. Nucamp has given me a structure that is flexible but keeps me accountable, and I've learned so much in the past couple of months.
The instructors are knowledgeable and so willing to see you succeed, the content is bite sized and the challenges give you enough confidence to figure out what you may not know. It's an amazing bootcamp and it's not going to bankrupt you to do it. - Kevin Mejia-VanegasStudent • New York CityVerified by LinkedInJan 05, 2024Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Not Worth It
If you like paying an exorbitant amount of money for YouTube videos this course is for you. If you want to drop out they will say you can drop out but they will continue to charge you as part of their policy. These were my adviser's exact words:
"I am sorry for the way you feel and how you perceive the experience."

This bootcamp is amazing I never thought I would be able to learn Web Development in such a short amount of time. I recommend for full time workers to set time aside to do the work and also look into whatever you are learning on the web as there is so much information. I can honestly say reading the documentation for HTML, CSS, JavaScript, React, React Nativ now I can understand what I am looking for and put it to good use. I tried to learn on my own for the past year and Nucamp has helped me to understand in such short amount of time. I highly recommend it to my family and friends, it's a good skill to have. - JenGraduate • AtlantaVerified by LinkedInDec 18, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Good foundational experience
the affordability and flexibility were my greatest decision factors. I appreciate how helpful the staff was to accommodate my particular needs as I had attempted bootcampa before but due to circumstances ended up leaving because I couldbt be as present at certain times as required. I felt my teachers were invested in us as a cohort and many took time to provide extra support as needed through the courses.
