The Tech Academy
The Tech Academy is a trade school headquartered in Portland, Oregon that offers full-time and part-time bootcamps online and in-person at their Portland campus. The Tech Academy offers part-time and full-time bootcamps in computer programming, website development, cybersecurity, game development, mobile development, data science, front-end development, tech marketing, and tech sales. The immersive experience aims to create well-rounded technology professionals, and also gives students the option to take the course at their own pace. There are also no set starts dates or rigid scheduling. Students can enroll at any time, study from home, and choose whatever study schedule they would like.
The Tech Academy’s bootcamps cover topics including computer science fundamentals, programming basics, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, SQL, C#, Python, Bootstrap, jQuery, React.js, project management, Agile, Scrum, MVC, version control, Java, and more. Each bootcamp also includes a Live Project, where students gain real-life experience to add to their resume as well as job placement assistance.
None of The Tech Academy's bootcamps require any tech background or experience. To apply, applicants need to take an IQ test with logic-based questions (to ensure applicants can read, write and perform basic math), followed by an admissions interview.
The final part of every The Tech Academy bootcamp is the Job Placement Course which covers interviewing skills, resume writing, where to find tech jobs, and gives students access to job placement staff who assist students in landing technical positions.

Overall, my experience with The Tech Academy was very positive. Even though I was studying remotely, they did an excellent job at providing a cohesive course of study that built on itself, got incrementally more difficult, and gave me the skills required to land my first job as a junior developer.
One of my main reasons for choosing The Tech Academy was that they have flexible start dates and allow you to work on your own schedule, they indeed were very understanding when life got in the way of my studies.
While they provide you with a multitude of resources and a logical order to complete things in, they do not hold your hand all the way through the process. They intentionally force you to practice your google fu and try to figure things out on your own, but the instructors are friendly and helpful when you need them. With that said, you will only get out as much as you put in.
The Live Project and Job Placement courses were essential for finding a job after completing the bootcamp. The Live Project provides valuable experience to put on your resume while also building your confidence by giving you an opportunity to apply the skills you've been working on and learn some new skills. The job placement course is also extremely thorough and provides information on all parts of the job hunting process. The instructors also provide critiques of your resume, cover letter, github, linkedIn, and personal website to make sure you're putting your best foot forward when applying to jobs.
The Tech Academy is perfect for anyone who is extremely self-motivated and looking to make a quick career change while studying on their own schedule.

The Tech Academy was just the right bootcamp I was looking for. It allowed me to start as a remote student, and then study locally when I moved to Portland. It also taught me how to be a self-motivated learner and enabled me to develop problem-solving skills. In addition to teaching coding knowledge, the school also teaches students how to look for answers and approach problems on their own. Instructors are always available and willing to help, but they also guide students and teach them how to solve problems, rather than giving out answers right away.
The curriculum was very well-rounded and I was able to explore the different areas of fullstack development, from HTML and CSS, to C# and Python. This was someone with very little programming background like me, this was extremely helpful because it gave me a solid foundation in software development and gave me the opportunity to explore the different areas and think about what I really want to work with.
The school is also very supportive of students after they finish the curriculum, and assist all students with the job search. The Job Placement director continues to stay in touch with students for the job application process. Because of the practice interviews I had and feedback I got on my soft skills and resumes, I was able to gain more confidence during my job interviews and received a job offer in the tech industry.

I gained confidence in different forms. I gained the knowledge of programming. I gained the knowledge of how to research and find solutions to issues. I gained the confidence to know I will find out how to overcome an error/issue as long as I keep searching and don't give up! I have gained a new Junior Software Developer position at a company that shares similar values and goals. I gained some new friends that have helped me reach the goal of learning how to code and becoming a developer. How has what you learned at The Tech Academy helped you with your transition? The Tech Academy help me to dive in head first in to coding by making me find the answers/solutions myself instead of just giving me the answers/solutions. It helped teach me how to keep trying until I succeed by the encouragement of the instructors. What do you think of the curriculum? I really liked the diversity and amount of the languages learned. The Tech Academy offered more languages than many other bootcamps. I really wish the HTML, CSS and JavaScript classes combined to make a solid personal website. I feel that at the end of the bootcamp I should have a dynamically functioning website/page that I could use as a portfolio. I would have liked a personal website to be an actual assignment that is pass/fail. I thought the Database/SQL class video series by Joes to Pros was the best out of any course. I also really would have like more Coding Challenges. I thought the coding challenge was a great way to display my skills and work on a small project with a deadline. How has it benefited you so far? I start a new Junior Software Developer position in March. The Tech Academy helped me get this job by teaching me programming and effective error research. The live project class helped me put together all of the skills I learned throughout the bootcamp which allowed me to solidify my skills. The job placement department helped connect me with past successful graduates and was vital in my preparation for the interview process. What things do you like most about the program? Amount of languages, decent price, online convenience, part time convenience, instructor encouragement and guidance, job placement support and guidance, live project real world experience, coding challenges, simple student newsletter, the online guest were pretty good too. All in all I am very pleased with the outcome of this bootcamp which is being offered a junior developer position with a great company.Danny Condon of The Tech Academy

Pros
- Flexible studying: The Tech Academy has a learning management system (LMS) where you can take the course work at your own pace and spend up to 30 weeks on the curriculum. This allows for people to spend as much time as needed on each course until they feel comfortable moving to the next one.
- Exposure to a lot of technologies: The Tech Academy provides you with a lot of exposure to various different technologies, whether it be SQL, Python, C#, HTML or JavaScript. Going to The Tech Academy helped me figure out what I wanted to specialize in.
- Job Assistance: The Tech Academy has a job placement instructor who helps out with resume review, holds weekly interview preparation and supports students through finding a job. I found that to be very helpful as I began looking for a company to work for.
Cons
- The coursework: While it has some good points, the course work is in need of an overhaul. There are modules that teach outdated methods for learning software development, especially in the C# course. I know The Tech Academy is looking at revamping many of the current modules (and may have completed them by the time of this writing), but they left a lot to be desired. I ended up using a lot of outside material to supplement my learning of the basics, such as Treehouse, which I thought should not have to do. I also believe they should focus more on project-based materials so students have a larger portfolio at the end of the program.
- The instructors: Many of the instructors are recent graduates of The Tech Academy. While this isn't necessarily a bad thing, it means their helpfulness outside of the scope of the curriculum is very limited.
- The final project: The final projects provide you with real-world experience, but they are limited in scope to The Tech Academy's Prosper IT consulting business. This constrains the choices of projects you can choose and also the length of each project. The Tech Academy should work with companies in the area who need interns, so students can get experience from a variety of different technologies for a longer time frame. This would make students more employable.
Summary: All in all, The Tech Academy is a school where you become the jack-of-all-trades, but the master of none. It helps you figure out what you want to specialize in, but expect to put in a lot of work outside the curriculum, especially if you haven't coded before (like me). I ended up finding a job that I am passionate about, but I would say about 75% of it was due to my previous experience, and the other 25% from the things I learned at The Tech Academy.

I'm still fairly new to the Tech Academy program, but so far I'm loving it. I am historically bad at self-teaching, and despite the guided atmosphere fostered by TA, I was still apprehensive when I began because of the high focus on independent study. My apprehensions have all washed away, though. The coursework is set up in an intuitive way that has actually helped me believe I *can* self-teach (sweet!). TA provides me with the resources I need to independently study their materials, but get help the moment I need it from an instructor. This integrated approach to learning is new to me, but has been surprisingly effective. I find that I'm digesting information easily and have already found a few instances where I've put it to work for me in my personal life.
The Tech Academy also has an encouraging focus on building each of their student's job acquisition skills, with weekly round tables, tech talks, a job placement coach and an entire course dedicated to job placement. I'm especially grateful for this arm of the program, as finding employment after this program will be such a high priority. The Tech Academy makes it clear they have your back on it. Perhaps the most resonating factor so far, though, is that TA gives me confidence. The atmosphere and attitude is can-do, the material and coursework is quality, the people are caring and informative, and the tools you learn invaluable. It makes me feel like coming here was the right decision.Danny Condon of The Tech Academy

The Tech Academy provided me with precisely what I was looking for.
When I was looking for a coding boot camp, I was searching for one that would provide me with three main things: - Experience using a range of languages and tools that are commonly used in software development. - Experience writing code for a project to which I made contributions as part of a team. - Assistance in finding full-time employment after I had completed the program.

The Tech Academy has provided me with all of these things and more. My only criticism of The Tech Academy is of their lack curriculum focusing on algorithms. There are many exercises designed to teach students their offered programming languages, but I had to search on my own for language-agnostic challenges such as implementing specific types of sorting algorithms. For me, even a nudge towards a site like HackerRank would be sufficient. However, aside from this one small critique, I thoroughly enjoyed my time at The Tech Academy. And I feel it would be a disservice to not mention that the staff and instructors are always willing to help and easy with which to build a rapport.Danny Condon of The Tech Academy

The Tech Academy was the most highly regarded bootcamp I found so I took a tour, met some great people, and I knew this was a great program. I am the sort of person who benefits from being in an atmosphere where I am surrounded by a bunch of great people who submerge themselves in the material and have a passion for it. The staff and all the students I have engaged with have been knowledgeable and very supportive. Not only have I learned a lot of valueable skills, but I've made some great friends along the way. I already have gotten a job and things are only looking to get better. This isn't to say it's all fun and games. You definitely get out of it what you put in.

With greater flexibility comes greater discipline.

I did a lot of thinking while doing the drills about comparing the concepts to large data databases. I learned the importance of good organization and structure of data, that the results from data queries be meaningful and that the data results are accurate. I realized the importance of writing good code and code that would prevent SQL injections.
I enjoyed the course, so i may want to use it more. I like front end design and am interested in aspects of user interface design. However, i like the idea of having variety and that there is also logic and design on the backend. It would be nice to incorporate both aspects and that the academy gives a chance to learn both is great. Also on a more realistic level i like the salary figures of backend. I enjoyed Python and find it useful as an automation tool, and very versatile for many uses, like Django as a website framework. Also there are many ways and many industries in which Python can be applied. I liked the libraries and other modules that other users have contributed and being able to create my own personal modules. I think that it will a very useful tool for me as a software developer.

The Tech Academy is a great institution, the instructors are attentive and helpful, the curriculum is set up perfectly in that it starts out very basic but comfortably turns into more specified and challenging assignments, but not in a way that left you in the dust with no idea what you were doing like some other self-paced schooling. The Tech Academy taught me a great deal of the practical skills I will need for software developing, giving me a solid foundational knowledge, and more importantly it gave me the ability to learn more on my own and grow my own skills, but on a more personal level while attending I learned to get a hold of my procrastination problem and to become a better student and improve my work ethic over all.
The one issue I ran into with the Tech Academy surfaced right before I was to graduate, and the issue was that I was getting very worried that in this line of work I might get a little stir-crazy, as I am an incredibly social and talkative person who thrives on interaction, so a job that did not have a considerable amount of that human element involved isn't something that I would be successful at. But luckily a job fell into my lap just recently that perfectly fulfilled my requirements, as it is a job in sales that would keep me constantly engaged with people and in a dynamic environment, and on top of that shortly I will be starting to work with the IT department on a project concerning their database.
So while my path didn't go exactly where I planned post-graduation, I do not for a second regret attending the school and very much look forward to incorporating my skills to my new job. All in all the Tech Academy is an excellent school that provides a great learning environment with instructors that are more than willing and able to help whenever they can.

I want to recommend the Tech Academy to anyone interested in technology and computing who wants to begin or change their career path. No prior experience or education in programming is necessary whatsoever for the incoming student.
I myself am in the process of changing careers at just a few months shy of my 40th birthday. I researched coding bootcamps for several months and came to enroll in The Tech Academy for the following reasons:
-
The Web is replete with resources for self learning many disciplines especially software development. And this is both beneficial and problematic. There are simply too many options and too many points of entry into this field of study. I needed a structured, curated curriculum and The Tech Academy has provided this.
-
I don’t have the luxury at this point in my life to return to a traditional four year university degree program. The Tech Academy’s course of study takes 15 to 20 weeks.
-
I needed specific training on employment acquisition. The Tech Academy’s job placement team provides weekly instruction sessions to prepare for the technical and personal interviews as well as resume construction and information on networking opportunities in the Portland metropolitan area. I didn’t have this resource at my college and graduate school.
-
The cost of tuition at The Tech Academy is at least half of the amount (if not even less than that) that many other bootcamps nationwide charge.
The curriculum structure is perfect for the coding newbie, even an absolute newbie like myself. The coursework begins with the fundamentals of computing and builds in logical succession. The content itself is broad spectrum covering both front-end and back-end web development languages and frameworks. This is a great benefit to me as I am still in the process of determining what direction I want to professionally pursue. The team of instructors are very kind, patient, and accessible. I am more than halfway through the content and have not met any concept or coding challenge that could not be understood and overcome. The study schedule is as flexible as needed for the situation of the individual student. I can recommend The Tech Academy to any interested student without reservation.

The coursework starts off really basic, which is exactly what I needed, then quickly progresses to full stack web/software development. I learned the fundamentals and was given assignments that forced me to do my own research. It really helped build my confidence to do my own research and figure things out myself. They do have staff available to help, everyone was very encouraging and I never felt like they were talking down to me, which was really important since it was all new to me. I’m not sure if other students felt the same way, but the coursework seemed to keep me right on the edge of my ability, always pushing me to learn just a bit more on my own to complete the projects.
After completing the software development curriculum, they have Job Placement Directors to help with job hunting. They don’t get you a job, but they help with everything job search related like resumes, where to look, how to network and mock interviews. The skills and knowledge I learned at The Tech Academy allows me to not only work in web/software development, but added to my sales and customer service background and apply to a broader range of jobs. Ultimately, the position I accepted doesn’t involve actual coding, but having studied web development and databases helped get me the job.
I really don't have anything negative to say about The Tech Academy. I admit that I wasn't the model student since I couldn't devote full time to studying, it took me quite a bit longer to complete than most students, and I wasn't available to be there for a lot of their group discussions and presentations, but they always happily worked with me to use my time wisely and get the coursework completed.
