Coding Dojo part time online is a great learning platform for those working unusual hours. I was able to keep going and learning even when shifting from one work schedule to another.

As a Dallas student, the experience in the beginning with the regional instructors was great (Web fundamentals and Python), however, the Dallas teacher experience was quite different in a bad way. Only 1 teacher and 1 assistant (instead of access to 4 teachers and 8 or so TA's), and the Dallas teacher was considerably less informative/helpful/competent than previous teachers were, and there's no way around being assigned to them. Highly recommend Coding Dojo...If you're not in Texas.

I am well pleased with my experience at Coding Dojo. The curriculum is relevant to the current job market. Also, the learning platform is really good. I never had a bad experience with any instructors or TAs, they were always prompt to help me when I asked and did a good job explaining things. The school does not pull any punches when it comes to telling us how rigorous the course will be, I had plenty of days where I felt overwhelmed and exhausted and even thought this wasn't for me. However, if you just don't quit and follow their guidance on knowing when to research on your own and when to ask for help, I think anyone can be successful here. Just make sure you show up ready to work.

An excellent Bootcamp that I am so happy to have joined. Lot's of information and guidance on the journey to becoming a full stack developer. The Career Services is absolutely invaluable, and it builds my confidence that I will land the job of my dreams. I HIGHLY recommend Coding Dojo!

As the title states the programs do exactly what they say they set out to do I am in the online full-time program and impressed with it so far. I still have 1 stack to go. But so far I have completed final projects for both Python and Java and black belted in both. The learning platform and the instructors are very good in showing you the basics of that language. It fits people of various learning speeds too. If you are slower to learn they will do the best they can to help you keep up with the pace, but if you're more advanced and get ahead then there are many resources given to you to learn things above and beyond the basics. You are very encouraged to collaborate with fellows in your cohort and it helps greatly during crunch time before the belt exams. The only disclaimers I have is that it can be a grueling work pace to keep up with everything and though you can collaborate you are expected to complete each assignment or test on your own. So the resources are there for you, but you have to be committed to getting it done. The only downside I have found so far is that TAs and Instructors are not always helpful when it comes to things that aren't on the platform or within the curriculum. When doing projects or researching something that interests you and it's beyond the scope of whatever stack you are in don't expect much help in learning it and understanding it from the staff. Get good at finding solutions to errors online. Career Services has been helpful in leading me on the job search too and preparing me for after the bootcamp ends. Overall It was worth it to me.

CodingDojo has been an awesome experience. Everyone progresses at their own pace and I'm super grateful that the team at CD was very supportive throughout my time in the program. I started the program August 31st and got through the HTML/CSS portion with ease. Shortly after that, halfway through the MERN stack, I had a family emergency that forced me to miss lectures and fall behind. The staff at CD was very helpful and able to get me into another cohort the following month. As a full-time employee at my job, I again found myself in a predicament and was not able to fully commit my time and energy to my own education. I got to the exam and did not feel prepared to take it, so I reached out to my instructor, Kevin Udink, and he helped me get setup with his cohort the following month. This would be my third time attempting to learn the MERN stack. I was discouraged and frustrated, but I was able to meet with Kevin a few times for some extra help & adjust my work schedule to dedicate time to lectures and studying. Kevin is a great instructor and really takes his time going over the material. No way I could have made it through this program without his help. I passed my exam yesterday, and I guess the saying "third time's a charm" is true in my case. Thank you to everyone at CD for their help. Excited to see what happens in my next chapter!

TA's and instructors were very helpful.

This is quite an interesting journey. CodingDojo pushes and stretches your learning capability helping your brain to develop programming skills. If you ever need a quick dive into learning software engineering, there is no better choice than codingdojo.
