I took this bootcamp because I wanted to improve my data science/ programming skills. My background is in International Business and I am switching into this field. I found it great! I was a beginner in programming without a background in math, computer science or statistics so I wanted to try a bootcamp where some previous knowledge was not required. Coding Dojo helps you with a week of pre-bootcamp and then you start the whole bootcamp. I really liked that since the beginning people contact you, your counselor, your instructor, career services, etc. They give you immediate access to the learning platform, to the schedule, to the activities, etc. I feel that you do not get lost with all the new things you have to learn and do. I have taken other online courses/bridges programs and it did feel like you were there by yourself and if you learn something good for you because 'we do not care' and it was totally different with Coding Dojo. They give you real support! The platform is very interactive, Instructors and TA's really help you, they send you emails when you are behind asking how they can help, etc. The community and classmates were very nice too, they helped me many times. I can say that it is worth the money and your time.

i worked as full stack developer in the past few month untill one month ago i earned alot of knowledge angular 13 ,type script .net 6 , entity framework for know i am working as frontend developer at ghadeer future accelerator and i am hapy with my postion

I started this program with zero experience. Had a good platform to learn by myself and have previous lecture recordings. The learning platform was also well developed and maintained. All around it was a great experience.

Coding Dojo is one of six coding bootcamps I researched when I first decided to make a career change and move into programming. While I was making my decision to attend I found the staff to be pleasant, engaging, and capable. They always answered me promptly and referred me to sources that would help if they didn't directly/immediately know themselves. I ultimately decided to attend based on that and on the program they offered... it was one of the few that provided study in more than one programming language and that didn't insist on a Microsoft-centric learning experience. Once in the program I found the curriculum to be directed and the instructors to be engaging. The time commitment is intensive (they make sure to acknowledge that continuously before you start) and it's easy to find yourself falling behind on daily expectations, but there were always resources available to help catch you back up - including TAs, access to Zoom classrooms, an active Discord for your cohort, and the ability to schedule 1-on-1s with the instructor. The testing paradigm to progress through the stacks is consistent and the scoring does offer students an opportunity to distinguish themselves. Now, none of this is to say that Coding Dojo's program is perfect. During my cohort, at least, there wasn't a very solid sense of necessity during the project week that concludes each stack. Testing happens before then and can even run into that time if there are a lot of retakes and the project didn't have any bearing on your success or failure overall. There was also little import as to whether you should do them in a group or alone. Also, while there is an investment in the course materials to encourage students to do extra research on specific topics and to venture out to learn more about other languages, interfaces, and libraries, there are a few aspects of that where the program is definitely lacking. The most important of which I see as unit testing. Outside of the program, Career Services is the other aspect to consider here. My experience overall has not been the most consistent. It is improving, but I had a rocky start from early on. A lot of my cohort-mates, however, swear by their CSMs and have since early on in the program. The alumni Discord is active and there are regular emails with job listings, activities/programs, and new partnerships the Dojo is taking on. All-in-all, there's a comprehensive after-program program... you just have to invest yourself in accessing it. Thankfully, it never really goes away, they say you have life-time access.

I started this program with zero experience. They where very good at teaching coding in a way i could understand. The instructors where very helpful and the content was great! Couldnt have expected more. The learning platform was also well developed and maintained. All around it was a great experience.

I completed the Coding Dojo online part time flex program earlier this year. Overall I had a good experience with Coding Dojo. My instructor was knowledgeable and patient and the TAs were responsive and helpful. My complaint is just that what I learned was not worth the expense. I learned the very basics of full stack web development. I realized quickly after graduating that what I learned during the bootcamp isn’t even close to enough to get a job. And that is ok, Coding Dojo just needs to be upfront about the fact that you will have to spend many more months of studying on your own before you’ll be close to ready to apply for jobs. Of course they don’t do that because that’s not what potential students want to hear but it’s the truth. If I could go back in time I would save myself $7000 and learn to code on my own.

I learned to code while pregnant and with a newborn. The platform flexible and interactive. You can set your own pace, watch lectures live or recorded and the access to live help is always an option. Looking to take more courses so I can further my skills!

great program and nice people
