So very thankful for the program at Generation. Grateful that a program like this exists to help fill the gap between hardworking people looking to grow but may be missing the traditional qualifications and jobs that need to be filled. My Generation instructor was amazing and even though it was sometimes rough to make it to class everyday when juggling a family and a job, it was all worth it in the end. They set you up for success and build you up in whatever you are lacking. They prepar...So very thankful for the program at Generation. Grateful that a program like this exists to help fill the gap between hardworking people looking to grow but may be missing the traditional qualifications and jobs that need to be filled. My Generation instructor was amazing and even though it was sometimes rough to make it to class everyday when juggling a family and a job, it was all worth it in the end. They set you up for success and build you up in whatever you are lacking. They prepared me and my group, nudged us out of our comfort zone so we could grow and grow we did. I got the job and so did my classmates. We built special bonds with each other. The job preparation was spot on from the resume building and interview tips, to how to succeed within the new role. Thank you Chavela and everyone involved in Generation USA!!- ArielGraduate • Junior Web Developer • OnlineAug 10, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

Profitable time
My experience at Generation USAI had a wonderful experience; The TAs were all amazing and helpful. There were a lot of material to cover in such amount of time and we were presented with adequate resources to help us navigate through the cohort. In addition, Generation has career/life coaches which is a plus; get to meet with a coach to help with resumes, jobs, mock interviews and etc. I highly recommend taking a class/cohort with this program. - AnonymousStudent • Digital Marketing Analyst • OnlineSep 15, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A

Teacher amanda buckner and TA lorrela bain were amazing and helpful. The generation curriculum has many issues. Inefficient use of time and unrealistic expectations with group work. Too much time on mindset/behavioral skills at the expense of tech skills that will be asked of us on the job. Need to spend more time on the difficult sections like SEO to make sure everyone learns what is neccessary. Please give the instructor more flexibility to alter the cirriculum for student benefits.

Guest speakers were a great addition. If your teacher is excellent like mine was its all worth it. - AnonymousStudent • Digital Marketing Analyst • OnlineAug 22, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Rude Teacher
One of the instructors is pretty rude. She says to communicate and ask questions, but cuts you off and answers everything with an attitude.
Also, I'm not going to say that she treats adult students like children because as a teacher you shouldn't treat children that way either. She has a total lack of respect.
This is pretty daunting because we've only just started so to think there are several months left with her attitude is making me already dislike this class.One of the instructors is pretty rude. She says to communicate and ask questions, but cuts you off and answers everything with an attitude.

On the other hand I'm glad we have the teaching assistant so I'm just going to go directly to him if I have questions. I'm not sure if this lady has been jaded by previous students, but she needs to change her attitude. This is an opportunity students are supposed to be grateful for, but she's making it unpleasant. - AnonymousFuture Cloud Practitioner • Student • Associate Cloud Engineer • OnlineAug 10, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

I felt so much more confident and prepared to take the next step in my life. I really appreciate my TAs and the time and efforts to put in to train us and make us believe in ourselves. They are all knowledgeable and always prepared. I was lucky to find Generation USA. As a teacher, I have always been dealing with the kids and taking pain killers for migraines sometimes twice a day, and didn't know how to start an IT career.
