I was fortunate with a great mentor. I do not think all the mentors are as great, so you will have to be lucky. He was sharp, fast and two steps ahead. It helps when you are eager and trying to learn. Teaches you the mindset of code as well as the code. . The system is smooth. Between the dashboard, the submissions and the file handling. .I recommend this bootcamp. I love the discord! - John FStudent • Software Engineer Bootcamp • OnlineAug 03, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Tough but totally worth it!
I came into the course with no coding experience whatsoever, and after 6 months I feel fairly confident in my basic coding skills, my ability to learn new languages, and my ability to break down and solve problems. There's obviously much more to learn, but I wouldn't have been able to get where I am now on my own. Be warned however: this bootcamp is not easy, especially for total newbies like myself.

You will have to commit, put in the hours, and do your own research to successfully complete the program. Be especially aware of this if you are also working a full time job. In the end though, all the hard work is totally worth it, and you get to cover a lot of ground in a short space of time. The onboarding and support staff are really friendly and helpful, and the mentors are invaluable, although the only negative I experienced was sometimes waiting too long for mentors to reply (or even getting no reply). Apart from that, its a great (but challenging) course - I highly recommend it! - Owen matsalaniGraduate • Full Stack Web Developer • OnlineJul 08, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

So far I have had a very good but also very challenging experience, coding is hard and there is no way getting around that but they have designed the course so that you keep building on what you have been learning. I am really glad I chose to do the course onsite because it’s a very nice environment - the other students are great, you can ask other students further along in the course for help & you have direct access to either the main lecturer and junior lecturer. And I also have access to an online mentor which I can make appointments with if needed. I am in my 30s and a midlife career change is a big risk to take, I chose HyperionDev onsite to make the transition as easy as possible and have access to all possible resources that might help me along the way. It’s a very rewarding experience once your code works and when you actually realise that you can call yourself a coder. But you really do learn the meaning of the word perseverance, because it is tough. The course is structured in a very logical and clear way and it is very easy to keep track of your progress, it is assignment based and there are no exams. It would be great if there were more examples to work through though but you are also encouraged to do your own research to find solutions. If you don’t have any coding experience then I think it is unrealistic to complete this course in 3 months, I wasn’t able to but managed to apply for an extension. Some advice I would give a new joiner is to keep working - if you have completed the task for the day but still have it in you to continue, then keep going and read ahead and start doing the tasks yourself because it will help you to not fall behind. I am not sure how good the job assistance is after graduation as I have not yet graduated but they do teach you how to build an online brand for yourself.

I even had the admission consultant PamelaJ respond to my emails in the late evenings and call me outside of her working hours just to assist me, and everyone I know that goes to a higher institution knows that the admissions department isn't always the best part of their experience. There are many platforms they provide to get assistance and also you have many mentors that are available to assist besides your assigned mentor if he/they/she is not available. They also have a user-friendly online platform, nothing annoys me like a higher institution that has a Windows 3 looking format, visuals, unfortunately, do matter to me. Most importantly, the content is well structured and builds up well for the next topic, they provide you with additional resources and some videos to help introduce you to the work you will be doing, along with some spot questions with answers to help you grasp the core outcomes of the lesson, which you can choose to do and does not count towards the tasks that need to be submitted. The free trial course they provide gives an advantage when you start with the course because as a beginner you really have no clue and helps you ease into the actual course without feeling overwhelmed. Looking forward to my graduation in 5 months' time :D. - JohnFinancial Manager • Student • Software Engineer Bootcamp • OnlineMay 18, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A

HyperionDev Full-Stack Web Development
I am currently enrolled in the full-stack web dev online bootcamp at Hyperion Development. I am rally impressed with the way the course has been run so far. The course material is thorough and the tasks challenging, in a good way. And when you do need help with tasks setting up meetings with your mentor is super easy, and the community is also amazing to reach out to for assistance. All of my support requests have been dealt with smoothly, making it easier to focus on learning.
