    Doing the Software Engineer Bootcamp with HyperionDev has been an absolute pleasure for me. I have found many aspects of the course relevant for application in my field (Water Science and Engineering). The course and exercises are structured in a manner that is easy to follow from a gentle introduction to an advance level. 

    I would strongly recommend the course to the young and old, those who are young graduates and those that have just finished high-school. Coding is a good skill...

    I started my full stack web development bootcamp in July after switching from a legal field. The course structure enabled me to pick up the programming concepts. Currently I'm on track with my tasks and hopefully I finish early December.

    Avoid HyperionDev at all costs!

     
    The quick version: Terrible, terrible, terrible. Avoid at all costs!

    Here's why...

    Being in the Aviation Industry and grounded because of CoVid-19, I decided to ups**** myself by learning to code. I had done some coding in Python before on places like Udemy and by reading books, but decided now was the perfect time to dedicate serious time and effort into this. I joined HyperionDev for the primary reason of being accountable to a mentor. The website adverti...

    Promise the world, deliver nothing

     Where do I start as the list of negatives are basically endless. I really wish I had seen the HelloPeter reviews before deciding to spend R20 000 on a course that doesn't offer you anything near what they promise. This is meant to be a modern, tech, educational platform that is forward thinking, but I can promise you it’s just like any other old school company. Theres nothing revolutionary in the way they teach, mark your work, provide your tasks… It's basically a drop box folder and ar...

    Selling people on a dream

    They will not "Kickstart your career in tech".

    Where to begin, I sold my car to pay for this course, and what I received in return was an out-dated course, basically zero career support, a half baked hiring platform with no opportunities for the average graduate, most job postings on their connect platform ask for years of experience.

    As for the certificate, it has no recognition in the industry and if an employer looks at the certificate all they will see is a certificate ...

    This course has been amazing. Due to finances I was not able to join, but HyperionDev Team helped me get in. The course content teaches you what you need to know. You may need to go do research to find out more. That is where you have the discord channel where you can ask any questions and people in the course can assist you.
