Software Development Bootcamp
Hyperion has been a very easy platform for me to use for learning the Software Development Bootcamp, the information is concise and easy to follow and the instructions are highly effective. Feedback and marking has been reasonable and very much on time. I have only been on this course for a few weeks but have already expanded my abilities. - Suraj GokulNetwork Engineer • Software Engineer Bootcamp • OnlineVerified by LinkedInJan 30, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

Hyperiondev is one of the best choices I've made regarding an online boot camp for software engineering.

The HyperionDev Data Science Bootcamp is quite an intense and immersive Bootcamp. The curriculum covers a large array of areas related to Data Science, and the first level takes you through all the fundamental and intermediate usages of Python, which essentially builds up your coding skills in order to better understand the inner workings of the daily functions performed by a Data Scientist.

The curriculum covers a large array of areas related to Data Science, and the first level takes you through all the fundamental and intermediate usages of Python, which essentially builds up your coding skills in order to better understand the inner workings of the daily functions performed by a Data Scientist. Not only will you learn to use your Data Science skills, but you will also be able to easily interpret the complex code written by your future peers and colleagues, which is an added benefit that isn't always included in other Data Science Bootcamps. The curriculum questions for tasks and projects do leave quite a lot of space for interpretation, which allows a student to interpret and solve various problems in a personalized and creative manner. The support team, especially Tevin, are great and very responsive. My mentor Nizaam is especially knowledgable in the field and has a very unique and interactive manner to teach you how to solve data projects on your own by invoking thought and setting your mindset to that of a programmer. Unfortunately, I can not review the Job Assistance they offer, as that only comes into effect once you have completed the Bootcamp. - Adeola abimbolaStudent • Certified Full Stack Web & Software Engineer Bootcamp (Full Time) • JohannesburgVerified by GitHubNov 27, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
hyperion dev software engineering bootcamp
good value for my money, am attending the September cohort boot camp. the lecturer Thabiso is an excellent tutor and knows the content inside out. the learning environment in Johannesburg where i am attending the onsite bootcamp is also very excellent and organized. the mentors are also doing a good job with task reviews and how they point students to correction and encourage you to do more where needed. - CroixEnglish Teacher • Cape TownVerified by LinkedInNov 07, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Awesomeness
HyperionDev certainly has an interesting teaching model. Every student is assigned a mentor to help them when the going gets tough. And kindly they did tell me I would get stuck, which is a nice reassuring thing to know (haha). My mentor is great, and not only that, there's an entire Discord community there if you get stuck.
The course layout is impressive. At the end of a month on the course, you'll be building your own simple game.

Even though I am only in my second week in the software engineering bootcamp, I certainly do not regret choosing to study through hyperiondev.

Software Engineering Bootcamp - Great Experience and Well Structured Course
While searching for ways to quickly get a start in my coding career i came across Hyperion Dev, I checked out reviews and weighed all my options and the part that intrigued me the most was the fact that i could do it in 3 months. In doing so for someone who had some knowledge in java and python I found some the tasks challenging and with their whole mentor system it really helps to understand where you went wrong and what you can improve on as a software developer.

In doing so for someone who had some knowledge in java and python I found some the tasks challenging and with their whole mentor system it really helps to understand where you went wrong and what you can improve on as a software developer.
The entire bootcamp goes through a variety of different things and i was able to get through it with a great mentor and a well structured tasks to complete and they provide you with well thought out guides when learning new ways to do things such as IDEs or installing SQL and even do a better job at teaching it
It was a really great experience for me however a huge part of that was due to my great mentor

HyperionDev, a disappointing experience
I started the HyperionDev program for full-stack web development on October 5th after some calls with the admissions rep and then someone from the career support department since I had a lot of concerns given web development would mean a career switch for me. They assured me that career support was guaranteed and that they had a placement rate of over 93%.

They assured me that career support was guaranteed and that they had a placement rate of over 93%. The program will give you the basics of the MERN stack and although they sometimes state a certain subject will be covered in more detail in another section it sometimes isn't (they did some changes to the last section by the time I got there, so there seems it may be an issue with them updating their instructional pdfs). On a positive note, some of the lessons are quite challenging and will require additional research which enhances comprehension. I only had one mentor throughout the whole program and I ended up with mixed feelings, although he was helpful to overcome some hurdles there were other times where he simply stated he would investigate some more but never did (so those issues were left pending). I finished the program since March 2020 and started asking questions about career support and the next steps only to receive no replies as of April 14th. I emailed them five times to different people (one of those times they said it was due to a change in personnel, but I also didn't get a reply from the other person). On a last note, they project themselves as being international but their career support and writings seem directed only to South Africans, which would explain why once I finished they simply cut all support (aside from the lack of support post-graduation and no replies, I didn't get a mock interview or a portfolio review by their career support team like some of their last lessons state). PROS: Structured program that gives good starting points for additional research and helpful for those self-taught students that have a hard time knowing what to learn next. Mentors can assist with basic issues that new developers may stumble upon. CONS: Absolutely no career support, so if you're switching careers or thinking this bootcamp will help with employment avoid it. Mentorship feels strong in the early lessons but in more complex subjects there may be times when he doesn't know the answer and will be unable to provide it or he doesn't provide recommendations to improve the code complexity in his review. They take two weeks off during the holidays (which they don't make up for), so for those that take the program during the holidays they end up having two weeks less of support.Melanie of HyperionDev

The way the bootcamp is structured even though it is quite intense and you need to invest time into your studies, made it a very manageable process, and when you fall behind they quickly step in to ensure that you can still manage, I would recommend these programmes to any one aspiring to make a switch into tech, the assistance with building your brand is also a great innovation as well, as I am starting to get offers on Linkedin as we speak.
