The mood in the classroom is chilled and feels like you are family, but at the same time you learn a lot and need to focus. But you want to focus because everybody motivates you. Additionally, programming is learning by doing and you do a lot of practical work. But it is very exhausting, too. The course gave me the ability to think about different ways to reach my goal. All in all I loved it and an only recommend it to anyone!- Aaron StaesFull stack developer • Graduate • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • BrusselsOct 12, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Best Choice for my coding career
Before joining Le Wagon I was a student in Marketing, but I felt that it wasn't something for me. So I started exploring other paths and came across coding. I really liked to do it and spend a couple of months on my own trying to learn it. But something was missing. That's when I found Le Wagon, I never expected it to bring me SO MUCH value even after having learned the basics of coding on my own. It's not just the exercises, but the community around it that really add a lot of value. Bo...Before joining Le Wagon I was a student in Marketing, but I felt that it wasn't something for me.

That's when I found Le Wagon, I never expected it to bring me SO MUCH value even after having learned the basics of coding on my own. It's not just the exercises, but the community around it that really add a lot of value. Both Teachers and your fellow students are really valuable. Joining Le Wagon was the best choice I've made for my coding career!

10 week Web Development bootcamp
Before the bootcamp I was an Art and Design technician at a sixth form college, during the 6 weeks summer holiday I decided it would be the perfect time to develop a skill that I had been practicing on Codecademy casually during lockdown, and fortunately the college allowed me an extra 4 weeks off to complete the full-time web dev course.

During the first few weeks, I found the bootcamp very challenging as I was learning so much in a short amount of time. It’s easy to get overwhelmed by it, but it’s important to stayed focused and motivated and eventually understand all of these new concepts and syntax. Fortunately the Le Wagon set-up accommodates for this, and it’s easy to keep motivated as there are helpful TA’s that gave me guidance and walked me through parts where I struggled, there is also a really good buddy-system where I was paired up with a different course mate each day to work together through the daily challenges. This made the community of the course welcoming and easy to navigate as you felt you could talk to anyone and even with a big class you would quickly know everyone, which is a helpful resource on the course and also when you finish it as you can stay in contact and then you’ll have at least 30+ people that are skilled in the same tech-stack as you. - ElodieGraduate • Web Development Bootcamp - Part-time • AmsterdamOct 11, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Great experience !
I decided to join Le Wagon bootcamp because after 5 years in Digital Marketing I wanted to learn more about the tech side and the product. I loved the whole process, every single days you are able to see what you achieved and learnt. My favorite part was being able to code an MVP website from a business idea that I had pre-bootcamp. It’s also the perfect opportunity to build a high quality network when you just moved to Amsterdam :) - DaniellaGraduate • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • LondonOct 09, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

After the 9 weeks, I feel I have built strong foundations to become a web developer, and Le Wagon has given me the skills to not only learn a programming language but also how to work as a team when developing web applications. On top of this, the extra careers help we received in the 10th week of the course was hugely beneficial, as it taught us all the ways in which you can show off everything you’ve learnt for future employers to see! I highly recommend Le Wagon if you’re looking for a change in your career or if you want to learn more about web development! - Henry MutschlerStudent • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • LondonOct 08, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

I was always very keen to learn how to code, however never had the time, patience, or base knowledge to teach myself. Therefore, I decided to join the Web Development Bootcamp London in July ’21, which in hind-sight was the best decision for me. I completed the full-time, 9-week course and can now confidently say that I have learned languages such as ruby-on-rails, HTML, JavaScript and CSS and others. Overall, Le Wagon has not only taught me how to code but also how to work on projects as a group. I am extremely grateful to the amazing team and my batch mates and will always look back at my time there with great pleasure. If you are also trying to expand your knowledge on coding, Le Wagon is the best place to go, and I could not recommend it more! - KatarzynaGraduate • Data Science & AI Bootcamp - Full-time • LondonOct 08, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

During the Data Science Bootcamp I met the most incredible people, from other students to teachers who were all amazing at explaining concepts and guiding me through daily challenges. The course was structured in a way which was easy to follow, and I could tell I was building up knowledge on different concepts day by day. I was amazed at the progress I had made, going from not knowing how to code at all to completing a final project which classified different stages of Alzheimer’s Disease from MRI Images using Deep Learning. Le Wagon not only helped me develop my data science and coding skills, but also the ability to work efficiently in teams. Careers week was an extra special bonus which helped me massively with writing my CV as well as providing helpful resources about jobs and further study. Overall, 11/10 :) - Luis FernandoGraduate • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • BrusselsOct 07, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Web Development Course
Le Wagon's bootcamp was incredible! It's very hands on and focused on solving exercises, which is key to learn any new skill. The teachers were one of the best part of it, they are so knowledgeable and they make it easy to learn, because almost all of them are alumni of Le Wagon. After 9 weeks I was able to build a web app from scratch with no tech background, which is awesome!

Wonderful Experience
For a long time before this summer, I have been trying to take the first step towards becoming a developer. The seed was planted when I took a simple introduction to programming class as an elective at university. It was my first exposure to programming in any form, and despite the class being quite basic I was instantly hooked.

The seed was planted when I took a simple introduction to programming class as an elective at university. It was my first exposure to programming in any form, and despite the class being quite basic I was instantly hooked. The ability to solve problems and think analytically was something I always gravitated towards, and programming (even in this most basic form) was just so delightful and interesting. This was something, for the first time, that I could really see myself enjoying in the future as a profession. The problem was that I wasn’t a computer science student, and I knew nothing about how to get started after finishing up that course. I didn’t know what kind of jobs I wanted or what jobs were even available. I didn’t know what programming language was the best to start with, or how should I practice, or even what resources were the best place for me to develop my skills. I made very slow progress since it was difficult to know whether the direction I was headed was the one I wanted to go in. I wanted so badly to take the first step towards becoming a developer, but I had no idea which direction that step should be and where that step would lead to. It felt like I was lost in the wilderness of all the information that was out there.
The first time I heard about Le Wagon was from a friend of mine, who unbeknownst to me, was going through a similar situation as I was. At first, I was skeptical. I had heard very little of bootcamps, but I was doubtful that I could learn what I wanted to learn in the span of 9 weeks. Especially considering the syllabus indicated that the teachers would begin teaching from the very basics of programming, which I already knew. I didn’t want to relearn the basics like iteration or conditionals or functions, but rather I wanted to learn how to create something real. I wanted the skills, and perhaps more importantly, the direction to be able to turn my code into a real-life application that can solve actual problems and pains. As I read more and more positive reviews online, I decided to give it a shot. So, I signed up for the Web Development course at Le Wagon for the summer. While I was hopeful about what the experience could do for me, I was internally preparing for a good experience, but not something profound that might help me decide whether I would commit to this kind of profession and perhaps point me to where I should go next.
I was very happy to be wrong.
The bootcamp, although it started with the basics, was consistently engaging and fun throughout. The staff was fantastic and it was very easy to fall into the routine of the day, which consisted mostly of completing fun challenges on the topic of the day’s lecture. Something really clicked for me when our teacher introduced the Ruby on Rails framework to build web applications. It was the first time in my programming journey where I could begin to see the possible applications I could build. The project weeks alone would have really made the whole bootcamp worth it. It was the highlight of the bootcamp by far for me. Working in a group to create a product is dynamic and rewarding in a way that is hard to explain unless you’ve done it. It was far and away the best way to learn. My teammates and I ended up developing a social networking website for foodies. It was staggering to see how far we had all come since the beginning of the bootcamp and incredibly surreal to see what we were able to build over the span of just two weeks. The most important element that I took away from the bootcamp and the project weeks, however, was that it allowed me to develop the skills and learn the process to turn my ideas into real-life web applications. It was exactly what I had been looking for.
I have many more steps to take before I can get to where I want to go. The difference is that I now have a roadmap and some reassurance that I am heading in the right direction. If you find yourself in a situation like mine, where you have many questions and you want to be pointed in the right direction, then Le Wagon would be a good experience for you to have.

I decided to learn to code and after doing some research, enrolled in Le Wagon's 9-week full-time web development bootcamp. The bootcamp was an incredible experience. All of the teachers and teaching assistants were extremely friendly and made a relatively difficult subject digestible and fun to learn. I was surprised to realize how much I learned while applying my skills during project week when we built a web app that allows foodies to create and join niche tasting events. Le Wagon was a great experience overall and I would definitely recommend it for passionate and driven people looking to learn how to code.
