From the beginning, you really feel part of a community that expends around the world. The team and the teachers were amazing. Really there to support you through the process.
You explore many different concepts to be able to create web applications in a really short amount fo time. Because of that, I was able to discover new avenues in the tech industry and now have a better idea of what I want to do.- MATTHIEUGraduate • Data Science & AI Bootcamp - Full-time • ParisJul 14, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Wonderful teaching team and well designed curriculum
As an alumni of the Web Development Bootcamp, I had very high expectations for the Data Science Bootcamp at Le Wagon. I was very delighted to be back in a very similar setup : the outstanding Web Dev methodology works very well for the Data Science Bootcamp as well.

Fast paced, the program ends up being approachable thanks to the wonderful teaching team and a well designed curriculum.
As an ex investment banker, my workflow usually involved Excel and Powerpoint when analysing data. Thanks to this training, I now feel empowered by state of the art skills that I think will make a huge difference in a landscape where data is becoming more and more prominent. I have a strong belief that those skills will eventually become as necessary as mastering excel when dealing with data, and I am glad I made the decision to stay ahead of the curve with this bootcamp.

Rio Batch #354
I was 25 years old when I began to work at a Tech company as a Support Analyst and I fell in love with technology. I spent 2 years thinking about joining a bootcamp but I was afraid that I was not good enough to learn how to code because I didn't have a background that was related to Computer Science or anything - I was a Public Relations.
On 2019, I heard about Le Wagon Rio from a friend who went to Law School that he was joining LW's Web Development course. After hearing about ...I was 25 years old when I began to work at a Tech company as a Support Analyst and I fell in love with technology. I spent 2 years thinking about joining a bootcamp but I was afraid that I was not good enough to learn how to code because I didn't have a background that was related to Computer Science or anything - I was a Public Relations.
On 2019, I heard about Le Wagon Rio from a friend who went to Law School that he was joining LW's Web Development course. After hearing about his experience, doing some Google Research and also meeting Le Wagon's team in Rio, I finally decided to learn coding and join their Part Time Bootcamp - and it was the best decision of my life.
I learned Ruby, Rails, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Git, how to collaborate in GitHub.. And the best part: we don't learn only from exercises and classes.. we had to work on 2 Websites: one market place and one final project. In summary, even without a Computer Science background, Le Wagon taught me 4 languages, how to work with my group, how to manage a project, and I was able to delivery two beautiful projects in the end.
After doing all my research I was decided to do Le Wagon's bootcamp due to their methodology, curriculum, and because of all the reviews I found online and also from all the histories I heard from my friend. And all my expectations were exceeded! Their methodology can teach people from all ages and backgrounds. Besides it, their teachers are knowledgeable and great. I have never met motivated teachers as Le Wagon's. They were always there for their students.
After Le Wagon I started to get involved with educational institutions as a mentor/teacher to help other people to make the right decision and to share my knowledge and started to work on projects along with my full time job. And even after my graduation, I can still access Le Wagon's classes, which they are always updating, I can still talk to my friends and teachers if I need help and I have plans to never stop learning about technology. - Matheus Moreira FerreiraJob seeker [hire me ;)] • Graduate • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • Sao PauloJul 10, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

I was interested in programming for a long time before joining Le Wagon and I was constantly trying to learn in my own time to try and get a job in the field. In my 9 weeks at Le Wagon, I learned more than I had in the years since I started learning programming. There's no comparison in the level of motivation and the amount of support between learning alone and learning at a bootcamp.

In my 9 weeks at Le Wagon, I learned more than I had in the years since I started learning programming. There's no comparison in the level of motivation and the amount of support between learning alone and learning at a bootcamp.
At Le Wagon, you learn something new every day and then use that new found knowledge to solve a series of programming challenges. This formula is incredible for getting you to feel like you're constantly progressing and getting you to learn the topic in and out, it was addictive. Throughout the day, you work with a partner which is a lot easier than working by yourself and having someone there going through the same problems is great. It gives you a sense of camaraderie and competition that really boosts your productivity.
I had a great time at Le Wagon, I made friends and learned an incredible amount. - Leandro Mariano AguiarGraduate • Web Development Bootcamp - Part-time • Rio de JaneiroJul 08, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

The coach I needed
I debated doing a bootcamp for a while because I thought that if I just tried hard enough, I would be able to learn to code by myself. After doing the Le Wagon web development bootcamp I see that even though it is possible to learn on your own, it is just smarter to have people help you on the way. The environment of a bootcamp is simply a lot better for learning, and the 9 week course represents probably more than a year of learning on my own.

Le Wagon's value is incredible with a third of the cost of similar bootcamps. I had a great experience with my teachers and fellow students and it was definitely one of the best decisions I've made to do this bootcamp. - AndressaStudent • Web Development Bootcamp - Part-time • Rio de JaneiroJul 07, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

Best decision I've ever made!
After assessing what I enjoyed most across my marketing roles, I decided I wanted to learn to code because what I wanted most out of my career was to be problem-solving and continuously learning and challenging myself.
I had very little experience writing code prior to the bootcamp, but from day 1 we started learning and coding and building up our confidence each day.

The bootcamp is intensive and is very well structured for people at different levels of experience and knowledge. Whether you're a beginner like me, or aren't completely new to tech, the programme is designed for anyone. The teachers are extremely knowledgable and supportive and the overall vibe and energy throughout the programme was amazing.
On top of the tech skills I gained, I was also introduced to an amazing community of people who have helped and guided me throughout my journey. Best experience! - DanielaGraduate • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • MontrealJul 06, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
A new career path with Le Wagon
Learning to code in 9 weeks sounds amazing and I needed the courage to start this journey I am so grateful for! After moving to Montreal, I started working in the Gaming Industry and was very curious about coding. In 2020 I finally decided to start a new chapter in my life and joined Le Wagon Bootcamp. During those 9 weeks we learned Ruby, Javascript, Ruby on Rails… During Project weeks, that’s when all knowledge comes together and we create Web Apps we would never imagine!

Something we needed during those 9 weeks was support from the teachers, and we had all the support we needed to complete every challenge and finish the day waiting for the next morning to learn something new. And the most important, Le Wagon leads you to be part of the Tech community, so you have much more support!

I was looking for a career change and looked in to coding purely because I like riddles. I chose Le wagon as it was recommended by a friend who had recently completed the bootcamp.
I had no background in tech and now feel completely comfortable in building a web application from scratch, this is due to the intensive and rewarding structure of the course and the amazing staff. The teachers and teachers assistants are super knowledgeable and encouraging. The staff as whole were very inclusive and welcoming and I never felt as though I was being taught by teachers, but more like I was just in an office with friends and some friends just knew more than others.
Aside from the tech skills I was taught, I was introduced to this amazing community which has given me connections all across the globe. I feel I made lifelong friends with the other students from my cohort and the staff.
If you’re looking to explore the tech world as a new comer or looking to up-skill, in a practical, real world environment, working in collaborative teams, I highly recommend Le Wagon Melbourne.
