I have attended Le Wagon full time web development bootcamp in Paris. I really loved the result oriented and pragmatic approach to make sure you have all the relevant skills in a 9 weeks time frame. I think the program fits perfect if you are looking to become a full time web developer. But it is also a great fit if you are looking to develop coding skills as an entrepreneur or as a more versatile profile, which is my case.

It's an environment to get you ready for a day to day of a programmer where you most likely will work with a team and have to collaborate with others in the same code. You will learn from scrach all the main skill to learn how to think and work as a programmer. I never had any contact with programming before and with this Bootcamp I fell in love with it and got a job as a junior programmer two months after graduating. For me it was the best decision I made, putting myself to the challenge of changing careers with the Le Wagon Bootcamp. - AadelStudent • Web Development Course - Full-time (Remote) • BrusselsVerified by LinkedInMay 03, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

I used to work in the banking sector before joining Le Wagon. My mission was to coach clients as well as colleagues in the Retail & Private Banking in their digital transition. Even if the challenge my team and I faced every day was great, I felt it wasn't enough. I wanted to contribute to design and develop the bank's digital channels based on everything I learned from being close to the end users.

Even if the challenge my team and I faced every day was great, I felt it wasn't enough. I wanted to contribute to design and develop the bank's digital channels based on everything I learned from being close to the end users.
There are many coding schools in Brussels, but I was looking for the one that would allow me to work on real projects from scratch. With Le Wagon, I'm immersed in daily challenges with my buddy and a team of teachers if any problem is detected. As the challenges progress, my buddy and I feel like devs, startup founders, designers, and much more! incredible feeling! I discovered new tools and concepts used in the tech world and sometimes deepened my knowledge for some of them I already knew. You will end this training with more opportunities than DEV back-end, front-end and FullStack if you want to choose another path: growth marketer/hacker, UI/UX designer, product manager, product owner,.... The experience was amazing and I highly recommend it to EVERYONE. Learning and/or understanding code at Le Wagon is the best way to stay competitive or to reorient your career. The opportunities are just huge! - Gustavo CunhaStudent • Data Science Course - Full-time (Remote) • Rio de JaneiroVerified by LinkedInMay 02, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

Firstly, the course is very focused on practice: we spent about 6 hours per day coding and solving challenges.

Secondly, the course shows us a wide range of tools/topics that we can use on our projects and future jobs: SQL, statistics, storytelling, machine learning, deep learning, and data engineering.
Besides, students have the opportunity to finish the Bootcamp with their project:- we choose what is the topics of the project;
- we do the project ourselves (teachers and TA just give help when needed, they don't do the project for us); and
- we present the project (on Youtube).
Last but not least, the networking opportunity is amazing, not only with our colleagues in the Bootcamp but also with the rest of the Le Wagon community (more than 10,000 ex-students).
To summarize, if I had to go back in time and decide if I would do (or not) the Bootcamp, I would decide to do it again without any doubt. - Fred ClausenStudent • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • LisbonVerified by LinkedInApr 30, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

Course #803 consisted of 11 students. Finding a job was not my top priority. I wanted the ability to create a full-stack website out of my head.
Whilst I had plenty of experience, I did not know where to start, how to put a workable architecture together and deliver a finished website. This bootcamp helped me with everything and produced an end-to-end web app. It was very fast paced. I’ve waited 6 weeks before writing a review as I wanted to go over everything again at my own pace.
The concept of a bootcamp comes from the military: “Sweat saves blood.” The complete day-to-day curriculum is known up-front. Which means you must keep up. If not, you are coached to help you where you are weak. If you were stuck for more than 20 minutes, you could ask for help. So, with 5 minutes discussion you were on the move again instead of spending the rest of the day on google looking for answers. Everybody needs some help at some stage. It might sound tough but if you pass the pre-course work you should be fine, provided you work hard.
Most days follow the same pattern. The day starts with an instructor giving you a demo of the day’s topic. There is never any doubt that what you learn works because you see it happening before your very eyes. The rest of the day is spent solving a structured set of problems.
My mother often said that a bad workman always blames his tools. This is very true in the software world. However, “I saw it done this morning” is a powerful motive to get on with the job and stop doubting the tools. Buddy programming works very well. You can inspire each other and solve problems much more quickly.
For two weeks I accessed the course remotely. If you must know I was in London visiting my new grandchild. Nobody said the course was only for young people!
In the middle of the course I had my "senior moment." I forgot my Linux root password and had to re-install my entire laptop. Very embarrassing. However, due to the course design, everything was in the cloud so I lost no data.
The career week was awesome. I was able to redesign my CV. Some of the invited companies were my old employers so I was able to recommend them as good workplaces.

I had such an amazing experience with this bootcamp. First of all, its manager is a SUPER leader. Milene has amazing leadership skills and helped everybody (and still does!) throughout the course.

Second, the teachers are really good and since they are all alumni, they know exactly how desperate we are when doing our first mvc based app. Third, the sense of community is huge.
So, if you are looking to leverage your programming skills, or migrate to tech field, enroll yourself in one of Le Wagon's bootcamp. You can't go wrong and you'll surely learn lots of hard skills and soft skills.
Soft skills? Yeah! We are invited to pitch an idea to be developed as a final project. While developing it, we do it as teams, with scrum dailies and kanban. Also, throughout the journey, you learn you are not alone and if you are stuck on a problem, you can open a ticket with a TA (as you would schedule a call with a senior on your job).

I highly recommend Le Wagon for anyone wanting to learn how to code, no matter if you some or zero experience.
The pace is fast, yes, some days are tough, also yes, you will have moments where you feel overwhelmed, definitely yes, but seeing the amount of information you can absorb and what you can achieve in only 9 weeks is totally worth it.
Another thing that made this experience worth was the environment on campus. Coming from some difficult covid years, it felt so good to be able to be on campus and meet so many great individuals, from colleagues to teachers to staff and I will be forever thankful to all of them.

Although it is an intense period of 9 weeks, you have the opportunity to not only learn A LOT everyday, but to be part of a team of people that are just as amibitious as you are. After learning about theories and concepts, you get corresponding challanges which make the new knowledge you have just learned stick.

If you have questions at whatever point of the day, there are always very motivated teachers around you ready to jump in and help you find the solution/answers yourself with their guidence.

At Le Wagon you’ll learn the foundations and you’ll develop a way of thinking in which is easier to learn any other programming language.
The quality of teachers and teacher assistants is extraordinary; whenever I had a doubt or I was confused with an exercise, I always received guidance and never felt uncomfortable asking for help. The Barcelona crew was always supportive, helpful, empathetic and kind. One of my favorite things about Le Wagon was that it felt as if we were a family, and even though that we were a super diverse group, we all came from different backgrounds and nationalities but among other things we had one special thing in common: We all wanted to change our life through learning to code. Le Wagon is amazing by itself, but having the opportunity to do the bootcamp in a vibrant city such as Barcelona is a great add on! - RayaneFull Stack Developer • Student • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • BordeauxVerified by GitHubApr 21, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Super formation !
Jamais je n'aurais cru qu'en 9 semaines j'allais vraiment pouvoir apprendre à coder. Eh bien si ! J'ai été surpris par le programme extremement bien conçu qui permet d'apprendre à programmer même si on a jamais touché au code auparavant ! L'équipe est sérieuse, sympathique, dispo et passionnée. Vraiment une super formation !
