Hesitating to join? Fear not!
Prior to Le Wagon I had been working for 4 years in Communications and Marketing, and spent one year with an NGO dedicated to social and professional inclusion in Indonesia. Back in France I knew I wanted to change career but didn’t know where to start. After some research I signed up for the web development course with Le Wagon. Spoiler alert: best decision ever made.

Back in France I knew I wanted to change career but didn’t know where to start. After some research I signed up for the web development course with Le Wagon. Spoiler alert: best decision ever made.
What struck me is how fast you learn and progress. It clearly is the perfect match between technical skills, general knowledge, and community. More than coding skills, you acquire a problem-solving mindset. It is really intense for sure, but thanks to the pedagogy and hands-on approach you can directly apply what you learn.
During the bootcamp live talks are organized with industry professionals so you can discover potential career opportunities and start to build your network. There are also many hiring partners who know what to expect from Le Wagon alumni.
Now I feel ready to work as a web developer and use my newly acquired skills for social and environmental projects! - MarieFront-End Web Dev • Graduate • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • ParisVerified by LinkedInFeb 24, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
love to code
I was apart of the 501 Batch at Le Wagon in Paris. Unfortunately mid-way through our batch, we got re-confined due to Covid-19, which meant we had to follow the program on Zoom. The Wagon was very organized and available to make the transition as smooth as possible. I never felt abandoned or on my own, and still felt like I was getting the most out of the program as possible.

I feel as though I really learned everything necessary to become a full stack web dev, and am very confident in my coding skills thanks to them. I really recommend the BootCamp to anyone who is interested in Learning to code ! The Wagon is really there to support their students, before, during, and after the Boot Camp. - FaroukGraduate • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • ParisVerified by LinkedInFeb 23, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Best Learning Experience Ever
The Wagon is a caring and studious environment to not only learn to code but to learn to learn. The challenges are daily to always go a little further in the concepts of programming while consolidating as the knowledge is acquired. Especially since I find it very rewarding to continue to progress and transmit what I have learned myself as a Teacher Assistant and to have the feeling of being part of an extremely active community in France and internationally. - Juan Carlos BanosMaster's Degree Candidate • Graduate • Data Science & AI Bootcamp - Full-time • Rio de JaneiroVerified by LinkedInFeb 23, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

I am now pursuing a Master's Degree in computer so that I can further my knowledge in Neural Networks. I recommend the boot-camp to anyone who wants to challenge themselves and learn what the buzz of Machine Learning is all about!

Best Decision I Made
Le Wagon was exactly the push I needed to learn web development and discover what I’m capable of. I saw how much you can learn in a short time, given an optimal environment and structure. One of the best things about the curriculum was how it all made sense at the end. I enjoyed each module but sometimes found myself curious how it all will come together. I must say I wasn’t disappointed.

I enjoyed each module but sometimes found myself curious how it all will come together. I must say I wasn’t disappointed.
I loved doing the challenges and practicing the concepts we learned that day hands-on. I appreciated the effort that was clearly made creating each one of them, and it was a crucial part of the bootcamp I believe. I spent the first week on campus and kept doing the rest of the bootcamp remotely. Covid surprised us all and forced us to be capable of doing more online. Both experiences were amazing, I loved having a structured day with lessons and challenges. It was amazing to see how far we all came at the end of the bootcamp.
The project weeks were both quite challenging and rewarding at the same time. I was the team leader which was a responsibility I happily took and enjoyed very much. Balancing responsibilities and tasks through the team became tiresome sometimes but the end result was very rewarding and I think those weeks were great to see how it is to work as a team.
It was great to connect with many professionals, all in different roles in tech during the Career Week. Listening to their recommendations and their experiences was definitely inspiring. We also learned how to create an appealing CV for ourselves
Two weeks after the bootcamp I started working with two Le Wagon alumni from two different batches and different countries on a volunteer project. I was referred to them by another alumni who watched our demos. It just shows what an amazing network Le Wagon provides during and after graduation. I also realise that working together is quite easy because despite doing the bootcamp in different cities and times, we all somehow speak the same language and understand each other well. I also started a full-time job as a Junior Full-Stack Developer in in a startup less than three months after graduating Le Wagon and am again thankful for the opportunities provided to me by Le Wagon.
I love meeting new people and talking to them very much. Le Wagon’s global alumni is great to do exactly that. It is very easy to get in touch with other alumni all around the world and everyone is very helpful and nice. I also miss creating tickets and talking to a teacher whenever I faced problems and the buddy system. I really enjoyed the community vibe Le Wagon provided for us. - SarahGraduate • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • MontrealVerified by LinkedInFeb 12, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Great experience at Le Wagon Montréal!
I did Le Wagon Web Development (9 weeks, full time) Bootcamp in 2020. I’m a business graduate, but I always wanted to learn coding, and I tried on my own for a year. It was really difficult since I didn’t really know where to start. I had attended Le Wagon workshops in the past and I have read the amazing reviews online. After doing a lot of research, I finally decided to attend the bootcamp during the pandemic. This was definitely one of the best decisions of my life.

It was really difficult since I didn’t really know where to start. I had attended Le Wagon workshops in the past and I have read the amazing reviews online. After doing a lot of research, I finally decided to attend the bootcamp during the pandemic. This was definitely one of the best decisions of my life.
Before starting, you need to do a full prep-work, it includes a course about: Ruby, HTML, CSS, JavaScript and some web preparations. The bootcamp is definitely super intense and immersive. You have to be fully committed. There’s a lecture in the morning, and then you work on challenge all day with an assigned buddy. It makes it really straight-forward, and you start coding on the very first day. At the end of the 9 weeks, you will be able to build a marketplace from scratch, it seems impossible but with Le Wagon resources, it is.
The teachers and the full team are amazing, they all did the bootcamp, so they know exactly what you need. They are all passionate and truly dedicated to Le Wagon’s mission. They are always available if you need anything and they always go beyond your need.
The program is also fully structured, you have access to so many resources, you won’t need anything else. Everything is there. You also have access to all the alumni’s, it’s a dedicated community that is also available, even after you graduate.
Before joining Le Wagon, I used to read the reviews and I thought maybe they were a little bit exaggerated, but they are not. I truly recommend Le Wagon to anyone wanting to develop new skills, change careers or be able to build a product on their own. - CamillaGraduate • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • MontrealVerified by LinkedInFeb 12, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

I decided to get myself into programming and someone I know strongly recommended me to do the bootcamp at Le Wagon.

The goal of doing this prep work is to see if you liked it and you're ready to enroll to classes. So, I did the bootcamp during the pandemic, thinking it would make things harder, but it was the opposite. The staff adapted really quickly to those changes and we had all the tools needed. The journey itself was intensive, but worth it. A lot of new concepts to learn everyday and challenges to complete. The teachers and TAs were very helpful when I had questions. The bootcamp also made me learn how to search for my answers on the Internet from trusted sources, because knowing how to search for correct answers is the key of being a good developer. Overall, I was very satisfied with my experience at Le Wagon. The final project was really fun. - NVerified by GitHubFeb 12, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

I left to pursue my dream, and then the Global Pandemic hit! I had many opportunities to pursue both employment and learning. After much research, I signed up for Le Wagon! There are many learning vehicles out there, but I did choose Le Wagon........why?
They are an experienced team, they have an expansive curriculum, and are on top of all the newest technologies pertinent to the market today. But.....that is not why, it was because of the people, the detail to attention and care individually and the way they teach and stretch and support you to be your best. Their techniques and support coupled with care and investment in who you are - the soft skills that matter to build confidence and become a part of their family of excellence
I learned so much of the fundamentals of coding and in a team-based way/culture that challenged and rewarded me. I now have many opportunities, and a vibrant network and feel fueled for the next step in my career!

After the Le Wagon, I got a working student job where I could work 50% of my working time on business and 50% on developer tasks. Now I am planning on doing a Master's degree in Business Analytics, further intensifying my programming skills and learning how to apply them in a business context. - Arron RitchieData Scientist • Graduate • Data Science & AI Bootcamp - Full-time • TokyoVerified by LinkedInFeb 04, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

However, I was pleasantly surprised by the quality and clear logical progression of the curriculum.
Le Wagons preparation to have subject matter experts that were currently working in their field professionally as the course moved forward to give industry advice and insights while teaching each module really helped to lock in the relevance and application of what we were learning.
The whole Le Wagon team was keen, enthusiastic, driven and passionate about their subjects which in turn help to invigorate myself and I believe my fellow classmates. The really shone through more during the final project stages when they were just as interested and invested in making sure the projects worked to their full potential as much as the students working on the projects themselves.
After the course Le Wagon provides comprehensive advice on preparing your resume, LinkedIn, GitHub and any other relevant professional portfolio sites/resources. Along side this their connections in the hiring market in Tokyo proved extremely useful allowing me to find a great data science job through their recommendations within 2 and a half weeks!
Overall, I highly recommend Le Wagon, you can get a huge amount out of this course as long as you're willing to put the effort in to maximise the potential of this well constructed course. - AlainGraduate • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • MontrealVerified by LinkedInFeb 01, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
