Feeling secluted since I'm in a small town, not having a community or a mentor I had to find one. Nucamp was amazingly affordable and with the flexibility of the work in the week I was able to keep my job and learn. Only being a month into this I already have passed where I was at self learning. Every question I have had been answered and broken down to where I'm actually understanding. In the end this class so far has taken me mentally from a place of "There's no way I'll learn this, I'm not smart enough" to "I built my first project, look what I can do"- AnonymousStudent • Back End, SQL, and DevOps with Python • OnlineDec 17, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Nucamp Review
i enrolled because i wanted to learn something new, especially with it being computer related. I struggle learning through bootcamps because its not in person, but im doing my best and actually enjoy it alittle bit.
after bootcamp, i would like to continue through college and learn more web coding, networking and other computer related programs. - AnonymousApplication Developer • Student • Full Stack Web and Mobile Application Development • OnlineNov 22, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Value for money
This was very helpful for me even with basic knowledge of web deign. The self-paced course materials are very explanatory and somehow, whenever I have a question, as I rea or listen further in the material, they get answered. Thank you Nucamp for all the effort put into creating these materials and giving us excellent teachers as instructors - AnonymousTester • Student • Back End, SQL, and DevOps with Python • OnlineNov 12, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Backend
I enrolled in Backend bootcamp to hopefully change my career. It is the right decision in some way. I would like to achieve to get a new job as a Data Engineer or Data Analyst but this would take me to supplement my learning specifically in Data. - AnonymousGraduate • HoustonNov 12, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Backend Development Course Review
I have a background working as a process engineer and manager in industrial software. I seen the shift from desktop to microservice and cloud architectures, and wanted to learn more about it and how to execute those projects.
I think it was the right decision for me. I had some background in python, which made the first 2 or 3 weeks of the course easy. But by the end of the first section, and definitely in the SQL and devops section, most if it was new to me.

I think it was the right decision for me. I had some background in python, which made the first 2 or 3 weeks of the course easy. But by the end of the first section, and definitely in the SQL and devops section, most if it was new to me.
The course covers a wide amount of material, without too much depth. I now have a good place to get started if I want to dive into certain technologies. I think the course overall had a good pace, a little fast but we got to cover a lot of material.
The instructors were knowledgeable, and had actual professional experience, which I really wanted to see.
Their tools and systems are streamlined. I liked that everyone is in the same time zone. Class sizes are good.
My only complaint is the exercises were a little too easy, and the portfolio project, while great for learning, is optional. I think we had some very good students in the courses, but some that I would be cautious of hiring myself. - AnonymousStudent • Back End, SQL, and DevOps with Python • OnlineNov 03, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Great experience with Nucamp
This is an amazing course with great instruction and insight into Python. It provides a great introduction to the basics of Python, and I really appreciate how effective and thorough the instruction was. All of my classmates were super helpful and ready to dive into the workshops we have every saturday. Looking forward to learning more from NuCamp! - AnonymousStudent • JacksonvilleOct 30, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
NuCamp allows for working and learning a new trade
I selected the Web Fundamentals Introductory course which focused on HTML, CSS and JavaScript. I selected this course to evaluate the following: 1 Did I like programming and 2 Was NuCamp right for me to return to programming. I liked the low cost which allowed me to evaluate both of these things. If I were working full-time, I could see the appeal of working 2-4 hours per night and attending the coding lab on Saturdays.

At the end of the course, I determined that I do like programming and NuCamp allowed me to learn at a slow pace. After I left the bootcamp, I decided to explore obtaining a CS degree as I am not currently employed, and possibly return to a bootcamp once I complete the CS degree. - AnonymousStudent • Back End, SQL, and DevOps with Python • OnlineOct 10, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
nothing valuable
that course is a fake, there is nothing which is worth of the money, they have a good review because of rewards that they are giving, nothing which I can recommend.
- website is more less equvalent to public wiki or w3c org
- tutors are not qualified
- slack chanells are more less for wasting time
-the content is not good
-there is no training is more less train your self - AnonymousStudent • TulsaOct 08, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Experienced and gained new knowledge.
I wanted a career change, so I came to Nucamp to learn how to develop softwares and to become one. After going through the backend course, I was exposed to new knowledges, and it is very informative.
I went through the backend course on Nucamp and learned quite a bit of new knowledge. Got the chance to exposed with using clouds as well. - AnonymousStudentSep 25, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
HTML, CSS and JavaScript
I really struggled to keep up and understand the material. I didn't have the kind of time other students seemed to have. I don't regret doing the bootcamp because I did learn some things along the way. I need a class that's at a slower pace. Maybe something that's several months long for my learning style. - AnonymousStudent • PhiladelphiaSep 25, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Web Development Fundamentals
I chose Nucamp after a ton of research looking into many coding bootcamps and decided to stick with them since of their flexibility, price and overall effectiveness. I initially joined because I want to move into the tech industry and find a job as a front end developer in whatever place I can find. Thanks to the fundamentals course I know the very basics of HTML, CSS and JavaScript that can allow me to make basic websites that are stylish and functional. - AnonymousStudentSep 25, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Web Development Fundamentals
I wanted to learn how to code and get into a line of work where it would be needed and Nucamp looked like the best option. Whether or not it is the best, this was a good experience for for me. The course was put together well and the instructors were usually available.
