Full stack web development course: bootstrap
I enrolled in Nucamp because I was stuggling to develop a portfolio and wanted to learn with and teach other students. With Nucamp, I have deployed a site and learned a lot despite having taken numerous college classes. It was the right choice becuase I find the resources and people help me stay motivated and solidify my foundation in programming.

Python
This was truly a valuable experience for me . Even though I was not a total beginner when joining this fundamentals bootcamp coming from a different language , I never used to pay attention on certain important concepts in software development . Huge thanks to my dedicated instructor and all my teammates.

Review
I just became a permanent resident of this wonderful country - the USA. I want to be a worthy citizen and to have a good interesting job that improves of life of other people in this amazing country. I didn't have the opportunity to get paid quality education....so I chose this Boot camp - NuCamp. I am very pleased with the educational process and the atmosphere that reigns on Boot Camp! Thanks to all --> those who made this process possible! - Kent JacksonCobol Legacy programmer • Student • Back End, SQL, and DevOps with Python • OnlineVerified by GitHubOct 16, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Full Stack Developer Candidate
The attainability of the price point and a strong desire to learn Python led me here. I believe that it is a decent fit so far. I guess I was thinking a bit too much of what I'd be able to take away and apply towards expanding my IT marketability. However, I am clear-eyed now and still appreciate the opportunity this program has afforded me to learn something that I've put off for years. - ConnorStudent • Back End, SQL, and DevOps with Python • OnlineVerified by GitHubOct 16, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A

It was absolutely the right decision signing up for Nucamp. My instructor was super informative, and she never made me feel left behind when I didn't understand something. The entire experience was great, especially interacting with other students and having a flexible weekly timeline. 10/10 recommend. - Juan ValleIndependent Contractor • Student • Web Development Fundamentals • DallasVerified by GitHubOct 02, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
First time reviewr for Nucamp
I wanted a new career path. One that was more stable and would provide a higher level of finiancial freedom. I also did not have the time and money to attend an in-person full time camp. This was perfect because it was very affordable and it fits in with my schedule. - Martin R.Technical and Sales professional • Student • Web Development Fundamentals • OnlineVerified by LinkedInOct 02, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Introductory course convinced me
I took the introductory four-week HTML/CSS/JavaScript course. HTML/CSS were refreshers and an update of some of how they've changed in the last ten years since I played with them. JavaScript was a whole new bag for me and as an introduction, this was fun and informative. I let my curiosity drag me down a lot of "bunny trails" during the week as I embellished upon the exercises and challenges. I think that looking things up that we hadn't covered yet helped me a lot.

JavaScript was a whole new bag for me and as an introduction, this was fun and informative. I let my curiosity drag me down a lot of "bunny trails" during the week as I embellished upon the exercises and challenges. I think that looking things up that we hadn't covered yet helped me a lot. Sometimes what I was curious about was covered in the next lesson, sometimes I was just learning more advanced stuff because I wanted to do something in my coding that was outside the scope of the classes.
Be curious and you'll do great at Nucamp. You have to learn. They can't teach you. I think some people expected to have Nucamp just somehow implant the information into their brains. That's just not possible. You have to be interested enough to search for answers and if you can't find an answer, ask your instructor.
In the Big Wide World, you'll never know everything. Get used to that now! You will routinely have to look up a function name, or a method, or which attributes can go on which elements. Things change and lesser-used features will just not stick. Learn how now, and learn to search for and find the answer as quickly and efficiently as you can.
Nucamp is less expensive and less intensive than other boot camps, which makes them more approachable to people looking to change careers or upgrade their skills.
The four-week introductory course is a great taste test to see if Nucamp's style will meet your learning need. It sure met mine! I will be taking future courses at Nucamp! - JackieJr. Software Engineer • Graduate • Full Stack Web and Mobile Application Development • Hybrid (Online & In-person)Verified by LinkedInSep 29, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Great Bootcamp!
I decided to enroll in the Nucamp Full Stack bootcamp because they promised part-time hours, a relevant course load, a quick path to graduation and an affordable price. I've been self-employed for many years, and I was ready to transition into a career where I could work fewer hours but still make great money.

I've been self-employed for many years, and I was ready to transition into a career where I could work fewer hours but still make great money. I chose programming because I've always dabbled in web design, but always with sites like Wix, and I thought it would be a natural next step to learn how to actually build beautiful, user-friendly UIs. Nucamp has definitely taught me how to do that and more.
I am a very self-motivated person, so Nucamp was a great fit for me because most of the learning in this course is self-driven, using guidance and resources from Nucamp. I liked that I was able to fit it in around my schedule, and I didn't have to commit many specific hours per week to the class (that said, I would have liked maybe one more class mid-week to really help me get through the material). Most weeks, I worked somewhere between part- and full-time hours, but I chose to dive deep into the coursework, which demanded the extra time. I appreciated the requirement of portfolio projects for this course, because I felt like the material really seemed to come together for me when I was coding those projects, and I have graduated with a portfolio ready to show to potential employers.
I liked each instructor that I had. They were all very skilled in their fields as well as personable and extremely helpful. You will become a member of the Nucamp Slack group, in which you can ask any question and receive gracious help from the many instructors and students in the bootcamp (and offer help when you can as well!).
I have just started the career counseling part of the bootcamp, and so far, it is really a big help. Nucamp really is committed to helping their students succeed, and having the career counseling is one more way that that comes through.
I definitely recommend Nucamp if you are ready to commit to programming, and are a self-motivated learner. It's a whirlwind, but truly amazing how much one can learn in a short amount of time!
