My experience with Nucamp has been mostly positive. Covering HTML and CSS in a weeks time felt a touch challenging, but not overwhelming. This began to change when we started covering JavaScript. I believe it was too much, too fast. With a bit more time, I'm confident I could get the hang of it, but time was a luxury I didn't have.

Covering HTML and CSS in a weeks time felt a touch challenging, but not overwhelming. This began to change when we started covering JavaScript. I believe it was too much, too fast. With a bit more time, I'm confident I could get the hang of it, but time was a luxury I didn't have.
One particular point of frustration (perhaps a compliment?) was while their video lectures were up to date in regards to modern coding practices, most websites that were refered to for extra studing were using outdated practices. This was even an issue when looking up videos on YouTube!
That being said, I found the final JS project to be quite daunting....If you have a part-time job, retired, or a Type-A personality that can perfectly balance day job/ school/ life, I would highly recomend this course. Otherwise, I'd highly suggest one get a solid grasp of JS on their own before enrolling.

Somewhat Satisfactory
I recently finished the Bootstrap section of the Full Stack Mobile Bootcamp at Nucamp. The course explains Bootstrap 4 and has several exercises and assignments to foster the concepts. But as all boot camps go, most of the learning is by you, courses can tell only so much. I wish there were some resources as per the recent trends, but overall, I am very happy with the instructor and the content taught in 5 weeks - Michael NauDevOps Engineer • Graduate • AustinVerified by LinkedInFeb 25, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

Web Fundamentals Review
I enrolled in NuCamp because I wanted to start my journey of becoming a software engineer. I previously had experience in Graphic Arts and I've always wanted to learn the back end of things of how everything works on the computer. I never thought I could actually learn it for the sake of difficulty.

The HTML, CSS, and JS course has provided me with enough knowledge that I feel comfortable enough to continue to move forward in this career. David was an amazing and helpful instructor. The videos provided throughout the course I found to be a little dull because of the type of learner I am.

Ready to Start a Career for Myself
What led me to enroll in Nucamp was a recommendation for a bootcamp from a friend that's been a programmer for decades, after trying out and not enjoying college and trade school for programming. I felt that I wasn't being set on a path to help in a career that I wanted to do. I would learn the basics of Python, JavaScript, and Java, and it took me into learning JavaScript with HTML and CSS for me to discover that I might really enjoy front end development.

I felt that I wasn't being set on a path to help in a career that I wanted to do. I would learn the basics of Python, JavaScript, and Java, and it took me into learning JavaScript with HTML and CSS for me to discover that I might really enjoy front end development.
I saw Nucamp having a front-end development course and felt that was direction I needed to take for myself. The course in itself is a lot of work, having to learn a whole bunch of new concepts and coding practices, new libraries and how they function, and exercises and challenges to help understand the course material. Every Saturday you meet with your instructor and go over the course with them, before doing a workshop assignment with your peers to help put what you learned to the test. The instructors are also very honest on what to expect in the field, and has given me a bunch of resources to help hone my skills even after finishing the bootcamp.
The work I've done from Nucamp has paid off. I was always interesting in coding, but I have never felt this confident like I do now with JavaScript. I really enjoy this type of work, and feel its a lot easier for me now to help figure out problems I may have with my code, because I now have a much clearer understanding of troubleshooting code and how to implement the features I would like. I have learned a lot with Nucamp, and although there's still so much for me to learn master, I believe I have fundamentals needed to get started in my career. - Charlie CullenStudent • Applicant • Hybrid (Online & In-person)Verified by GitHubJan 29, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Compelling, Creative, Thoughtful
Nucamp provided me with a unique opportunity to further my skills as a full-stack developer. The curriculum was challenging and kept me engaged, but the hands-on projects and supportive community made it a fun and fulfilling experience. Not only did I secure a certificate in fluency of Bootstrap as a result of completing the program, but I also gained confidence in my abilities and a solid foundation for future growth in the field.

NuCamp is awesome!
I have been doing alot of programming over the few years by myself. But I have no idea how good I am or if I'm lacking. I took this and quickly asked all my colleagues to join a team and got three or 4 to work with me and that has been the best part of the bootcamp for me. Just getting to work with others rather than just working by myself has been HUGE. Will definitely take again sometime soon! Nucamp is extremely affordable to the level that I could take their courses continuously...I have been doing alot of programming over the few years by myself.

I'm a manager, though so I don't do hands on coding myself anymore, so this is great to keep my skills up. - Yessiel GutierrezStudent • Back End, SQL, and DevOps with Python • OnlineVerified by GitHubJan 27, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Very satisfied, set yourself for success.
I really enjoyed this course, I feel accomplished because I felt like a learned a lot of new ways of thinking while coding. Our professor was very knowledgeable and is very patient with everyone, including new people who just started programming. The course is very well explained and gives small details that help the learner understand what is happening. I would only recommend to add a little bit of more details/help for workshop #3. Other than that I'm very satisfied. Just know that you...I really enjoyed this course, I feel accomplished because I felt like a learned a lot of new ways of thinking while coding.

Nucamp from a Tec Recruiter
As a tech recruiter, I frequently came across candidates who had completed the Nucamp course. This piqued my interest and ultimately led me to enroll in the program myself. I am thrilled with my decision to do so - the course was both challenging and incredibly rewarding. My instructor was exceptional, providing guidance and support whenever I needed it. Overall, I highly recommend the Nucamp course to anyone looking to enhance their tech skills and boost their career prospects. - Uriel FoxBoeing - Aircraft Sealer • Student • SeattleVerified by GitHubDec 24, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
An amazing experience learning the ways and minds of a web developer.
I have been looking for a way to continue my education in coding, software engineering, full stack etc and I saw that my company would pay for this. After a few youtube videos and my own research NuCamp seemed like the perfect fit for my schedule. I aspire to acheive the knowledge and the mind of a web developer and software engineer and hopefully to land a career at a large tech company. I'm okay with starting at a small company or start up. - Charmayne DurhamDepartment Analyst • Student • Back End, SQL, and DevOps with Python • Orange CountyVerified by LinkedInDec 17, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Glad I Signed Up
My sister is a coder for a major bank, and has been working for them since she graduated college. Given that she had no experience with coding, the company provided a bootcamp for her to learn the basics which really helped her excel in her career there. I've been inspired by her story, and decided to give it a try. I am proud to say I am understanding more than I thought I would, and I believe that I'll only get better with more practice. - Tsion WoldekirosStudent • Web Development Fundamentals • OnlineVerified by GitHubDec 04, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Great for Beginners
I decided to enroll to NuCamp because it was very affordable but after taking the course, i believe it was a great decision. I took the four-week web development class and i really enjoyed it, the instructor was very thorough and helpful as well. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking to get into web development.
