As someone completely new to coding, overall I am very satisfied with the Fundamentals course I took, especially for the price.
I felt there was a lot of great information that was structured relatively well. I think trying to learn these basics on my own would have been much more difficult without the direction this course provided, as I would have been much more scattered. While I wish they had a bit more hands-on exercises during the CSS and first JavaScript week, they do include ...As someone completely new to coding, overall I am very satisfied with the Fundamentals course I took, especially for the price.
I felt there was a lot of great information that was structured relatively well. I think trying to learn these basics on my own would have been much more difficult without the direction this course provided, as I would have been much more scattered. While I wish they had a bit more hands-on exercises during the CSS and first JavaScript week, they do include quite a bit of helpful resources to fill in the gap that offer some great examples.
While the course was only $350, I feel like like what I learned is certainly up that value, if not more, and there's not much else I could really ask for.- ShayoriStudent • Web Development Fundamentals • Hybrid (Online & In-person)Oct 02, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Fundamentals Course
I joined the Nucamp fundamentals course to help me remember all the stuff I've forgotten over the years, and learn about all the things that have changed. For a fundamentals course it does a good job touching on all the basics. Since I had never used CSS before I wouldn't have minded going a bit more in depth there, but with limited time I understand why they couldn't. For a "true" beginner I think this course is paced very well, but for someone like me with some previous knowledge I ...I joined the Nucamp fundamentals course to help me remember all the stuff I've forgotten over the years, and learn about all the things that have changed.

For a "true" beginner I think this course is paced very well, but for someone like me with some previous knowledge I felt there could have been a little less hand holding and the assignments could have been a little less "cut and paste."
My instructor was great and was able to answer all my questions. Being able to do 90% of the work on my own time was a real plus for me.
I really look forward to moving on to the next class. - Todd MarinoWeb Development Fundamentals • OnlineOct 02, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
It really is a great investment
Nucamp was not my first choice because I thought, "how can a Bootcamp be this much less expensive than all the others?" I read a lot and asked other students, current and prior, of Nucamp about their experience and I never got a negative response. Ever. Based on my available time and my finances, I decided to try the Web Development Fundamentals course. I needed to brush up on my HTML and CSS and my experience in JavaScript was next to none. Plus, even if I didn't find their methods help...Nucamp was not my first choice because I thought, "how can a Bootcamp be this much less expensive than all the others?" I read a lot and asked other students, current and prior, of Nucamp about their experience and I never got a negative response. Ever. Based on my available time and my finances, I decided to try the Web Development Fundamentals course. I needed to brush up on my HTML and CSS and my experience in JavaScript was next to none. Plus, even if I didn't find their methods helpful, I'd only be out a small amount of money.
The amount of content required per week was more than manageable, it touched on the basics, and the Saturday class assignment tied up a great deal of what you learned that week. What I found exceptionally helpful were the Slack groups. No matter your question or problem, someone jumped in to answer it or help you through it. Sometimes the help came from instructors but more often it was students who helped out even if they weren't in your cohort or even taking your class. Everyone pitched in.
I'm glad I gave Nucamp a shot. Since everything went as well, I've signed up for their Fullstack Web & Mobile Development course. Once I've completed that, I'll be leaving a second and more thorough review of my experience. If you're on the fence, talk to one of their support staff, look up previous & current students on Career Karma or LinkedIn or hit up YouTube and watch an info session. - Rossiny St CyrOct 02, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A

Great Price & Quality Teaching
Hearing youtube reviews and the full interview of the CEO with a podcaster on youtube really help me chose Nucamp. Also, it was the best price which was needed since I'm on a very tight budget. I'm a school teacher as well, and another teacher who did the full stack BootCamp was able to change her career and land a job as a software engineer after the 2nd week of ending the Bootcamp. - Heather HallStudent • HoustonSep 28, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Web Development Fundamentals
I enrolled because i was learning filemaker and that was difficult, we found an ad online for nucamp and decided to try it out, it was a very good decision for because it made coding so much easier to learn and understand and i really enjoyed it. - RobStudent • Back End, SQL, and DevOps with Python • OnlineSep 23, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
In-Depth, Hard, but Well Worth It
Though it was hard to follow sometimes as I started from scratch, the amount of work and group work helped tons. I did struggle, but at no point of time did I feel like I couldn't figure it out. Having no coding experience before hand I was apprehensive about doing this boot camp, but I was able to hold my own. I feel like the pace, self-work, and group-work was the perfect balance. Our mentor/teacher was great, and I would not change anything about how I was taught. - Gilbert CamarilloSan AntonioSep 22, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A

You will learn so much here
If you ever want an absolute truckload of dev knowledge to be pressed into your head, this is the place. I thought that the cost was absolutely worth the experience. You will have access to more information than you know what to do with at the time you receive it. It is so difficult to trust the process but do it. It will feel like you're trying to describe cave paintings by touch in the dark, you just have to keep going. There is so much help from all directions.

You will have access to more information than you know what to do with at the time you receive it. It is so difficult to trust the process but do it. It will feel like you're trying to describe cave paintings by touch in the dark, you just have to keep going. There is so much help from all directions. The instructors are supportive and responsive. The alumni and other students are invaluable. The slack channel is THE BEST support tool, learn how to search your lesson or problem within slack. All of the additional resources that are provided on literally every single page of the curriculum should be bookmarked and saved for reference, and for when you can go back to read and study them. It is a very flexible format that allows you to study when you can, but be sure to commit more time than you think will be needed. It was extremely challenging but worth every second.
