Zach BeckwithStudent • St. LouisApr 27, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceGreat Alternative to Traditional Bootcamps
I chose Nucamp because it was the most cost-friendly and job-friendly bootcamp available. With it only being online (for the time being) I'm sure its not as engaging as other bootcamps which are predominantly in-person. However, the instructors seem to be very knowledgeable, the curriculum is challenging and everyone seems to want to help each other. So Nucamp is the next best thing to in-person bootcamps.- Alberto MotaStudentApr 26, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

Nucamp Web Fundamentals Review
I chose Nucamp because if its online-based nature, good reviews, and flexibility when it comes to time. I think it was the right call, as I was able to adequately balance my work and private life while also learning a lot of the things I've been wanting to learn for a long time. I've already signed up for the full stack bootcamp to follow up the introductory bootcamp with, and I'm looking forward to it. - Angel U.Student • Web Development Fundamentals • OnlineApr 15, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Web Fundamentals
I chose NuCamp because of its low price point compared to other boot camps and being able to do it after work/on the weekends. It was a good experience, learned a lot, and liked that for any things I was confused about during the week the instructor would be able to help during the weekend workshops. - Ben CatleyStudent • Web Development Fundamentals • OnlineApr 15, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A

Challenging but you WILL LEARN!
I chose Nucamp for the affordability and flexibility of schedule and I'm pleased with my overall experience in the HTML CSS and Javascript Fundamentals class. I went into the class with nearly zero experience but I've finished feeling like I have a decent understanding of these basic technologies.

I went into the class with nearly zero experience but I've finished feeling like I have a decent understanding of these basic technologies.
I had a small amount of exposure to Javascript through a free app called Grasshopper prior to the course. This free app basically familiarized me with some of the terminology in Javascript and how variables work, along with the idea of functions within a computer language. So I would have considered myself a newbie+ maybe? HTML and CSS were brand new to me.
Wow, did I learn a lot in four weeks! It is not easy and I recommend staying on track with the syllabus; maybe a day ahead if you can. Even a procrastinator like myself was able to do this and here's why:
The course structure is deceptively simple and very elegant. It does not feel like you have a ton of work to do....therefore you don't feel a dreaded overwhelming-ness. (I don't think that's an actual word, but anyone who struggles with this issue will understand.) Once you get to the lessons, you will soon learn just how packed with info they really are.
Not a word is wasted in the video tutorials. I watched them several times to help myself fully comprehend the material.
The videos are voiced by a very pleasant and easy-to-follow instructor whom you hear and can follow along with in writing if you choose. Typically everything is in writing below the videos, which is great if you learn best by reading!
Each video is between 2-12 minutes for the most part. It's very well thought out, but you WILL be using your brain and thinking a lot. You will not be spoon fed every answer. The assignments require your full efforts and by applying yourself, you will TRULY learn the material. You will also be much more apt to retain it.
Tips: Stay on top of the material...don't fall behind. Catching up is possible, but not recommended. Why make it harder on yourself? Also, don't be shy about asking for help, but do try and exhaust options for a solid 20 minutes before asking. This is something Nucamp explains and it will make more sense when you start your class. Your instructor is available during the live sessions on Saturdays and via messaging systems within the Nucamp platform and Slack. If you are unfamiliar with Slack, it is a portal/forum for working and collaborating. It's extremely useful! - AndyStudent • Web Development Fundamentals • CharlestonApr 13, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
HTML CSS JS Fundamentals
I chose Nucamp for the ability to choose when I apply myself to coursework, the subjects studied and it's competitive pricing.
Our instructor was very knowledgeable and was always available anytime we needed help. Overall, a good course for anyone looking to explore web development. - Mike C.Student • Jersey CityApr 13, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Web Development Fundamentals
There were a few reasons that I chose Nucamp over other bootcamps that I came across. They are as follows:
Number 1 was that its format is geared towards those who have full-time responsibilities such as work or school. Lectures are completed on your own time during the week and it all really comes together during the Saturday classes with the instructor and fellow students. Other bootcamps out there require that you quit nearly everything to participate in their training on a ...There were a few reasons that I chose Nucamp over other bootcamps that I came across. They are as follows:
Number 1 was that its format is geared towards those who have full-time responsibilities such as work or school. Lectures are completed on your own time during the week and it all really comes together during the Saturday classes with the instructor and fellow students. Other bootcamps out there require that you quit nearly everything to participate in their training on a full-time basis and if they have part-time options, they are fully booked for many months out. With Nucamp, you can begin your education almost immediately.
Number 2 was that Nucamp is highly rated and has high reviews from those who have gone through their training. After a few attempts at other base courses, I took Nucamp's Web Development Fundamentals and can attest that the reviews are well founded as it is by far the best training that I've received.
Number 3 was the cost which is quite affordable by comparison to other options out there that are easily 10 times the cost. This shows that Nucamp is truly committed to its mission of making coding education accessible and affordable to everyone.
Number 4 was that they have scholarships available that make an already affordable education even more accessible. As a military veteran, I was glad to see that my prior service was recognized and made me eligible to receive the Warrior Rising scholarship.
The knowledgeable and effective instructor along with a positive and dedicated group of classmates made my experience all the more worth it. I fully plan to continue my education with Nucamp's Fullstack Web + Mobile Development track and am very glad to have found this bootcamp as I believe it will 100% enable me to reach my goal of becoming a developer. - Ryan KirschGraduate • CharlotteApr 13, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

Web Development Fundamentals
Nucamp definitely exceeded my expectations! I choose Nucamp because of the price, but I was overwhelmingly surprised by how much I learned and how well I learned it. I have been studying on my own for years now, but finally I feel like I understand what I was studying. I highly recommend Nucamp!
