    Product Management

    I have always wanted to build my product and have come up with many good ideas to start my own business in the past few years, but my first attempt failed, and I lost two companies and the products.

    In my research to find out what I was doing wrong, I read about product management, which helped me understand what was wrong with my products.

    “I was building the products for myself, not the users.”

    I decided to learn more about it, a...

    I'm really happy with the bootcamp. I chose to join in person part-time and dure to covid it turned to be online. In my opinion everyone was really prepared to teach online and the education received was great. The bootcamp is really fast pace, there are times were one can get frustrated, but that's part of the challenge and they told us that from the very beginning. In order to succeed, students must be really dedicated. Great job of the bootcamp personnel and instructors to fit all tha...

    I am a 40 something going back to school. I found the UCLA Cybersecurity Bootcamp from a Google search and have been very satisfied with the experience.  The teacher and the TAs are very knowledgeable and want the students to succeed!  I initially signed up to become a certified ethical hacker but have reconsidered my career and will be pursuing Cloud Architecture.  The Bootcamp will definitely help you decide what career path you want (and don't want) to take.  The key is to make sure y...

    Absolutely LOVED this experience! What a transformational program for myself and my career. The curriculum is very complete and the instructional staff genuinely cares about your success. If you join this bootcamp, try to get Omar as your instructor. Omar is very good at what he does and he's incredibly genuine.

    Phenomenal Course

    The course at times can become intimidating, however with enough effort and determination, you will find this class to be extremely informative. 

    I personally chose to take the course to understand Industry lingo and how to apply the skills I had taught myself in a work like environment. 

    I learned a lot of new areas to study in Cyber Security, subjects I would have never studied/been interested in if it wasn't for this course.

    Great Boot Camp but needs improvments

    I thought the boot camp was a good experience. One thing for people taking this course to keep in mind is that YOU WILL NOT BE A SENIOR DEVELOPER AFTER TAKING THIS COURSE!

    This course will give you the ground work of being a web app developer. The course is fast paced especially after Jquery (about 3rd or 4th week). So you will have to spend a lot of time codeing, refactoring, restarting, and reseaarching what you are working on.

    The course definitely could use some adjust...

    Full Stack Class - Amazing Teacher / Course

    I only have high praise for this class and its instructors. If I could break down my whole experience it would be the following:

    1. Coding is not easy, but they make it manageable

    The course provides tons of practice materials and an instructor (Omar Patel) who makes it fun. It will take a strong determination and dedication to the course materials and what the instructors recommend to truly master the material. Do not only r...
