Learn Design at These 182 Design Bootcamps

About me:
This section is just so that you can gauge if what I wrote below applies to your situation. I learned programming mostly on my own and only became a Codecool student because I found I needed help in getting a job. I also followed the courses of another company (Scoala Informala de IT <- would not recommend), but this was after I had a decent understanding of the Java programming language. I started learning Java at about 32 years old, and I joined Codecool when I was 36. I finished their courses in 8 months and got hired about 2 months after I finished.


The good:
- You will be surrounded by a community of people willing to help you learn how to code. I'm not talking here about the mentors necessarily (though they will definitely help you... if you set your shame aside and ACTUALLY GO ASK THEM), but about the other students.
- The curriculum is decent and, based on what I heard, it somehow got better AND shorter.
- The job guarantee, although not a guarantee per se (more about that in the next section), is real. If your attitude is not that of a jackass, you will get hired through them. This was the main selling point for me, because even though you can indeed learn to program from Udemi, that doesn't mean anyone will actually hire you.
- You will also learn how to hold presentations for your projects, a skill that, from recent experience, seems to be just as important as writing code.


The bad:
- The curriculum is a roller coaster ride to go through for somebody with no experience in programming. As people have probably already told you if you're planning on becoming a student, the course is a full time job, and you will most likely not be able to also work for the majority of the courses duration. 
- Some of the mentors attitude towards mastery based learning can degrade to "figure it out yourself" without them leading you to the right way of doing things. This statement needs more clarification, as for somebody who hasn't programmed before it probably means that the mentor should be there to help with their the majority of their problems. This is not the case though because learning how to research and troubleshoot are also things that students need to learn. I'm talking about stamping out bad solutions that would make your potential employer shake their head in disagreement if they read the code.
- The HR/marketing team will sugarcoat the contract terms heavily. Now I don't blame them, in fact I'd do the same if I were them, however I still want to point it out. If you read the contract though you will know exactly what you're getting into. The terms are not for the faint of heart. If you won't read them, you'll grieve about how horrible the service is. Either way, it's on you. For example you're not actually guaranteed a job, you're guaranteed 6 interviews, but if needed the number of interviews you're allowed to take can be increased (the way I read this paragraph from the contract is that if you're a decent human being they will help you get hired. If not, they'll provide the 6 interviews and then "bye bye". And also it helps protect against abusers who will wait for a year and not have to pay for the course. Bottom line, read the contract).

I attended the mini UX/UI bootcamp of Nokumi earlier this year, and it was surprisingly engaging for someone without prior experience in design. The instructors are very friendly and they are willing to go the extra mile to help us out. I'm glad that I can better coordinate my team after taking this course. 

The Awesome Inc. bootcamp helped me completely change my career direction.  The instructors are extremely helpful and give you all of the tools you need to get starts with a career in tech.  Not only that but the entire Awesome Inc. team is behind you and helping you towards your goals.  Overall amazing experience! 

Wcoding is an excellent introduction to the tech-world.
Originally a marketer, I wanted to change my career and learn new skills in the wake of the Covid19.
Being a total computer-illiterate, I joined the Fullstack Intensive course after a positive impression by Kyle and Judy.

Even though the courses were not cheap, it is still much affordable than most tech bootcamps in the US or Europe.
As I am now landing an internship in an AI company, I can say the curriculum was well-done and useful. It provides good fundamentals in Front and Back-end as well as the skills in demand on the job market.

All the workers (from the founders to teachers and interns) are nice, friendly and helpful. I wish to thank them for that.
Big thumbs up for the Job Support also. The school provides a custom-made assistance for the students, sharing with them internships/job opportunities and counselling regarding their visa status.

On the other hand, it is called intensive for a reason: do not even think of joining if you are not committed.
Keep in mind learning new skills and finding a job is a very taxing process. Especially if you have zero scientific/technical background.
As far as I am concerned, it was a very stressful experience.
If that's the case, be kind to yourself. Work on your portfolio, stick around and look for internships.

To conclude, Wcoding will give you the tools, the guideline and the proper environment to start a career in the Tech Industry.
Nonetheless, you will need a lot of time and even more practice to land the job of your dreams at Google.
It is hard, but it is doable.
Now go coding.

Pros:
- Teaches useful coding languages and essential coding skills (much more effective than self-studying)
- Great team: teachers and developers will always make time to listen to you and help you work on your projects.

- Our main teacher Marie was professional and encouraging with a non non-sense attitude.
- You learn by doing.

- Sets you on track for the job market.

- Able to network with other developers.
- The school never gives up on you as long as you don't give up on yourself.

Suggestions:
-How about a slightly longer learning period ? 
-Create programs based on each student's level (beginner, faux-beginner, experienced and so on...)
-Hire more teachers
-More counselling about personal development for each student.

Centriq Cybersecurity boot camp will teach you how to build and configure virtual machines, analyze security protocols, device security and management. You will use real life scenarios to complete projects. The school will work with you from anywhere to ensure you achieve your dream career in IT. I will recommend Centriq to anyone who is starting with little or no knowledge in IT. 

The weekly live classes with the coach were very helpful. Then they do additional live session which are not mandatory but id say is another great resource to understand the courses better. And the whole member of QS are very responsive and their goal is really for you to succeed in this field. 

Took the UX Foundations course and completed within 4 weeks to be able to join the upcoming cohort in December and was very satisfied. While there is a lot of information to retain and the pace I chose to complete this course could sometimes feel overwhelming, the support from my mentor put my mind at ease. One of the best parts of this program is the mentorship. I've taken previous bootcamps from other competitors and did not receive this 1:1 support and can say the program is worth every penny. 

I've got to say it took me a few weeks to make my decision to enroll to this course -not only because the admission fee seems a bit high, but because my job leaves little time for anything else during weekdays.

However, after having finished the course, I don't regret my decision. I've taken other Digital Marketing courses (both online and on-site) and this is easily the best in my experience. The course encompasses all major digital marketing subjects, from social, email, influencer, SEO/SEM to more complex topics such as AI applied to digital marketing. The Office Hours videos provide a chance to interact with actual practicioners from various industries. The course is also an excellent excuse for networking, which is important if you want to transition to the digital marketing world. The capstone project forces you to re-study and apply everything you see throughout the course and unlike other courses, the capstone is graded by the same star faculty that delivers the lessons.

Beware: the course is packed with information and additional mini-certifications that require time and brainpower. It isn't a walk in the park, prepare yourself for many, many weekends doing assignments and studying (at least 13 hours a week.) 

The course is worth every penny, though. I liked it so much that I'm currently taking the other Professional Certificate course available (Product Management.) I'm applying many of the things I learned to my current job, something I cannot say of other courses I've taken.

All in all, if you can afford it, go for it. Be ready to work hard, but also for a gratifying journey.

 

If you need a push to advance as a designer and are seeking a personalized and effective experience, I highly recommend Path Unbound! As a fashion designer transitioning her career to UI/UX design, this course was exactly what I needed to help complete the process. Having completed a Visual Design and Communications course prior to Path Unbound, I was left feeling like I needed extra guidance on re-designing & building my portfolio and my personal brand. This course covers all the essential elements needed to create a stand out portfolio from scratch, from the fundamentals of Webflow, to structuring your projects and organizing your website architecture, to identifying the unique qualities/niches that make you stand out as a designer and inevitably develop your personal brand. I was provided with an easy to follow curriculum, one-on-one sessions with an incredible mentor and industry expert, and even, offered interview and career advice. I am so proud of what I accomplished and can confidently hit the ground running in my new career!

I've been slowly teaching myself to code over the years. 
Then slowly learning game development online with a Udemy course. 
This last fall I decided to really commit to being a builder in the coming Metaverse. I wanted to learn how to actually start working on my own ideas.
At first I was over my head. The pace of the course was crazy, I was learning so much, I was overwhelmed. 
But a few weeks in things started to click.
By the end of the course I surprised myself with what I was able to create for the final project. 
I'm no longer a wannabe VR developer, now I am a VR developer. I still have a long ways to go, but as a developer, not a wannabe developer. :) Thank you XR Terra

I've known Binar Academy from a friend, and this is my first Online and Boothcamp experience ever, so at first I have my own doubts. But after finishing my course, I can confidently say overall it was a great experience for me. From developing new skills to improving my known skills, not only we studied about the course we also have the chance to put the knowledge we gained to practice and work it together as a team, we even have the chance to work together with PM (Project Management) course and gain new insight on how stuff work on corporate level. The only feedback I can give is; Binar App improvement and Facilitator and Staff communication about the chapters challenge. The Rest is EXCEPTIONAL 

I found Kickstart Coding’s course content, instruction, and involvement in my learning process to be really amazing. They totally exceeded my expectations every step of the way!

After graduating from college, I really felt lost and anxious about not being able to find a job. I was looking for a coding bootcamp to review the knowledge I picked up in college and improve my skills. Kickstart Coding looked like it had a solid curriculum at a reasonable price so I decided to give it a try after attending some of their information sessions. 

I recently landed my first front-end developer job two months after starting the course. I can confidently say that I was shocked at how quickly they prepared me for the transition. 

The lessons were really easy to follow along with, and the approach is totally different from anything I experienced before. Instead of overloading me with all kinds of theoretical stuff, Michael focused on the fundamentals of programming, and provided a lot of activities to solidify my knowledge. He covered everything that was required to become a full-stack software engineer, starting with the basics like HTML, CSS, GIT, and Bash, to back-end technologies such as Heroku, Python, and Django, and finished with front-end projects using JavaScript and React. The 1-on-1 lessons were awesome, even if I didn’t always come with questions ahead of time about the course material. We also talked about the tech industry itself, their previous experience as software engineers, their  and my current projects, and a lot more.

The custom-pacing structure was definitely a key factor of my success in landing my first developer job. At my request, Liam started my career activities within the first month of my start date alongside my coding lessons. This was crucial to landing an interview after sending out my first application! 

Liam walked me through how to write resumes and cover letters, how to prepare for interviews, and basically everything I needed to know to feel prepared for the process. Michael would also dedicate time to preparing me for technical interviews. Even after I failed the last round at the first company, Michael and Liam were always encouraging me and pushing me to go beyond my limits and stay motivated. With that said, I landed my first developer job with less than a dozen applications, which I never had been able to do without the help of Michael and Liam.

I can’t stress this strongly enough, the Kickstart Coding bootcamp was worth every penny! It was such an amazing and inclusive environment. There were people totally new to programming alongside more experienced coders who were there to review their skills, and people who had asked for a more tailored curriculum to help them build their passion projects. It was a really special experience for me. I can’t thank them enough. 

I'm happy to have the opportunity of attending the Web3 Bootcamp, which is genuinely an amazing course, covering all the fundamental concepts from Ethereum to polygon, even the abstract and complex ones, and basic solidity codes.
Our tutor was excellent in teaching, making those complex concepts bright by using great tools and visual ideas that could represent the system presented. 

If you’re considering getting into Web3, It’ll be worth it to take this course.

If I could give it more than 5 stars I would! This Data Analytics Bootcamp has changed my life in more ways than one & I will forever be grateful to the instructors for all their hard work & support along the way. I joined this boot camp with no prior experience in the tech world & a bit intimated if I’m being honest. However, the first week of going through this I was shocked at how much of an amazing job the instructors (Media, Mustafa, Mehmet, Ness) did at breaking the material down. During my time I was not only able to easily learn the tools needed to be a successful analyst but was also provided with help to prepare me for the job market (mock interviews, polishing up my resume, networking, etc.) The Data Analytics Instructors truly do go above and beyond for their students & make sure your journey towards becoming an analyst is as smooth as possible. Thankful is an understatement! 

When I was working at TCS, it was my dream to work for a product-based company but the biggest confusion was where to start and what learning path to follow. Somehow I got connected with one of the Mentor at AlgoTutor on Linkedin and he guided me in career transition planning and how AlgoTutor can help me to achieve that. Finally, I joined and it was an awesome journey. From TCS, I reached Morgan Stanley within a year. 

I would like to thank my mentor, instructor, Teaching Assistants, and the whole AlgoTutor team who helped me to achieve the same. Also, I would recommend AlgoTutor to those who are currently in the service sector and planning to move to a product-based company.

Всем привет! Я работаю в графическом дизайне более 8 лет и заинтересовалась веб-дизайном и ИТ. Я наткнулся на рекламу бесплатных марафонов от GOIT, и мне понравился уровень общения с участниками, захватывающие задачи и фактические результаты! Все это побудило меня попробовать курс, и я выбрал дизайн UX/UI. Обучение проводилось онлайн, и было очень удобно учиться, если у меня не было времени на лекции, у меня была запись в моем аккаунте) Мой аккаунт - чудо. Там все: календарь, домашнее задание - я не заблудился) Наставники и кураторы - это фантастика! Я прошел курс прошлой зимой, и почти сразу после курса я получил два заказа на веб-дизайн: разработку целевой страницы и разработку многостраничного веб-сайта. Мне понравилось, что я могу работать и учиться параллельно, мы опробовали знания, которые я получил сразу же в классе на практике, и куратор показал все подробно и привел много реальных примеров из ее опыта в работе - это помогло намного позже. Более того, курс должен был встретиться с другими студентами, и мы поддерживали друг друга в защите наших проектов, взаимные лайки на Behance) Я рад, что меня каким-то образом бросила реклама GOIT в Instagram, и я встретил вас ❤️
