    Full Stack Developer

    This program is 10 weeks. The first 5 is front and the seconf half is backend. Any "bootcamp" is ofcourse not easy, but Wyncode offers optimal support. The professors are always available and they also have teaching assistants who have graduated in the sme program so it super convenient. The program manager is nice. The founders are there sometimes and it never feels weird. Overall the culture alone is really good. I joined with no technical background, just an interest and I was successfu...

    Wyncode changed my life!

    I came to Wyncode with no code experince and in 15 weeks I learned HTML, CSS, JAVASCRIPT, REACT and RUBY. The instructors are so supportive, the projects are challenging and force you to grow int this new position. I am not going to lie this is one of the hardest experirences I've ever been through. Yet the most rewarding in my profesional career. Now I start my journey as a full stack web developer and I can't wait. I highly recommend Wyncode. I would suggest that first you complete an on...

    LIFE CHANGING

    Wyncode was life changing, as a person that came straight from high school. I definetely learned more in ten weeks then in four years. I fell in love with the school, my classmates, and staff. They are super supportive and always ready to help. Especially the TA's, even when they're not working you can always slack them for help and they'll always get back to you as soon as they can. I would 100% recommend Wyncode to anyone that truly wants to become a coder.

    I had a positive experience at Wyncode. It was a firehose of knowledge. I wish I had done more prep work leading into the bootcamp, I felt like I was playing a lot of catchup in the beginning.

    Pitching my idea with a team who elected to be a part of a "Acorns for Bitcoin" app was an exiliarting and satisfying feeling I'll never forget. The relationships I made, the tools and tricks I learned here helped jumpstart a career in freelance web development.

    Great experience

    I finished full-time UX UI designer course in September. Overall, it was a great experience. Gessica - teacher, and all teachers assistants were very supportive throughout the course and after course ended. Without any previous experience in design, in 8 weeks I gain a new set of skills and was able to get hired shortly after graduation. Also, they were very helpful with the whole job hunt process. Would definitely recommend!

    Great experience

    I had no experience in ux or anything in tech. I read reviews about wyncode and spoke to Francis and decided to give it a go.  The start of class, I had no idea what even a ux strategy was, now 8 weeks later and thanks to Gessica (the head instructor of UX/UI) I am now a certified ux designer. I graduated in November and within a few weeks, I have had three interviews. Wyncode was a great experience and I truly believe I wouldn’t have been as successful if I went somewhere else.

    Never Stop Learning!

    I'm a proud alum of Wyncode's UX/UI Immersive, having graduated in July of 2018. Going into the program, I had zero graphic design experience- to be honest I had only learned of what UX/UI was a few months before applying! The bulk of my professional background was in youth development and teaching (shout out to TFA). I left the classroom in 2016 to join forces with my wife in helping to run the small culinary business she established in South Florida. As a teac...

    Digital Marketing Course

    The digital marketing course offered by BrainStation was an excellent generalized overview of the industry. The course gave insights into many aspects that go into creating a successful digital experience for a brand/company. The instructors were amazing, helpful and truly made the subject matter interesting! They helped accompany the syllabus with experiences from their own careers within the industry.

    The best for digital marketing.

    I took digital marketing at BrainStation as a way to introduce myself to the digital world, something I hadn't touched at my previous company but was extremely important at my new one.  It was a great way to learn broadly about topics ranging from social to SEO to website and everything in between.  The teachers are great and the content is relevant. Would highly recommend this to anyone looking to dip their toes in the digital marketing world or diversify their digital knowledge.

    So you're sitting around trying to decide if you should do the Wyncode UX/UI Immersive program. The answer is that you absolutely should. You're probably thinking:
