If your goal is to get a handle on web development in a supportive environment full of living beings I think you will be well served. Much of the information may be available on-line for next to nothing, but still there is something about being in a class with real students and instructors that is particuarly motivating. It clearly is not meant to be as immersive or intensive as an 8 hour a day course as it is 3 hours 1 day a week plus whatever time you put into it outside of class. Anyone going into should understand this and not expect miracles - although I am impressed by what I am able to do now!
By neccessity the course focuses on a few big technologies, namely HTML5, CSS and Bootstrap with a touch of JS. There is no job assistance in this part-time course which is understood going in. It's geared towards projects rather than tests - so it's up to you to use what you learn - no grades are given. The course leaders are often soliciting input from students in order to improve the material and delivery and I think with this intention to improve, it should only get better with time.
I chose to attend BrainStation's Digital Marketing class because the part time evening hours fit my full-time work schedule, and I attended a workshop where I got a taste of their interactive teaching style.
What I didn't expect was for BrainStation to surpass my expectations entirely. The class has 3 instructors that are all highly knowedgeable in the fields, as well as expremely passionate about sharing what they know. My classmates are from all levels - some are starti...
I chose to attend BrainStation's Digital Marketing class because the part time evening hours fit my full-time work schedule, and I attended a workshop where I got a taste of their interactive teaching style.
What I didn't expect was for BrainStation to surpass my expectations entirely. The class has 3 instructors that are all highly knowedgeable in the fields, as well as expremely passionate about sharing what they know. My classmates are from all levels - some are starting a business, some have marketing experience, and some are students fresh out of school. Yet they've taken the time to learn what our individual class wants to learn, and tailored the lessons and activities to the needs of our class. Plus, there's one on one time to work on our individual "projects".
If you take tis course, I highly suggest you come in with a project in mind, whether it's promoting your own business, starting a blog, whatever. It'll help you focus the lessons and help guide your questions and what you want to learn. You'll get the most out of your experience this way.
The way BrainStation's classes are structutred are exceptional! The instructors really make sure you understand the lecture and since the classes are generally small, there is a lot of opportunity to ask questions and clarfy concepts. Even the classmates I had were driven and passionate making BrainStation an even better environment to work in. The instructors are extremely knowledgable and try to make the class as enjoyable as possible. I loved the BrainStation...

I loved the BrainStation experience and I am definitely returning in the Fall to further my digital skills!!
What I liked best about BrainStation was the relaxed atmosphere in the classroom. It was really laid back and collaborative. Instead of the teacher talking for 3 straight hours, there was a lesson, and then we had time to work on our projects and ask questions. All the learning was hands on and I applied most things I learned directly to my project. Everyone else in the class was friendly and gave me lots of feedback on my work.

I'm taking BrainStation's Digital Marketing course and so far it's been awesome. I'm a university student, so BrainStation is a breath of fresh air. I'm used to lectures with hundreds of students and 1 instructor. My Digital Marketing class at BrainStation is about as far from that as possible. The class is small and we have 3 instructors.

I love being able to collaborate with the other students on projects and bounce ideas off each other. Everyone is friendly and eager to learn, which makes class a lot of fun. Instead of dreading lectures like I do at university, I can't wait for my classes once a week.
It's hard to sum up my experience at Wyncode. It was definitely one of the hardest and most gratifying 9 weeks of my life. Within that short time you will learn the basics and fundementals of web development and more importantly teach yourself how to continue learning well beyond the program, meeting amazing people all along the way. The pressure to do well is entirely in your hands, though, and that can either drive you, or cripple you. That being said, if you stick to it no...

The pressure to do well is entirely in your hands, though, and that can either drive you, or cripple you. That being said, if you stick to it not giving up when it gets hard, than you will walk away with so much more than you might have expected. It can change the way you live your life.
I recently graduated from a local State University with a marketing and business background. However, I wasn't fulfilled with the work I was doing and realized I wanted to learn new skills and better equipt myself for my professional career. I did my research and decided to commit to the Wyncode program.

Wyncode has been one of the most challenging yet rewarding experiences I've gone through. I had no previous coding experience and was able to obtain my goals. I highly recommend this program to anyone!
Wyncode, with its disruptive learning environment, throws you headfirst into an intensive and stimulating experience. The staff is supportive and encouraging - especially Walter! He had an amazing presence in our class, always passionate about our learning and keeping our spirits high.

Wyncode is only a year old, so there is room for some refactoring and rearrangement of the curriculum but overall it was a life changing experience and I met so many amazing, wonderful people along the way.
Wyncode is an incredible program that in just 9 weeks teaches the fundamentals of programming and gives you a strong base in coding so you can keep learning. This program helps not only in your technical skills but also in your business basics. They will definitely help you land a great job.

As a startup co-founder I wanted to learn how to code and not feel cheated when I talked to developers (just because I did not have an idea what they were talking about). After this course I feel able to code and keep learning to make a better product for my company.
So, if you are willing to quit your job (if it applies), sleep less than 6 hours per day (sitting in a computer) or listen to a class that you barely can understand, you are ready to do Wyncode. You learn how to build stuff and to know how stuff is made, start making your own projects, and work in an awesome environment. This is the right place to do it in Miami.
Cheers!
Before Wyncode I was in an IT career fixing computers, which I enjoyed and solved problems, but it was not self-fulfilling and the environment itself I was not a fan of. From the pitch day of the previous Wyncode I knew I wanted to be a part of what was going on in Miami. Once I started at Wyncode I knew I wasn't looking back.

The Wyncode program is very daunting while the course is in progress. But, it's like that for a reason. All the stress you're put under to learn and build all at the same time is done so that you can show what you can create once you dig deep. This isn't for everyone, you must be determined, and you must love to code.
I have nothing but great things to say about Wyncode. The staff, the alumni, everyone apart of Wyncode is a part of one big family, and everyone is always eager to help if you have a problem. It really is something to completely change your life for the better. Wyncode will immerse you in a new enviornment that only leaves room for you to prosper.
Wyncode may seem intimidating for those staring into it from the front gates, but as an Alum, take it from me: "Wyncode Produces Quality Programmers."
In a very short amount of time, less than a typical SINGLE class (9 Weeks) ANYONE can learn the true fundamentals of coding, and what it takes to make a career of it. Wyncode accelerated everything about me. My business expertise, my coding knowledge (Troubleshooting Knowledge), and my own character development. Its ...

In a very short amount of time, less than a typical SINGLE class (9 Weeks) ANYONE can learn the true fundamentals of coding, and what it takes to make a career of it. Wyncode accelerated everything about me. My business expertise, my coding knowledge (Troubleshooting Knowledge), and my own character development. Its truly amazing that in such a short amount of time, a program exists that can put you in a whole new world, where you are truly capable of calling the shots. The empowerment of having options and skills that are desired and believe me... THEY ARE DESIRED.
Go wyncode, and go everyone who is considering it or anyother bootcamp!
Besides knowing how to embed custom music-players back in the early-MySpace days, I had zero experience with code. I feel more accomplished right now than when I graduated from FIU (Florida International University) with my B.A. In today's world, it feels like getting a degree from a college that isn't in the top 20 is subpar. A lot of people are growing increasingly desensitized to these pieces of paper. I personally hide mine because, to me, it's a reminder of how&...
Besides knowing how to embed custom music-players back in the early-MySpace days, I had zero experience with code. I feel more accomplished right now than when I graduated from FIU (Florida International University) with my B.A. In today's world, it feels like getting a degree from a college that isn't in the top 20 is subpar. A lot of people are growing increasingly desensitized to these pieces of paper. I personally hide mine because, to me, it's a reminder of how lazy and unmotivated I was to get the thing. What Wyncode has done for each of their students (especially me) is give them something to feel proud about. Something to feel good about. Something to talk about. Wyncode is yielding clear and concise results indicating that unbundling education isn't the future, it's the present! We're at the forefront of it all with Wyncode in South Florida, and it couldn't have been more of an honor to be one of the first students to go through this life altering program. I'm excited to see what the future holds for all of us, and I hope to make the Miami Tech community (and Wyncode) proud one day. I recieved 3 job offers within the first week after the course. I'm in a unique position, and for the first time in my life I feel like an asset to a company (let alone three companies.)
I couldn't be more thankful to the amazing people at Wyncode for providing me with the tools to change my life. Shout out to Ed, Jo, Juha, Diego, Frank, Walter, and Bryce. #WYNNING
Wyncode is the sort of experience that changes people. We are not the same when we leave as when we entered. In just 9 weeks time Wyncode will give you the skills to be a truly valuable member of any development team, or even to go off and create your own path. From a solid curriculum to tireless efforts at job placement, Wyncode does it all, but what is most valuable is their commitment to the people that come through their doors.
I made a really tough decision to drop everything I was doing in life and take a chance on Wyncode. I'm glad I made that choice and I can proudly say that I am a web developer being hired before even finishing the course. I had a great experience at wyncode. They had great course material and the instructors and staff were amazing. It's a tough nine weeks but if you stick with it you will learn how to do some amazing things.
I came into this course not knowing a single thing about coding. At most I had a wordpress site that I had purchased, and didn't know a single thing about how to use it or even change a background color. At first, I was nervous about not being able to learn and grasp the concepts. I tried all the online courses like codeschool.com and codeacademy.com, even some treehouse stuff, but I still couldn't tell the difference between a hash and my elbow.

Day one opens the door to what you will be learning, and the instructors are your tour guides. The resources they give you both in class and outside of class are priceless. You have direct access to the instructor, and he will take his time and ensure that you know whats going on and why. Whatever the tuition cost I would of paid double, becuase the skills I learned in those 9 weeks has helped me continue to learn outside of the course.
First of all I would like to state that these reviews are in fact from wyncode Grads & Alumni (just because it is the first thing I would wonder if I was a perspective student reading this) and anyone can feel free to reach out to me at Jackbgraham2@gmail.com with questions.

Wyncode came by extremely honest with what I would be taught and how I would move forward afterwords. On top of personally and carefully seeing each one of the students through the actual course, they also continued to offer a tremendous ammount of both technical and personal support after we graduated. I would and have definitely suggest any Wyncode source to anyone intelligent and driven enough to complete it.
1 year perspective of an Alumni and Teaching Assistant of Wyncode Academy
I could go on about the positives and negatives of Wyncode, but the 5 stars and positive words mean next to nothing when it comes to what it is that Wyncode has provided to me and many others that I have seen go through this course.

1 year perspective of an Alumni and Teaching Assistant of Wyncode Academy
I could go on about the positives and negatives of Wyncode, but the 5 stars and positive words mean next to nothing when it comes to what it is that Wyncode has provided to me and many others that I have seen go through this course.
What did I see Wyncode as before I enrolled?
I had no coding experience - I was a chef. I've always had aspirations to do a lot, however I had not means to achieve anything. When I first heard of Wyncode I saw it as an opportunity to learn a skill set that I can create my own opportunities from.
What was Wyncode as a Student?
Every day was 100%, this was Wyncode's 1st cohort and I had no idea what to expect as far as structure and ability to learn from the curriculum; I saw this as an opportunity to use the resources around me and never get my mind off of my goal. As the course went on I never had a shortage of resources, Bryce and Ed were my go-to beacons for all knowledge. And When I didn't understand some code they wrote I was never afraid of asking them to explain, and they always did with very precise detail. But at the end I only got as much as I did from the course because I gave it my every being - Wyncode was my life for 9 weeks, no social life, no school, no work, just code.
What was Wyncode as an Alumni?
A new family. Now this is the really corny part - but it's true, you'll hear it time and time again. This is a bootcamp, we've all be through it, we all know what it's like, we help eachother out. The Wyncode Alumni network is massive and it's only increasing in size, most of the tech companies I know of have a student I've met through Wyncode.
What was Wyncode as a Teaching Assistant?
I've spent most of my time at Wyncode as a teaching assistant, first as a part time TA and then a few cohorts later as a full time Lead Teaching Assistant.
From the end of the first cohort Johanna and Juha asked me what I wanted to do after the cohort ended (job wise), and everytime I would persistantly tell them I wanted to be part of Wyncode. I fell in love with their vision and the tools that were given to me, I knew I had the skills to be able to teach students all that I had learned.
I had helped teach cohorts 2-5, and from that time range I noticed an extreme change in Wyncode's structure and curriculum. Because the staff believes so much in Wyncode's vision they constantly have improvement in mind - "What are we missing from the curriculum", "How can we teach more effectively", "What can we do for students falling behind", "What are hiring partners looking for".
Conclusion aka TL;DR
To re-state the title of this review "The start to an entire new chapter", before Wyncode I was a part time student at MDC and a full time chef and did not enjoy what I was doing - I was always frustrated and tired.
Now I am a full stack developer - my only limit is how much I am willing to push myself to grow, I don't need a 4year degree to show my skill, my work and my knowledge speak for me.
If you are driven, and if you are ready to change what you do - enroll for Wyncode.
If you enroll for Wyncode, be ready to give it everything. Throughout my year of involvement at Wyncode I've seen so many students come though and the ones who have done well are those who made those 9 weeks their life.
You can't make excuses, the results speak for themselves.
Enroll, get prepared, put in everything, carve your own path in life.
