Founded in Portugal in 2015, Code for All_ is a social impact startup that offers 14-week intensive and immersive Full Stack Programming Bootcamps.

An Amazing Experience
The bootcamp is very intense, you really have to come prepared for 14 weeks of having time for not much more than the activities that involve the bootcamp.
Sleeping is essential but there are times where you wont get much of it.
In the end you'll be ready to engage the job market and you'll learn to learn. In the end approaching new languages and tools won't be as much of a challenge. - Marlon de AzevedoCadet • Student • 14-Week Intensive & Immersive Full-Stack Programming Bootcamp • LisbonAug 25, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

3,5 months that feel like 10, but also feel like 1!
It's crazy.
You learn so much in such a short span of time, that one week can feel like a lot of time.
However, it is so intense and immersive (all you think about while you're in the bootcamp) that time flies. - Eunice PintoGraduate • 14-Week Intensive & Immersive Full-Stack Programming Bootcamp • PortoAug 21, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Amazing
It was the best choice I could have made. The Code Academy is simply amazing! From the very first day, I was warmly welcomed, feeling as if I were at home. The course is extremely intensive, there's a set schedule to start, but there's no set time to finish. Every second of this experience is meant to be cherished because it's unique. I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to everyone who was part of this incredible adventure. - RovereGraduate • 14-Week Intensive & Immersive Full-Stack Programming Bootcamp • PortoAug 19, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Awesome
One of the best experiences I’ve been part.
The staff it’s amazing and super helpful.
The bootcamp its intense but rewarding.
For 14-weeks they really deliver what they promised that you will learn how to code and be ready to get into this field.
Overall a great experience. - João PereiraGraduate • 14-Week Intensive & Immersive Full-Stack Programming Bootcamp • PortoAug 19, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Best decision ever!
I gladly recommend this bootcamp to anyone who really wants to learn how to code, if you're in doubt it's not worth it. Really intensive and challenging bootcamp (not for the faint hearted) where you'll learn how to be a Fullstack Developer in 3 1/2 months (yes, it's possible). Lots of exercises and challenges that will put you on the edge of your seat (and mental stability aswell) but very rewarding in the end. Best decision of my life! - BeatrizStudent • Graduate • 14-Week Intensive & Immersive Full-Stack Programming Bootcamp • LisbonAug 18, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Life-transforming bootcamp experience with inspirational teaching, practical learning, and a vibrant community
My experience with this bootcamp has been incredibly transformative. Master Coder Christina, one of the finest educators I've encountered, has been a major source of inspiration throughout. The emphasis on practical learning has been fantastic, giving me hands-on experience that has boosted my confidence. While the curriculum is strong, a few important topics could use revisiting.

Master Coder Christina, one of the finest educators I've encountered, has been a major source of inspiration throughout. The emphasis on practical learning has been fantastic, giving me hands-on experience that has boosted my confidence. While the curriculum is strong, a few important topics could use revisiting.
The sense of community is vital here, fostering a collaborative learning environment. I've gained skills to create my own games and applications, a testament to the program's effectiveness. Success is the result of hard work, a principle applicable in any field. Job assistance is solid, offering guidance, though landing a job requires personal effort.
In summary, this bootcamp has been life-changing for me. The educators dedication is unmatched, and the overall experience rates a solid 10 out of 10. I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone eager to dive into programming and embark on an inspiring journey. - Leith AtiaGraduate • 14-Week Intensive & Immersive Full-Stack Programming Bootcamp • LisbonAug 18, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

Absolutely and completely worh it
You have to put in the work, it's intensive for a reason, but the course is built entirely to help and focus us on the journey.
It's a perfect opportunity to learn whole new programming languages, and exercise them directly after.
The structure of the course is great for keeping the students engaged.
The teachers really do put in their best efforts, and it really shows. They can teach even a layman concepts that are completely new to them.
I recommend it! - Daniel Augusto Barreto GuerreiroGraduate • 14-Week Intensive & Immersive Full-Stack Programming Bootcamp • LisbonAug 18, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
A fulfilling experience
It was the most fulfilling learning experience of my life so far!
They have an amazing, judgement-free learning environment that allows us learn properly.
It is, still, quite intensive and you do need to do your best to keep up, but even if you can't, you have the master coders there to help you through it!
10/10 experience! - João António Marreiros VieiraJunior Fullstack Developer • Graduate • 14-Week Intensive & Immersive Full-Stack Programming Bootcamp • LisbonAug 18, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

Through this enriching tenure, I delved into the art of coding, unraveling the intricacies of languages that power the digital realm.

The spectrum of experiences woven into this chapter has been nothing short of remarkable, shaping me into a more evolved individual.
The metamorphosis I've undergone during my tenure resonates deeply. Mastery over coding languages has unlocked the door to the digital realm, equipping me with a potent toolset to navigate the tech landscape. The art of delivering impactful presentations has become second nature, allowing me to articulate ideas with eloquence and conviction.
Beyond the technical realm, the tapestry of friendships I've cultivated here has been a source of unwavering support and inspiration. Each interaction has broadened my perspective, exposing me to diverse worldviews and igniting intellectual discussions that have enriched my own beliefs.
As I reflect on this transformative phase, I'm reminded that every challenge surmounted, every skill acquired, and every connection forged has contributed to my evolution. Armed with this newfound knowledge and a treasure trove of memories, I step onto the next stage of my journey with confidence.
In retrospect, this chapter has been a symphony of experiences, harmonizing the acquisition of skills with personal connections. It's a crescendo that has not only expanded my proficiency but has also added colors to the canvas of my life. - João Paulo Avelar SilveiraGraduate • 14-Week Intensive & Immersive Full-Stack Programming Bootcamp • LisbonMay 09, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
