    Over priced and under delivered services.

    Please save your money and go somewhere else. Coding Dojo's Cybersecurity program is overly priced for the very sub-par services they offer. I was excited and assured that you can do this program as a newbie to the tech world. It felt like someone hurriedly threw together the curriculum. I spent my first three months trying to sort through the course work, trying to make sense of sentences that didn't even fit together. It was very poorly structured.  Literally whole paragraphs would not...

    This Bootcamp was worth the investment

    This Bootcamp has very good teachers, they know what they do and where to find the answers to any question (in case they don't know). But they really understand the realms  of Data Science. I was so afraid to join and be left behind but the instructors and TAs were always there to help me push through. I didn't want it to end but Its time to find a job and continue now.

    Top Tier Bootcamp

    Coding dojo was such a great experience. Had little coding knowledge but by the end of the boot camp I felt confident in getting into the software development field. The courses were very detailed, included lots of support, and the instructors were patient, involved and available. The assignments were definitely helpful in learning each stack. We also get life time career services, who help with finding a job, resume building, interview coaching, etc. Would recommend to anyone looking to...

    Wonderful

    So there are some pros and cons and they are actually the same but opposite sides. 

    The 3 stack program is amazing to get a few different languages under your belt and see what you like. But on the flip side that can hinder you from learning deeper into the language. As for me, I like having the more languages. It gave me more of a feel of what I wanted to do. I thought I wanted to do front end but quickly realized I did not like that approach.

    don't do it

    There are better bootcamps out there. Find one that won't charge you tuition until you get employed!! Then you know its guaranteed. There's nothing worse than paying 14k for a *full time immersive* bootcamp and nothing to show for it. The teachers are ok, but you'll still be helpless and clueless after the bootcamp. Most of them are just graduates from this bootcamp who couldnt get a job FYI. And the lifetime of career services?? Its garbage too. Seriously, if you're here reading this, F...

    Coding Dojo is a family that help you achieved new skills at the same time improve as a human being, have fun and learn that the way to be reach through too you need to be humble .

    ✅: great support from instructor, teaching assistants and classmates.

    ❌: The platform should be update with the latest software. The platform should be more completed so students can fully be prepared to work on a company.

    I definitely wouldn't be where I am without the bootcamp. 
    They do a great job of trying to pack a lot into the 14 weeks and the community you build really helps you stay on track and motivated. Quick thing that I'd like to mention is that the pros and cons below are going to be outweighed by your ability to commit and work hard.

    I took this bootcamp because I wanted to improve my data science/ programming skills. My background is in International Business and I am switching into this field. I found it great! I was a beginner in programming without a background in math, computer science or statistics so I wanted to try a bootcamp where some previous knowledge was not required. Coding Dojo helps you with a week of pre-bootcamp and then you start the whole bootcamp. I really liked that since the beginning people co...

    Software Development Full-Time Online Review

    Coding Dojo is one of six coding bootcamps I researched when I first decided to make a career change and move into programming. While I was making my decision to attend I found the staff to be pleasant, engaging, and capable. They always answered me promptly and referred me to sources that would help if they didn't directly/immediately know themselves. I ultimately decided to attend based on that and on the program they offered... it was one of the few that provided study in more than on...

    A solid choice if you are starting in tech or want to change careers. The staff is great, the curriculum is challenging but fair. You will learn so much and be such a better developer afterwards. The environment is welcoming and respect and instructors help you along the way. If you're on the fence choose this school.

    The Coding Dojo experience was one of the hardest things I've ever done. It pushed me to my limit. But I loved it. The Dojo has so much to offer. They have amazing scheduling options, so much learning support - from instructors to TAs, great online community, user-friendly learning platform, reading & video materials, lectures from multiple instructors, and great career services support. There's so much to learn and it's going to require more time than you think but it's so worth it....

    This is the Bootcamp that you need to level up your skills, it is intense, and you should work hard to get your belt. 
    Professors are the best in their field, always available, always kind and if they can't the professor's assistants have availability. You can set up a meeting with them to solve every issue that you have. My experience is in Full Stack Python part-time but it isn't part-time cause it is so intense and worthful, you should dedicate enough time to pass the belt exams at...
