Le Wagon

My experience with Le Wagon’s AI bootcamp was fantastic. The quality of the online courses, the physical spaces, and actually all small details were well-thought-out and top-notch. The instructors were knowledgeable, kind, and always ready to help, creating an incredible community. I especially appreciated the hands-on approach and the availability of the teachers. The program provides a solid foundation in AI. Thanks to the bootcamp, I now feel confident creating AI algorithms. I highly recommend Le Wagon to anyone interested in learning AI in a supportive and high-quality environment! Read less

Honestly, I'd probably give this boot camp four stars. I did hate all the emojis and the words of encouragement saying you're now a "machine learning engineer" or a "Data Scientist", because let's face it, you're not. That's the reason for the one star. In the post 2022 market, completing a bootcamp isn't going to help you  "change your life, break into tech". Just go onto the CS subreddits. You might actually be better off leaving the bootcamp experience off your resume as the market is oversaturated right now. If you're asking for job placement rates, be sure to ask for 2023 or 2024 stats, and in particular the roles people got. The marketing materials often highlight graduates who ended up at say a top company, failing to mention that 1) they were previously employed at a similar company in a different role, and 2) they graduated before 2022. 

If you have 7k to spend and are just looking for a cool experience, go for it. If you're looking for a job, pick a different industry or do a legit MSCS or MSDS. Gatech's online Masters is about the same price as the bootcamp, but you'll have an actual degree. Nonetheless, even with a Master's finding a job will be an uphill battle. Good luck! Read less

My bootcamp at Le Wagon was an intensive and instructive experience that helped me a lot both professionally and personally. The structure of the programme was very well thought out and enabled a clear and understandable learning process. I found the mixture of theory and practice particularly positive, as we were able to apply what we had learnt directly in projects.

The teachers were extremely competent and supportive. They were always at our side when questions arose and helped us to think independently and find solutions. I particularly appreciated the challenge of working in a team, as this not only developed my technical skills, but also my social skills.

The final project was particularly intense, but also incredibly rewarding. It was impressive how much I learnt in such a short time and how much I was able to improve my skills. Overall, the bootcamp was challenging but very motivating. I would recommend it to anyone who is ready to fully commit to learning and is looking for an exciting challenge. Read less

Educating, intense and rich source of materials. The TAs are vastly experienced and always ready and willing to help. The lectures are educative and well explained. The videos could so with a step by step practical demonstration where a learner can follow on a second screen. Read less

This is one of the most intense learning I have had. I found myself studying in some evenings or during the weekend. However it is all worth it! The learning curriculum covers all essentials to gain a holistic view for web development, from front-end, back-end, tools, platforms, a bit of product development. I transformed from a non-coder to a coder --- which all thanks to this intensive 12 weeks. I love the setting of live lecture - challenges - live code mechanism. The challenges everyday were well selected and relevant to the course. It helps me learn and apply for what I learnt. The lecturers and TAs(teacher assistants) were really helpful as well. Project weeks were the highlight where I got the chance to work on real projects and make an application functional, but these were also the most intense weeks as well. At the end of the bootcamp, we got one extra week for career, where we can update our CV, LinkedIn, Github pages and get ourselves job search ready. Overall I am very satisfied with it. One concern I have to the curriculum is that we didn't learn enough javascript which is the most popular language at the job market right now. Read less

From the start, it's a very intensive learning environment, but it's completely worth it if you give the time and dedication. While probably possible to get everything done in the 9 am - to 6 pm course hours, I needed to assign a lot more time to properly understand the content. This was made easier by all lecture recordings being made available in advance so I could always watch one before the live lecture as preparation. 
The project weeks give great insight into the process of developing an app from scratch (Web Dev BootCamp) from the idea conception to launch into production and valuable skills like code review and coding in a team.
The careers team are very helpful too, they have sessions throughout the BootCamp and also after you graduate. You also remain part of the LW slack channel and have contact with all of the shared channels to reach out to other alumni.
I secured a place on the government-funded BootCamp so didn't have to pay for it, I'm not sure if I would have fronted up the money at the start of the BootCamp (due to my financial situation) but it has the potential to be a valuable investment if you make the most of the resources made available to you over it's duration.  Read less

Attending Le Wagon was one of the most challenging yet rewarding experiences of my career. Going into the bootcamp, I knew it would be intense, but the depth of learning, the supportive community, and the practical skills I gained exceeded my expectations. Course Content and Structure
The curriculum was well-organized and focused on building real-world skills. We started with the basics, like data structures and the fundamentals, then progressed to SQL, Python, Power BI and lots more. One of the highlights was the final project, where we worked in teams to work on different projects using real Data. It was amazing to see how much we could create after just a few weeks.

But looking back, the struggle was worth it! I grew both technically and personally. I learned how to problem-solve, and handle complex coding tasks. Skills Gained
I came away from the bootcamp with solid skills in SQL, Python, Looker Studio and Power BI, along with a better understanding of how to work collaboratively in a tech setting. I feel prepared to tackle new challenges and continue growing in my career. Career Support and Outcomes
Le Wagon’s career support was a great asset. We had workshops on interview preparation, networking, and creating a standout resume. I also connected with alumni and mentors who gave valuable insights into the tech industry. The bootcamp has definitely opened doors for me, and I'm confident about my job prospects moving forward. Advice for Future Students
Be prepared to put in the work. The bootcamp is intense, so it’s essential to stay organized, keep up with daily coding challenges, and don’t hesitate to ask for help. If you're dedicated and willing to learn, Le Wagon can be a life-changing experience. Overall
I highly recommend Le Wagon for anyone serious about launching a career in tech. It’s an intensive program that requires dedication, but the skills and confidence you gain make it worth every moment. Read less

Absolutely jam packed 3 months intensive ride to change my life. 
I've learned sooo much. Not for the faint hearted - it really is super demanding. 
9am sharp start: you get taught for 2 hours every morning and then get thrown into challenging tasks.
6pm: finish after a full day's work.
Really importantly: TA's are on hand to help and explain. So you're never stuck and never need to be lost.

Group Project: was fun, frustrating and challenging, a learning experience - but ultimately sooo enjoyable in delivering.

I'd recommend to absolutely everyone. Read less

Le Wagon helped me achieve a goal that I didnt 100% think I could accomplish. The bootcamp is very intense but following the structure and trusting the process, everything begins to fall into place. The Teachers at Le wagon are incredible, all of them love what they do and it quickly become infectious, no question is too small and nothing ever goes unanswered. The support nextwork helps you build confidence and encouragesyou to really challenge yourself.  Read less

Superbe expérience au Wagon. 
Pour celles et ceux qui cherchent un bootcamp efficace, je ne peux que conseiller sans réserve le Wagon. 
Avec toutes les offres qui existent sur le marché c'est compliqué de s'y retrouver !
Alors pourquoi ?
Comme vous avant, j'ai cherché sur le web une formation sérieuse pour apprendre les bases de Data Science. 

Une journée type au wagon
- Tous les matins nous avons un cours 
- Exo tout le long de la journée où l'on peut demander de l'aide à un prof (j'insiste sur ce dernier point) 
- le soir récap avec un live code 
- petit bonus, en fin de bootcamp, il y a un projet à monter en équipe(ça c'était vraiment cool)

Mon expérience perso : 
Je ne savais même pas ce qu'était Python avant de commencer ! 
Mon objectif était de monter en compétence grâce à la compréhension technique de l'IA et de la science des données (la partie mathématique). 
Je viens de 19ans de commerce et de marketing et je voulais apprendre à automatiser mes recherches de data pour gagner en performance. 
La formation est très intense et assez difficile, je ne le cache pas. 
Si vous êtes du genre à être humble, à accepter de ne pas comprendre des fois, à demander de l'aide et si vous êtes bosseur alors cette formation est faite pour vous ! 

A la fin de ce bootcamp, je sais coder, je sais corriger mes problèmes et je sais monter un projet de A et Z en toute confiance et en parfaite autonomie. 
Je ne cache pas que j'ai eu des moments de doutes mais j'ai continué à travailler et à demander de l'aide quotidiennement au prof. 
J'insiste sur ce point car c'est vraiment le point fort de ce bootcamp.
D'ailleurs les profs sont très compétents, bienveillants et pédagogues. C'est totalement insane. 
On n'est jamais seul, toujours une personne pour vous aider, vous accompagner à trouver la réponse. 

Le service administratif est très présent pour vous soutenir tout du long de votre formation. 

C'était un batch d'été 2024 en petit groupe de 7. 
J'ai vécu une très très belle expérience. 

J'espère que ma review permettra à d'autres de se lancer dans l'aventure et à prendre un ticket pour le prochain Wagon. Read less

Le Wagon has created an exceptional learning environment that fosters not only technical growth but also personal and professional development. The emphasis on community, collaboration, and real-world experience makes it an outstanding bootcamp for anyone serious about a career in tech. Read less

Le Wagon Web Development program is incredibly fast and thorough at the same time. Great experience at Le Wagon Marseille, with experienced and practical teachers. The lectures are very straight-to-the-point which make them easy to follow and remember, the exercises are tough but well-built and teachers are always there to help. The best way to learn I think !!!  Read less

At first, I was skeptical of the choice of Ruby on Rails as the main language but now having graduated, I'm convinced it was the right decision. For those who are new to programming, this is the best direction you can start with. It might limit your opportunities, but if you are serious about finding a job in SWE then your portfolio should continue to be diversified post-bootcamp either way.
Career and learning resources after graduating are great and the community is global and super welcoming. 
My only complaint with the curriculum was not including a lecture on testing and CI/CD tools (but there are still internal resources you can study after). Read less

I recently completed a web development bootcamp, and I enjoyed it a lot. The program provided all theory needed and hands-on experience, that in my opion is the most important thing, covering everything from HTML and CSS to JavaScript and backend development. The instructors were the smartests teachers I have ever had and were super supportive, making complex concepts easy to grasp. I appreciated the collaborative environment, as it allowed me to build real-world projects and improve my coding skills. The bootcamp was only in 2 and a half months and was so much information that I couldn't belive that I would grasp it so quickly, but they made it happen. Overall, it was a rewarding and transformative experience that has boosted my confidence in web development and prepared me for future challenges in the tech world.  Read less

I don't think anything could have gone better. 
I played around with some CSS before the BootCamp which came in handy for a day when CSS was the topic, but each day we covered a new topic which also helped us recap what we had learned the day before.
Working in the daily assigned pairs also really helped me reach out for help from my peers and get to know other people's strengths and weaknesses.
I felt like there was a good balance of checking in and independence so on days I struggled, getting help was very easy, and on the days I found it easy I could just work through and help out my partner if something came up. 
I don't have any other BootCamp experiences, but in comparison to tighter education, there was very clear set goals and it was very clear if you were on track or not. Read less

The Le Wagon process as a whole was amazing, building up our technical skills bit by bit and adding up pressure towards the end. The 90% practice / 10% theory paradigm was without a doubt the best teaching paradigm I've ever faced. The Kitt Learning Platform and the Python Notebooks are clearly tailor-made for the process. No school I've enrolled in the past has been so devoted to creating such a sound experience that ties together from beginning to end. Le Wagon has provided me with the best learning process in my life, and I'm including here college experience from my Undergraduate and Master's Degree and several other short-term courses in and out of the technology domain.
