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...

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 successfully able to complete the course. I worked a full-time job while completing this, which I don't recommend since you'll spend a good chunk of time on campus after hours and weekends for supplement learning. I had many sleepless nights but anything worth fighting for is worth working hard for.
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...

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 online course to get your feet wet, since the material your diving into can be extremely overwhelming at first! If you really like computers you can do this!
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.

I joined Brainstation full time web dev for career change and honestly that have been one of the great chocies I MADE! It have been definitely challenging but all the amazing and supportive Instructor, TA and staff have made this experience one of a kind. We have learned coding from basic HTML, CSS and Javascript all to React, Database server and Express. As John said, program manager, this is the begining for everything. What is your next step?
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!
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.
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...
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 teacher and then as Creative Director for my wife's business, I developed strong research and communication skills, including a keen ability to empathize with my students and later on with our customers. I'm saying all of this because those are the skill sets that I carried with me to Wyncode's program, those are the skills that I leaned on during the program, and those are the skills that landed me the position I'm currently enjoying- Associate Product Manager for a cloud communications company in South Florida.
The learning curve was steep- but I think you have to expect that in a boot camp classroom setting. There are boatloads of information that you will be presented with daily in class. I think it’s imperative to absorb what you can and not set unrealistic expectations of yourself.... you will NOT be a UX/UI guru at the end of the program. Wyncode provides a very solid foundation of basic UX/UI principles, and then it’s up to you to continue practicing and developing those.
The instructor, Gessica, pours out her heart and soul into the class. Given my background in education, I really valued her energy level and passion for the subject matter. The TAs provide added support and guidance during labs. One area for improvement would be additional TAs to ensure more direct (1 on 1) support.
One of the Wyncode's strongest areas is undoubtedly the job placement component. The fact that they guarantee job support for life is pretty dam remarkable! As with the classroom experience, you will get out what you put in (same goes for life!). There are multiple opportunities on a weekly basis to check-in and get structured support during your job search. I do wish that Wyncode were able to keep their relationship with Career Score, as the services they (Career Score) provided were phenomenal.
In summary, if you are a focused, curious, open-minded go-getter, I would 100% recommend Wyncode's UX/UI program. It will challenge you. It will change you. It will empower you.

Brainstation continues to be an excellent experience!
I previously enrolled in the Data Analytics course in late 2018 and had a great time with the instructors (Lindsay & Ahmad). I followed it up with the Data Science course that I have just completed, to further my skills.

I previously enrolled in the Data Analytics course in late 2018 and had a great time with the instructors (Lindsay & Ahmad). I followed it up with the Data Science course that I have just completed, to further my skills. This course was a pretty decent jump from the analytics one as it dives into programming and statistics a little. The course covers all the basics of python and goes as far as to touch on modeling via regression and other means. It does move very quickly and you do need to stay on top of it as it is easy to get lost. The instructors were very knowledgeable with real industry experience and applications. Brainstation and these two courses have given me the foundation to pivot my career into Data Science! Would definitely consider a full-time program in the future!
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.
It has now been over two months since I finished Wyncode's Full Stack Web Development program, and I can honestly say that it was one of the greatest educational experiences of my life.
The sense of community that the people (both past, current) at Wyncode is incredible. It is incredible how the success of one of the students, alumn, or staff is celebrated and credited to their peers.

It has now been over two months since I finished Wyncode's Full Stack Web Development program, and I can honestly say that it was one of the greatest educational experiences of my life.
The sense of community that the people (both past, current) at Wyncode is incredible. It is incredible how the success of one of the students, alumn, or staff is celebrated and credited to their peers.
The curriculum is intense, demanding and time consuming. So definitely be ready to make this your full time job for 10 weeks if you're thinking of attending the program.This is not to say that you won't have help along the way. The TA's at Wyncode are always willing to help you (all you have to do is ask).
It is important to say that people should NOT expect Wyncode to get you a job, they have an amazing hiring network and will always support you with CV reviews, opening leads and introductions, but as it should be, it is the student who has to do the heavy lifting when applying and interviewing.
I recently took the part-time Web Development program in Vancouver. Before starting the course, I did not know how to build a single element of the website even though I was studying coding online. I was looking for a school that offers hands-on project and supportive instructors to strengthen my overall skills, and BrainStation was the one I found.

I recently took the part-time Web Development program in Vancouver. Before starting the course, I did not know how to build a single element of the website even though I was studying coding online. I was looking for a school that offers hands-on project and supportive instructors to strengthen my overall skills, and BrainStation was the one I found.
Instructors, who are currently working in the Tech industry, taught me up-to-date skills of the latest software trends and coding tips. I especially liked there were always two instructors in the class so I could ask questions as much as I wanted. Also, BrainStation supported me to take the course by providing a scholarship and an ambassador program. If someone has a great passion in Tech industry, but the price is the biggest concern, I recommend talking to the staff. They are really helpful.
After taking the course, now I can use different industry tools (Atom, Visual Studio Code, and Chrome Developer Tools), the basic understanding of HTML&CSS, and apply them to build a responsive website. Overall, it was a great experience to study at BrainStation!
