    My take on Wyncode

    There were many schools offering the coding expirience, and through talking with alumni and reviews online Wyncode was the best option to take. I enjoyed the teaching and curriculum was given, also the support was genuine and all the staff actually cared about my learning. Another thing I enjoyed was the people who joined. We were all on the same page and wanted to be the best we could be, not only with learning to code well but just giving all that we could. When being around like minded ...

    Full Stack Web Developer course

    I attended this course 10 weeks ago. I had very little knowledge of code and how to write in certain languages. I am excited to have achieved and accomplished so much in the last 10 weeks. Trade schools such as Wyncode provide all the tools necessary to succeed, however, it is your responsibility to hustle. Go out there and show what you're worth in order to get what you're worth.

    Life Changing Opportunity

    I am really grateful for the life changing resources Wyncode provided me in 2018. It seems like not to long ago when I was reading through these reviews praying for an opportunity to change my career, and here I am today. I graduated in July & was able to start my new career in November with a QA role. It was a privilege to learn coding, growth mindset, and about the tech ecosystem from an amazing team that has a contagious passion for what they do. My onboarding was smooth &...

    BrainStation - Real-World Experience!

    I have nothing but positive things to say about BrainStation! I took Social Media Marketing and loved it.  The learning environment is dynamic and collaborative. We worked in groups to develop social media campaigns that mirrored real-world projects of the same nature. Our instructor, Francesca, was a social media marketing expert who taught us the skills we would need to succeed in this field. She was always available for questions, help and support.  I highly recommend this course and Br...

    A thorough learning experience, an attentive staff, and unparalleled career support!

    I had a fantastic experience at Wyncode academy. The curriculum is designed around building real working projects and getting your hands dirty. For someone with very little modern coding experience (I'd only built a few HTML sites in the days of AOL & dialup), it was somewhat jarring to dive in head first, and my brain felt like a fried egg at first. As you progress through the course, though, it all starts to click. All in all, I would say that it was appropriately grueling in the bes...

    Full stack web development

    I just finished the 10 week Fulll Stack Web Development course and it was an amazing experience! I can't believe how much I learned in such a short amount of time. When they say full time, they're talking on the low end. Clear your schedule for the 10 weeks because you will eat, sleep, and breathe coding. This is without a doubt the hardest thing I've ever done, but it was 100% worth it, and the Wynfam connections you make are worth the price alone. If you're looking for something that wil...

    My instructors Stewart and Tayber) were thorough and as comprehensive as possible. When asked for more critical and in-depth feedback, they were willing to oblige to make us better at our newly-learned skills.
    I found the course content to be reasonable (even less than expected), given that the parttime course was held once a week for 10 weeks.

    Incredible Experience

    I started Wyncode in early August of this year. I can honestly say I've never learned so much from a school in such a short amount of time. Before starting the course, I had never had any programming experience. My background is in music and I was skeptical about how much could really be taught about a subject in just 10 weeks. This school is doing a great service by teaching these skills, and the instructors they have on staff are so articulate and thorough that they make the material eas...
