I will say that related previous careers like design, psychology, information architecture, software development, etc will help you out a lot more than if you have no related previous experience. The only bad thing I can say about the program is that it's marketed as a education-to-hire, and this is not the case. There's no guaranteed job at the end of the program. You have to work and network in order to get a job in a new industry (if that's the case), but it's the same concept as in the program itself, you have to work hard and be passionate about it.

Full Stack Web Development Program
Wyncode is the best bootcamp in South Florida!!! I visited other competing bootcamps and I can tell you that Wyncode has the best teaching staff and everyone is super friendly. I did their full stack program and after graduation I found a job through their hiring connections right away. The skills that you gain are incredable and you will always feel challenged, no matter what skill level you start with. Wyncode is absolutely the best and they have the biggest network of South Florida!

Great experience - instructors and their real word experience make it invaluable
I wrapped up a 5 week Digital Marketing course at BrainStation at the end of August. I was truly impressed. In 5 weeks (two evenings a week), we touched on every aspect of digital marketing that you would want to know in today's day and age. I took the course as a compliment to a recent career move.

I wrapped up a 5 week Digital Marketing course at BrainStation at the end of August. I was truly impressed. In 5 weeks (two evenings a week), we touched on every aspect of digital marketing that you would want to know in today's day and age. I took the course as a compliment to a recent career move. I felt like I didn't have the information I needed when sitting in meetings listening to metrics or campaign strategies. BrainStation gave me the tools I needed to understand the basics of digital marketing, and then the curiosity to go learn a bit more on my own. I will say that the format of two evenings a week does make for a very busy week - I might recommend the 10 week once a week format. The instructors were top notch and the most valuable part of the course came from their own anecdotes and experiences. Would recommend this to anyone who is looking to navigate digital marketing for their own start up business venture or if you simply want to be more well versed in your current role.

I hope to continue learning with BrainStation. I enjoyed my classes, teachers and class mates. Thank you for this opportunity. I highly recommend this course to anyone who needs a general overview of digital marketing possibilities.

This is a long review but please hear me out...or you'll skip out on the scholarship at the end.
I had the immense opportunity to join Wyncode in the summer of 2016 (cohort X) for the full-stack web immersive program when it was still 9-weeks long. Although the school has grown and changed quite a bit since then, there are still many things I can share about the experience...since, of course, it was so memorable.

This is a long review but please hear me out...or you'll skip out on the scholarship at the end.
I had the immense opportunity to join Wyncode in the summer of 2016 (cohort X) for the full-stack web immersive program when it was still 9-weeks long. Although the school has grown and changed quite a bit since then, there are still many things I can share about the experience...since, of course, it was so memorable.
Don't get me wrong,...it was definitely a challenging experience but a personal one every student had to go through. Despite the crunch of learning so many skills in 9 weeks (now the curriculum is 10 weeks), it certainly filled a lot of gaps in my self-education. The last few weeks were the most difficult as I had to wrap my head around advanced concepts in a short amount of time, like being given one day to just pick up ajax or authentication. Practice is key though. In the last week, in preparation for Pitch Day, there were limited TAs available to help, which at the same time, may have been a good thing because you were forced to be creative with the final app to make things work.
One of the main reasons why I chose Wyncode was for its well structured curriculum and the support not only from the instructor and TAs but also from the other students, surprisingly. I got my first impression when I went to Pitch Day of cohort 9 and felt the enthusiasm and energy of accomplishment from the group. It was as if they all had been on the best ride of their lives. However, it wasn't until I actually started the program that I experienced the same sensations and reaped up all the benefits, some of which I'll share with you now.
First
Ruby is definitely an easy language to learn and although, it may not be as in-demand as other languages, I think it was a good choice that Wyncode made for students who are spanking brand new to coding. Later on, I would use the programming concepts I learned with Ruby when working with python and javascript.
Second
I, personally, loved the one-on-ones, the morning briefs and the group self-reflection meetings held frequently. As introvert as I am sometimes, it gave me an opportunity to self-reflect, help others, confess challenges (whether personal or coding-related) within the group and contribute to the improvement of the learning experience. With the cohort's feedback, Wyncode coordinators made adjustments sometimes and I think that was very wise for a coding bootcamp to do that.
Third
I think it is very important that teaching/mentoring be in a way that guides students to think for themselves on how to come up with solutions to problems. That way, it stimulates creative juices. This is one of the reasons why I enjoyed the one-on-ones so much. Of course, you also have to have the drive and determination of trying to understand what you cannot understand (temporarily), but it helps that the TAs don't go straight into giving out the answers ...neither do they spoon-feed. They question your decisions and force you to take time to let things sink and let the lightbulb turn on naturally.
Fourth
I like the diversity of activities. One day, we were given the opportunity to do some quality testing on an iOS app, ...another day, we had a networking opportunity with a Wyncode partner, ...another day, we had a shindig at the wynwood yard, ...another day, we had a Friends & Family event to present our first app. It was never a boring moment.
Fifth
Wyncode partners are many and there's definitely many opportunities to get employed even before graduating, provided you put in the research and are interested in working for them. However, before and after graduation, you also have free access to Wynwork, a bi-weekly job support session that helps Wyncoders with interviews, resumes, negotiations, etc. I went to a few sessions before I left for a master degree program abroad and I can say first hand that the resources and advice they provide is very valuable. The more you go, the better it is to get in the right mindset and in preparation to present well,...the business of you.
So... all in all, you are what you make of it. If you're ready to take the next step in creating web apps or making them intuitive and interactive with UI/UX design, Wyncode is it.
Before you enroll, just fill out this form and you'll receive a partial scholarship. On top of that...you don't have to pay tuition back until you're employed. Whoop! Whoop!
Feel free to reach out to me on twitter @naestevez if you have any questions. :)

I'm already looking forward to taking another course.

The lead instructor, Sarah, was a great teacher - knowledgeable, experienced, and a clear communicator who often related the course content back to her real life marketing job, which was helpful in better understanding the material. It was also helpful to have a co-instructor (Sameer) in the course - both were supportive and always had helpful advice.
I especially enjoyed working on the final project - a digital marketing strategy for an existing brand - and applying everything we learned, seeing it all come together, and getting immediate feedback from the instructors.
And the Toronto campus is a great learning environment in the heart of the tech hub.

The guest teachers were also really helpful - I really valued learning from people that were experts in their field.

Be prepared to do some additional research on your own, but again that is what the instructors and guest instructors will prepare you for. As someone without a traditional marketing background but that is reasonably savvy about the digital landscape, I did just fine and took away a lot of great information from this course.
