    My Wyncode Experience in Cohort 4

    The following represents my opinion, and mines alone.

    Wyncode was what may turn out to be the most important learning experience of my life.

    In 9 weeks, and only with the most intense effort from myself, and the support of the staff and admin, I was taught what I would consider a second to none foundation to beginining a career as a web developer. 

    The admin and staff will tell you, you will get out of this course what you put in, and I couldn't agree more.

    Coming Full Circle

    I first learned about Wyncode through a friend when I told him I was ready to really commit to learning programming, and I still haven't thanked him enough for recommending me this amazing place. For my research, I actually read all the CourseReport reviews that were available at the time, and one in particular really caught my attention. My writing this review after completing the cohort is one of the many ways where I've come full circle.

    I just finished the cohort last...

    Interest in programming? Wyncode is probably for you.

    Wyncode was a great experience for learning how to code. I was in the first cohort and was wary of trusting in Wyncode, since they hadn’t proven themselves in the South Florida market. It happened to be a great decision and I happily have a new career as a junior developer.  Their instructors and staff are incredible and truly help you every step of the way. Whether you’ve never seen a line of code or you just want to learn a new language, you can rest assured they will tailor the learning...

    A-maaaaa-zing!

    I entered Wyncode hoping to learn to code, and got so much more than that. I left feeling empowered and able to not only build whatever I wanted, but to take myself seriously as a leader and entrepreneur. Located at the LAB, Wyncode is in the heart of Miami's startup scene and there were always exciting events happening around us. The program is quick to adapt to student feedback, and it is all driven by a fantastic core leadership team. Jo and Juha are personally invested in eac...

    Wyncode - Filling a Niche and Getting People Jobs

    If you are reading this and considering joining Wyncode, I was in your shoes a couple months ago and had some of the same questions. How credible are web development bootcamps? Is paying $10k (cost as of cohort 3) for a 9 week program really worth it? And most importantly, will I be able to land a job once I have completed the program?

    My background is unique, but I was in a position many people find themselves in. I had an engineering degree from a great university, bu...

    Learn to code with no previous experience at all

    I came into Wyncode with no coding experience at all. I had completed some basic codecademy courses on (HTML, CSS, and Ruby) but apart from that, I had never written an actual line of code. Through 9 weeks of Wyncode I was able to develop skills in HTML, CSS, Ruby on Rails, Git, Javascript, Jquery. During Wyncode I was able to build several websites, half a dozen web apps, and our own API that was later released on Mashape. Another critical skill that was taught in Wyncode is using Git and...

    Wyncode Review

    The course offers an extreme way to get into what is a developer's world as a student while you are squashed by the amount of material you have to understand in a limited amount of time. 

      The instructor as well as the teaching assistants help greatly in understanding the concepts but at the end of the day your efforts equal your success like anything else in life. Wyncode’s greatest assets are putting you in direct contact wi...

    My only regret was not starting earlier

    Wyncode is the first licensed brick and mortar institution in the state, and they have already developed deep connections and a strong track record in the South Florida tech scene.  Their curriculum won't teach you everything you need to know in nine weeks -- that isn't realistic for any nine week program.  What it will do is give you the skills you need to land an entry level programming gig at a local tech company, or to build an MVP for your business idea.  You will also leave the progr...

    Great City. Brilliant Instructor. Helpful Staff.

    I learned a lot at Wyncode. It's an amazing experience as well to study with Ed Toro (the head instructor). He challenges the class daily, and his insight/expertise in the field is invaluable. One of the highlights of attending Wyncode is learning from Ed. 

    The staff at Wyncode provides excellent job assistance after graduation. In fact, thanks to Wyncode’s help I was offered a job only a month after graduation. It's clear that Wyncode will do ev...

    I was a student at Wycode and graduated from the third cohort. Everyone in the Wyncode team are not only extremely helpful and knowledgeable, but also amazing people. I learned way more than i expected to and the course definitely prepared me to enter the development field as a junior dev. I had the opportunity of meeting and getting to know not only the wonderful Wyncode Team, but also many great people who were also students learning and working through the course as well. I ma...

    If you want to change your career and be a part of a growing industry, definitely look into Wyncode. That being said, be prepared to truly challenge yourself to persevere and plan to practice coding for hours day in and day out, including weekends, if you want to succeed.

    I was part of Cohort 3 and just completed the program in December 2014. Prior to Wyncode I was working as a Sales Assistant before I was laid off from my job. After hearing about Wyncode, I chose ...

    Coding and Miami are a perfect combo!

    I'll keep it short incase you dont want to read the other long reviews.  I graduated from the University of Miami with a business degree and ZERO coding experience.  After 9 weeks, I was able to build a prototype for an app i've been wanting to build and have landed an awesome job at a startup in Miami.

    Coding will be relvanant, Miami is on the rise, and Wyncode puts you in the position to succeed.
