Founded in Portugal in 2015, Code for All_ is a social impact startup that offers 14-week intensive and immersive Full Stack Programming Bootcamps. Students are guided through the course by a team of instructors who are graduates of the bootcamp. Code for All_ describes their teaching methods as "peculiar" and aimed at training students to write clean code.
Code for All_'s immersive programming bootcamps welcome beginners of all ages (over 18) and backgrounds (degree not needed) as long as they are willing to fully and passionately commit to becoming professional junior software developers within a short period of time. To apply to the bootcamps, prospective students must complete an online computer science 101 course, submit an online form, complete an online JavaScript tutorial, excel in a JavaScript code challenge, and attend online a workshop day that will be similar to the student experience during the bootcamp.
At each campus, different financing/sponsorship solutions are available to help candidates finance the bootcamp. Terms and conditions are listed on the Code for All_ website.
Code for All_ was formerly known as <Academia de Código_>.

It's not just empty promises, my life had nothing to do with programming, 0 background or knowledge about coding and now, 1 week after the end of bootcamp I already have a job in an IT company earning double the amount I was earning before the bootcamp. Not only coding skills made this bootcamp but also a family you end up winning. 100% afraid of it early January but incredibly sad for this experience to end now, but at the same time really excited about this next step!

Although i was a bit reluctant at the spirit and the enviroment because i'm a reserve person that was one of the things that i loved the most. It's a extremly intense course and i think it works so well because you can't ever relax. every week they can't present you another chalenge , another situation where you every where but your confort zone and that for me i thought it would be a problem but turns out it was a way for me to know a bit more of my self.
To sum up the whole experience, thanks to Academia de Código and my hard work i can say i live my dream of being a developer every day of my life :)Overall5.0Curriculum5.0Job support5.0Instructors5.0 -
