Average Rating 4.86
391 Reviews 3 Courses

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_>.

    An Amazing Experience

    The bootcamp is very intense, you really have to come prepared for 14 weeks of having time for not much more than the activities that involve the bootcamp. 
    Sleeping is essential but there are times where you wont get much of it. 
    In the end...

    #86 Bootcamp Review

    3,5 months that feel like 10, but also feel like 1!
    It's crazy.
    You learn so much in such a short span of time, that one week can feel like a lot of time.
    However, it is so intense and immersive (all you think about while you're in the bootcamp) that time flies.
