CodeBoxx
CodeBoxx is a 16-week full-stack bootcamp in Canada and the US. The course offers students a deep understanding of web site development and information systems and covers programming languages such as HTML, Javascript, Python, Go, C#, Ruby, and Ruby on Rails. Students can develop code on either a PC or Mac and will learn developer tools such as GitHub and SQL. CodeBoxx’s mission is to help students realize their full potential in the world of coding and web development. To allow as many as possible to realize that potential, CodeBoxx's goal is to remove the barriers to entry: all applicants are accepted, have access to a laptop loan program, and only pay tuition after successful job placement. Codeboxx also guarantees a job to every graduate through their partner businesses and their own digital workshop.
Those interested in CodeBoxx must complete the registration form on the website. Registrants are automatically accepted and they only have to complete the enrollment process and pay the refundable security deposit to officially become candidates. Once enrolled, candidates will begin the 2-week selection program called Genesis to help determine if CodeBoxx is the right fit and allow each participant to see if the tech industry suits them. Students who are successful will move on to the 14-week Odyssey program, which is a set of 14 sprints covering 14 themes, always under a business simulation environment. Candidates who are unsuccessful in the Genesis section will receive a full refund of their deposit.
CodeBoxx has partnerships with tech companies from around the world to build an active placement program for graduates. Corporate partners include CGI, Coveo, La Capitale Assurance, Keyrus, Lucky Brand, Bond and many others. Once graduates land a job, either through partner or external businesses or their digital workshop, they will receive an invoice equivalent to 20% of their first year gross salary. CodeBoxx’s CEO Nicolas Genest has spent 20 years in the tech industry, including the last few as CTO of companies like The Real Real or Wal-Mart.

Following a career change, I did not have the time to go back 3 years to do college training in technology. The opportunity of the thrilling challenge of a boot camp at CodeBoxx has proved to be the best alternative for me. Training in 4 months has required a serious commitment and dedication, but it has really been worth it and I can now work in the field. Dedicated coaches, up-to-date classrooms and the learning of cutting edge techniques have changed the course of my life.

Awesome bootcamp
Codeboxx is an awesome bootcamp. The focus on business application and the new on demand technologies gives the participant a great preview of the upcoming years as a programmer in a business. The 16 weeks course is long enough to go through a lot of technologies and have a good base for years to come. It is also short enough to change career path relatively easily.

A life changing experience
I was totally unaware of what a bootcamp is.
What an experience that turned out to be!
I've learn plenty and I've been offered a very nice job on top of that!
But please bear in mind that this is not an easy course. You'll have to spend a lot of hours. But in the end, it's really worth it.

Great Career Opportunity!
I was extremely lucky to be able to find Codeboxx and a tech job right before covid happened! Before I switched my careers to programming, I was working as a musician and a piano teacher. Never in my life did I learn how to code until I started Codeboxx. As others had already mentioned, the bootcamp was challenging but I love challenges so I enjoyed every bit of it. I thought that their curriculum was useful even though I am not currently using it at my job.

Before I switched my careers to programming, I was working as a musician and a piano teacher. Never in my life did I learn how to code until I started Codeboxx. As others had already mentioned, the bootcamp was challenging but I love challenges so I enjoyed every bit of it. I thought that their curriculum was useful even though I am not currently using it at my job. I think their main idea was to give us the big picture of all the different types of technology and to expose us to different things so that we become aware of it. They provided us the experience of self-learning while having instructors to guide us in the right path. I thought it was a good alternative to just doing online tutorials because Codeboxx resembled a work place that gave me the hands on opportunity to complete different projects every week. If you're interested in joining the bootcamp, don't feel disappointed if you feel like you haven't mastered everything. It is IMPOSSIBLE to become a master of anything in four months, especially when the world of technology is huuuge. I found that right after I finished the bootcamp, I became aware of I wanted to learn/ focus on so I did some more digging to master those topics in my part.
Finding the first job in tech is hard (especially after the career switch -- with no experience/ portfolio), so Codeboxx definitely fulfilled its promises in providing us a job and a real-life experience that we could use in our resume. This was one of the great benefits in Codeboxx and I'm very appreciative of that! - Franck TchitemboFull-Stack Developper • Graduate • Accelerated Technology Program • Quebec CityNov 09, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Carrer change
As a former researcher in Materials Engineering, I had to decide for a carrer change. CodeBoxx was the best place for me to meet my expectation both in quick learning and for job opportunities after graduating. 16 weeks of bootcamp were not only though, but also stimulating and I have learned many IT subjects. I do recommend whoever who would like to embrace a carrer in IT.
