One of the best institutions that gave me experience to real world problems, they also have the most experienced Mentors. They are also well organized as they allow you to book a call with the mentor of your choice whenever you get stuck- Ogodiseng SehooleGraduate • Certified Full Stack Web & Software Engineer Bootcamp (Full Time) • JohannesburgVerified by LinkedInFeb 13, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Exciting but demanding
HyperionDev is a very competent school where one can complete a boot camp in various areas of programming. The software engineering and full-stack web development, that I did, is very demanding and requires you to often do more research online in addition to the study metarial provided. I found that as a beginner 65-70 hours study time is required from you. The mentors are helpful but also don't make things too easy for you as most of the work is required to be done by you.

I would recommend that the booking times for mentors have more available slots sooner than what is currently available. The study metarial is highly informative yet concise. It truly gives you the information you need to be a competent programmer.Melanie of HyperionDev

Very fruitful. A great learning experience.
Bootcamp was very helpful. Learnt a lot. Great learning experience, the additional readings were very helpful. The support team has a very prompt response. The reviews from lectures are very descriptive and help you in refining your work. The discord channel is also helpful when you are stuck. - Allan GaigherGraduate • Data Science Bootcamp • OnlineVerified by GitHubDec 09, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Poorly designed and bad support. Data Science.
Hyperyon was a waste of money.
The course is very poorly designed. Is it basically a pack with 90 pdfs full of typos.
The learning journey is incomplete and missing some basic and important topics you will need on any job application.
The differential is the claimed human reviews and support, which are made by students with no experience, and there was usually a 10-day waiting list to get a 30 min call with a mentor. Mentors are students that didn't necessarily finish the cou...Hyperyon was a waste of money.

The learning journey is incomplete and missing some basic and important topics you will need on any job application.
The differential is the claimed human reviews and support, which are made by students with no experience, and there was usually a 10-day waiting list to get a 30 min call with a mentor. Mentors are students that didn't necessarily finish the course yet, and have no expertise to be able to solve your problems.
I had to sign up for Datacamp and Codecademy to learn the basics and be able to finish some tasks at the Bootcamp, as the explanation for their lessons and exercises don't match the content of the tests.
Had to send complaints weekly to the support team, because the platform was constantly not working, mistakes are normal and communication is terrible. Most of my emails were never replied and nothing ever got done to fix it.
I truly think anyone would be wasting their money doing this bootcamp. I did.

Awesome, in-depth and like any programming course youv got to figure it out!
Hyperions courses are amazing, there is definitely help from a vareity of mentors which is awesome, and the course moves from basics to advanced in a staggered way that slowly builds up your confidence, however there is no such thing as spoon feeding if you want to learn programming! Youv got ot figure it out!

Bootcamp review
Pros : a lot of support is given and all the work is project based, so you get to learn how to code and no more tutorial hell!
cons : projects are slightly difficult so the course may not be for absolute beginers and learners are more responsible for the learning so it might not be a good fit for everybody. However if learning autonomy is for you then give the bootcamp a go!! - Sulaiman GafoorStudent • Software Engineer Bootcamp • OnlineVerified by LinkedInOct 19, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Friendly and Challenging
Overall this course was one of the best courses I've ever been a part of. The amount of attention given to keeping the tasks legitimately thought provoking and challenging was something I had not seen before with many of the other courses I have completed. The staff are always trying to assist and I never felt like I couldn't get any help with the work if I felt stuck. - Sizwe MnothozaSoftware developer • Student • Full Stack Web Developer Bootcamp • OnlineVerified by GitHubOct 19, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Best learning experience
My experience with Hyperion Dev is excellent. The curriculum is well structured and the course content is up to date. The best part of the bootcamp is the code reviewers / mentors with insightful feedbacck - Tshepo ShaiStudent • Software Engineer Bootcamp • OnlineVerified by GitHubOct 18, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Experimental
I have honestly learnt a lot from Hyperion Development as they provide real world task experiment.
The tasks may be challenging but not once have I felt like a beginner because every time I get stuck I could easily contact my mentor for help via discord or book a 1:1 session with the Code Reviewer all I can say I had a wonderful experiment at Hyperion Development as an Online Part-Time Student. - Isaac MakhumisaneStudent • Software Engineer Bootcamp • OnlineVerified by LinkedInOct 10, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
