When I signed up for the training with La Capsule, I clearly left my comfort zone! I had no experience in coding and this was the first step of my professional reconversion. Hence, I had some doubts regarding the possible results of such a short and intense training, but most of all I had doubts on my own capability of learning to code in so little time. The first three weeks were very hard, I almost gave up! When they say boot camp, they are not joking! But Noël, our trainer, proved to be not only a very skilled teacher, but also an excellent coach who knew how to get me back on track when in doubt. Today, after ten weeks of intense hands on training, I have learned a lot and I am very proud of my personal project, built during the last phase of the training. Moreover, the material conditions are perfect: a very spacious and beautiful co-working place, with a comfortable and nice atmosphere with fruits and coffee as much as you want. And, to top it all, yoga class once a week, the perfect way to relax! I am so lucky to have initiated my new career with La Capsule. Next step: internship as assistant developer. Many thanks to Noël and Marlène for their professionalism and their high availability and also to my capsule colleagues of the Lyon promotion, thanks for all the laughs and long life to La Capsule!

Honestly, I just finished the program at La Capsule, and it was an intense experience… but so rewarding! Even though I did the course fully remote, everything went smoothly.

Moving forward together, helping each other out—it’s really motivating and helped me stay on track. The moments when we coded just for the joy of coding, simply putting things into practice, were awesome. Even if we didn’t always finish everything, the goal was to keep progressing and learning every day. Honestly, I’m thrilled with this experience, and for me, La Capsule is a bootcamp that truly delivers on its promises! - AnonymousStudent • Full Stack Web Developer - In Person • MarseilleAug 22, 2024Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Excellent
A great experience at La Capsule, with a comprehensive training program on JavaScript frameworks. The training allows you to become autonomous while providing assistance when needed. The courses are clear and precise, and the exercises demonstrate the practical value of what you learn in a professional context.

The bootcamp is intense but well organized and we learn by doing. The exercises are well thought out, starting with something simple to grasp the basics before increasing in difficulty. If we finish the day early, we can go deeper with optional challenges.
I had a great Teacher, Raida, which made learning enjoyable.
We worked on many different projects, like geolocation and mobile app development, and each project presented us with new challenges.
The hackathons and kata night were also highlights, great for learning to work together.
The end-of-batch project gave me confidence for the next steps in my career change!
For those new to programming, I really recommend taking the Prep Work seriously before starting.
You MUST be prepared for the intense pace of the bootcamp and to make the most of everything the training has to offer.
I highly recommend La Capsule :) - AnonymousGraduateFeb 12, 2024Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Great Bootcamp
My recent experience with La Capsule was extremely positive. I particularly liked the format, which included morning classes with teachers who were available to answer all types of questions, followed by group work in the afternoon. Initially, being remote, I expected to be on my own, but this was not the case at all. Students were able to help each other and benefit from the guidance of teachers and teaching assistants. We were really well supported throughout the course.

I also really liked the virtual campus; it was superbly designed. My project group and I even continued to use the tool after the bootcamp ended.
The Ariane educational platform was very comprehensive. We had access to all the necessary information, whether in text or video form. Everything was very well organized.
I would 100% recommend this training in the future. I've already talked about it to people around me; it was a great experience. I have absolutely no regrets

Coming from a background completely opposite to web development, I wanted to pivot for a change of pace and enter a field in constant evolution. That's when I discovered La Capsule, and what truly captivated me was their pedagogical approach focused on practicality, with a precise emphasis on a programming language. The highly intensive pace was also a very positive aspect for me.

The highly intensive pace was also a very positive aspect for me.
My experience with La Capsule was excellent! The classes were very interesting, and I had the opportunity to collaborate with individuals from diverse backgrounds within my batch. The practice-based pedagogy, with an hour of instruction followed by practical application, is a highly effective system. The teachers were always available to assist us whenever we faced challenges. Their approach was both caring and instructive, with a willingness to explain as many times as necessary.
Ultimately, my experience at La Capsule was very positive; I didn't want it to end! I highly recommend La Capsule to anyone seeking a quality training program in web development. - AnonymousStudent • Full Stack Web Developer - In Person • ParisNov 21, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A

I chose La Capsule for its teaching, the languages covered during the training and a BIG plus for the possibility of following the bootcamp in person. The end project is an interesting concept, it allowed me to implement everything I was able to assimilate throughout the training and to explore further. Autonomous bug resolution, team project management, everything was there. We were well supported, especially by the teacher and the teacher assistant, there is real support behind it. In short, I had fun developing this final project! I will recommend. To anyone wanting to take this bootcamp, go for it! It's very enriching and you learn a lot of things all the time. - AnonymousStudent • Full Stack Web Developer - In Person • ParisNov 13, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Amazing and funny
I chose La Capsule's bootcamp because of its innovative pedagogical approach and short duration. Rather than committing myself to a three-year-plus course, I opted for an intensive program that will save me time and get me up and running quickly.

Great atmosphere! You learn so much in such a short time. The Project-Based Learning was particularly stimulating, and the final project was a real plus for the course. Beyond the technical aspects, this MVP enabled us to perfect our soft skills and adopt a more holistic vision of web development. It's not just about coding, but also about managing projects, with complementary skills such as creativity, design and conceptualization.Raida and Joachim have created a warm, family atmosphere within the batch. Many thanks to them for their guidance and support.
I highly recommend La Capsule for anyone looking for an intensive and stimulating training experience. - AnonymousStudent • Full Stack Web Developer - In Person • MarseilleJul 04, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
A great experience !
A very positive experience. La Capsule programme is very well organised, with 1 hour of theory in the morning and practice the rest of the day. The teaching platform is top-notch, very clear and easy to use. Our teacher was also great, very patient and educational.
In short, I learnt a lot during these 10 weeks of intensive training! I'd definitely recommend it! - AnonymousStudent • Full Stack Web Developer - In Person • LilleApr 03, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
If you're thinking of getting into development, I highly recommend La Capsule !
I started learning to code on the advice of a friend who was convinced that I would like this job. I started as a self-taught person on the side of my job to test my appetite, which quickly proved to be true! However, I felt the need to finalise my work with a supervised training course.

I started as a self-taught person on the side of my job to test my appetite, which quickly proved to be true! However, I felt the need to finalise my work with a supervised training course.
I therefore compared the different training offers and it was La Capsule that had the most quality: a human-sized class (max 15 students), a programme that was coherent with the needs of the market and, above all, an honest and transparent discourse on what you were going to be able to do at the end of the 10-week training.
I have just finished my course in Lille and I can now say that if I had to do it again, I would! The course offers a hands-on experience, which allows you to progress quickly in your coding skills. Regarding the pedagogy, Joel is an exceptional teacher who makes sure that each student understands the concepts before moving on to the next step. He takes the time to rephrase and explain each concept as many times as it takes for everyone to understand it.
I highly recommend The Capsule, but keep in mind that it's an intense course that requires you to have tried coding before and to have learned a few basics. If you're up for the challenge, this course can really help you progress in your development career!
