La Capsule

I have just finished my FullStack developer training from the capsule in Lyon in distance learning. I am happy with my training because it taught me to have a strong foundation in a short amount of time. It is true that it is an intense training and that is exactly what I was looking for, so it suited me well. I think that this format is not suitable for everyone, you have to be very motivated, hardworking, self-sufficient and have a strong mentality in order to not give up during the more difficult times. Otherwise, the subjects covered really allow you to have a strong foundation. I really liked how it was structured, with a lot of practice, quizzes, projects, algorithm exercises, etc. The fact of facing challenges allows you to learn faster. We are pushed to search for solutions ourselves and to work with others, which is similar to how it is done in a company, so it is good preparation. I would have liked the project manager part to be explored more. Being in distance learning in a hybrid format (part distance learning and part in-person) I found that the format was not adapted for distance learning in these circumstances. I had the feeling of being more isolated. We were not allowed to participate in the katas night which I really wanted to do and which we could have done in distance learning with screen sharing since that was our usual method of working between distance learners, we did not understand this decision. We did not have the buddy system which disappointed me a lot since that was a promise of the training. I did not understand the reason because in a company we are expected to work with people remotely so it would have been good preparation and it would have helped us integrate better with the rest of the group that was in person. Fortunately, we were a good group in distance learning and we organized ourselves to help each other and work together thanks to video and screen sharing. We also had a failure during the ice breaker and were not connected to the in-person group, so the bridges between in-person and distance learning were only really made during the demo day at the end of the training and I found it a shame, it would have only been positive for everyone to have a real mixed group. I had the feeling of missing out on some promises that were made to me before starting. However, there is now a 100% remote course so I imagine that the noted difficulties have been identified and that the necessary measures have been put in place. In these conditions, since there will apparently no longer be a hybrid format, I think that it will no longer be a problem and I can only tell you to go for it if you want to do this training! Honestly, I think it was the best decision I have ever made. However, do not expect everything to be handed to you on a silver platter, you will have to work hard! Nobody forces you to do this training, it is your own decision so you have to want it more than anything else. You will have to be self-sufficient because you will not have someone to hold your hand throughout the entire process. But it is worth it, it is an incredible experience that will change your life. Do not hesitate!

Before La Capsule, I was working in production operations in IT. Companies are asking for more and more DevOps skills and my lack of training was starting to be a handicap in my job. So I decided to train at La Capsule, which offered an intense, short and efficient format and promised me to have a solid foundation in DevOps at the end of my training.I can say that the promise is kept! I came in completely new and now have the DevOps skills I was looking for. To be able to do a La Capsule bootcamp, you have to be prepared for such an intense and fast-paced training. You have to be prepared for it and be aware of the personal investment and motivation it requires. If this is the case, La Capsule will be a great experience! In my case, the objective is reached! Special mention to Antoine who is a very good teacher, efficient and very competent in his field!

I recently completed the DevOps Engineer bootcamp at La Capsule and I have nothing but positive things to say about this training!I am a marketing analyst and I wanted to change my career path to a more technical one. After doing some research and hearing several recommendations, I decided to approach La Capsule to follow a training course. Noel, one of the two co-founders of La Capsule, was able to listen to me and give me advice to choose my career path and when he introduced me to the DevOps program, I was immediately hooked!After 2 months of bootcamp, I can thank the team of La Capsule for several things.First, I can thank Antoine, the Teacher, for his pedagogy and the transmission of his knowledge with passion!Secondly, the programme is extremely well structured and really focused on the needs of the market. It is a unique bootcamp. The strength of the curriculum is that it is personalised and customisable. What I mean by this is that the content of the training adapts to the background of each person and that the variety of technologies allows us to apply to many offers.Finally, the first qualities of La Capsule are honesty and transparency, and this before, during and after the training.In conclusion, if I had to do it again, I would totally do it again!
