Le Wagon

During three months of boot camp, I had the best experience for learning. 
TAs and classmates are also good. Although the class is challenging, we are learning from 9 am to 6 pm, but it is worth it. 
For the last two weeks, we all have our project based on what we learned from the boot camp. We had excellent teamwork and support from Le Wagon too. Our final project presentation is also available on Youtube.
Suppose you want to change your career and learn data. I recommend Le Wagon.

I was initially looking for a Bootcamp for UX design. I am an Architect looking for a career change. I tried self-learning UX online and realized I needed to invest to get proper guidance. My priority was to become part of a strong community. None of UX Bootcamps convinced me so I started to look for Full-Stack Web Developer Bootcamps. I knew this was a good background knowledge to have as UX designer.  So why not invest in Full-Stack Development and find my way into UX Design from there?

When I read Le Wagon I was quickly drawn to their method and way of thinking. 1) Focused on learning the basics fast with an intuitive language such as Ruby. I knew Ruby wasn't as popular as Javascript, for example, but I also knew that it was a beautiful and fun language to start from.  2) The possibility to study full-time on-site. 3) I noticed that their framework was also focused for Startups and this aligned with my personality. I am entrepreneurial and this made me curious.

Le Wagon didn't disappoint me at all and actually exceeded my expectations. The teachers are great, the environment feels great and I also had the feeling during the last week, Career Week, that the community is very strong. Because I enjoyed the Bootcamp so much, I am currently looking for a job as a Full-Stack Developer with a background in UX and not vise-versa. :) I am confident Le Wagon will support me in the following months during my job search.

I absolutely loved my experience at Le Wagon! I felt very supported by all teachers and other students. Le wagon gave me enough confidence and knowledge to start my career in web development. I do not have a job yet, but I am on my way. Would definitely do it again :) Read less

Before the Bootcamp, I was working in a company in the Purchasing department until I discovered coding as my new interest, which made me change my professional path. I found Le Wagon, I visited one Demo Day and after it was clear, I wanted to do this Bootcamp (one of my best life decisions). I really enjoyed the 9 weeks, I like the way the Bootcamp is structured, the learning and the different teachers we had. On top, there is a work week at the end, which is helpful to know where to begin after the Bootcamp. Read less

J'ai suivi une formation au wagon et j'ai été agréablement surprise par la qualité de l'enseignement. Les enseignants étaient compétents et à l'écoute, et la formation était bien structurée et couvrait tous les aspects essentiels du développement web. J'ai appris énormément de choses et je suis maintenant en mesure de créer des sites web de manière autonome. Je recommande vivement cette formation à tous ceux qui souhaitent se lancer dans le développement web. Read less

The learning atmosphere at Le Wagon Berlin is extremely motivating and the structure of the course and resources is extremely well thought through. I really loved going there every day and learnt so much in such a short time! I would highly recommend this bootcamp because in the last three weeks you also learn how to design, implement and deploy web apps as a team and how to work with your peers together on GitHub - which is so important to prepare you for your job as a developer.   Read less

Meilleur bootcamp pour apprendre à développer une application web en un temps record de 9 semaines. Les profs sont tous au top et ce fut une inoubliable expérience. Je recommande pour toute les personnes qui veulent vivre quelque chose d'unique tout en étant bien accompagné jour après jour pour devenir développeur ! 10/10 Read less

Great bootcamp. It was an intense experience that helped me transition from a law career to a tech career in less than 2 months and I also met a lot of great people while being a student there. It really teaches you the basis needed to become a good software developer.  Read less

I was a student of Le Wagon Berlin’s fulltime web development bootcamp and would definitely recommend it to anyone who would like to become a full stack developer. I learned a lot in a relatively short period of time and enjoyed it very much. As an experienced educator, I know how significantly the learning environment can affect the learning experience and outcomes. Le Wagon does a great job in providing an environment that facilitates concentration, dedication, and feeling of belonging. 

As a student, it was important for me to work with people who actually like doing their jobs. When the student perceives that the teaching team does not only care about the student, but takes joy in the activity itself, it is easier for them to engage in the activity. And it is not only the teaching team, but the entire Le Wagon staff work hard to not leave anyone behind in the process. They continuously track student progress and offer help in wide ranging ways to make those 10 weeks of the student go as smooth and productive as possible. I believe this demonstrates a healthy community spirit that is also reflected to the extracurricular activities they all do together.

Le Wagon, probably like other bootcamps in programming, is also appealing considering the student profile it draws. The profile is astonishingly diverse, while most of these people are bright in quite different ways, partially on account of their past education and experiences. Le Wagon does a good job leveraging this diversity to create a community that anyone would find personally enriching. Read less

I completed the full-time web development bootcamp at Le Wagon and have nothing but good things to say about it! I went in knowing very little about coding (I have a background in healthcare) and came out of it feeling as though I had the tools and knowledge to get a junior developer role. The curriculum was fast-paced but there was always support available with the TAs and teachers. The most valuable thing that I learned was how to learn (and apply the knowledge). The campus was open and welcoming and I really enjoyed learning in-person as it felt much more immersive than virtual learning. The students and staff were a definite cherry on top and I made friends for life :) Read less

Ce sont 9 semaines intenses et inoubliables que j’ai passées au Wagon cette année ! J’ai énormément appris, tant des enseignants que des étudiants qui ont apporté une effervescence particulière à mon Batch 🙂!
Je recherchais une formation en présentiel, n’ayant pas d’experience au départ dans l’IT et la Data. Mon choix s’est porté vers Le Wagon pour la qualité de l’accompagnement, la possibilité de passer une certification, et le super réseau qu’il permet d’intégrer. Je conseille vivement de sauter le pas pour vivre une aventure humaine et d’apprentissage riche. L’équipe encadrante est géniale, les supports pédagogiques sont bien construits et restent accessibles avec des MAJ régulières. Les activités annexes sont un vrai plus si vous pouvez y participer (sport, entretien avec des entreprises du secteur, "career week" pour mieux intégrer le monde pro,..). Je suis encore impressionnée de ce que j’ai appris en 9 semaines, et j’espère que cela dure. 

Ma Reco si vous vous lancez : prévoyez du temps pour le 'PrepWork', faites bien vos 'Flashcards' et pour le reste, 'Trust the process' ! Read less

While I was studying my fourth year of the Computer Science and Business Administration Bachelor, I decided that I needed a more practical approach to the technologies that are used in the Data Science industry. I started searching for different Coding Bootcamps, and Le wagon was the one that stood out more for me. First of all, it was the only one that was offering the Data Science intense course in English, and secondly, it was rated the best one in Europe.
 So I decided to join and it was hands-down one of the best decisions I have ever made, the mix between practical knowledge and implementation made the bootcamp super fun and an enriching experience. All of this mixed with the buddy system and a great, friendly atmosphere created the perfect fast-paced learning environment.
 The last two weeks of building our own project were super fun but one of the most intense of my life, thank you to everyone who I shared this experience with!
 The best is yet to come! Read less

The Le Wagon Bootcamp was a life-changing experience for me. I tried development before, online and free but it is always hard to find the right path to follow. Le Wagon brings a very structured course where you are going to learn enough to get you going in your career. I'm happy I did and I would recommend it to any of my friends and family. Read less

Amazing material and an even better team. You can feel the polishing effect and professionalism of a bootcamp with over 1000 batches of experience. Me and my colleagues were taught the whole range of tools necessary for understanding and applying Machine Learning models to real-world situations, starting with an intense 2 weeks introduction to the Python and Mathematics tools for the job.

I've known Le Wagon for 5 years before enrolling in my first course (data). 
My friends that participated in the web development always told me how amazing their methodology and the whole community was. And although it arouse some curiosity in me, I had no idea how life changing it could be.

I'm super interested in how programming and analytics can offer us possibilities to exercise our creativity and handle uncertainties in order to make more sense of the world we live in.

My domain of work is consumer behavior, and in the last years, as I was getting more acquainted to this theme 'data science', I felt that diving deeper into this field would allow me to extract much more value from my work.

So I started to study on my own, I led some data science projects in my former company, but since I didn't properly have a tech background (and neither people I would work directly with), I would always feel that there was something missing. As if I was working on separate pieces, but not really connecting all of the dots. 

That's when Le Wagon comes into play.

I wanted to level up my game, to put some structure on things, to feel that I had a kind of blueprint to address business problems, and - perhaps the most important - to feel that I was part of a supportive community (I mean, we are talking about a super dynamic field in which the only constant is the change, so having this active community helps a lot to keep up to date).

Right before making the decision to leave my job and enroll in the full-time bootcamp, I felt a little insecure. I guess my past experiences led me to be somehow skeptical about the potential of learning institutions. 

But I can affirm today that making this decision was a watershed moment, and that Le Wagon exceeded all of the expectations I could have. 

The methodology is indeed fantastic, the local community incredibly friendly and supportive, so although you spend months of suffering, you are also having lots of fun. Not to mention the broader community, which is super active and engaged.

I feel that I've accomplished all of my goals and a lot of bonuses came together.

So if you're interested in programming, data science, technology in general, and you're considering to participate in a bootcamp, don't take as long as I did. I can assure you won't regret. Read less

 I attended Data Science Bootcamp and the experience was excellent : good learning platform, adapted program and a really good atmosphere.
 I reccomand it !                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    Read less

It was always a pleasant learning atmosphere. I have learned a lot in a very short time. The team at Le Wagon is great. The batch manager did a great job of accommodating all the students. The bootcamp is intense. A high level of comprehension and concentration are an advantage. Read less
