Changed my life!
When I joined Le Wagon I was in doubt about some other courses not related to coding. But as soon as I started the prep work that they give I was amazed! The 2 months I spent there showed me that I could be a developer without studying for 4 years. Now, after 2 years I have an amazing job abroad (Im from Brazil) and my life has changed! I love what I do and the opportunities are many more than what I used to have when in my previous area. - Denzel BraithwaiteGraduate • Web Development Bootcamp - Part-time • MontrealJul 15, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Le Wagon was a unique and unforgettable experience
I'm Denzel Braithwaite and I was part of the Montreal part time batch #790. When I graduated high school, I spent 6 years as a janitor. I started to wonder if this is what I'd be doing for the rest of my life. I decided to take a computing support course which helped me land a job in I.T. but I felt as if it was only a nudge in the right direction, but I could still go even further. I knew I still wanted to work with computers, this is my passion, but I wanted a career that was in demand...I'm Denzel Braithwaite and I was part of the Montreal part time batch #790.

I knew I still wanted to work with computers, this is my passion, but I wanted a career that was in demand, flexible and rewarding with the possibility of working remotely. I had already heard about Le Wagon from a few friends and decided to take a chance. As an alumni, I can definitely say that this course was worth every minute and every penny. It's about so much more than simply learning how to code, it's about learning how to change your life and adapt to a constantly evolving industry. It's about collaborating on meaningful and impactful projects and building lifelong connections in a very active community. I learnt how to learn and how to ask for help when I needed it. Le Wagon teaches the skills and discipline required for success, while keeping an important focus on relaxing and getting to know your fellow colleagues. I can try to describe it in many different ways, but the best way is to experience it yourself. Dive in and trust the process, know that you're in good hands from the moment you start until long after you've graduated. Le Wagon is a family, and we're all eager to meet you. - Pierre-Louis BerlemontGraduate • Coding Bootcamp Madrid • MadridJul 14, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

For this reason, I joined Le Wagon and throughout those 10 weeks, I had had the most fast-paced, exciting and memorable learning experience that I could have hoped for. The bootcamp is definitely super intense and immersive and you have to be fully committed. There’s a lecture in the morning, and then you work on challenge all day with an assigned buddy. It makes it really straight-forward, and you start coding on the very first day. The staff is great and extremely supportive. Moreover, once you are in Le Wagon, you have access to all of the resources you used and to all the Le Wagon community which involves their alumni network, job offers and many others. For all those reasons, I truly recommend Le Wagon to anyone wanting to develop new skills, change careers and to be part of a network of excellence. - Eduardo RoldanGraduate • Web Development Bootcamp - Part-time • BerlinJul 13, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

This was for sure a great decision that I took.
After trying many times by myself to self learn coding, I was always struggling to find the rhythm to do it properly. Le wagon made for me a great experience overall, the people I met, the content, the education system and a lot of different resources make a unique experience.

Before Le Wagon I was doing digital marketing and creating WordPress Websites, but I was always curious to understand better how all worked underground and that was the main reason I decided to enroll here, because I was not succeeding to study this amount of information without a proper guidance.
I took the decision to do the part-time format because I'm still working as well as a full time employee and I needed to keep doing other projects with me. This was a hard decision to take since was needed many hours to keep the experience all right, but I have to say the teachers were caring a lot of our development and our motivation, capable to make us feel very comfortable during the course.
I just finished the course and I'm happy to have some already projects running on the web, but I know as well I need to keep my knowledge growing, but very happy for the experience and the time that was given to us.

My experience at Le Wagon London
Before Le Wagon, I worked as a civil engineer for 3+ years at a leading consultant firm in London. However, I always felt there was something out there for me to leverage both my creative and technical skills. I wanted to see quicker results of my work, as civil engineering projects often takes months, if not years between the design and construction stage.

I wanted to see quicker results of my work, as civil engineering projects often takes months, if not years between the design and construction stage. Also, the fact that many of my friends work in technology field and were encouraging me to join that world finally forced me to pull the trigger on a massive career change.
Why Le Wagon you might ask? One of my friends attended the bootcamp in January 2020 and really enjoyed it. He had zero previous coding knowledge nor any technical experience, but he found it very interesting and exciting. I also researched online and found out that Le Wagon has the most highest rated reviews in London, so it was a no brainer!
I joined Le Wagon full-time web development bootcamp in London in April 2022. During the course, we developed many different skills, from backend (Ruby, Ruby on Rails) to frontend (CSS, HTML, Bootstrap) and met wonderful people by working in a buddy system . All Le Wagon staff, teachers and TAs were always responsive and super helpful and the greatest part was that all of them were also Le Wagon graduates and had gone through the exact same process as us.
Joining Le Wagon was probably the best experience in my life! I highly recommend it and I think they are the best coding bootcamp in London. - Rob FordTechnical Delivery Manager • Graduate • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • LondonJul 07, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Perfect for transitioning into a tech career

I wanted to get into working with tech products, and to learn necessary skills with a group of like-minded people. My overall experience with LeWagon was excellent.

I wanted to get into working with tech products, and to learn necessary skills with a group of like-minded people. My overall experience with LeWagon was excellent. My cohort was 30 people and we all supported and encouraged eachother throughout. The learning pace is fast and pushes you to be on your game every day, and plenty of staff are always on hand to go over things and guide you. Very quickly we were building our own web apps and I now have a much fully appreciation of tech products.
I'm currently interviewing for product roles and have had feedback from employers that they actively look out for LeWagon graduates as they know they are high quality.
It's worth noting that the support from LeWagon is ongoing after you graduate.. I currently make use of their 'free co-working for life' in the London campus and plan to use them when I travel abroad too. The wider network of alumni (15,000 people and counting) has also proven invaluable for industry contacts and warm introductions for job opportunities.
I'd highly recommend to anybody looking to move into tech. - ChloeWeb Development Bootcamp - Full-time • BerlinJul 06, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Amazing experience with Le Wagon Web Dev bootcamp

This was a great decision! I loved the format with classes in the morning and exercises in the afternoon. Teachers and TAs were engaging and always here to help. The courses were extremely well structured to bring students from zero to the complete ability to build web applications from scratch in just 9 weeks. The most exciting part of the bootcamp are the last 3 weeks where students get to work in teams on a project before presenting it at the demo day! There is also an impressive network with over 15k former students and a lot of events and tools to connect newly graduated students with alumni in order to quickly find a job after the bootcamp.
