What really convinced me in choosing the bootcamp was the product oriented mindset that le Wagon provides to its alumni and the outstanding network le Wagon’s staff created. Attending le Wagon was a very enriching experience, I felt I was part of the rich community from day one, and it was surprising to see how fast I was learning new industry-ready concepts everyday. It was a great human experience as well, I was able to meet people from various backgrounds, which opened doors to opportunities I did not even know existed.- SamiFinance Consultant • Graduate • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • ParisMar 16, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

I worked during more than 2 years in a large cap company as a Finance Consulting Analyst and I started to learn some codes without knowing anything. To be honest at this time I was completely lost. I noticed Le Wagon trainings since 2014 but I started to dig into their lessons at the start of 2020. I participated in many of their free courses and obviously the value proposed was the best in the market. I advise you to start your discovery or benchmark like this.
Concerning the bootcamp I appreciated the high level of the courses and the way it gives you the keys to use Ruby on Rails on your own. The most interesting part is that all courses have a professional use case, you will see how to manage a database or how to deploy a website in production for example. Of course you won't be an expert but at the end you can work as a Junior developer which is my personal goal as many of my comrades.
To conclude, I am 100% sure that you will be satisfied by two things with this bootcamp:- The kindness and pedagogy of Le Wagon's staff (professors are completely involved in their roles to teach you the best practices)
- The high quality of the courses is impressive, it was my main point of satisfaction in this training (I believe that a bootcamp should teach you how to be efficient as Web Developer, and that's what I have received at the end)
PS: the materials are lifetime available and those resources are literally a treasure ! - RoazinhoGraduate • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • Rio de JaneiroMar 12, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Le Wagon Rio de Janeiro - 5 stars!
I graduated from Le Wagon Rio de Janeiro in December 2020.
My experience at Le Wagon was pretty much exactly how I had been expecting it to be when I signed up because I read all these great reviews of the course and I believed them. Well I've done the bootcamp and I still believe them. It's exactly how people say it - intense, fun, challenging and rewarding.

Well I've done the bootcamp and I still believe them. It's exactly how people say it - intense, fun, challenging and rewarding.
I've never learnt so much in such a short time (although nor have I worked so consistently hard for 9 weeks). There may be other bootcamps more suitable for people wanting to learn a different set of languages like JS stacks or less focused on web development - but I highly doubt you'll be able to learn as much as you do at Le Wagon in the same time period.
The choice to do the bootcamp in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil was the best decision I made. The campus in the heart of the city near loads of cool tourist attractions. Rio is hands down one of the most beautiful cities in the world and you'll realize that the moment you fly into the airport. The course is the exact same content in any campus around the world so why not experience a different culture?
The best thing about the course is the teachers and the teaching assistants - in Rio they were all Brazilians with perfect English and wealth of knowledge that they try really hard to pass onto you. You'll miss them when they're gone so use them whilst you have them!

The program is fully structured, you have access to lots of resources(Not only the lecture) even after graduation. The access to all the alumni is a big plus for me. The community is always there and it helps me a lot during my job hunting because I can just reach out to the alumni if I have any questions.You have to join this family if you are looking for a bootcamp in Tokyo!!!
After I graduated, I was asked to be the teaching assistant for our next batch. Unfortunately, Tokyo is under an emergency stage due to Covid-19, which meant we had to hold the program on Zoom.I thought this might be hard for the students but Le Wagon’s remote system is very organized and thoughtful. Students can raise the ticket easily and jump into the teacher’s ticket room without the time laps. And the system is designed to keep the connection between everyone including students and teachers. You will not feel alone or isolated at all during the entire program. I will definitely suggest Le Wagon to anyone especially to those who are concerned about the remote situation. - CynthiaGraduate • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • Rio de JaneiroFeb 27, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Very good!
Le Wagon is a great school. Full-time is very difficult, but we can learn many things. We get an overview of how the programming world works. With pair programming, live codes, projects and team programming. Fast learning, huge network, professional teachers and assitants. Lots of available material after the bootcamp.Bootcamp is not for completely beginners. If you don't learn fast, you won't be able to follow the lessons. - Fred CoqueSystem Administrator • Graduate • Web Development Bootcamp - Part-time • Rio de JaneiroFeb 25, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Le Wagon Web Development Bootcamp
This is a great Bootcamp to learn Web Development fundamentals.
They teach you a lot of stuff, so it's pretty intensive and there are some hard things to internalize.
It's totally worth it, especially if you're aiming at starting in the profession.
Any previous knowledge about IT stuff will help you a lot. - Alice RattonEntrepreneur - Engineer - Full stack dev • Graduate • Web Development Bootcamp - Part-time • Rio de JaneiroFeb 25, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

Amazing bootcamp!
I joined the Wagon in summer 2020 after graduating from business school to upgrade my technical skills and learn about web development. I think it was one of the best experience of my life but also one of the most challenging: 9 weeks to become a web developer is quite a challenge! What I liked the most about the Wagon was the highly structured and efficient pedagogy: learning new concepts every day until I could develop Airbnb and my own project. - ElsaWeb Development Bootcamp - Full-time • ParisFeb 23, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Best decision!
Before Le Wagon, I was preparing the agregation in philosophy, but during the year, I realized that teaching in national education did not suit me. I needed a change, something more dynamic! I’ve always wanted to learn to code, so I decided to take the plunge!
As it didn’t require any prior skills and I had heard a lot of good things about it, the training offered by Le Wagon seemed to be the best according to my profile.

We learned a lot of things very quickly and we are a little better every day than the day before. The buddy system allows students of different levels to help each other, so you never feel alone when you struggle!

I never felt alienated, so Le Wagon was a very positive experience for me and I am happy with how it met my expectations. I really miss coding at the Bootcamp from 9 am to 6pm.

I never felt alienated, so Le Wagon was a very positive experience for me and I am happy with how it met my expectations. I really miss coding at the Bootcamp from 9 am to 6pm. The thing I miss the most is the discipline we had, and the teachers were very helpful to sustain that discipline. The campus atmosphere was very nice, we used to gather every Friday to relax and have a small party with the teachers and the staff.
How Le Wagon teaches you new things is very enjoyable, the lessons were intensive, and when I had a hard time understanding a problem or a task, no questions remained unanswered. Besides that, Le Wagon is a very responsible organization. For example, I live in Frankfurt and I wanted to join Le Wagon Germany’s “Career Week”. When I told the staff in Istanbul about this they arranged it very quickly. That’s just one example of how the people at Le Wagon take responsibility and love to help. Le Wagon’s Global alumni network is really useful too. I was looking at job offers on Linkedin, and I saw that some of the graduates were working for those companies. I have sent them connection request and we have started talking and through them I was able to get useful information, advice and further insights.
Before joining Bootcamp, I tried learning software myself, but it didn't work the way I wanted it to. Thanks to Le Wagon, I learned how to code. I noticed that I could work more comfortably within a team. We were very busy during the “Projects Weeks”, when we built an awesome application from scratch. This was great fun! We learned how teamwork works! When you get a job, you will not take a solo role, you will be working with a team and Le Wagon’s buddy system has prepared us for a real work environment.
I found that everything we learned in the curriculum is also necessary and relevant for our future jobs in tech. When I was looking at a job application, I realized that I had many of the skills required. That is why I found the curriculum useful. Also, during “Career Week” – when Le Wagon Istanbul prepared us for our future jobs - we had some very interesting speakers attend. It was very nice to learn about how job interviews are being done and to learn from other professional experiences.
