A Wonderful Experience
Excellent and very good place to learn both front-end and back-end web development. It has been a wonderful and enriching experience. - AnonymousGraduate • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • LondonJan 04, 2024Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Do Not Waste Your Time or Money!
I went to Le Wagon London last year and have not been able to find work since. So their 93% employment rate is not to be believed imo.
Where do you begin with this place and it’s unqualified teachers and TA’s (these are teaching assistants that are in fact people who just did the last bootcamp and can’t find a real job!) The actual teaching staff that I had did not have teaching qualifications and were very biased to the back end of coding, often dismissing the front end.

Where do you begin with this place and it’s unqualified teachers and TA’s (these are teaching assistants that are in fact people who just did the last bootcamp and can’t find a real job!) The actual teaching staff that I had did not have teaching qualifications and were very biased to the back end of coding, often dismissing the front end.
Your time here will largely be spent in twos doing challenges based on the morning lecture, this will largely be about Ruby on Rails! When you are there you constantly question things and are told it will all become clear in the last week or two, yet in reality this doesn’t happen but by then you’ve almost finished and you’ve spent both time and money, so kicking that can down the proverbial is easier for them!
Come the last two weeks, well one of these is your ‘build a website week’ and whilst this is moderately interesting, it’s not like you couldn’t have don’t this cheaper and faster elsewhere without all the other nonsense and awful learning environment. By awful, I mean if you’re unfortunate to be one of 4 groups on the ground floor, you will enjoy constant disruption from main doors, kitchens, toilets, staff rooms and people coming and going (as there is no reception area to speak of, people are buzzed in with ease and often left to their own devices!) All of this is not conducive of a positive learning experience.
Then comes career week - well this was a waste of time and energy. We actually thought it was a joke it was so bad. Many of us had already had careers and were experienced hires in other fields. The careers woman told us to delete our CV’s and start from scratch, effectively erasing all trace of any work experiences etc. When questioned about this, various staff agreed and it seemed like this was the normal thing to do. Still seemed very strange to me, but I went along with it, as did everyone else, almost like we were in a cult but didn’t know it!
Almost a year later and I am not in a tech job, in fact not in any job. The reason I did this bootcamp was to change careers but in reality the world is not that simple and by doing this bootcamp it is highly unlikely you will land a job in tech in 2024. The world has changed since the days LeWagon could punt ‘startups’ and make it sound sexy. Now the majority of people aren’t interested in startups and the ones that are, are not doing bootcamps!
My advice to anyone looking to change career is speak to people hiring for those jobs and hear what they’re really looking for, because it’s not, in most cases, Ruby on Rails, and your brief time at a bootcamp will simply not be enough. This is not how this is being sold, and that’s my issue with this. No, they don’t guarantee you a job, but they do use words very carefully with statistics they produce to make it seem extremely easy to get a role in tech, when for the last majority, it’s just not the case.
If you want my advice or opinion, save your time and money and do not come here! - AnonymousGraduate • Data Analytics Bootcamp • LondonJan 03, 2024Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
All I expected, A Solid Tech Upgrade
Having a business background and limited tech experience, I was pleasantly surprised by the Le Wagon Data Analytics Bootcamp. The course surpassed my expectations, offering practical skills for data collection, cleaning, analysis, and visualization. It also includes a first approach to adding value, such as machine learning models and automation tools.

The daily structure is intense but a great method, with morning lessons, day-long challenges, and recaps at the end of the day. It makes it easy to learn and digest information at various stages, ensuring everyone gains the necessary skills.
The standout feature is the friendly and well-prepared staff. Their support enhances the learning journey, making it both enjoyable and rewarding.
In summary, I will recommend it. - AnonymousStudent • Data Science & AI Bootcamp - Full-time • MarseilleJan 03, 2024Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Very good experience
Very good experience, in terms of skills acquisition, teaching content and teaching method. I'd recommend it to anyone wanting to improve their skills in data and start a career in this field. The bootcamp experience is very rewarding and helps to create a sense of competition with people from different backgrounds. It's as much an intellectual experience as a social one. I would recommend the Wagon without hesitation. - AnonymousStudent • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • MarseilleDec 29, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

Great experience with amazing support !
A great experience, very practical (lectures every morning and challenges during the day to put into practice what we learned) with excellent support by either our batchmates and our teachers ! Very supportive and friendly staff!
A place where I definitely started to shape and launch my new career in tech!

Challenging and intense
The Wagon experience was intense and challenging, in only 2 months, we made a giant step in the tech universe. A lot of work was done, a lot of work remain, but it was an amazing experience and very useful. The teachers in Nice (south France) are basically awesome, mostly former students, very helpfull.

Intense experience
I didn't really know what to expect but it was beyond any expectations. The program, the teachers et assistants were all very involved to make sure everybody was following up. These nine weeks were intense but smooth at the same time.
Could only recommend this boot camp. - AnonymousGraduate • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • MarseilleDec 27, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
incredible journey, would recommend 100%
Starting le Wagon bootcamp was one of the best decisions I've taken in my professional life. I wanted to learn in a efficient way all the skills needed to become a full stack developper without the pain of going back at school for 3-5 years. As I was switching from one career field to another, I feel that le Wagon was the best bootcamp to help me achieve my goals and start my new life as a fullstack developper. Would recommend to anyone willing to start a career in web development ! - AnonymousGraduate • Data Science & AI Bootcamp - Part-time • MontrealDec 19, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Great growth opportunity
Great opportunity to learn more than what I anticipated, but in a clear progression path. Not only that, but the great contact before, during, and after the bootcamp to ensure consta t support for our career in Data Science or Web Dev is a great element that I first did not expect, but will probably be of great support later on for me. I enjoyed my time at Le Wagon's bootcamp for sure! - AnonymousGraduate • Data Analytics Bootcamp Online • OnlineDec 18, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Interactive and purposeful!
I would have never expected that an online coding bootcamp would be a life changing experience. This experience has enabled me to be flexible with my own routine while learning new things simultaneously. Teachers and TAs have been very helpful throughout the process and after sometime, I forgot that we're doing an online course altogether, great job! Game days have also been instrumental in helping to break the ice with batch mates.
