So happy I did!
I chose to attend NuCamp because it was more affordable than the other boot camps. The online classroom structure is great because it allowed me to efficiently complete the lessons and assignments that I needed to while allowing enough flexibility to work with my schedule. Plus, my instructor was available all week long should I have any questions. He provided multiple methods to reach him for any reason and he was always quick to respond.

HTML, CSS, Javascript class at Nucamp
Although I had taught myself HTML and CSS and was using it at my job, I wanted to be sure that I understood all of the intricacies of programming in HTML, CSS and JavaScript since they are the building blocks of the internet. This was the right decision. I learned so much and now have the confidence to learn other frameworks. - AdamStudentVerified by LinkedInJul 03, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Fullstack
I joined Nucamp due to the low daily time commitment and also recomendations through past graduates. The experience has been great so far and I cant wait to take more classes. - Jon M HonhartSenior Systems Engineer • Student • SeattleVerified by GitHubJun 25, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

Loved the content and instructors for each of the three courses. Highly recommend! What you put in directly collates to what you get out. I struggled with content and workshops but took the time I needed to learn and move forward. Both class and instructors have helped me get a better base of understanding. This has helped me to open a side of tech the has eluded me for many years. - Gabriel B.Verified by GitHubJun 22, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A

My wife sent me a careerkarma article about boot camps and Nucamp was listed. I checked them out. The price and length of the course was perfect. I gave it a try and I am happy with my decision. I took the html, css, and javascript 4-week bootcamp. My instructor was awesome and helped us with whatever questions we had. He took the time to breakdown the complex concepts or syntax into understandable nuggets. If you are new to programming then you should invest in your future and upgrade your skills. The best part is after the 4 week boot camp I may not know how to code in Javascript at any competant level. But I know exactly what direction I need to go in to get the skills I need to get to where I want to go. This Nucamp bootcamp helped renew my desire to stay on my journey and continue to learn programming. Also my instructor definately pointed me in the right direction and a map of what could be ahead. Going to finish this so I can get back to JavaScript. - Steven ChafinGraduate • Hybrid (Online & In-person)Verified by LinkedInJun 14, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Worth it beyond the material
I went with Nucamp mainly because they are the most affordable. When I researched them I saw a lot of great things about them. After going through multiple courses here I can say it's worth it. Beyond the great course material that they are actively updating, the community and the instructors are amazing. I never once felt like a bother to anyone and my instructors regularly went above and beyond. - Jaime GomezSan FranciscoVerified by LinkedInJun 13, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

Web Development Fundamentals
I enrolled in Nucamp because of the affordability compared to other bootcamps, and the depth of topics that they cover throughout. After completing the Web Development Fundamentals course, I'm confident that I have a solid foundation on which I can continue to learn and grow as a developer. - Doug KissackStudent • Web Development Fundamentals • OnlineVerified by LinkedInJun 12, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Web Development Fundamentals
I enrolled in Nucamp's complete software engineering track to transition away from a career as a sales engineer. So far, I have finished the web development fundamentals bootcamp. The course gave a decent beginner's look into HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, although I think it would be better suited as a 6-week course with more time to focus on certain areas. My instructor was a full-stack web developer outside of her role at Nucamp and offered tons of outside resources and help throughout...I enrolled in Nucamp's complete software engineering track to transition away from a career as a sales engineer. So far, I have finished the web development fundamentals bootcamp. The course gave a decent beginner's look into HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, although I think it would be better suited as a 6-week course with more time to focus on certain areas. My instructor was a full-stack web developer outside of her role at Nucamp and offered tons of outside resources and help throughout the week to keep me on track.
Where I feel Nucamp is lacking so far is the community aspect. They assign cohorts to private Slack channels and we all come together for workshops every Saturday, but in my experience everyone had their cameras off and mics muted, the workshop assignments were done solo, and there was basically no encouragement to interact with your cohort members.
If you are looking for a bootcamp with group work and lots of interaction with peers, I might suggest to look elsewhere. But as a beginner's look into the world of front-end web development, Nucamp is an affordable and high quality option for a solo learner. - Peter KestlerSDET-1 • StudentVerified by LinkedInJun 12, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A

The instructor was brand new and the course material was not that great so a lot of the time we were left to fend for ourselves. That being said I ended up leaving the company when I felt I was underprepared for work in the automation field and took a short break from coding altogether. One day I was browsing through Facebook and saw an ad for Nucamp and did a little bit of research. It offered the program that I wanted in a language that is not going anywhere anytime soon. So far from what I have seen and experienced after 4 weeks, I am already ahead of where I was after 6 months with my previous internship. I only hope that Nucamp can continue to impress me and help me achieve my goal of ending up in web development. - Megan GreenStudent • Web Development Fundamentals • OnlineVerified by LinkedInJun 10, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A

I was in need of a career change and have been interested in coding for the last year or so. I interviewed with a few schools and researched a handful of coding bootcamps. I finally decided on Nucamp due to their communication response time, affordable courses and flexibility with coursework. I am happy with everything so far!
