Great for Testing the Waters, or Fully Diving In.
I enrolled in Nucamp because I am determined to change my career and join the tech industry. I was not yet ready to commit to spending thousands and thousands of dollars, and Nucamp seemed like a good way to test the waters. It was really comprehensive and more personal than I expected for an online course (here's hoping to more in person capability soon, darn covid). I learned a lot, and the pace of the course kept me engaged and motivated. I learned enough to stay interested and reward...I enrolled in Nucamp because I am determined to change my career and join the tech industry.

It was really comprehensive and more personal than I expected for an online course (here's hoping to more in person capability soon, darn covid). I learned a lot, and the pace of the course kept me engaged and motivated. I learned enough to stay interested and rewarded, and was hit with enough tough concepts to keep me challenged. - Kris Q.Customer Service Manager • Student • Web Development Fundamentals • Orange CountyVerified by LinkedInJan 31, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Worth it!
At first, I was skeptical of how much I would absorb from going at our own pace with a Saturday workshop. Looking back, I can definitely say that you need to be sure to put in the time and effort to review all the material you are given for the week. Definitely 2-3+ hours was required per day and maybe you could take one day off and still get through.
Overall, I feel I got what I put into it, and compared to other boot camps, this one is quite affordable.

Overall, I feel I got what I put into it, and compared to other boot camps, this one is quite affordable. Our instructor was very knowledgeable and I certainly plan to go into the Full Stack course as soon as possible. I would highly recommend that if you are on the fence about a boot camp, at least jump into the Website Fundamentals to see if this type of structure is right for you. - Irene QuirosStudent • HoustonVerified by LinkedInJan 30, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Best way to get started!
I really enjoy the flexibility of this bootcamp. From Monday to Friday I was able to go through the videos, slides, exercises and the additional resources to understand and practice the task of the week. My instructor was always available whenever I had a question or when something just didn't run. I never expected to learn so much in such a little amount of time.

Review
The price was very affordable. At first I didn't know it was the right decision but as I went through the course I came to the decision that it was! I learned so much with my time at NuCamp and have learned more and got more clarity than I did trying to self-teach. - David M.StudentVerified by GitHubJan 09, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Smooth Learning Experience
I've always wanted work in the tech industry but I didn't know how to get started without spending a fortune on college or other bootcamps. Then I found out about Nucamp and figured it would be the best way to get into the tech industry without breaking the bank incase I realize that this isn't for me. So far the experience has gone smoothly and I'm actually learning how to make websites. This has been an investment I haven't regretted. - MikeStudent • Student • SeattleVerified by LinkedInJan 04, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A

I enrolled in the full-stack camp, which is noted as an intermediate/advanced level. There are 3-4 courses that are involved with the entire class. This first section - the Bootstrap course - was rather entry level. Even though I had never used Bootstrap extensively, this was not as advanced as I had in mind. I did learn, just not in the step-forward I personally was looking for.

Even though I had never used Bootstrap extensively, this was not as advanced as I had in mind. I did learn, just not in the step-forward I personally was looking for. This Bootstrap course would be great for those that have some programming experience with JavaScript, and would like to learn about a frontend framework. If you know/have used a frontend framework, this may feel like a refresher for the most part. - Shawn ConnellyVerified by GitHubJan 02, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Full stack developer course
Definitely a good value in comparison to other online courses. Very hands-on. There is a ton of information covered in a short period of time, though, so you've got to come prepared with a clear schedule. - EricStudent • Back End, SQL, and DevOps with Python • OnlineVerified by LinkedInJan 02, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Backend, SQL, and DevOps with Python
Nucamp has been a great experience. Provides a tremendous amount of information in a comprehensive and structured format to help connect and understand the concepts and build on your understanding. The work and learning are largely on your own, but you have a cohort and access to instructors when you just can't work through a challenge alone. It is a great program. - JosephVerified by GitHubJan 01, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Nucamp has been a great choice!
After considering different coding bootcamps, I chose Nucamp for its flexibility and low cost. I can easily work alongside my learning. Right now, after just completing the Python course, I've felt the teaching and coursework has largely been clear and at a comfortable pace. I'm excited to keep making steps toward being a developer, as we begin the SQL course soon! - J.

I realized that having a customer service job or a sales job you are treated as an expendable personel. I saw my commisson check slashed and realized that anyone could do what I could do. So I joined Nucamp because I am a working adult and I wanted to attempt to become a programmer.

Nucamp has a bunch of programmers that are willing to help you. I would say that I learned a lot from my experience at Nucamp. I was constantly overwhelmed. There will be times where you will be very frustrated and you will have to wait on people to help you. If you are committed and you utilize slack and you watch the videos and do all of the exercises you will learn a ton. But it will be a challenge. Message your instructors as much as you can and knowledgeable students.
