Front End
I originally found Nucamp on Reddit. I decided to pursue it do to it being mostly self-driven with a flexible schedule and fair pricing. I just completed Week 5 of the Bootstrap course, and I am enrolled in the Front-end Bootcamp. The instructor was great, the curriculum was great. I learned a lot and there are plenty accessible resources for review. - AnonymousApr 23, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A

I am in IT but am unfamiliar or barely familiar with a lot of the languages and concepts that the Nucamp bootcamps teach. I think the courses are a very good value, especially compared to the "certification" courses that are associated with universities. If I'm going to retread some ground while getting a comprehensive groundwork of new concepts that are not particularly relevant to my current job, I'm happy to pay Nucamp's tuition vs the other bootcamps out there.
You could argue that you could get the same information out of books, but Nucamp provides a structured community with very responsive instructors when you're asking for help. And of course, for those of use who aren't the most self-starting in our personal life, having deadlines and real people to report to is extremely helpful and motivating.
I have a programming background, so I can't speak for folks who came in cold with no undertanding of variable types and arrays and loops etc., but I found the coursework manageable. - AnonymousStudent • Back End, SQL, and DevOps with Python • BellinghamApr 21, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

Satisfactory Experience with Nucamp
I wanted to launch a career in Tech, my wife came across Nucamp online and suggested that to me. For some reason I agreed to enroll and it turned out to be a great experience!

Web Development
Thought about coding for a few years and finally made the jump. I don't believe it was a bad decision because I've learned a lot about something I was interested in. I'd say if you want to get your feet wet before fully committing to full-stack, try this web development course out first. - AnonymousApr 03, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Review after finishing HTML, CSS and JavaScript courses
There's no right or wrong decision in enrolling at Nucamp, it's just a lot less expensive than many other bootcamps out there (except for the free ones).
In a short-four-week to study HTML/CSS/JavaScript, I can only say it was intense. One has to absolutely commit his/her time to study, research, and practice (and more practice!). Whether the materials are relevant, practical enough to prepare for the necessary skills to apply in the real world, only time can tell.

Whether the materials are relevant, practical enough to prepare for the necessary skills to apply in the real world, only time can tell.
I like the Nucamp for it allows a platform (we use Slack and Zoom) where i can communicate with other fellow students, share information or ask the instructor for help at any moment and get help quickly. The instructor was quite attentive to the students' progress. These were my major concerns prior to joining Nucamp at first but I was at ease after getting familiar with the system.
One thing Nucamp could revamp is its user-experience-presented-materials. I think it's all over the place, unattractive. Folders, subfolders, side navigation is confused if one has a smaller monitor where parts are cutoff/unseen on the top/bottom or on the left/right. It took me a while to get familiarized with it! - AnonymousApr 02, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

the price was very affordable and high positive reviews. it was the right decision. - AnonymousApr 01, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Fundamentals
Nucamp is a great decision. Nucamp provides all of the tools required to learn; all you have to bring is the ambition. The instructors were informative and helpful. I especially like how Nucamp makes it completely affordable for those wanting to make a change for the better. - AnonymousStudent • Full Stack Web and Mobile Application Development • San FranciscoMar 27, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Bootstrap course
I enrolled into Nucamp because of it's flexible schedule and it's relevant material. I took the full-stack course and so far I am not disappointed.
