"Perfect for Procrastinators!"
First off, let me tell ya, if you're after a simple way to snag a certificate, THIS IS IT! To kick things off, you don’t even need to worry about the homework. After the initial 'stack', where I really hustled to turn in my assignments, the teacher mentioned they don’t even check them. So, I just stopped submitting. Which was fine, 'cause the exam was a total breeze that I passed without even touching the homework. Their statement about the instructors being 'industry pros' was totally misleading. I had five teachers. Only one actually had any real-world experience. The others were just fresh grads with no clue about the field. I’ll admit it was a tad pricey, but considering I hardly had to lift a finger to graduate, it’s not too shabby.

"Highly Recommend This Bootcamp"
Coding Dojo is a fantastic place to kick off a career in tech. It offers all the things I wanted - flexibility, practical learning through reading, videos, and projects, a wonderful online community, excellent career assistance, and a variety of paths to suit your needs.

"Advantages and Disadvantages"
Advantages: the teachers, the complete course structure, assisting in developing your skills as a full stack developer, and the digital learning platform.

Disadvantages: The career services group. They seem overwhelmed and can’t provide adequate support for every student. For instance, I sent my resume for feedback and didn’t get a response for two weeks, only to have it reviewed during a meeting. Plus, they lack connections with companies to help you land a job.

"College wasn't my thing."
Bootcamps and trade schools offer a solid alternative to traditional college, especially if you're not quite sure about your career path or life direction. Coding Dojo equipped me with all the tools I needed to thrive in the program. I could either take my time or get ahead as I pleased. They have a clear system for attendance and assignments, so you won't feel lost about what to tackle next or where to go. Each teacher has their unique style of instruction; some may resonate with you while others might not, but you've got the support of your peers and the platform to connect with.

"Kicked off this program with no prior knowledge..."
I kicked off this program with no prior knowledge. I had a solid platform to teach myself and access to past lecture recordings. The learning platform was also nicely designed and kept up to date. Overall, it was a fantastic experience.

"Full-Stack Developer Experience"
I was a full-stack developer for the last few months until about a month back. I gained a ton of knowledge in Angular 13, TypeScript, .NET 6, and Entity Framework. Right now, I'm working as a frontend developer at Ghadeer Future Accelerator, and I'm really happy with my position.

"An awesome learning experience"
This program was fantastic! I managed to pick up three complete stacks in a brief period, all thanks to my GI Bill. Diving into various stacks helped me figure out which one I wanted to focus on for my career.

"Awesome spot for coding lessons"
I jumped into this program with no prior knowledge. They did an excellent job of explaining coding in a way that made sense to me. The teachers were super supportive, and the material was top-notch! I couldn't have asked for anything better. The learning platform was also nicely designed and kept up-to-date. Overall, it was a fantastic experience.

"Somewhat Deceptive"
Earlier this year, I finished the part-time flex program at Coding Dojo. All in all, my experience was pretty good. My instructor was really knowledgeable and patient, and the TAs were quite responsive and helpful. However, my main issue is that what I picked up wasn’t worth the cost. I only grasped the basics of full stack web development. It hit me pretty fast after graduating that what I learned in the bootcamp isn’t nearly enough to land a job. And that’s alright, but Coding Dojo should be more honest about the fact that you’ll need to put in a lot more months of self-study before you’re even close to being job-ready. They don’t say that because it’s not what prospective students want to hear, but it’s the reality. If I could rewind time, I’d save myself $7000 and just teach myself to code.

"Coding Journey During Pregnancy and Newborn Days"
While I was expecting and after having my baby, I picked up coding. The platform is super flexible and engaging. You get to choose your own speed, catch lectures either live or on replay, and there's always the chance to get live assistance. I'm eager to enroll in more courses to enhance my skills!

"Fantastic Learning Journey"
I had a fantastic learning journey. Before this, I took some courses on Udemy and was picking things up, but it was a slow grind. The CodingDojo bootcamp really sped things up for me. The instructors were incredible—shoutout to Ana, Adrien, Saurabh, Michael, and Nichole. I also met some wonderful folks, and honestly, I find myself missing it sometimes.

To wrap it up, this is an awesome spot for beginners or even those with a bit of experience. If it weren't for CodingDojo, I wouldn't have snagged my first developer job at Accenture. A heartfelt thanks to everyone who helped me reach my goals.

"Top-notch Coding Bootcamp!"
This is the training program you gotta check out to boost your skills. It's pretty intense, so be ready to put in the effort to earn your belt. The instructors are top-tier in their expertise, always approachable and friendly. If they’re busy, the teaching assistants are also around to help out. You can easily arrange a meeting with them to tackle any problems you might face. My journey has been in Full Stack Python on a part-time basis, but honestly, it feels more like full-time because of how demanding and valuable it is. You really need to commit enough time to ace the belt exams at the end; it’s all on you. There’s plenty of material, classes, exercises, and support available—everything you need to learn and exceed your expectations. I wholeheartedly recommend this Bootcamp, and I’m definitely planning to enroll in another one!

"Worth Every Penny!"
Wow, this is intense! But totally worth it! Diving into full stack development across three languages might seem daunting, yet the way it's laid out makes it super easy to grasp. The teachers are really good at being there when you need assistance, and my group was fantastic, often burning the midnight oil to wrap up assignments. The only downside I see is the cost. It's a bit pricey to get this education, but there are ways to ease the financial burden. Once you finish, though, the possibilities are limitless.
