Actualize

Amazing learning experience! Was able to start out as a newbie coder and create my own app towards the end. Everyone was encouraging from start to finish.

Will always look back fondly at my time here.

I went in to this bootcamp with virtually no coding experience and by the end I had made a web application from the ground up and presented it to a panel. Very pleased with how much I learned here and the support I received from the instructor and TAs.... Read More The job hacking portion of the class was a major help to me. I would not have been able to advertise myself this well to employers without it. I look forward to my new brighter future as well as seeing where my fellow classmates end up. The community of our class was fun and always willing to lend a hand.

I found Actualize based on the Course Report reviews. The experience certainly met, if not exceeded, the expectations that I had upon entering. The curriculum gives you a good basis in languages that are applicable in the corporate world, but the most... Read More important aspect is on how you learn what you are learning. This focus gives you a good way to expand you base of knowledge outside of your class experience because of the emphasis on linear thinking and problem decomposition. Upon signing up, I was mildly skeptical about the overall length of the course, being that many are 6-8 months, but I found that to be unnecessary skepticism. The 12 week live portion plus the 5 week pre-work is the right amount of schooling to prepare you for the future. The daily schedule allows for flexibility to get out-of-class work done on your time, rather than keeping you in class 8-9 hours/day. Also, with a cohort size of < 15, you have the ability to connect with your instructor, TAs, and career advisory team frequently, without having to wait in a line of 50-100 other students with the same needs. Stellar program, 10/10 would recommend.

Actualize delivered on everything that I expected going into the bootcamp. The curriculum was great in giving me a solid foundation of skills and concepts. But most importantly I feel empowered to go out and learn any language or skill that I feel passionate... Read More about or interested in. Dani was a great instructor and provided the right balance of guidance and instruction paired with the opportunity to solve problems and tackle challenges on our own using the skills we learned.

Coming from a background of traditional college education, Actualize is a breath of fresh air. The small class sizes, staff that are all very friendly, and a very clear program designed to teach vital skills extremely efficiently all combine to produce... Read More an education experience that I absolutely enjoyed. It is a lot of content, very quickly, but they do a great job at providing help to stay on top of time management, and they are always available to help with homework. The whole experience was better than i even thought it would be. 11/10!

I just graduated from the Actualize coding bootcamp and was fortunate to have Dani Zaghian as an instructor. I have a masters degree and have taught for a number of years, and I would say that Dani is the best educator I've seen. She is incredibly thoughtful... Read More and organized, she presents an unbelievable amount of information over a short 3 months in a concise and efficient manner. She's tough but fair and was, I believe, a real inspiration for our entire cohort. It's a testament to the very thoughtful curriculum at Actualize. I would also say that Lisa and Sarah in the Job Hacking section of our program are phenomenal, and an invaluable resource.

Dani was my instructor and she was amazing! I chose actualize as it was live on zoom (which held me accountable) and also during the day rather than at nights/weekends as many other bootcamps are. The 12 weeks flew by, and I truly feel like i learned... Read More SO much in such a short period. Everyone in my class was awesome, and the TA's (David, Mackenzie, & Winston) were all super helpful and patient. Lisa the Career counselor has been super helpful every step of the way and I am sure will continue to be after class ends. Doing the capstone project was a great way to prove to myself how much I really did learn and am able to do now. I would highly recommend Actualize to anyone looking to learn full stack web development - it really was a great experience from beginning to end!

I took a chance and signed for a coding bootcamp in the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic and I was super apprehensive (having absolutely zero background in coding) but this experience has been amazing. The instructors are extremely engaging and the classwork... Read More itself was difficult but doable. I feel like I learned so much in a short span of time, but most importantly, gave me a solid foundation that I can now build off of. I highly recommend Actualize to anyone who's looking for a coding bootcamp.
