Claim Academy

It's a very fact paced curriculum and is split up into different blocks. The first part of the day is going over exercises and reviewing the previous day's lecture. The day is capped off with the lecture. Throughout the course employers and alumni come... Read More by to give presentations, to help network. Near the middle of the course they teach soft skills and resume building, along with mock interviews. Best of all they take the GI Bill, so as a veteran it didn't cost me anything to attend.

Hands-on learning and industry standard instruction. Actual programming experience instead of useless theory and time wasting filler classes.
Full time immersive program is 9 hours a day and a huge commitment. Staff is always helpful and willing to do... Read More what it takes to help you if you need it. It takes a good amount of self control and dedication but if you work hard and push yourself you can really learn a lot about what it takes to be a Full Stack Developer!
The building was always clean and a heroic effort was made to sanitize the whole building every day.
When we were forced to move to a mostly virtual format due to the St. Louis County requirements they still kept the building open and provide help even while following the guidelines.
Getting grads employed seems to be HIGH on their list and Ola and the team seem to work hard to prepare us for interviews and line up potential employers.

I learned a lot in a short amount of time. I agree that there is a hard learning curve. You should be prepared to study and to dedicate most of your time, including your off-time to study and re-learn concepts. The instructors and mentors are very knowledgeable,... Read More and provide multiple projects and many resources to help you. You get lots of time to work with your classmates and learn together, too. The soft-skills training and job placement assistance is also very valuable. If I had not attended Claim Academy, I seriously doubt I would have been able to put everything together and create a full stack of software in order to develop an app like I did.
Additionally, the pandemic hit in the middle of my time at Claim, and Claim responded very well, by switching to a blend of online classes and mentoring, with the option to attend in person while maintaining social distancing rules via a schedule. Claim has been very supportive throughout my entire process of being a student, and I highly recommend them.

Learned alot, you can too if you apply yourself. Had trouble with St Louis in general, but the course itself is great. Hard learning curve. Be prepared to study and to dedicate time. The instructors give you many resources and opportunities to help you.... Read More You also can work with your classmates if need be. A good handful of projects to work on. Be prepared to dedicate your time off to study and re-learn on your own! Worth it.

If you're looking for a challenging environment where you can go from little to no coding experience, to developing your own application in under 12 weeks, this is the place to go. The 12-week courses are very dense, move very quickly, but between the... Read More instructors, studying with your cohort, and the mentors who are available during the day, I think almost anyone can make it through this program.

It was a good experience while at Claim the team was friendly and open to go out of their comfort zone just to make sure everything was satisfying. They help to apply for job opportunities also. Am now ready to put my skills to more practice. If you looking... Read More to be in a tech field it’s definitely the place to start.

Claim academy has fantastic instructors, especially Lamar who made our education fun and was always willing to help us individually. We learned a massive tech stack over 3 months. I had done some learning on my own prior to Claim but always seemed to... Read More hit a wall where I struggled to know what to do next. The things I learned at Claim academy helped me to move beyond that and feel I am ready for a job as a developer. I am currently still searching for a job and am still using Claims resources to do so. Once I manage to secure a position I would update my review to 5 stars across the board.

Overall a good experience. I learned a lot and would recommend to anyone thinking about learning how to code. This thing is asking me for 150 characters and I don't really know what else to say so I'm just gonna ramble for a sentence or two... maybe three... Read More but probably not 4. Ok that's 300 so we good

The staff here was very helpful and helped me learn very fast. Even having to be gone a lot of family events and medical issues I was able to catch up still and get my work done. At the end a few days before we presented our capstone project I had a hard... Read More drive issue and lost my project but the helped me get it done again in just a few days.

Imagine a truck driver creating an application writing lines of code just under 12 intense weeks of study and mentoring. thats what Claim Academy did for me, i was able to acquire sort after skills set that employers of today really need to drive thier... Read More business
