Coding Temple

I took a one day course at the coding temple over tableau. I had little to no experience with tableau, making me question if I would be able to keep up in the class. This was not the case. The instructor was very good at explaining any questions and would... Read More make sure the class was on the same page before moving on. The instructor would also go into detail on how you could apply these concepts in the workforce such as finding financial data. The class had a very interactive feel due to its size, almost like a one on one training session. Overall, I was very pleased with my experience at the coding temple. I was amazed at how comfortable I was with tableau after just a one day course. I would absolutely recommend their courses to anyone looking for a hands-on learning experience with a very helpful instructor.

I came into the .NET program with some freelancing experience in another language and a lot of self-education, and there were still times where I felt overwhelmed. It is a lot to take in and apply, but if you put in work, you'll get the results as I did... Read More a month after graduating.

Pros - Small class size means a good learning environment. An instructor that has many years of industry experience instead of TAs that are recent grads like at other bootcamps.
Cons - It would've been nice to have more time for projects instead of working on what to me was review of basic web development concepts.

I was always interested in learning how to code and being a developer, but thought I had missed the boat because I didn't study it in school. Then I found Coding Temple and was so excited to have the opportunity to learn how to be a software developer... Read More in just 10 weeks! It was scary quitting my job, but the bootcamp was more than worth it. I learned so much in the bootcamp and am thankful for the experience.

One thing I liked about Coding Temple more than other bootcamps is that it focuses on small class sizes. This was crucial for me because I didn't have much coding experience and I was worried about being left behind. My instructor Derek was a great teacher, answered all my questions, and made sure I really understood what we were doing. We worked on a lot of projects using the topics we were learning about and did one final capstone project. You really do get out of the class what you put into it though. You need to be invested and prepared to work hard.

Ripal has been great to work with for career assistance. He has connected me with recruiters and companies, helped me with my resume, and how to talk about my experience. I graduated less than a month ago and have already had 10+ first round interviews, 2 second round interviews, and 1 final interview. There really is a demnad for developers and Coding Temple will teach you everything you need to know.

I came into Coding Temple with virtually no coding experience. By the end of the 11 week program I found myself thoroughly understanding the way many languages work, and I had the knowledge to enter interviews with confidence. The portfolio you build... Read More is sure to impress many prospective employers. I was able to land a job in downtown Chicago a little over a month after completing the program.

Keep in mind, this place doesn't work miracles. You should be curious and dedicated - put in your share of effort and you'll be just fine. The small class size provides an excellent opportunity to ask questions and learn as much as possible. The instructors are extremely knowledgeable.

Honestly I'm not sure where to begin, as I have so many great things to say about Coding Temple. Not only did they create a fun filled environment full of coding, they went above and beyond throughout the entire process.

I was originally looking into taking... Read More the Python course in Boston, and ended up switching to take an earlier class in D.C., which they graciously helped me out in finding a place and getting setup in the area. I couldn't be happier with the way things panned out, as the location was great and the class went extremely well.

The instructors here were knowledgeable and made coding an enjoyable experience. It's always tough when people are coming in at different coding levels, but it was both tough on the experienced students and easy to pickup for the students that had never coded in their life. Derek (my instructor) was wonderful and helped us every step of the way with any problem we had.

One great thing about this bootcamp is that they made the experience fun and personable. I now have a life-long friend in Derek, and a great network through the Coding Temple program.

For me it was easy to select Coding Temple because of the small class size, as I don't learn well when I can't ask questions. While at Coding Temple we were encouraged to ask any questions, and it wasn't frowned upon to be behind, they'd even help you get up to speed if you needed the extra help.

Overall, I can't recommend this bootcamp enough, it was the best decision of my life, and I will be forever grateful towards the staff at Coding Temple for guiding me to what my career goals were.

Something to keep in mind is that, like any other bootcamp, you need to come in prepared and ready to work. I not only dedicated myself every day, but also every night to this program. To be a programmer, half the battle is applying it on your own, otherwise you forget what you just learned. Too many people think that they can just come to a bootcamp, show up, and they'll be a developer... it doesn't work like that. You need to be willing to put the effort in, and if you do, you'll get great results out of it.

If there's one more thing I can say, it's that this company is very personable and will help you out whatever the situation, they genuinely just want to see you succeed in everything that you do, and they'll do whatever it takes to help you reach your goals.

I completed the .NET program at the Coding Temple in Chicago and was very pleased with my experience. It is a very demanding and quick moving program but well worth the investment. The technologies and languages I learned during this program made finding... Read More a job easier because they up to date with what is currently being used. The projects that we worked on, both individually and as a group, made an excellent portfolio, and our final project served to give me excellent experience working on a fullstack project. On top of the knowledge gained they also prepared me to find a job after the program. Through mock interviews, resume building, and bringing in recruiters and representatives from tech companies I felt that they really cared about helping all of us find employment after the program. Big thanks to Ripal in particular for this. All in all I think that this program is worth the investment of both time and money, and should definitely be considered by anyone who wants to change careers and needs a foot in the door, or anyone who wants to get caught up in the field.

When I was first considering coding boot camps, I was very hesitant to make the investment. The Coding Temple reviews seemed too good to be true. After further investigation, I found out that some people I know through mutual friends have gone through... Read More the program and are very successful. I went in to meet the instructors and my mind was instantly at ease. Going through this program was the best career decision I have ever made. Not only did I gain a solid understanding of development, I learned how to debug and run through issues within programs. I tried the self-learning classes online and I now realize that the education I gained at the Coding Temple would have never been achieved if I continued to try and learn solo. It’s a very scary and intimidating process but in the end, I am extremely satisfied. It has been less than a month from my last day of class and I have had multiple job offers (I believe the only reason it took this long was because of the holidays). If you have any hesitations, I suggest reaching out to them or going in for a visit to see it for yourself.

I have to say that this is the hardest thing I have ever done. I also have to say it is the MOST worthwhile thing I have ever done as well! 10 weeks; 10 languages/technologies... SUPER FAST PACED! It was a lot of information to take in and make sense... Read More of in such a short period of time, but if you can do it, you will learn so much! There were points in time in the class where I thought I would have a nervous breakdown because I thought I couldn't do it and had dished out a big chunk of change to take the class.... IT IS HARD! If you go here, and you feel the same way, PUSH THROUGH IT! You can do it! And it is worth it! The instructor is there to help. My instructor, Joe, was the most well informed programmer that I have ever met, and was super helpful at getting one to understand the material. After the 10 weeks, there is an optional job placement week 11. Take advantage of this! Ripal will get you and your resume ready to do what it takes to get a job and get you in touch with the right people to do so as well. I recommend this bootcamp whole-heartedly. If you do go, I am positive you will be writing a review like this yourself when you are done.

Small classroom setting
1-1 interaction with the instructor (TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THIS)
A lot of job preparation

I attended a Coding Temple Winter course back in 2016. I had graduated with a finance degree, but shortly after my job search I had realized that many of the jobs that I had an interest for required some sort of technical background. The course was tough and did require me to put in a lot of work outside of the classroom setting. The instructors were always willing to help, and provide any assistance at any time of the day. Coding Temple provides a lot of hands on training, which goes a far way. I was able to explain my projects in full detail during my interviews. Ripal does a great job of prepping us of what to expect after Coding Temple.

I found this to be the most effective way to learn how to code! The instructors are extremely knowledgeable and take on any question you have.
