Concordia Bootcamps

In 3 months of bootcamp I learned a lot! It's a very intense program and it needs a lot of dedication to finish the projects, I can say 50% is on you and 50% on teachers and the career support team if you wanna land on a job after graduation. So have... Read More a clear expectation about the time you are willing to spend and the result you are looking to achieve. In general if I go back and wanna make a decision on where to get my full stack development diploma again, I would definitely choose Concordia!

The curriculum is great and mostly up to date. Almost all the instructors are friendly and will definitely help you in every step of your journey. I'd definitely recommend having at least a basic knowledge of JavaScript to make the course a bit easier... Read More because it is very intense and you learn a lot of new technologies in only 3 months. So having a previous knowledge definitely helps you a lot. However, the best feature of the bootcamp is definitely the job support that comes after. They'll help you create a very good résumé and help you expand your network via LinkedIn and there is a career coach assigned to you who will meet you weekly. Furthermore, there are lots of networking event they provide, and they can help tremendously in your job search. All in all, it's a very intense program but due the job support that comes after, it's worth it.

Program: Full-Stack Web Development (Full-Time) Remarks: 1. Awesome Curriculum, intuitive and timely for the current job market. 2. Instructors and Career Service team fully Engaged. 3. Well recognized program in the Linkedin community. 4. Professional... Read More and resourceful Team.

The bootcamp was quite intense. Since I did the full-time option, it really was 10-12 hours a day, 5-6 days a week of hard work. By the end of the third week, you get used to sitting in front of your computer screen solving hard (real-life) problems.... Read More Luckily, you also get incredible support from the instructors who will try to help you figure things out when you get stuck (and not give the answers away). So, despite the spartan schedule, it was actually fun. It wasn’t hard, and I felt like everything was within reach. Pros: The curriculum covers most major machine learning techniques so you get to work on a lot of relevant projects throughout your course. You make friends along the way - as people are just in the same boat as you are, figuring things out together makes you a sort of "band of brothers". Your determination is tested immensely and if you match up to it, you will absolutely make headway. The lectures had so much knowledge and information, and instructors were frequently available to clarify things during the workshops. Your programming skills are sharpened in a relatively short time This program was really worth the investment in myself as the value that students get from it is pretty astounding in terms of the content. However, it works well if you work at it. There's only so much the instructors can do by way of information, you are required to solve the problems yourself.

Before the bootcamp I did a little of bit of HTML, CSS and JavaScript but never went too deep. I think learning the basics is very important. Otherwise, you will struggle a lot. Now, the structure of the workshops, the projects and all the instructors... Read More are all absolutely gold and so well organized. Plus, once you graduate the carrier service and the events is something that I've never experienced before. They really take care of you and help you till the end. It is totally worth the money as long you take it serious and remember to ask questions if you don't understand something. Don't be shy!

Before enrolling in the Concordia Web Development Bootcamp, I had very little experience coding. I had only done about 30 hours of HTML, CSS and JavaScript combined. Starting this Bootcamp was definitely a leap of faith, but I am so glad I did it! Throughout... Read More the course, instructors were so helpful. I also learned to leverage my cohort, all of whom taught me so much. Bootcamp was REALLY hard work, but I made it through. Three months after graduating I am starting a really good job at an exciting company. One of the best parts of Concordia Bootcamp is Career Services. First I was paired with an excellent career coach and technical coach. They helped me polish up my CV, LinkedIn and technical knowledge and had encouraging words along the way. Next, Career Services offered information sessions with prospective employers, career fair and practice job interviews. It was through Career Services that I was connected with my current employer. I can't wait to start my new job! Thank you Concordia Bootcamps!

I went through knowing almost nothing about programming to landing a job as a software developer shortly after I finished the bootcamp. Even though the amount of things I didn't know was intimidating at times, I never felt like I was alone, the instructors... Read More were very helpful and understanding. You get a lot of time to work through problems by yourself with the option to ask questions. I liked the remote aspect of the bootcamp, there were opportunities for your own projects and to work in groups, and the languages learned are relevant and in-demand. This is not an issue with the program, more so the nature of doing bootcamps: it can be incredibly overwhelming! You learn a lot simultaneously and there's so much you don't know, even after completing the bootcamp. I was very thankful to have the career support to walk me through continuing to build up my skills and apply for jobs, as that helped make the process less intimidating

I really liked the Concordia Bootcamp. From the instructors to the other students I've met, the workshops, the projects, and the coaching and support, it was a great experience. The online formula was handled well so even though it was remote, I didn't... Read More feel alone. I also found a very well-paid job with amazing benefits 1 month after graduating from the course, so I consider that it was a great investment.

I chose this program for two reasons: they had a part time program, and they had career support after completing the program. The bootcamp curriculum was reasonably solid, and greatly accelerated my learning compared to self-taught. The coaches were accessible... Read More during class hours, and the transition to online-only was quite smooth considering the short timescale they had to work with. Overall, it was an excellent pedagogical experience. The career support was also excellent - establishing a minimum number of applications per week, plus coaching on interviewing and simply providing motivation, was extremely helpful. The cost of the program was well worth it just for the career support at the end.

They weren't lying when they said it would be intense! The subject matter is complicated, the lectures were sometimes really long and difficult to follow, and the work could easily pile up if you didn't stay on top of it. However, the instructors were... Read More knowledgable and patient and never failed to guide me through any of my problems. Some people don't like doing schoolwork online, but it was ideal for me being deaf to communicate solely through writing. They also provided me with a subscription for a voice recording app which helped during the lectures. I felt that some of the workshops could be improved, the instructions were a bit vague and difficult to understand at times and typos which held things up - but I believe it was good practice for actual coding. I really enjoyed working on my final project and the freedom to do whatever I wanted with it. After graduation, they provided excellent career services and I was able to land a job within 2 months. Overall, an awesome experience and I'm very grateful to the whole team!
