Concordia Bootcamps

The teachers at this data science bootcamp seriously lack education and experience. It's clear that the assignments and materials are simply copied from well-known books and resources. On top of that, after graduation, they barely organize a few events... Read More within the first month, and then there's complete radio silence for the remaining six months. It's disappointing to see that the success rate for finding related jobs in my cohort is less than 10 percent, and none of the successful individuals had any help or references from the bootcamp.

An excellent preparation for a first job in the industry, MERN stack but also strategies for quickly and effectively learning languages on the job. Instructors are top class, the course moves very quickly, and the post course career services are great.... Read More Prepare for it to be very tough, but you'll get out of it what you put in.

They say bootcamps are rough - and they are. But they're also incredibly satisfying. I learned more in the 3 month span of attending Concordia bootcamp than I probably have in any other 3 month period of my life. There's in-depth instruction across all... Read More the fundamentals of Data Science - from statistics and probability to the implementation of deep learning networks. For someone without a formal background in any of the subjects, it was definitely challenging. However, if you're truly committed to the process, you will not regret it. After graduation, Concordia offers a series of workshops and lectures, as well as individual coaching from their in-house career coaches. They really set you up to succeed in your job search and help provide all the tools and direction you need to market yourself effectively to employers, and shine through the interview process. I highly recommend Concordia to anyone looking to make a life-changing move into a career in tech.

Full-stack web development bootcamp. Very informative, helps with getting familiar with the technical languages. It is intensive but everything is taught a satisfying level. If you're someone who doesn't have any background knowledge in coding then it... Read More can be tough and after you finish it is still kind of hard to get a job as you are someone with no background, if I were to go back in time, as someone who didn't have any background in coding I would have done an A.E.C program. If you are someone with background in coding then this is definitely the option as you save time and get a diploma from a prestigious university.

Recently I graduated from Concordia University Web Development Bootcamp. The course was so intensive that if anyone keeps continuing daily projects, will surely learn a lot and get confidence gradually. I like to mention that instructors are really helpful;... Read More if you get stuck for 20 mins, you should never hesitate to get help from them. I assert that you'll certainly learn through problems. But I recommend that you must have prior basic knowledge about JavaScript, otherwise it's quite difficult to cope up with the pace of daily projects. I know some people really struggled without prior knowledge. I appreciate the career support from the bootcamp. Career coach helps significantly to prepare for the interviews with resume and cover letter correction, behavioral interview questions and valuable key information. I would suggest that you have to give extra effort to prepare yourself for technical interviews. I can't but mention about the career events what helped me to land my job at Deloitte within a month after graduation. I hope career events will be more efficient in coming days with all our feedbacks.

I was recommended in taking the course to expand my knowledge on Front and Back end development as the teachers and content in the course were supposed to be fantastic. That statement was horribly incorrect. The teachers are only passed students and were... Read More only reading the powerpoint slides then said to ask us questions if we had any, about 90% of the time they would not know the answer, or would just say to read some of the documentation on React or Javascript ES6. Overall a poorly managed environment ran by students instead of teachers. When it comes to job interviews, most of the interviewers said most of the candidates they saw had degrees or certificates were not hired because they did not have the ability to work out scenarios and make something work without precise instructions on what they should do. To finalize, look at courses inline like CodeAcademy or Udemy, or the sorts and build a proper portfolio and build on your problem solving and you would have saved money and the headache

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.
