DigitalCrafts

I had no experience prior to DigitalCrafts and my experience was great! The curriculum is based on in-demand technologies that I feel are going to help me find a job soon. This is a bootcamp, so there will be times where you may feel like you're taking... Read More in too much information, but for the most part, I would say that's completely normal and I didn't feel like that most of the time.

I entered this program with little experience and came out a true, full-stack software developer. I cannot recommend this place enough as I only have positive things to say about my experience here. All of the staff that I interacted with were fantastic.... Read More They all seemed to genuinely care about my success in the future and did everything they could to help. The curriculum itself is fantastic and gave me all of the tools I needed to enter the job field with confidence. If you are unsure of where to attend I cannot recommend DC enough!

DigitalCrafts is a very thorough bootcamp. I attended the full-stack immersive course and it was extremely well done but also a non-stop flow of information that at times can become overwhelming. If you already have some knowledge of web development you... Read More will have no problem grasping the concepts taught at DC. I can't say that anyone coming in with no experience will be job ready by the end of this course but they do provide lots of resources to aid in securing employment post-graduation. Overall attending DC was a great experience and I recommend it to people with a proclivity for problem-solving, a desire to learn A LOT, and a self-starting work ethic.

Coming from a non technical background and looking for a career change, I could not be more satisfied with my decision to put my software development education in the hands of DigitalCrafts. Aside from learning a ton of different programming languages... Read More within 16 weeks, the network that is built within the same 4 months makes it well worth it. From career services to the best instructor I have ever had, the DigitalCrafts experience is unmatched.

I attended the immersive bootcamp online. It was four months, and VERY full time. It's a commitment that is well worth it. The curriculum is up to date and the teachers are passionate about the subjects. The company provides support before, during and... Read More after the program. They provide extra help during and after class hours, mentorship and have a whole student success team to help with the job search and resumes.

PROS Every class will have one instructor and two assistants that have completed the class within the last year or so that has a better idea of your level of expertise than the teacher might. I can't speak for every teacher, of course. but I was stoked... Read More that my teacher has been coding since middle school and has an enormous amount of time and experience in the industry where things change so rapidly. My teacher would stop to make sure would understood complex subjects and even went above and beyond to teach things that may have not necessarily been part of the curriculum but, in their experience, was important to cover. CONS: The course never really went too deep into algorithms which isn't required for some job interviews but understanding these concepts is important to working at larger tech companies. Granted, there is only so much time to teach everything in a field that requires you to know a lot but I would have been grateful for a week dedicated to just that subject.

Pros of DC: - supports your coding journey with knowledgeable instructors and teaching assistants - pushes you to take on projects where you continue to learn as you go and develop a well-rounded skillset - gives you structure during your learning journey... Read More and pushes you to code every day - very frequent surveys and check-ins to monitor how they can improve to help you succeed - great career services team (help with resumes, portfolios and a chance for a mock interview, and posts relevant job openings for you to apply) - connects you with a vast network of other DC alums Cons of DC: - fast-paced due to the amount of material you have to cover (however, covering a lot of material is also a pro) - doesn't have time to cover in-depth theory behind what you are learning, focuses on practical skills instead - if you don't like working in teams then this could be a con, most of your projects will be team-based

The instructors were extremely competent. Solid style and they didn't get off topic with overly inflated concepts to flex how smart they are which makes them easy to follow and didn't make me feel elementary or discouraged. They all questions or get you... Read More pointed in the right direction to find it yourself.

I have a background in construction and building, but had no experience in software. After attending DigitalCrafts online bootcamp I came out confident in the job market and with a tool belt filled with the latest cutting edge technologies and languages!... Read More My instructors really cared about my success in the course and were always willing to stay after hours to make sure I wasn't lost. Don't get me wrong, bootcamps are really hard, especially for someone with no background in software, but it's not impossible. DigitalCrafts is there to help you navigate through your new way of thinking in the tech world and will do everything in their power to ensure you are well prepared for the job search after.

I completed the part time flex bootcamp. It was all virtual. I started in August and ended in March. I really enjoyed my experience. I learned a ton and really felt like the teachers and other staff care about me and want to do everything they can to... Read More help me get a software developer job. I tried learning to code many times, but lacked the discipline and plan to learn on my own. DigitalCrafts provided the support and plan that I needed. If you can learn on your own, that's the cheapest option. But if you are like me and need/want the support of fellow learners, teachers and a plan to learn then I 100% recommend DigitalCrafts!
