Eleven Fifty Academy

Aloha, I’m one of the original founders of Eleven Fifty academy and was married to Scott Jones.

I believe a school is as good as it’s president, so without further ado, I recommend you visit www.1150academy.com to find out more about who is running this... Read More academy.

Mahalo and God Bless.

I went here just wanting to get a stable job in the field without any field experience, and only knowing the fundamentals of some languages. At first it was pretty intense, but if you pull through and stick with the course you learn the languages and... Read More stacks, as well as what to build when you start bridging to other languages. I loved the teachers, they were all awesome, and helped me every step of way through the course. They teach the fundamentals, then dive into the complex stuff you'd work on in the field. Halfway through the course they start helping you find jobs, and they're very dialed into the Indy Tech network, which was a lifesaver for the stress of job searching. I can't thank Eleven Fifty enough for all it's help, and I'd love to spread some love so they can be heard. It's been a year since I worked at Eleven Fifty, check out my LinkedIn or Github. I don't have much experience, but I've came a long way and learned a bunch that I wouldn't have without them. https://www.linkedin.com/in/kieran-schwegman/ and https://github.com/roninMo . Anyways, take care guys, I learned more here than I did in college for stuff related to the field, and they helped me find a job! (;

I had a great experience in the program. It did a lot of good for my family. Finding a job was by far the hardest part. Once I did, I was able to double what I was making before attending. The instructors were amazing. The content covered was exactly... Read More what I needed. They did a great job at teaching me what I needed to get a job and keep learning on my own. It was well worth the time and cost to attend.

Pros: People, venue, and cohort coherence (at least mine was a classy bunch of people), plus lunch is provided (for full-time). The staff really cares about not getting you through the class but doing their job right as teachers.

Cons: Some of the curriculum... Read More is in flux, but this is constantly getting better and it doesn't mean they don't know what to teach you. The individual teachers are more than competent enough to work through anything that's a little bit under construction.

ElevenFifty was one of the best experiences I have ever had. I started with almost no coding experience. I had taken one class in high school and college on coding, but I didn’t really understand coding or even like it. During my sophomore year of college,... Read More I left Indiana University and joined ElevenFifty academy. I was able to learn how to code iPhone apps and backends. Afterward, without any college degree, I was able to make $84,000 in my first software developer job in California for a Cybersecurity company that has an app with 10 million users. Then, I ended up starting my own app company. I ended up building the entire iPhone and Android app and backend for my startup. My app has been downloaded thousands of times. We were accepted into the top startup accelerator in the world (Y Combinator) that has produced startups like Airbnb, DoorDash, and Twitch. We were featured in Forbes, and we were able to raise $1.5 million in venture capital on a $12 million valuation. ElevenFifty changed my life in many ways. Coding is the new form of literacy, and I highly highly suggest that you learn. ElevenFifty does a phenomenal job of getting you from 0 to 100! It does take some hard work, but it is definitely worth it.

I founded Eleven Fifty Academy, but I personally also took the early courses myself. as a student, to make sure we were making this the very best full-immersion training program (“coding bootcamp”) on the planet. I am so proud of our hundreds of graduates... Read More now who have transformed their lives, landing fun and fulfilling high-value careers in software development and cybersecurity.

One of the best decisions of my life was attending EFA. Went from no coding experience to my first job as an Associate Software Engineer in less than 6 months making almost double what I made previously. It's a fast paced program and you really need to... Read More spend every moment of it that you possibly can learning but it is well worth it. The staff and corses are incredible and easy to follow if you put in the effort. Can't think of a better experience in my life than EFA, and proud to have been a student!

I was working as a bartender before finding Eleven Fifty Academy. I knew I needed a career change, and I had always been in interesting in coding. The JavaScript course required a lot of work -- both in and out of the classroom. I would work on problems... Read More in the classroom and find my mind still thinking of possible solutions after class. The class changes your entire mindset and engages your problem-solving muscles. My teacher was willing to guide me to discover my own answers, allowing me to build better researching skills. I became extremely close to my classmates as we pushed each other to learn as much as we could in a 3 month period. I secured a job one month after graduation, and haven't stopped pursuing acquiring new tech skills! It's a great course, and the community really wants you to succeed here!

I recently finished a 12-Week course from Eleven Fifty Academy and I had an amazing experience. Through the help of career services I was able to secure a job as a junior developer before I even graduated. I highly recommend anyone who is thinking of... Read More switching their careers to tech to look into Eleven Fifty Academy. The instructors are extremely helpful and knowledgeable and you really get the sense that they care about your personal success. I felt supported and challenged the entire way through. EFA gives you a wide variety of different work-flow scenarios including a few group projects which helps you gain experience in the agile philosophy. I won't lie, it is a grueling bootcamp. You will be challenged, and you will put in a lot of hours but you will also learn so much, build projects you are passionate about, and gain confidence in your technical skills.

I attented Eleven Fifty Academy's Full Stack JavaScript cohort of December 2018. I cannot thank enough the shool and staff for this incredible learning opportunity. This is one of the best decisions I've made in my life. I was able to gain the skills... Read More to pursue a career I'm passionate about. Since day one the entire school was very supportive and made sure all the students had everything they needed to succeed (including snacks, drinks and lunches).

It is a very fast paced program (as expected for being an inmmersive training) and the technology skills they teach are very relevant to the current market needs.

After attending the program for 10 weeks I was offered a full time position as a Web Developer which I accepted right away!
