HyperionDev

I was doing a Software Engineering course and it wasn't as smooth as I first thought it would be. I had no experience when I first started that's why it wasn't as smooth/easy. Some of the tasks are not bad but some are very hard, I hit some big walls... Read More at some points, but I didn't give up I guess that counts for something. Anyone who's about to join, remind yourself that it's a bootcamp so don't be like me and expect for it to be easy. Good luck👍!!

I was told by the admissions department that this course was suitable for complete beginners. It is not. The course content is written in an overly complicated way, expecting some previous knowledge and a lot of independent research. The examples used... Read More in the course material are so far removed from the compulsory tasks that they are unhelpful. At the end of every reading I feel lost. I have to read the compulsory task and spend hours researching the topic via google before I can even attempt the task. Once your task is reviewed you have to resubmit if it's below 75% correct. You receive your feedback but there is no option to message back to the reviewer. Which means if what they are requesting doesn't make sense or feels unfair you are on your own. I opted for a part time course and made it clear to the admissions department that I would be studying alongside a full time job. I made it clear I would only be able to dedicate 10 hours a week to the course. The pace of the course matched with the amount of research needed outside of the material provided by the course means I would never be able to complete this course within the allotted time. The amount of research needed outside of the course material means the course is a waste of money. I could spend 10 hours a week completing youtube tutorials and reading online forums and learn more than this course. I don't know what I have paid for as I do not feel I will come out of this course in 6 months with any confidence or ability to get a job in this field. They speak a lot about offering lots of support. My experience of the discord channel is the mentors on there don't understand how to teach a beginner. If they can't help you they refer you to book a longer call with a mentor. These calls are available mon-fri in normal working hours. However the availability is never next day which means you are on your own for at least a few days. Also, with managing studies alongside a full time job, it means most of the calls (when there are any available) are at times when I am at work. This course has left me feeling stressed and depressed. And down a lot of money!

I enjoyed my coding journey at HyperionDev, it hasn't been an easy one, but I enjoyed every step of it. My bootcamp was online and it wasn't too bad, the support from the mentors made it easier because if you're stuck you can get support from the mentors... Read More at any time, the response sometimes is delayed, but other than that I am happy and my skills have grown over the course of my bootcamp.

Firstly one needs to be excited and willing to put in the work. There's endless support through coonstant 24/7 commuication via the Discord app with the mentors and other peers and there's also the video calls one can book for more support. The feedback... Read More is quite quick. I'd highly recommend this and I wish Id known about it sooner

I was a total coding newbie with zero experience in coding but the way the online content is structured was quite helpful to someone who had no idea what coding was. The online support offered is also good especially the new Discord channel support chat!... Read More

I took the part-time Software Engineering bootcamp and my experience has been great. I enjoyed the content of the work. Some tasks were challenging but I had mentors, lecturers and other students to assist. The student support at HyperionDev was the best... Read More I've encountered. A big thanks to them!

The main pros of attending the bootcamp is that it gets you coding straight away without going through long winded tutorials. You also get feed back on your code and help when you get stuck with your projects Cons: not all the mentors are helpful and... Read More not a lot of time is spent on the mentor calls and you get only 8 calls a month however you can request for more support if need be.

The cons should be when they were having problems with location but its fixed now. The pros is the teachers are very helpful and they definitely know what they are doing. I enjoyed every bit of the course and i will definitely attend more courses. I also... Read More got to meet some great minds.

Hyperion Dev, was one of my favourite bootcamps and I'm planning to do the data science course next. I was doing the Software Engineering Course and the curriculum felt well structured and I never felt lost with the course material. When I needed help... Read More there was always a mentor that could help me figure out the problem if the friendly students/mentors in Discord chat didn't help me already. Overall I would reccommend this to any friends that want to change their career, or just people that want to learn more about programming. I've seen them improve and listen to feedback by students every day in my 6 month coding journey.

AS I COME TO THE END OF MY COURSE I CAN SAY IVE BEEN PROVIDED THE PROPER FOUNDATIONS TO SPREAD MY WINGS "CORNY YES" BUT VERY TRUE, HIGH LEVEL LANGUAGES MADE EASY, A STRUCTUER TO APPROACH LEARNING OF ANY MORDER PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE,PRACTICAL ACTIVITES...
