Le Wagon

Coming from a Business Administration background, I was looking for a career change into Tech. While looking for a web development bootcamp there were so many options to choose from. With previous bootcamp experiences, other bootcamps were online and... Read More lacked student/teacher engagement. After careful consideration of all the choices, I chose Le Wagon because they are different from the other bootcamps, Le Wagon was on campus. Learning to Code at Le Wagon was a life-changing experience, This was the best learning experience I've had. I actually enjoyed learning with the Professors and TAs and loved engaging with different students every day. This showed me how to collaborate with other developers and build friendships and relationships with people sharing the same passion. At first, I wasn't sure how I was going to adapt to a new career, but Le Wagon made it easy and showed me how much I loved coding and building projects. I was fortunate enough to complete the course, have an AWESOME demo of our projects, make new friends, and GET A JOB! 2 weeks post bootcamp. I'm very thankful for what Le Wagon has taught me and how much they helped me with their career services also.

Very intense and fast-paced but also very concrete and goal-oriented; Great support from the entire team all along the bootcamp; It's uncomfortable at times but you need to trust the process; everyone is doing a great job at reassuring you and they have...

I was a student of Le Wagon Berlin’s fulltime web development bootcamp in summer 2022. I would definitely recommend the bootcamp to anyone considering to become a full stack developer. I learned a lot in a relatively short period of time and greatly enjoyed... Read More my time in there. As an experienced educator, I know how the conditions of the learning environment can affect the learning experience and outcomes. Le Wagon does a great job in providing an environment that facilitates concentration, dedication, and feeling of belonging. As a student, it was important for me to work with people who actually like doing their jobs. I have got the impression that Le Wagon's teaching team cared about every student, but they also personally enjoyed helping students with their challenges. That helped us a lot with engagement. And it is not only the teaching team, but the entire Le Wagon staff work hard to not leave anyone behind in the process. They continuously track student progress and offer help in wide ranging ways to make those ten weeks of the student go as smooth and productive as possible. I believe this demonstrates a healthy community spirit that is also reflected to the extracurricular activities they all do together. So it was not only an educating and personally enriching experience but also a fun one.

I completed the full-time web development bootcamp at Le Wagon and have nothing but good things to say about it! I went in knowing very little about coding (I have a background in healthcare) and came out of it feeling as though I had the tools and knowledge... Read More to get a junior developer role. The curriculum was fast-paced but there was always support available with the TAs and teachers. The most valuable thing that I learned was how to learn (and apply the knowledge). The campus was open and welcoming and I really enjoyed learning in-person as it felt much more immersive than virtual learning. The students and staff were a definite cherry on top and I made friends for life :)

Supportive learning environment. The boot camp is designed to be intensive and it teaches us how to teach like a developer. Expect to be challenged since there is always something new each day. Great community they have curated for your learning. Love... Read More the experience!

I’ve been working as digital designer for 5 years and always had interest in the programming aspects of web applications. I started le wagon lisbon’s part time bootcamp with high expectations that were more than fulfilled. Those were intense 24 weeks... Read More in the web dev (ruby on rails) bootcamp. I never felt so happy for a decision, I experienced a vibrating campus and nice staff. Every hour of commitment was worth it: fantastic atmosphere, engaging culture, high quality of lectures and materials, amazing TA’s and community. Not to mention awesome, creative classmates. I’m really proud for this learning journey, and specially surprised with my final delivery. It was an astonishing progress, something I could only dream about up until a few months ago.

Ce sont 9 semaines intenses et inoubliables que j’ai passées au Wagon cette année ! 9semaines challengeantes pour moi, n’ayant pas d’expérience particulière en IT et dans la Data. J’ai énormément appris, tant des enseignants que des étudiants qui ont... Read More apporté une effervescence particulière à mon Batch 🙂! Je recherchais une formation en présentiel, et mon choix s’est porté vers Le Wagon pour la qualité de l’accompagnement, la possibilité de passer une certification, et le super réseau qu’il permet d’intégrer. Je conseille vivement de sauter le pas pour vivre une aventure humaine et d’apprentissage riche. L’équipe encadrante est géniale, les supports pédagogiques sont bien construits et restent accessibles avec des MAJ régulières. Les activités annexes sont un vrai plus si vous pouvez y participer (sport, entretien avec des entreprises du secteur, "career week" pour mieux intégrer le monde pro,..). Je suis encore impressionnée de ce que j’ai appris en 9 semaines, et j’espère que cela dure. Ma Reco si vous vous lancez : prévoyez du temps pour le 'PrepWork', faites bien vos 'Flashcards' et pour le reste, 'Trust the process' !

"A little time (2 months) has passed since the end of my training at the Le Wagon, and what can I say ... I miss it! I spent two great months in a welcoming and human environment, with people who brought me a lot. The teachers were there to give us all... Read More the necessary material to understand the web development field. The work methodology in pair programming or team project mode allowed us to develop our understanding at another level. We were helping each other, learning together. Don't get me wrong, it's a hard adventure: two months of hard work are waiting for you but for me, learning to code at Le Wagon bootcamp is the best decision I ever made in my life. I met great people, learned with good vibes, experienced the stress of turning in a group project with a deadline, felt the satisfaction of creating something with my hands. Thank you Le Wagon."

Je ne pensais pas possible d'apprendre tout ce que j'ai pu apprendre en l'espace de seulement 9 semaines. Du contenu pédagogique à la qualité des instructeurs je n'ai que du positif à dire de mon expérience au Wagon Bordeaux. Si je devais donner un facteur... Read More vraiment différenciant c'est l'accès à vie à la plateforme utilisée et continuellement mise à jour par l'équipe pédagogique du Wagon. Je recommande fortement!

I completed the Data Science and Machine Learning Bootcamp with no previous programming knowledge except of self study before the bootcamp (my background is legal). It was definitely the most intense learning experience I've had so far, but probably also... Read More the most rewarding one, and a decision I'll never regret. The staff and teachers provide great guidance and support on every step, and the atmosphere at the campus is very welcoming and inclusive, which was very important for me as a non-tech person. I never believed it is possible to dive so far into ML in such a short time, and yet at Le Wagon they found a way :)
