Le Wagon

Just before finishing my business school degree I felt a real lack of technical knowledge. "Le Wagon" was a real rebirth!

At first I just wanted to have enough knowledge in order to exchange with developers, find out what is doable and know how to build... Read More a basic project.
But the staff will learn you much more; how to organise yourself, make you travel in the startup world, how to pitch your project, etc.
Now I want to know even more about coding. The staff is really amazing!!!!
If every school had the same way of learning stuff to people we would probably all be geniuses.

I can only recommend this program!

I worked in the digital industry (agency and product) for the 4 past years but was still really frustrated because I could not code my own idea and couldn't understand how the code works. I found le Wagon because they organized surf & code trip but i... Read More did not go. One year later i decided to join the 9wk program.

This was obsiously the best educational experience of my life.

A typical day at le Wagon starts by a course of 2h then you practice the rest of the day through many exercises (even some hardcore ones if you rock enough !). Practice makes perfect applies here. You can get help from the assistants who are for the most part former students so they really understand beginners. At the end you are able to learn new languages and frameworks by your own. That's just the beginning of your journey :-)

For 3 years before Le Wagon i always had startup ideas but couldn't make it myself. So I was thinking "I'll just hire an indian and he'll do it". Now i see what code is, and developers are my new gods. Dev skills are 95% of the value before you get traction.... Read More And it's only after that business skills are usefull. Now I have both, and I have amazing new friends. Thank you so much, i promiss we'll do great things now :)

No cons only pros, everything is perfect!
I start 9 weeks ago the fullstack bootcamp and now, I know how to code user friendly and powerful websites and apps thanks to LeWagon!!
They are very concerned in the well learning of their students and it was... Read More a pleasure to be there for 9 weeks!!
I really recommend it!!

This experience has changed my life in every aspects.

Overall, I learnt more than I could ever imagine in 9 weeks, I desgined, encoded and Pitch a full MVP, became enthusiastic and thrilled about my day to day job and I made a lot a friend that I'll keep... Read More for the rest of my life.

I'm now developping my own start-up and encoding new apps with confidence thanks to the vast and comprehensive program that I followed at Le Wagon and with the help of their powerful Alumni network and powerful intranet with exceptionally current & accurate resources I can access for the rest life anytime, anywhere!

Thank you for what you do and especially how you do it!

(not like a business but like a real organisation that has a duty to work towards the common good!)

I've just finished my 9 weeks bootcamp @ Le Wagon Paris, and I already talked 4 friends into it (and more are coming). It is THAT good folks.

What can I say to give you a fitting overview of my experience?

The staff is awesome.
The founders seem to posess... Read More a kind of secret, that allowed them to build the most rewarding learning experience of my life.
It's not really a secret actually: they've refined their curriculum over 15 batches of students and they built a tremendous learning platform to support it.

The new HQ in Paris is awesome.
A very spacious villa in the 11th arrondissement with all the equipment you need to literaly live here for 9 weeks. (OK OK you got me, there are no beds, but I think it's totally negotiable)

Your batch buddies are awesome.
The staff carefully select the students in their next batch, to create the best learning atmosphere you could experience. People around you are smart, determined to fulfill their objectives, and nonetheless fun to hang with.

The only obstacle you'll face when learning @ Le Wagon is yourself.
So buckle up, brace yourself, and go for it, coz' it's definitively worth your time and your money.

I'll leave you now with something you'll understand in your first day @ Le Wagon:

puts "@LeWagon is the best bootcamp to become an awesomer version of yourself :)"

Le Wagon helped me transform ideas into action. By the end of the program I already had an amazing Github portfolio and felt comfortable interviewing with employers. The teachers were so cool and having access to entrepreneurs and CEOs gave me the confidence... Read More to walk out of the program knowing I can get a job. The $6,000 dollar tuition was WELL WORTH IT. Let lewagon bring you new opportunities that you simply cannot learn online.
