Le Wagon

Pros: excelente nivel, buenos profesores, su networking, excelente comunidad, su staff, aprendes cosas que realmente vas a necesitar saber Cons: por su costo puede llegar a ser no muy accesible para todos, realmente es intensivo y vas a necesitar enfocarte... Read More en el bootcamp

I liked a lot the structure of the bootcamp. I learned many complex topics in a couple of weeks. The bootcamp emphasizes learning by doing. Through really fun challenges one acquires the required skills to become a Data Scientist. Also, I acquiered experience... Read More by working on a project with a team.

I would highly recommend Le Wagon to anyone looking to gain coding skills quickly and effectively and physical face-to-face lesson coding sessions. The experience was great even though the first 3 weeks is tough, but you will sail through it. The program... Read More is well-designed, the instructors are top-notch, and the community is strong and supportive.

Doing the Web Development bootcamp at Le Wagon Lisbon was the best learning experience I’ve ever had. It offers an intensively immersive and hands-on learning experience, while providing a very welcoming environment for bonding both with my colleagues... Read More and all the staff. The program is designed to equip all the students with (super) practical skills in Web Development, which include Ruby on Rails, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Git, among others. At the end of the bootcamp it allowed me to develop my own projects and explore other frameworks and programming languages, which otherwise I couldn’t. And that’s the key advantage of doing the bootcamp, all the learning is transferrable to other languages, and it equips you to the job market and its specificities. The teachers at Le Wagon Lisbon are also very knowledgeable, experienced, and passionate about their work. They create a supportive learning environment that encourages collaboration, critical thinking, and problem-solving. The team is always available to answer questions and provide guidance, making the learning process seamless and enjoyable. Another aspect that sets Le Wagon Lisbon apart is its community. The bootcamp has a strong alumni network that supports and inspires current students to achieve their goals. There are regular networking events, job fairs, and talks that help students connect with potential employers, industry leaders, and peers. Wrapping up, for any questions you might have, the community is there for you. Overall, Le Wagon Lisbon is a fantastic Web Development bootcamp that offers excellent value for money. Nonetheless, don’t be misguided, the program is intensive and very challenging, but in the end the reward you get from it surpasses by a gigantic extent the value you paid for it.

Le Wagon is one of the few schools that combine a top-level learning curriculum with contributions from actual AI PhD researchers from renowned Parisian institutions to an innovative peer-to-peer learning approach that leverages a built-in platform. Frontal... Read More classes are accompanied by a gamified interface that randomly assigns pair of students for each day of class and incentivizes them to collaborate and help each other (exercises can only be completed if both students in the daily pair have finished their requirements). Extra coding challenges are available for more advanced levels. At the end of the day, a flash-card game helps memorize concepts from every lecture. Daily study support is provided by former alumni who work as TAs (teaching assistants) and are therefore already well-prepared for the bootcamp program. This circularity is really interesting as creates internal incentives to "give back to the community". Alumni can therefore gain field experience by supervising other students and becoming course teachers. Feedback from students is always valued and integrated into future coursework. Recurrent social gatherings and professional networking are organized between current students and alumni who are working in companies or who started a company. Learning material is forever available for alumni as well as many perks and ongoing support for professional development. A permanent Slack guarantees full access to the Le Wagon community. This bootcamp is a good investment time and money wise and I definitely recommend it!

I am impressed with the amount of knowledge I was able to acquire on the Data Science Bootcamp and the solidity of the program in both form and content. All in real kindness and support worthy of the name ⛰ Le Wagon is an intense adventure from which... Read More we emerge changed by the learning received and the encounters made, from students, teachers, managers to city or community managers. I am very happy to be part of this beautiful community.

I greatly enjoyed the bootcamp at Le Wagon. It was quite intense, and I'm glad I had some previous background in coding (mostly in R), but I learned a TON and would have never gotten this far with just online courses or youtube videos. The in-person instruction... Read More (and, relatedly, the incredibly kind LW staff and teachers) as well as the community I found in my batch truly elevated the whole experience to another level. Finally, I would like to say that through various social events organized by Le Wagon, my batchmates and I fostered some very close relationships, and some of my best friends in Berlin I found through Le Wagon. 10/10 would do it again, though I don't need to because Le Wagon already taught me everything I need to excel as a data scientist.

This has been an unforgettable experience! At Le Wagon I quickly developed a new skill, with the support of fantastic teachers, meeting new people, facing so many challenges everyday but in a good and fun environment. This is an intense experience. In... Read More my opinion, one of the best aspects of the Munich's campus is the teachers - they are amazing and helpful, always available to answer our questions and doubts. The atmosphere is familiar and the teachers really make you feel supported. The teachers even after the bootcamp are always very supportive and available. If you are curious, creative and want to know how to code and create new stuff, do not think, just go ahead. I think that it was an incredible experience. The worst aspect of this bootcamp that I think LeWagon could improve is the connection between the students and the companies at the end of the bootcamp (but it is something not related with the Munich, it is something in general). At LeWagon you are able to learn something for life. But you should be prepared that you will need to search for a job in an autonomous way.

I have done both Web development and Data science and I had the best times there. After my first training, I found a job immediately and worked as Software engineer for 2 years and then wanted to have more data knowledge and therefore did my second training... Read More there. I had amazing times, and got to know many people as they have a great community and the best part is that you have the chance to work as teaching assistant and work some days helping the new students which I continued besides my main job. I recommend this school to everyone who wants to learn programming

It was truly amazing. I was impressed by the well-thought-through and structured curriculum where everything was in the right place. After university education, where you often encounter low motivation and low engagement by professors, Le Wagon was the... Read More exact opposite where every office member, teacher, and TA really helped to create a high energy and motivation learning environment. The general vibe was “doing Le Wagon was the best decision of my life”. I also highly admired the way "Le Wagon" made coding accessible for everyone. I would have never believed how accessible the topic can be with the right approach. After the boot camp I am convinced that everyone can learn about Web Development with some motivation and time. Le Wagon made the first step not only less scary, but also quite fun and interesting.
