"Delivered 100%"

I was part of the very first cohort at LEARN. Let me just say that while the curriculum and teaching staff was top of the line that was not what made the difference for me. It was the sense of camaraderie that came from the way the courses team you up... Read More

"What are you waiting for?"

It is true that you can learn coding or web development online, however why would you want to do it alone? Some people do well learning on their own, but I am a true believer that learning in a team environment is the way to go. PLUS you then have a network... Read More

"Best decision of my life"

Really got me focused in pursuing a career in programming. Usually would get distracted with work and other things. Set a great foundation and a great environment to learn. Also a great way to get into the tech community. Everyone was so helpful and welcoming... Read More

"Excellent program for motivated self-starters."

After trying to teach myself to code for over a year, I knew I needed an extra boost to turn my hobby into a career. LEARN Academy was the boost I needed.

Disclaimer, this program is very difficult, you cannot expect to just go through the motions and... Read More

At the bootcamp, I gained a lot of technical skills, especially when it comes to Rails. However, I honestly don't think technical skills are the most valuable thing you get from a bootcamp. The most valuable things I gained from the bootcamp were: a better overall perspective of what it meant to be a programmer/how to think like a programmer, problem solving skills, working in a team environment (paired programming and group project), being in an environment with other motivated, aspiring developers, and the connections you make through the internship/being part of the community.

At LEARN they really focus on making it a family environment. The entire staff is incredibly supportive of you and your career and makes the effort to stay in touch, even long after your cohort has graduated.

Overall, I highly recommend LEARN to those who are motivated, self-starters.

A year ago, I was a wedding planner. Today, I am a software engineer at a Fortune 50 company.

I’m now six months in to my job, and loving every second of it. I can’t believe I get to do something so fun as a job, and that I get so well paid for it. Going to LEARN catapulted me into this new career, and I will be forever grateful. Not to mention, I made some incredible friendships with the other students and staff which go far deeper than just working together in tech.

Go to LEARN. Gain an education. Leave with a family.

"Attending LEARN! Academy changed my life, I wouldn't trade the experience for anything. The material was presented in a clear and concise way for me to learn and understand in a way I had not been able to on my own."

I deliberated over which bootcamp to take for over 6 months. After having scoured the internet, researching bootcamps from all over the country I finally decided to checkout LEARN! in person. They were the only school that outright invited me to come... Read More

"The collective mind here is vast, insightful, and generous—I wouldn’t trade the opportunity I had at LEARN for anything."

In my quest for a new career, what mattered to me the most in my journey consisted of two things: the resources and the people.

People: LEARN genuinely cares about you. I felt like I always had an entourage of people I could ask for assistance in anything: programming questions, networking, job-hunting, general well-being, etc. What I find amazing is, I know for a fact I’m not the only one who feels/felt this way. Changing careers is not easy. The LEARN staff knows it’s not easy, and boy are they good at helping you have all the tools you need to make that change happen. Along the way, I’ve made great friends, found mentors, had a wonderful experience I can always draw from, and became apart of a community that is downright cool. The collective mind here is vast, insightful, and generous—I wouldn’t trade the opportunity I had at LEARN for anything.

Did that new career happen for me? It most certainly did. Thanks to LEARN, a month after finishing my internship, I found myself at LoanHero, a fin-tech startup making the waves, as a software developer!
