LearningFuze

One of the best things that came out of year 2020, that I will eternally be grateful for was taking the bold step of joining a coding boot camp, not just any coding boot camp but LearningFuze. It is an experience that I can only describe as the right... Read More mix of studious learning in an empathetic environment with a community committed to seeing you achieve your goals. I live on the other side of the world and not once was I left it out in any interaction, even though I was the only girl in my cohort. Let’s start with what LearningFuze is and is not. It’s not a place for hand-holding and cuddling. You’ve got to put in the work. If you’re looking for a place to grow with people who treat you like a human being because they understand just how tough the process can be on you, then, LearningFuze is the right place for you. It will not allow you live by copying and pasting other people’s work or have answers handed to you in every situation. You do learn by doing but you’re also giving practice challenges that test your abilities to problem solve and to keep learning within and outside the classroom, giving you the necessary nudge out of your comfort zone. The job search is very similar to the in-class training. You will be armed with skills and prepared for the job search but you still have to apply to the jobs and go through the interviews as you’ll come to realize that you’re in competition with quite a number of software developers too. The best part, all the learnings and skill training are things you need in the real world and remain relevant even after landing a job. However, with LearningFuze even the instructors can be a shoulder to cry on, ever positive, ever encouraging, they go above the call of duty as it is with all the LearningFuze staff I have encountered. All in all, if you’re asking for my recommendation for a boot camp, I’ll definitely recommend LearningFuze. It’s not for the faint-hearted but it will help you achieve your goals.

Their curriculum teaches you in a way that not only teaches you core fundamentals, but also teaches you how to read, understand,... Read More and implement code on your own. After having gone through the program I am happy to be able to confidently call myself a full-stack dev. Would recommend it to anyone who is looking to learn how to code!

The full immersion bootcamp at LearningFuze is a fantastic option for people who want to start a career in web development. The course is fast-paced and challenging, but if you work hard and apply yourself, your coding skills will develop quickly. My... Read More instructors were very knowledgeable and passionate about coding. They always approached class with an enthusiastic attitude, and it was evident that they wanted to see their students succeed. LearningFuze also offers in-depth career services with an incredible staff that help you prepare for interviews, create a well-rounded portfolio, polish your LinkedIn page, and much more. Overall, I had an amazing experience at LearningFuze, and I still can't believe just how much I've learned over the past few months. I would definitely recommend the program to anyone interested in becoming a web developer.

I want to start off by saying that all of the staff at LearningFuze is amazing. Something I really liked about LearningFuze from the very beginning was that they offer many resources even before the start of the program. I first attended their info session... Read More to learn more and was encouraged to sign up for the 2-week prep course (both free). The 2 week-prep course really gave me an insight into how the program would be structured and after its completion, there was no doubt in my mind about attending the full-time web development course. The instructors Cody and Tim were always incredibly helpful and made the learning process even more fun. In addition, LearningFuze really helps you prepare for the job market through mock interviews and resume building.

Learning Fuze is very thorough in their curriculum, they provide you with all the tools you will need to be a Full Stack Web Developer. The instructors are there to help you every step of the way and there are provided TA's after hours to help out! Learning... Read More Fuze has taught me not only the syntax and concepts of JavaScript, but also how to think like a programmer - problem solving for solutions. Towards the end of the cohort, the staff at LFZ help out tremendously to prepare you to be job ready. They help you build a resume and then put you through mock interviews to prepare you for the job market. I would recommend Learning Fuze to anyone that is interested in a programming career in general.

After a few months of the self taught route, I decided I was ready to jump into a full stack immersive program, and found LearningFuze. I was not disappointed. They really care about each and every student that goes through the program. Coming off a traditional... Read More education in university, I never felt that I had a voice or any type of one on one connection with my instructors. At LearningFuze, you really get that one on one time when you are struggling through a new topic. From the Jr. side instructors to senior side and the career services team, you are mentored along the entire way, and given the right tools to be successful in the future. I couldn't have asked for a better group of mentors, without them I wouldn't be where I'm at now. Truly an amazing program, creating some great programmers.

This review has been a very long time coming. Before I enrolled, I went to info sessions for three other popular bootcamps in the area. The staff at LearningFuze was what made me come back to try out their free prep class, and then ultimately enroll in... Read More the full-time immersion program. I never worried whether I would have access to an instructor for help. In fact, they reminded us over and over all throughout the program to ask as many questions as possible because it was going to be a LOT of new information all at once. I always felt supported, and that support carried into the career services part of the program as well. My only regret was that I didn't fully take advantage of what was available to me after the program ended, but even though I never finished my requirement, about 6 months after graduation, the director and career services manager reached out to me for a check-in and provided me with an opportunity to get back on track. (I was really struggling to stay focused during the first half of 2020.) And honestly, that made all the difference. I highly, highly recommend if you're looking for an environment where the instructors and staff actually care about their students, but you also need to put in the work! As for the curriculum, I think that it's changed a bit since I've been there, so I do feel they try to stay up to date with relevant technologies while also making sure you know fundamentals.

After about a year and a half of self study, I decided to take the dive and try and apply to a bootcamp to jumpstart my career into the world of web development. I researched for days on end to find a school, both local to my area and even out of state,... Read More that I felt would take a genuine interest in helping me grow as an individual and guide me on the path to a new career. Although my time in the accelerated web development program was incredibly challenging, I have no doubt that I made the correct decision in choosing LearningFuze. The instructors are heavily invested in your development and are always available for questions and clarification on the topics we cover, and TA's are available after class hours, if you need of any sort of additional help. They also provide a lot of information and tips to prepare you for the job search , and even after you complete the program, you don't feel like you are on your own, as the instructors and staff are always willing to help you out. If you put in the work, LearningFuze has all of the resources to help you succeed and attain your goals! 

Going into the LFZ bootcamp I had very little knowledge in the world of coding. I had previously finished the HTML/CSS courses at FreeCodeCamp.org and had started the JavaScript course when I decided to pivot my career and commit to going to a bootcamp.... Read More The things that enticed me about LFZ were the incredibly helpful staff, the price, and the hours. I needed something that wasn't 6 days a week 10+hrs a day of in class work. I have a wife and kids, and I couldn't be that distant for 14 weeks. While I did end up working about 10+hrs a day, it was only 5 days a week and 8 of those hours were mandatory, the rest was on me. Here are some more pros of LFZ: 1. The staff is AMAZING! Not once did I ever feel like I was being judged, looked down upon, or my ability to do this was in question. Every single staff member is there to help you, support you, and push you to grow! If you have questions, they have answers. 2. Leaving the cohort I feel 100% capable of working in this industry. I still have a lot of work to do, they can't teach you everything in 14 weeks. That being said, the most important thing they teach you, is how to teach yourself. 3. Career Services. Again, the staff here is PHENOMENAL! I wasn't sure what life was going to be like after the cohort ended. I thought I would be on my own and get some info here and there from the school for suggested job applications or some help for a couple days going over resumes, cover letters, interview questions. I was wrong. They've been there EVERY step of the way. I'm in contact with them almost every day, we meet once a week to go over job prep, and they help provide contacts to people in the industry. I finished the cohort on January 15th 2020. A month later they're still pushing and trying to help me find my first job. I am incredibly thankful I attended this school. If I had to make the choice again, I wouldn't change a thing.

I decided to sign with LearningFuze about two years ago. I planned on their Full Immersion course and planned for the right time to start. When the opportunity came, I signed up and I could not be happier. Outside of the great instructors and the well... Read More designed curriculum, I also was able to kick my motivation into gear again. I had become comfortable in my job and this is was definitely the change that I needed. I would highly recommend LearningFuze.
