"Transfomative"
As a healthcare professional of 17 yrs, I'm striving to make a transition into tech.
I'd like layer tech on my years of clinical skills and immerse myself in all things front-end and ux.
Skillcrush, is user friendly, and the education is really laid out... Read More

"Great Breakdown of Information for Those New to Coding!"
As a newbie to coding, I was nervous and skeptical that I could learn HTML and CSS. I am currently into my second week of the Front End Developer Blueprint and LOVE it!! I am older, so I think it takes me longer to grasp new information...And there is... Read More

"Effective bootcamp for upskilling!"
I was an IT professional for over 25 years stuck in a dinosaur technology looking to broaden my skill set to the 21st century. After many attempts, I decided no one will give that opportunity at my previous employer so I threw caution to the wind and... Read More
Since I don't have a job, I was able to sign up for the course at a discounted price. This is a great incentive and my wallet appreciates it! I am a programmer so I do have the propensity for coding and I really enjoy the HTML and CSS classes. But what I am impressed about is the class structure and the overall course content. Some reviews mention that this information is free online, available at low-cost from sites like Udemy or not enough to up your game. They are not the audience to which this program caters. These courses and blueprints are for those who want to break in to this career or career changers like myself to learn what is needed at the sequence that makes sense to get started in the industry with great success. This is what I believe Skillcrush provides.
The cost, content, access forever and cheat sheets are a huge plus for me. I looked at many bootcamps, both online and not and they are a huge investment or out of town. This is very reasonable to start out without feeling the pressure of "spending all that money so I better find a job soon". I can catch up if I'm behind or learn ahead if the classes are available. I have posed questions both in private and via GoogleGroups and some responses took a day, others within minutes. I did have a problem with quizzes displaying for almost an entire week. At first I thought I was just too early for the class but when I switched browsers from Mozilla to Chrome, they displayed without incident.
I'm thinking like a Web Designer now and I'm only halfway through the course! Thank you Skillcrush, I'm crushing the crisis out of midlife! :)

I wasn't sure about whether or not I should sign up for a Blueprint with Skillcrush. I had taken online classes before that didn't seem to translate into anything in regards to a better career direction, confidence in my coding abilities, etc. After sending... Read More

"WONDERFUL! Excellent course that is well paced for all learning styles!"
I am loving my Skillcrush Blueprint (Front End Web Dev)! It takes HTML and CSS and breaks both down into basic topics so all my knowledge become building blocks in a surprisingly short amount of time. What I love is that each lesson has a straightforward... Read More

"Perfect for newbies!"
I am a few weeks into the Front End Developer Blueprint. I knew absolutely nothing about coding before taking this course. I can't remember how I stumbled upon it, probably social media. I decided to take it because I have been stuck in a career rut since... Read More
My one constructive criticism would be that it would be nice if there was a way for students to know immediately if their code is correct or not after typing it in the code editor window. Some hints would be great as well if the code is incorrect. We can post our work in the Google Groups, but waiting for feedback from someone and sifting through all the replies from other students is a bit time consuming.
