Overall i am very happy with the course that was provided by Code Institute, the course itself while very challenging was well and logically set up. Every part built upon the previous part, a lot of challenges to finish, which helped you understand the material even better. All the support surrounding the course, from mentor support to student support by the CI team was really great and helped to better understand and learn the complicated parts as well as solve any issues i had during my projects. As an extra bonus which really made a difference is the career team who helps you after your course by coming up with a plan to move forward, help to review your CV and Linkedin, they were really awesome. There is room for improvement though, i think there was too much focus on support by other students via slack, where it sometimes felt like friends answered friends but not everyone received the same support, that of course meant that i was not active there but still managed to succesfully finish the course and switch my career. Another thing was that it felt like the course material was a bit out of date, i.e a lot of focus on Jquery while that is not really that useful out in the job market anymore. Still, with the few improvements that could be made, this course was awesome, it teaches a lot in a short time, it teaches how to learn (which is really important if you start learning different languages), so i would recommend this to anyone interested in learning coding. |
