I was a student at Codeworks between January and April 2021 at the Berlin Campus. I took the full 12-week Software Engineering course. I would highly recommend Codeworks to anybody who is interested in becoming a Developer. I signed up for the course as I was looking to start a career as a Developer and was impressed by the reviews I saw online. I can honestly say that it really did live up to what I was hoping for. 6 weeks after the course finished, I had multiple job offers from different companies in Berlin for Developer roles. I am now working as a Full Stack Developer with a great company and a great salary. The course is very fast paced and you definitely need to get yourself a bit of experience with coding and a general idea of what being a Developer entails. It is 12 hours a day for 6 days a week so you have to accept that you will not have any sort of social life for 3 months. You also very much get out of it what you put in, so you need to really concentrate and push yourself to learn new things very quickly. Some pros and cons of Codeworks... Pros: - The campus in Berlin is really nice with great facilities - The team in Berlin and the wider company are super friendly and helpful - The content and tech stack is very relevant in regards to what company and employers are using - Once you finish, you receive lifetime career support and guidance which is really helpful Cons: - It is expensive - The lectures are not given face-to-face, they are pre-recorded videos with Q&A sessions afterwards I would say that the pros definitely outweigh the cons, and if you are serious about becoming a Developer then it is a really great option. It's probably one of the smartest things I have ever done! |
