Anonymous Having a great time at Northcoders - everybody, students and tutors are all lovely and helpful - and there's a great, productive atmosphere. There's plenty of socials so you can get to know everyone. The curriculum is pretty up-to-date as far as I'm aware, and they're always updating it. Work comes in two-day sprints, where you're randomly paired with another person from your cohort and complete small projects to learn new tech on-the-job. The amount of knowledge I've gained over the past months is incredible, I'd never have been able to get to this point by myself without the direction of the programme and support from tutors and peers. My only criticism (if you can call it that) is because of the curriculum changes so fast, every so often a cohort is the first to do something, and so they're effectively 'guineapigs' for new sprints, so not everything goes to plan - they haven't yet worked out exactly where students usually trip up or get a bit confused. But I haven't yet come across a sprint that by the end of it, I haven't learned anything. Really recommend this programme.
