		I decided on Codeup because it's less of a time and financial commitment than getting a traditional degree, but you still get the benefit of in-person instruction and 1-on-1 help that you don't get using online tutorials. I completed the part time front-end bootcamp in July of 2015. While my experience in the part-time course probably differs greatly from the full-time course, the main pro was that the course focuses on professional skills, teaching new technologies and languages that are popular and in-demand. It's invaluable to interact with people working in the field to learn best practices, tricks and expectations once you are out working on your own. However, a major con is that it's a lot of learning condensed into a very short amount of time, and there's a lot of pressure on the individual to keep pace. The "syllabus" has a schedule of "however long it takes to cover this topic," and I found that many in my class moved at very different paces. Another con is, because of the condensed timeframe, there's not a lot of time to practice each thing you learn. It's very much up to the individual how far into each topic they want to/are able to go. High levels of personal motivation and the willingness to persevere are a must.
