All around an amazing class. Highly recommend taking it and taking full advantage of your resources, including the tutor access, hosted events, and network. Practicum's long-form, flexible class structure allows for a work-class-life balance unheard of in most other bootcamps, in person or remote. PROS: - Wide variety of topics in the course I took (I took the part-time web development course) - Uses up-to-date techniques, technology, and best practices - Remote, full-time or part-time classes offered - Tutors, advisors, and other support are easy to reach, accessible, extremely helpful and kind - they WANT to help the students - Community managers work with students to help them as much as possible in the event of unusual life circumstances, unexpected events, etc. The Practicum staff wants the students to succeed instead of "weeding them out", which has been continually amazing - Course work is VERY challenging and engaging, and continually changes and builds upon the same foundation. Great for spaced repetition! - Courses are structured around a few major projects the students develop over many weeks or even months, so when these projects are done, a TON of stuff was learned and used - Plenty of opportunities to join community events hosted by the staff - Good amount of career advice and assistance with getting hired CONS: - More 1 on 1 or small group time with an instructor and/or tutor would have been very helpful - Rather frequent class interactive platform bugs, connection issues, or certain quizzes being too picky with answers (though, the creators ARE receptive to suggestions for improvement!) - Lecture-style live teaching only occurred once every 2 weeks or so, and sessions were typically short. More active and live time with instructors would give it a much higher quality educational experience
