Coming from a world quite far from tech and its environment but having always had a passion for computers and digital, after 15 years spent as a salesman in the construction industry, I finally took the step! After a lot of reflection and discussions with people in the field, the best solution to move forward was to train in order to obtain new skills and become credible on the job market. In this search for solutions adapted to my environment, my professional life and my private life, La Capsule Academy seemed to me the best compromise between the timing of the training (10 weeks) and the technical qualities required by most employers (Fullstack javascript). The full JavaScript curriculum, which is the most requested programming language at the moment, allows you to code both the frontend and the backend, a double competence of project manager appreciated by all. The whole thing is enhanced by one of the most famous frameworks in the devs' world: React / React Native for its mobile version. The experience of my 10 weeks at La Capsule lived up to my expectations. The La Capsule team took care of me from the beginning to the end of my course, the Teachers and TAs were present and benevolent whenever the need arose. I saw my learning curve advance from week to week until the end of batch project. The Project Based Learning system (10 technical projects to be completed in 10 weeks) is a major asset of this training by consolidating the knowledge acquired with each new iteration. As well as the Buddy system which allows us to work in teams and to help each other if a concept has not been assimilated. Today I am certainly a junior but no less autonomous on the design of my applications, which allows me to design by myself the prototypes (MVP) of my ideas and to integrate various APIs, databases, visuals, etc. and all that in only 10 weeks! This training also allows me to understand the tech world in a different way and to discuss with people native to this field without problems. The bootcamp format is quite intensive and requires a lot of work and personal involvement (400 hours of work in 10 weeks and 50 hours of preparation before the training), so it may not be for everyone. But if you have the motivation and the desire to change your life very quickly and efficiently, then go for it because the training is well worth the investment. |
