I wasn't prepared for the Advanced Python course. I hadn't been doing that much programming in the couple of months that led up to it. I hadn't seen a side project of any decent size to completion. But I stuck with Rmotr and I gained more than I could have asked for.Ben D.

It is an excellent course. It might not be the alternative to tech degree, but it can serve you right if you don’t have one. Well, I have no degree and going spending four years to get a degree is not a convenient choice for me. I decided to go for just getting the skills and then land some job. And, I think lambdaschool was no brainer for me. It felt easy at the beginning and as the course ...Sara Patrick

Before joining the coded bootcamp my coding skills were..... Lacking. Today, I feel more confident as I am aware of the main tips for trouble-shooting and problem solving when something goes wrong. The bootcamp is a great starting point, it offered a diverse quality content, a great hands on and interactive student experience. At the end, we had the chance to apply our learning on our project. ...Dareen

CodeRemote was an interesting experience for me.

When I started looking for a bootcamp to attend I had already been searching for a job in software development for 12 weeks.

I have been working in the same field over 16 years and I was in a well paid career but reached a point where it wasn't challenging me intellectually.

I recently graduated from RocketU (cohort Summer 2014). I came in with limited coding experience and it was definitely a very challenging first few weeks. I was very stressed out but luckily, the awesome staff (especially Mimi) at RocketU were so supportive and understanding. They gave me the push that I really needed to keep going and I'm so glad I was not afraid to reach out to them either! ...Tiffani Truong
