Changing careers is not easy and it would have been very hard if it wasn't for CareerFoundry's course. I did the Certified UX course and it actually took me forever to finish because of my job (12 months instead of 10) so it was great that they gave me a 2-month extension for free. The course is well structured and the platform is very easy to use. I'll suggest for you to talk to your mentor ...

Nowadays I love to talk all about how much I love coding. But, it wasn’t always like that.

We often overestimate our ability to learn, and on the other side, teachers overestimate their students’ capacity to pay attention. This so called ‘burnout’ is the cancer of learning. It’s lurking quietly in the classroom, and no one knows when, and if it comes. And when it does materialize, everyone ignores it, denies it. I know burnout alright. I dropped out of college 15 years ago because ...

There is a lot to say about Coding Dojo, especially since I wasn't sure how legit a 'boot camp' would turn out and what 'employers' might think of it.

It is almost the cheapest school and with some scholarships, I was able to attend for about $10,999 ...

It’s been said that software development is both an art and a science. It’s an art because it takes skill, patience, and repeated practice to master. And just like art, software development has the potential to produce works of beauty.
