    Fantastic Experience

    I signed up for the Software Development boot camp at the age of 42 to try to make a career transition. We started as an in-person cohort at BCA in Burlington in early February, then had to transition to remote learning about 6 weeks in due to the coronavirus distancing rules imposed by Vermont and other states. From the start, the experience was intense, very organized, and defined by the commitment of the BCA staff to our success. The TAs were available throughout the day, and instruct...

    Confidence boosting intro course

    The intro course I took at BCA gave me confidence, as well as hard skills in software development with JS. If it wasn't for this course, I can say for sure that I would not be where I am today.
    BCA is a very welcoming place, and they do a great job at getting a wide 'variety' of students. Having many different type of people from different backgrounds that all had a passion to learn development in JS was very beneficial to my own learning. There was a sort of feeding off each other th...

    A new career in 8 months

    It was about this time last year when I first heard about the Burlington Code Academy (BCA). After making the decision to leave an industry and career that wasn’t for me, I signed up for the part time class that BCA offers. I then continued on to take the web dev bootcamp, that following summer. And to cut to the chase, I graduated from BCA’s program in late August 2019 and landed a full time salaried position at a local web development agency less than a month later. A job I w...

    Tons of practice at all stages

    I think with this program, you really get what you put into it. This bootcamp gives you the tools to learn more about whatever you want on your own, get a job as a junior developer, or do some freelance work. 

    The thing I liked most about BCA was their focus on projects. Every week you work either in a team of two or on your own to create an app or program. In the beginning, you're just creating command line apps, but eventually you make web apps that run in browsers. This makes ...

    Fantastic Class Sizes

    Burlington Code Academy has a wonderful student-to-teacher (and teaching assistant) ratio.  I never felt like I was lost in a sea of information - there was always someone right there to offer support.  Their career counseling program was way more than I expected and defiantly a reason to choose BCA over other coding bootcamps.

    Upright Education Bootcamp

    Before I started the Upright Education(formerly Burlington Code Academy) Software Development Bootcamp, I knew nothing about coding. Honestly, I wouldn’t have said I was good at using computers in general. I had a few close friends suggest I might be a good engineer and that I should look into it. I was ready for a career change and enrolled with Upright Education in February 2022. It was a totally new world that I stepped into but the material was exciting and every ...

    The instructors and TAs here are very understanding and actually genuinely want to help you succeed when they see you struggling. Even though I was in a cohort of 10 other students I still felt like I was getting good individual attention for both my projects and job assistance.

    Great Experience, Great People

    I was one of the lucky few who got to attend the 7th installment of the Full Time Web Development course this past summer and the experience was amazing overall. The instructor and TAs are very knowledgeable and always willing to help (at a reasonable time of course) with any and all questions you may end up having about the course work. The course is definitely designed to be challenging but I never felt there was too much work for the time allotted for any given project, you just have ...

    Highly Recommend

    When I first became unemployed I started taking free online HTML/CSS courses and quickly found I wanted more structure and challenge. In comes Burlington Code Academy.  While this course is aimed towards people with experience ranging from none to some, I am glad that I had somewhat of a knowledge base going into it. It helped build upon and refine a coder's mindset with weekly assignments, labs, and lectures. Being a person who learns best through hands on projects, this course pushed u...

    Full-Stack Software Development

    This Bootcamp was awesome!! The instructor and the assistants were all very helpful in the learning process and I feel the pace of the course was sufficient. If I had to change anything it would be my final coding project. Reason being, the final solution for the project did not involve any relevant areas learned throughout the course. i.e. React, or any backend frameworks(MongoDB, express, node.js). Was kind of hoping to be able to create a full-stack application, but instead we watched...

    Software Development

    Let me first begin this review with a huge round of applause for the entire BCA staff and Bob Stauss, the main Software Development instructor. The amount of effort they put into the course and the support provided is evident from the very beginning. Anyone who is interested in a bootcamp that will teach them the fundamentals of web development and to a lesser degree software engineering should check out Burlington Code Academy. More importantly, BCA teaches you how to consume technical ...
