My Experience at Le Wagon
After finishing college with a Computer Science Degree, I worked for a year as a QA tester while
doing personal projects.
I decided to join Le Wagon to learn what it is to be a Web Developer and to move my career forward. Throughout the Bootcamp, I learned everything from the backend to the frontend. The last 3 weeks were the best part of the Bootcamp. In a team of 4, we had to build 2 amazing full-stack applications.

The last 3 weeks were the best part of the Bootcamp. In a team of 4, we had to build 2 amazing full-stack applications. One would be an Airbnb clone and the other is to connect waiters and restaurant owners. At the end of it all, we had to present it on stage, in Infront of many people. All in all, it was a great experience and I would definitely recommend it to anyone curious about Web Development.

To sum up my experience at LeWagon: Fostering, ambitious, and transformative. leWagon is in the business of fostering new growth to succeed. LeWagon’s teaching structure is designed around incremental lessons and tests, with the support of excellent mentors and teachers to help you thrive. As a theatre producer entering into the world of tech, I never once felt out of place at LeWagon. The program sets an ambitious pace, starting from scratch and ending with two full scale projects in a team after just nine weeks. Choosing LeWagon was one of the greatest choices I could make, and I am coming out of it a different person. I am transformed not through losing my other skills and abilities in my previous work experience, but accumulating more skills that prepare me for the future.- Janaya GripperGraduate • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • MontrealVerified by GitHubApr 14, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
The Le Wagon Community is invaluable.
On the surface, Le Wagon and the other bootcamps may appear to be the same (except Le Wagon was shorter and less expensive than others, but in the end that wasn’t even the main reason I joined).

I went through the interview process for Le Wagon and another bootcamp at the exact same time and Le Wagon felt notably different from the start. I felt like I was treated more like a student than just a paying client. Joining Le Wagon and getting to know the staff and teachers only validated that I had chosen a good community with interesting people and teachers who were truly interested in me.
You probably already know that bootcamps can be intense and stressful. As expected, we learned a ton in a short period of time and worked on numerous individual challenges, as well as two large group projects. We covered wide range of topics (obviously, it’s full stack) and gained a lot of experience - building apps, working with peers of different skill levels, designing, debugging - while having lots of fun along the way. But Le Wagon wraps all of those expected benefits up with engaging, interesting, and friendly people who care. And then that is built on a large alumni base and an international presence. For me the community factor makes all the difference. - AlexanderGraduate • Data Science & AI Bootcamp - Full-time • AmsterdamVerified by LinkedInApr 13, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Fantastic, even for experienced programmers
I signed up with Le Wagon after teaching myself to code for just over a year and working out that Data Science was where I wanted to go. I chose Le Wagon because it was the best in-person, Data Science course I could find in Amsterdam and the surrounding area that also had support for the job hunt afterwards.

I chose Le Wagon because it was the best in-person, Data Science course I could find in Amsterdam and the surrounding area that also had support for the job hunt afterwards. As a self-taught I arrived at the course already knowing much of the material and primarily looking to round off any sharp edges on my skills and take advantage of the job-market assistance and alumni network. I was not disappointed. Their lesson structure allows for a great range of student ability. Even coming into the course knowing 70% of the material I was still challenged every day! The teachers and students alike were great to be with and I remain in touch with many of them. Would absolutely recommend, even if you already have some of the course material under your belt. I would advise doing AS MUCH PREP WORK FOR THE COURSE YOU POSSIBLY CAN. But that’s just my approach. Best of luck with everything! - AfonsoStudent • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • LisbonVerified by GitHubApr 13, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

Le Wagon Montréal Review

From the fast-paced learning environment, well-structured course, great campus, amazing teachers, ta's, and staff plus all of my colleagues that accompanied me through this journey, I can't say anything but high praise for the experience.
Looking back I'm still sometimes in disbelief about how much I was able to take in and learn in such a short amount of time and how prepared I feel to take the first steps into the tech industry after coming from a completely different area.
For anyone looking for a Web Development Bootcamp, if you are in Lisbon, don't miss out on Le Wagon! - Corentin PeyresblanquesGraduate • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • BrusselsVerified by LinkedInApr 12, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Simply the best
Simply the best place if you want to learn to code!
I went there knowing almost nothing about code (coming from a financial background) and today I'm fully able to build a tech product.
It only took 9 (intense) weeks, supported by the best staff and buddies, to go from learning the basics to building a fully functionnal tech product.
And if you don't belive me, just check our final project : http://thefoxtail.me

They have a real passion for sharing their experience and expertise. Moreover, having access to the “Le Wagon global community” beyond the bootcamp is a fantastic resource for networking and meeting interesting new people that entered the tech world coming from untraditional backgrounds across cities. One of the highlights for me was demo day, where we got to present our final team project, put together in less than 2 weeks. - Laura You-Li ChenStudent • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • MontrealVerified by LinkedInApr 07, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Amazing Journey
Before the bootcamp, I was lost in my future path. I didn't really know what I wanted to do but I did know that I love coding. It's easy to learn coding online nowadays however there's not a lot of structure learning on your own, I didn't know where to start.

Go for it!
Le Wagon bootcamp was extremely helpful to gain strong fundamentals on software engineering. The key of its success is how it is structured, all the topics are broken-down and ordered in a perfect fashion that allows the student to be fully capable of following the lessons and do not get "too frustrated".
For me, a non-coder, it has been the perfect bridge to the software engineering world. I feel very fortunate to have had the opportunity to join it and I will strongly recommend ...Le Wagon bootcamp was extremely helpful to gain strong fundamentals on software engineering.
