Before starting the Boot-Camp, I knew close to nothing in this field. One week, two weeks pass by, and you really start learning a lot, and best of all, putting it into practice every day. The fact that there are teachers always there in case assistance is needed is a great help.
In general Really satisfied with the boot-camp.- William GrantGraduate • Web Development Bootcamp Online • OnlineVerified by GitHubMay 17, 2024Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Amazing experience
Le Wagon is a fantastic experience, getting the ability to learn hands on with real coding problems instead of just reading theory allows things to cement in your mind more, things seem slightly confusing at first until it all suddenly clicks and during the final weeks you learn how to put all the pieces together. The teachers are amazing, very kind and very helpful, I have absolutely nothing bad to say about any of them.

Very nice experience, I learned a lot
As an engineer, this was my first online bootcamp experience. It was truly enjoyable and enriching. I learned many new technologies and particularly loved the learning method that combined videos, exercises, and projects. I recommend this bootcamp 100%. - Go SuzukiGraduate • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • TokyoVerified by GitHubApr 23, 2024Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Best life decision
The bootcamp was without a doubt one of the hardest things I have ever done, but it was definitely one of the best decisions I made. The structured curriculum along with the daily challenges related to the topic of the day really helped reinforce my learning. I had so much fun, and am sad that the bootcamp has come to an end! The community, instructors, and my batchmates made it such a great experience, and they really pushed me to keep going even when things became tough.

The community, instructors, and my batchmates made it such a great experience, and they really pushed me to keep going even when things became tough. It really does come down to how much you put into it, but without Le Wagon, I definitely wouldn't have grown so much both as a person, and as a developer! Thank you Le Wagon Tokyo, I really loved it! Without a doubt, I would do it again!
Pros:
- Great instructors and TAs who are very supportive
- Was able to use the facility anytime to study before/ after class
- Gives you structure
Cons:
- Might be fast paced but thats for any bootcamp - George MartinSenior Data Engineer • Graduate • Data Science & AI Bootcamp - Part-time • LondonVerified by LinkedInApr 15, 2024Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Fantastic Bootcamp and Community!
I signed up for the Part Time Data Science and AI bootcamp at Le Wagon London not really knowing what to expect. I'm happy to say they have cultivated a really friendly and support environment. I particularly enjoyed the final month where we pitched a project idea, built a product and then demoed it to the rest of the cohort. It was a great experience to tie together all the skills acquired in the previous 5 months and build a working product with a team.
Thanks Le Wagon London! - Mathieu ArruGraduate • Data Science & AI Bootcamp Online • OnlineVerified by GitHubApr 11, 2024Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

Highly recommended for driven entrepreneurs (even to beginners in coding like me!)
My Reason for joining:
I love solving problems and I have this belief that technology can help scale good impact. Although I was a business person with almost no code knowledge, I wanted to co-found a tech start-up for a social cause I was passionate about and it took me a year to dabble on no-code and fumble on my own. I tried looking for tech-co-founders and found strong and potential ones but even after reading multiple articles and watching videos, I realized that I couldn't seem ...My Reason for joining:
I love solving problems and I have this belief that technology can help scale good impact. Although I was a business person with almost no code knowledge, I wanted to co-found a tech start-up for a social cause I was passionate about and it took me a year to dabble on no-code and fumble on my own. I tried looking for tech-co-founders and found strong and potential ones but even after reading multiple articles and watching videos, I realized that I couldn't seem to fully grasp their thinking, jargon, and their motivations, and although I have high respect for tech builders, I wasn't confident about how to work with them. After an initial eye-opening consultation about admissions, I decided to push and enroll.
Pros:- Worth the time, energy, and money
- Packed learning every session and while it felt like I had info overload several times, especially at the beginning, I felt all learnings coming to life during project weeks.
- I felt I missed quite a lot during a month-long travel to a different country which was 2 months before project weeks would start. So before the project weeks, I reviewed lessons again, dropped one commitment (work), and had to focus on this study to fully maximize the experience. I don't think people need to drop work and this is extremely possible to balance with Full-time work especially if you don't have other hats too (I'm a mom of a 2-year-old.)
- Very supportive community (Teachers, Teaching assistants, Large Local and Global Active Alumni network I can tap into.)
- Psychologically safe place to ask for help when learning during and after boot camp
- Creative energy is strong
- Unlike traditional learning environments, the focus is not on "winning" but rather on helping each other while focusing on personal growth. It felt like it was designed that way.
- I highly recommend watching a recording or attending a Demo Day. When I watched it in person before, I was impressed and I couldn't imagine myself being able to code a product but after a few months, I could and I did! (Of course, with the help of a team~)
- Project Week when taken seriously as if building your own MVP is a very strong hands-on experience to coding and working with a tech team
- I could have an idea of Product delivery and insights about how to go during stand-up meetings and tech project management, learn about possible pitfalls and what could motivate the team, and a good introduction or foundation of front-end, back-end, design-to-code knowledge.
- Pitching was a good experience to refine my idea with Teachers and to know the motivation of tech builders in the future.
- Possibility of being able to build my own MVP - I could and I am so grateful to my team for their patience and enthusiasm in building it with me.
- There is a chance to work together on a first project before the final project! Since I could not be the project manager for that, I could have the chance to learn as a team member fully focused on coding! But I could also observe my feelings, thoughts, and how I work which eventually was super helpful with leading and gluing the team together during the Final Project.
- There is a career week
- I could hear about Startup founders hiring and connect with them too to gather insights.
- Although the focus is on Job Hunting, there was a talk about start-ups and freelancing too. For founders, we could book a career consulting time to chat about Entrepreneurship.
- They offer free courses! I took it a year before just to check. It is a great beginner's experience just to test the waters or see if my brain capacity can handle it. haha. But honestly, the boot camp will be deeper and way more comprehensive.
Cons:- Might be difficult to balance time if you have many roles (Parenthood, Work, Business, Study) as you need to watch lectures ahead and are expected to do the challenges together during sessions.
- However, the buddy system during sessions is extremely helpful. And, basically, balancing all these while learning hard and smart is a good test or practice for grit and persistence. :)
- If part-time online, you may feel like you missed out if classmates hang out after class. So, I highly recommend going to campus if you can, especially on project weeks~!! And to fly and be in person on Project Demo Day!

Great experience!
Very good! I had a lot of fun. I had no other option but doing the part time online course, because I could not afford stopping working and I live too far away from a campus to do a live part time. So for me this was the best option. Even though it was online, I found friends which hopefully I will be able to keep in touch with. I wish I could have done it face to face, but again, it was not a possibility for me and I still enjoyed the course. The teachers were really good and helpful. ...Very good! I had a lot of fun.

My background is in Data Analytics, so I had some experience working with Data. But the Engineering part was new to me, and I learnt a lot. I also realize than more than the tools themselves I am able to understand the concepts and apply the logic to any work situation I am presented with. I could already see the difference while I was doing the bootcamp! - ZI JIEGraduate • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • SingaporeVerified by GitHubApr 06, 2024Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

fun of learning
Can recommend to everybody that is a career changer!
One of my favorite teachers, is super encouraging. Her explanations are easy to follow and she explains the lecture and the topics freely.
Teaching stuff enriches the explanation with vast background knowledge.
Teachers show the fun they have doing ML or math or explaining it.
Thank you I learned a lot, but it is tough!
And my course is online, this is not here

Is Le Wagon Tokyo Worth IT?
I think the answer to my question is a resounding yes. The course was completely worth it. It would've taken me a year or more to self-learn what we covered in 9 weeks. The teachers were not only knowledgeable, but they were also great mentors. They were able to point me in the right direction whenever I got stuck. I also got access to an amazing community. I feel confident that I will be able to transition into a tech role very soon with the knowledge I gained at the boot camp. If you'r...I think the answer to my question is a resounding yes.

I feel confident that I will be able to transition into a tech role very soon with the knowledge I gained at the boot camp. If you're a Japanese resident, I highly suggest looking into the Hello Work subsidy because it'll cover more than 60% of the tuition and is available to anyone who qualifies. - Ahmed BouguachaGraduate • Web Development Bootcamp - Part-time Online • OnlineVerified by GitHubApr 03, 2024Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

It was a great 6-month experience, full of challenges, ups and downs, problems and solutions, a lot of learning and an overwhelming sense of community!
