The course was intense and fast paced, which suited me well. Be prepared and make sure you make space to give it your undivided attention for the full duration.
Following graduation, I was very pleased to discover that Le Wagon has a high class reputation in the industry and it's certainly helped with applying to jobs. I am also now connected to their huge community of alumni on slack that regularly spits out freelancing opportunities and useful insights into the industry.
Highly recommend it for anyone looking to be accelerated into the tech industry. - Julia MathiasElixir Developer • Graduate • Web Development Bootcamp - Part-time • Rio de JaneiroVerified by LinkedInJul 07, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Changed my life
Before doing Le Wagon, I was in a slump. Professionally, emotionally, mentally, things were not going well for me. I had tried to learn coding on my own, with very mediocre results. Sure I could follow tutorials online but I couldn't build a full-blown web application that would land me a job. The process of learning on my own was also very frustrating. I would often get stuck, to the point where I wondered if coding was even for me.

The process of learning on my own was also very frustrating. I would often get stuck, to the point where I wondered if coding was even for me.
During the bootcamp, it was completely different. Their teaching methodology is amazing! I progressed so fast and now every time I got stuck on something, I had a teacher by my side to guide me to the answer. The teaching staff is amazing and would help me even after their work hours were over.
In 6 months not only had I built 2 web apps with amazing classmates but also gained so much confidence in my ability to code and learn new concepts, which was invaluable to me. One month after I started looking for a job, I got hired! Making 2,5x my previous salary.
Le Wagon taught me to code professionally, opening up so many new opportunities but more than that, it also gave me my self-confidence back. ❤️ - Bernardo NevesStudent • Web Development Bootcamp - Part-time • Rio de JaneiroVerified by LinkedInJul 05, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Amazing experience!!
I did the bootcamp in 2020 in and it is really worth it! The materials offered have an amazing quality, the teachers are also amazing! The same time is really demanding, it is also really grateful to build a functional web app in the end. It is amazing to learn so much in a short amount of time in a light and didatic way. I recommend it to anyone who wants to learn how to code! - Damien BussonData Scientist • Student • Data Science & AI Bootcamp - Full-time • LyonVerified by LinkedInJul 05, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

I chose to attend Le Wagon coding bootcamp to better understand the tech environment I work in. Being able to speak with Product and Developers teams is a key skill for a start up CMO. Going further in User Experience, Growth marketing and Data-analysis is also very valuable as marketing is more and more about tech and data.
Le Wagon has been an incredible experience I would definitely recommend for everyone working or willing to work in a tech environment.

As a video game lover, I have always been very curious about technology and programming and knew that sooner or later I was going to make the big leap.
When I found out about Le Wagon I knew I had to do it. The experience was incredible and I not only learned a lot but also had a lot of fun during the process of learning how to code. After the 9 week program I’m overwhelmed by how much I have learned and I am eager to build on my newly acquired knowledge and keep learning. - Thibault FGraduate • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • ParisVerified by GitHubJun 29, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Internet was missing in my life
OK Internet was already part of my life. But not of my work. I used to work for a luxury company, selecting what would be in stores.
Our clients used WeChat, Instagram or e-shops all the time but my job was centered around brick-and-mortar experience. I could not see myself cornered with retail forever so I decided to join Le Wagon to learn some code.
"You have to trust us, everybody will succeed eventually" was the first sentence I heard from the teachers.

"You have to trust us, everybody will succeed eventually" was the first sentence I heard from the teachers.
While everybody's pace was different, no one was left behind and after 9 weeks we all could code.
It's amazing to see that I can now create a web app from a glorified TextEdit file.
Le Wagon taught me web development but spiked my curiosity. I can explore concepts like Machine Learning or Big Data and I feel confident enough to do sales for an Artificial Intelligence start-up. - Clotilde LacailleGraduate • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • ParisVerified by LinkedInJun 29, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
A really great experiment
I decided to do Le Wagon because I needed a change in my professional life, it is not easy to know what to do, in which sector and to find the right way to do it. With the Wagon I discovered the IT, it was a very intense 9 weeks but the teachers and staff are really nice and the atmosphere is very special. I met great people who I worked with every day and I really enjoyed spending time with them. It gave me a new vision of professional life, more colorful, more flexible.
