The learning curriculum covers all essentials to gain a holistic view for web development, from front-end, back-end, tools, platforms, a bit of product development. I transformed from a non-coder to a coder --- which all thanks to this intensive 12 weeks. I love the setting of live lecture - challenges - live code mechanism. The challenges everyday were well selected and relevant to the course. It helps me learn and apply for what I learnt. The lecturers and TAs(teacher assistants) were really helpful as well. Project weeks were the highlight where I got the chance to work on real projects and make an application functional, but these were also the most intense weeks as well. At the end of the bootcamp, we got one extra week for career, where we can update our CV, LinkedIn, Github pages and get ourselves job search ready. Overall I am very satisfied with it. One concern I have to the curriculum is that we didn't learn enough javascript which is the most popular language at the job market right now.- Jonathan BurdisGraduate • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • LondonVerified by GitHubOct 29, 2024Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Intensive but hugely rewarding
From the start, it's a very intensive learning environment, but it's completely worth it if you give the time and dedication. While probably possible to get everything done in the 9 am - to 6 pm course hours, I needed to assign a lot more time to properly understand the content. This was made easier by all lecture recordings being made available in advance so I could always watch one before the live lecture as preparation.

While probably possible to get everything done in the 9 am - to 6 pm course hours, I needed to assign a lot more time to properly understand the content. This was made easier by all lecture recordings being made available in advance so I could always watch one before the live lecture as preparation.
The project weeks give great insight into the process of developing an app from scratch (Web Dev BootCamp) from the idea conception to launch into production and valuable skills like code review and coding in a team.
The careers team are very helpful too, they have sessions throughout the BootCamp and also after you graduate. You also remain part of the LW slack channel and have contact with all of the shared channels to reach out to other alumni.
I secured a place on the government-funded BootCamp so didn't have to pay for it, I'm not sure if I would have fronted up the money at the start of the BootCamp (due to my financial situation) but it has the potential to be a valuable investment if you make the most of the resources made available to you over it's duration. - Anthony Chidi UgochukwuData Analyst • Graduate • Data Analytics Bootcamp • LondonVerified by LinkedInOct 29, 2024Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

Going into the bootcamp, I knew it would be intense, but the depth of learning, the supportive community, and the practical skills I gained exceeded my expectations. Course Content and Structure
The curriculum was well-organized and focused on building real-world skills. We started with the basics, like data structures and the fundamentals, then progressed to SQL, Python, Power BI and lots more. One of the highlights was the final project, where we worked in teams to work on different projects using real Data. It was amazing to see how much we could create after just a few weeks. Instructors and Support
The instructors were knowledgeable and genuinely invested in our success. They were always available to answer questions and provide guidance. I also appreciated the support from teaching assistants, who were patient and helpful, especially during late-night coding sessions. Learning Environment
Le Wagon creates an incredibly supportive and collaborative environment. Working alongside like-minded students was inspiring, and we quickly formed a close-knit community. Pair programming, daily challenges, and group projects were essential parts of the experience, helping me learn faster and build my confidence. Challenges and Growth
One of the biggest challenges was managing the fast pace and intensity. The course is highly immersive, and you’re expected to absorb a lot in a short time. But looking back, the struggle was worth it! I grew both technically and personally. I learned how to problem-solve, and handle complex coding tasks. Skills Gained
I came away from the bootcamp with solid skills in SQL, Python, Looker Studio and Power BI, along with a better understanding of how to work collaboratively in a tech setting. I feel prepared to tackle new challenges and continue growing in my career. Career Support and Outcomes
Le Wagon’s career support was a great asset. We had workshops on interview preparation, networking, and creating a standout resume. I also connected with alumni and mentors who gave valuable insights into the tech industry. The bootcamp has definitely opened doors for me, and I'm confident about my job prospects moving forward. Advice for Future Students
Be prepared to put in the work. The bootcamp is intense, so it’s essential to stay organized, keep up with daily coding challenges, and don’t hesitate to ask for help. If you're dedicated and willing to learn, Le Wagon can be a life-changing experience. Overall
I highly recommend Le Wagon for anyone serious about launching a career in tech. It’s an intensive program that requires dedication, but the skills and confidence you gain make it worth every moment. - Omar MiahGraduate • Data Analytics Bootcamp • LondonVerified by GitHubOct 28, 2024Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

Le Wagon helped me achieve a goal that I didnt 100% think I could accomplish. The bootcamp is very intense but following the structure and trusting the process, everything begins to fall into place.

Avec toutes les offres qui existent sur le marché c'est compliqué de s'y retrouver !
Alors pourquoi ?
Comme vous avant, j'ai cherché sur le web une formation sérieuse pour apprendre les bases de Data Science.
Une journée type au wagon
- Tous les matins nous avons un cours
- Exo tout le long de la journée où l'on peut demander de l'aide à un prof (j'insiste sur ce dernier point)
- le soir récap avec un live code
- petit bonus, en fin de bootcamp, il y a un projet à monter en équipe(ça c'était vraiment cool)
Mon expérience perso :
Je ne savais même pas ce qu'était Python avant de commencer !
Mon objectif était de monter en compétence grâce à la compréhension technique de l'IA et de la science des données (la partie mathématique).
Je viens de 19ans de commerce et de marketing et je voulais apprendre à automatiser mes recherches de data pour gagner en performance.
La formation est très intense et assez difficile, je ne le cache pas.
Si vous êtes du genre à être humble, à accepter de ne pas comprendre des fois, à demander de l'aide et si vous êtes bosseur alors cette formation est faite pour vous !
A la fin de ce bootcamp, je sais coder, je sais corriger mes problèmes et je sais monter un projet de A et Z en toute confiance et en parfaite autonomie.
Je ne cache pas que j'ai eu des moments de doutes mais j'ai continué à travailler et à demander de l'aide quotidiennement au prof.
J'insiste sur ce point car c'est vraiment le point fort de ce bootcamp.
D'ailleurs les profs sont très compétents, bienveillants et pédagogues. C'est totalement insane.
On n'est jamais seul, toujours une personne pour vous aider, vous accompagner à trouver la réponse.
Le service administratif est très présent pour vous soutenir tout du long de votre formation.
C'était un batch d'été 2024 en petit groupe de 7.
J'ai vécu une très très belle expérience.
J'espère que ma review permettra à d'autres de se lancer dans l'aventure et à prendre un ticket pour le prochain Wagon. - JP BreugemStudent • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • Cape TownVerified by GitHubSep 26, 2024Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A

Great fest-learning experience
Le Wagon Web Development program is incredibly fast and thorough at the same time. Great experience at Le Wagon Marseille, with experienced and practical teachers. The lectures are very straight-to-the-point which make them easy to follow and remember, the exercises are tough but well-built and teachers are always there to help.

Well-structured curriculum and great community
At first, I was skeptical of the choice of Ruby on Rails as the main language but now having graduated, I'm convinced it was the right decision. For those who are new to programming, this is the best direction you can start with. It might limit your opportunities, but if you are serious about finding a job in SWE then your portfolio should continue to be diversified post-bootcamp either way.

My only complaint with the curriculum was not including a lecture on testing and CI/CD tools (but there are still internal resources you can study after). - Eduardo Barion RibasStudent • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • Sao PauloVerified by GitHubSep 19, 2024Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

The bootcamp was only in 2 and a half months and was so much information that I couldn't belive that I would grasp it so quickly, but they made it happen. Overall, it was a rewarding and transformative experience that has boosted my confidence in web development and prepared me for future challenges in the tech world.
