Ezra CampbellStudent • Web Development Fundamentals • OnlineOct 31, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/AHelpful Introduction, WORTH IT
So far, I have completed the Web Development Fundamentals course by Nucamp, which covers basic HTML, CSS, and then an introduction to JavaScript. It's just 4 weeks and spends roughly the first 2 weeks on HTML/CSS and the second 2 weeks on JavaScript. I plan on continuing to take their series of courses for the full software engineering bootcamp path experience (Dev Fundamentals, Back-end, Full-stack, and a Job Hunting course).

It's just 4 weeks and spends roughly the first 2 weeks on HTML/CSS and the second 2 weeks on JavaScript. I plan on continuing to take their series of courses for the full software engineering bootcamp path experience (Dev Fundamentals, Back-end, Full-stack, and a Job Hunting course). I felt that it was a great structure for an intro development bootcamp/course, with videos, exercises, challenges, Slack engagement, and an instructor you can contact during the week and who teaches the class over Zoom for 4 hours every Saturday during the course. It allows great schedule flexibility especially if you're working during the week. I felt a good combination of flexibility, while still having structure and having actual live instruction. It is actually around the same price to do the full bootcamp (4 courses in a row I listed, about $5400 if you pay as you go for all of them together) as it is to do a similar full-stack web development course I had previously considered - that does not have live instruction. The live instruction is invaluable to me so I went with Nucamp and so far I'm glad I did! My instructor for Fundamentals, Madeline Ward, was great. She made the material interesting and engaged with students on a human level. While you could absolutely teach yourself these topics with free materials on the Internet, that goes for any bootcamp or paid course in web development, but you should seriously consider Nucamp if you need a less-expensive-than-most bootcamp with guided instruction for accountability.- Amir GaffarStudent • New York CityOct 31, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Great learning experience with a flexible schedule!
I enrolled in Nucamp to learn and better my coding skills. This was the best decision because it was affordable and the learning experience was great! After the bootcamp, I aspire to continue learning to code and use these skills to start a career. - Kaylee WilesStudent • Full Stack Web and Mobile Application Development • NashvilleOct 17, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

When I was researching bootcamps, I narrowed down my search by focusing on the three items that were most important to me:
1. Cost: was it affordable for me without going into a huge amount of debt
2. Curriculum: were the technologies being offered conducive to my career goals; were they up-to-date and would they make me more marketable in the end
3. Community Reviews: what are other people saying about the bootcamp, curriculum, instructors, their overall experience and expected outcome
Once I decided on what was most important to me, I narrowed my selection down to three bootcamps. I then referred back to my list of the three important questions above, compared my findings and made my decision.
I decided to enroll into the Complete Software Engineering Bootcamp Path offered by Nucamp. The first of four segments is Web Development Fundamentals: HTML, CSS JavaScript.
Pros: The Nucamp staff is extremely helpful, professional and timely in their responses. There are several different scholarships offered and the process to apply is rather simplistic. The weekly lessons are clear and concise, and are led by a professional in the industry.
Cons: There is minimal instructor interaction during the week. Students must be ready and willing to work independently and rely heavily on supplemental resources, all of which are provided within each of the lesson tutorials.
Overall:
The tuition costs are extremely competitive, especially in relation to the amount of content contained and offered within the curriculum. The Nucamp community seem to really enjoy their experience, are content with the new skills they have learned, and are happy with the outcome they achieved.
While all bootcamps are going to have some negatives reviews, this particular bootcamp seems to be viewed in a positive light by the majority. I agree with the majority and look forward to the next segment of my bootcamp path.
Note: I am marked the job assistance as "not applicable". This is simply because I haven't reached that point in my program. However, there is a four-week segment at the end end of the program that is designed specifically to this topic. Once I complete this final segment, I will update my review accordingly. - Randall GarciaStudent • Web Development Fundamentals • OnlineSep 26, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Great program for busy work/life schedule!
Nucamp has been a great introduction back into the world of coding after 10 years. I took some coding classes in college many moons ago, and have not coded in about 10 years. So I started with Web Development Fundamentals to get back into it. I think that was the right choice, and I think that Nucamp was the right choice for me. The structure of the program works well with my busy work/life schedule, and makes it very manageable with the expected time dedication and the course content.

So I started with Web Development Fundamentals to get back into it. I think that was the right choice, and I think that Nucamp was the right choice for me. The structure of the program works well with my busy work/life schedule, and makes it very manageable with the expected time dedication and the course content. The instructor for my course was very helpful and knowledgeable, and the weekly content was broken up into very digestible chunks throughout the week. I hope to continue my success in this program as I continue into the Back End program and then onward to the Full Stack, and hope to be among the many to land a Software Engineering position after completion.
I highly recommend Nucamp for anyone that has a full schedule like myself. Or anyone for that matter, since I feel that anyone can do this and succeed with how they structure their program. Very well done Nucamp. - Kathy M.Student • Web Development Fundamentals • OnlineSep 25, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A

I enrolled in Nucamp because I wanted to seek out a new career path, and Nucamp was the most affordable and available option I found while searching the web.

Looking for an affordable and flexible bootcamp led me to Nucamp. I was inspired by the instructor and my fellow peers in the group for their grit, perseverance, and creativity. With students being at different levels, we were paired well together to support one another with hands-on workshops. The coding challenges throughout the weekly content was engaging and helpful for practicing what we learn. I would high recommend this bootcamp, and this model of learning to friends and families....Looking for an affordable and flexible bootcamp led me to Nucamp.
