I was looking for an affordable coding bootcamp and Nucamp did not disappoint! Not only is it affordable, but I feel like I've learned so much to help me on my journey into a new career field!- IanStudent • Full Stack Web and Mobile Application Development • OnlineJan 13, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Fullstack and Mobile Development Course
I selected Nucamp because it was the most affordable bootcamp I could find and it also got good reviews. - Daniel LiGraduateJan 12, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Very worth the money
It was affordable and all the courses in the curriculum were exactly what I wanted to learn. After finishing the fullstack bootcamp I'd say that it was a good experience. Nucamp puts a lot of emphasis on completing personal projects which is very important when applying for jobs with no degree, and also I believe it's one of the best ways to learn the subject. - Erick BaltazarJan 05, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Good Course
This a very easy going course. I felt very comfortable in the pace we were going I definitely would recommend this to anyone that wants to get into coding for the first time. - ChrisEJan 05, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Full Stack Web Developer
I chose to enroll in Nucamp because of all the positive reviews. I looked at other bootcamps but the price and what you get for it won me over. I love how it is 100% online and I love the community that you become a part of. This has so far been one of the best experiences for me and I would recommend this to anyone who is just learning or anyone who already has some skills in coding. This bootcamp helps all! - Neal PimentelStudent • HoustonJan 03, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Best bang for buck!
Pretty solid bootcamp on the fundamentals course which I had taken. Honestly the best bang for buck value out of any other bootcamp out there. You get the structure, peer/mentor review, access to the materials/lectures forever and an entire community who is willing to help. - Daniel ClassonIT Systems AdministratorDec 29, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
SQL Course
My experience with Nucamp so far has been excellent. The instructors are great and the content is awesome. It is a lot of information to take in but the community is always available if you need help or want to review what you have learned. - MariaDec 29, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

Four Stars
Nucamp is flexible and works for my learning style. The only two things I don't like are:
1) Some instructors are better than others.
2) The videos can be very dry and the voice over is not great..
I recommend suplementing this course with Angela Yu on Udemy (full stack web development) and go on Career Karma (an app) to talk to people in the industry if your instructor is unavailable.

Web Fundamentals Course (4 weeks)
I started by learning how to code on my own but was having difficulty setting up my own structured path to becoming a developer. I searched many different boot camps but what ultimately led me to choose Nucamp was their affordability. I think their prices are very reasonable. I took their Web Fundamentals course to start off. I think they can improve their instructional videos by giving clearer examples of the material you are learning and by having someone one who is more energetic and ...I started by learning how to code on my own but was having difficulty setting up my own structured path to becoming a developer. I searched many different boot camps but what ultimately led me to choose Nucamp was their affordability. I think their prices are very reasonable. I took their Web Fundamentals course to start off. I think they can improve their instructional videos by giving clearer examples of the material you are learning and by having someone one who is more energetic and less monotone narrate the course. You study throughout the week and meet virtually on Saturdays for about 4 hours with your actual instructor. I found the Saturday classes to be too short and the instructor seemed rushed to get through the course review. If they can instead take the classes to 6 hours I think that would help. They do provide plenty of external resources to help you find information including Slack which connects you with people who can help with any questions you have. One last thing was that their course felt way too fast paced but that may just have been me and also their Web Fundamentals course is only 1 month long. I think it would be better for the student if it was at least 2 months long (ideally 3 months). Overall I did enjoy the course and as long as you put in the effort everyday and commit to at least 3-4 hours of studying per day I think you should be fine. It's worth it. I will be taking their backend course next January 2022.
