I started my web development journey back in 2018 and have been learning on and off since then. Still, when I saw Nucamp back in July, I saw an opportunity to have a more solid foundation while learning for the career I want alongside a community of people looking for the same career move as me. Since then, I have accomplished more than I ever have before, thanks to my classmates and instructors.- LaurenDec 04, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Great Instructors
I am a total beginner in this coding journey that I am taking, but it is so far great. I have met a great instructor who was very helpful and motivated to me do better. I hope by the end of this bootcamp, I will be able to code on my own with confidence! - MyrissaNov 29, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A

Best bang for the buck!
I chose Nucamp because of it's bootcamp offerings, affordability, and good reviews. Though this is my first module in the Front End Development Bootcamp, I had a blast learning and collaborating with my instructor and classmates. During Week 4, my instructor had an issue and was not available for us Week 4 and Week 5 (the last two weeks of the 1st module), but overall I thoroughly enjoyed the coursework and module.

During Week 4, my instructor had an issue and was not available for us Week 4 and Week 5 (the last two weeks of the 1st module), but overall I thoroughly enjoyed the coursework and module. As of right now, I was considering upgrading from the Front End Web Development to Nucamps Full Stack Web Development. The only reason I have not already upgraded is my experience with week 4 and Week 5 of my current module. With the instructor being out, Week 4 was not graded and I am not sure about Week 5. Other than this little hiccup, I highly recommend Nucamp to any interested individuals, new/old/self-taught. - Jas MorrellStudent • Back End, SQL, and DevOps with Python • OnlineNov 24, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A

After much speculation and reviewing all sorts of options, courses, camps and packages, I chose Nucamp and am really happy I did. I've never done a proper camp before so I don't know what exactly to compare it to honestly, but I can say that I was surprised and excited by the structure and guidance in getting you set up and walking you through the materials every week.

I've never done a proper camp before so I don't know what exactly to compare it to honestly, but I can say that I was surprised and excited by the structure and guidance in getting you set up and walking you through the materials every week.
There is a good amount of encouraging you to do a bunch of outside resource education and research (not required but a strong suggestion), which at first I was feeling lazy about and just wanted it all laid out for me in the lectures and material (that's what I paid for!), but then I remembered that's not how the tech world operates in real life and you have to do A LOT of self learning and research at any coding job, so really they're trying to train you at every step of the way to prepare you for having an actual role in a tech job, which I appreciate. Most jobs out there say they want competent self starters, and that begins at the foundation of your learning journey.
Highly recommend. It's affordable compared to most camps out there offering the same thing, and in conjunction with other programming courses and free material online it's the perfect tool in your kit to get you right for your future. That said, I should say something I learned is that no singular bootcamp or course is going to be your everything and one and only. Just like you don't go to college and take one crash course and expect a job immediately after, each additional skill you add is going to help you overall and you have to build. The problem is most of us have no clue where to even start, and that's where bootcamps come into play. It's invaluable. I personally know for a fact I would not be nearly as far in my learning path if I didn't do this- I've been trying for over a year to exclusively self-teach, you can only get so far without outside help, feedback and the know-how of what exactly you should be doing. Bootcamps ARE worth it, and this one is damn good. - TMinhasStudent • Back End, SQL, and DevOps with Python • OnlineNov 22, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
I'm really learning!
I compared a few online bootcamps and Nucamp genuinely had the best price by far. I was very new to the idea of coding and working with a class but it was very enjoyable. My instructor, Michael, really made sure we knew the course material and was very encouraging. Definitely recommend! - EdStudent • Back End, SQL, and DevOps with Python • OnlineNov 22, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A

Great place to start
nucamp is very well priced in the bootcamp arena. At the same time their instructors are very credible in the industry and have a passion for teaching, along with the patience needed for aspiring developers. The first segment provided much of the context that I've struggled to find on my own. Feel much more prepared to start on ML use cases soon. - PawanBack End, SQL, and DevOps with Python • Hybrid (Online & In-person)Nov 21, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A

The course starts with basic concepts and progresses through more advanced topics, interesting code challenges, quizzes, algorithms and portfolio project. I am particularly very satisfied about the weekly workshops. My primary instructor, Anthony Fenner, was great at explaining different concepts and patiently walked us through the algorithms. Instructors are knowledgeable, helpful and supportive. I had some experience of programming for procedural tasks and data analysis. My instructor really helped me to understand important concepts like OOP and automation. Nucamp harbors and emphasizes intelligent and efficient programming practices that really boosted my confidence as a programmer. - Carlos PenarandaStudentNov 10, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
web developing fundamentals
This class runs you through basic html, css, javascrip. is extremely help full if you have never done it before. - Angel BenitezNov 09, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Web development fundamentals
I was trying different ways to learn fundamental concepts for web development. I tried different sources like freecodecamp, codecademy, edx, udemy. Eventhough they were good resources, I always felt that there was something missing. This course filled that gap. My instructor was great and explained everything to the detail. The group was also very engaging and it was a fun way to learn these concepts.
