Even though the exercises were mildly challenging at times, the way the assignments were structured really helped facilliate independent thinking and experimenting.
I was originally looking to use this course as a refresher before moving into a larger, more well-known, more expensive bootcamp, but the way this course structure was fantastic and my instructor was exceedingly helpful. I will definitely be considering NuCamp courses in the future!
I did not utilize any sort of Job Assistance features/services during enrollment in the course. I did see that their Slack community was fairly involved in that regard.- AlyssaStudentJul 25, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
HTML, CSS, and JS Fundamentals
I just completed the HTML, CSS, and JavaScript Fundamentals course, which lasted 4 weeks. I would only recommend this course if you're just wanting to test whether this learning method is practical for you before financially commiting to the Front End/ Full Stack course. They just barely touch on the covered topics. They provide links to MDN and W3 Schools for supplemental reading on every topic. For HTML and CSS they didn't teach me anything I didn't learn from Free Code Camp, and didn'...I just completed the HTML, CSS, and JavaScript Fundamentals course, which lasted 4 weeks. I would only recommend this course if you're just wanting to test whether this learning method is practical for you before financially commiting to the Front End/ Full Stack course. They just barely touch on the covered topics. They provide links to MDN and W3 Schools for supplemental reading on every topic. For HTML and CSS they didn't teach me anything I didn't learn from Free Code Camp, and didn't cover it as well. In the last week, there was less material and there were far fewer coding challenges, replaced for code alongs where you download a file and then do exactly what the instructor in the video is doing. For JavaScript I spent a lot of time on other websites to supplement the learning material in order to give myself an understanding, and was still told I should spend 3-4 weeks continuing to expand my knowledge on JavaScript in order to be successful in the longer courses. I was already planning on that, but to be told that you still aren't ready for the full courses after you take the fundamentals course they recommend so that you DO have the required knowledge for those courses is not a good feeling.
As far as the experience, I enjoyed it. I liked that they provided links on every lesson for further reading. I liked that they had copepens for us to work on. It was nice having my instructor and classmates when I needed assistance, and that was always what kept me from advancing in the more self-guided courses. I liked that I didn't have to entirely quit my job for this, because that isn't realistic for most people. I liked having the workshops on the weekends with my classmates and instructor present. Overall, I enjoyed the learning experience and felt this was a good learning format for me so I signed up for one of the full courses.
If you're wanting to see if the way NuCamp does things is right for you before financially commiting to one of the longer courses, go ahead. If you have tried free or cheap self-guided intro courses and gotten stuck and would benefit from having an instructor and classmates to reach out to, sign up. If you can muddle through FreeCodeCamp or Udemy to get your basic understanding of HTML, CSS, and JS then I would do that, skip the fundamentals course, and just sign up for the longer course. - Carlos VargasGraduate • Web Development Fundamentals • OnlineJul 24, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Nucamp Intro class Review
I enrolled into nucamp because I wanted a new career path. I took the intro course and learned significantly. I think its a good choice for anyone who is interested in learning code. It teaches the basics and gets your feet wet to later lead into other courses or languages. - JennfierWeb Development Fundamentals • OnlineJul 23, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Web Development course
I enrolled in Nucamp to get an refresher on html, css, and javascript. I came into the course knowing quite a bit about html, and css. With very limited experience to Javascript. So far It has been a decent refresher on the first two. If I had come into Nucamp not knowing anything about html, css, or javascript I would be completely overwhelmed and still unsure how to use any of it. - Bethany StanleyJul 12, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Front End Bootcamp
I wanted to make a career change. I had dabbled in coding throughout my teenage years, but never thought I had what it took to be a programmer. However, after seeing how this career fit my personality, strengths, and goals for my life, Nucamp presented an opportunity to make that shift. I was being taught the most prevalent technologies of today that make me job ready. The instructors were keen to help and pass on their knowledge, both technical and career.

Nucamp was also what I could afford at the time, and I was even able to afford upgrading to the Fullstack course. I would recommend was people looking to transition to tech jobs. - AlexChicagoJul 11, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

Nucamp: Full Stack Bootcamp Review
Great course but you have to put in the extra work if you want to get the most out of it. Just following the instructions won't get you where you need to be to understand everything. - RonStudent • Full Stack Web and Mobile Application Development • OnlineJul 04, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Excellent Experience!
I decided to enroll in Nucamp because of their flexible schedule and payment plan. I have been thrilled with the quality of training I have received to this point. The instructors have taken time to help our class through the material and are always available to help with any questions or issues. I could not be happier with my decision to enroll in Nucamp! - LizDeveloper • Student • Full Stack Web and Mobile Application Development • OnlineJul 03, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Full Stack Bootcamp Review
I went with NuCamp largely due to the price and the reviews. Many bootcamps are inexpensive but the reviews show that even at a steeply discounted price they are not worth it. Thus far, NuCamp is more than worth the amount that I am paying. - Blyford NesbittStudentJun 24, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
New Start
i got into this course to learn a new career. Most of my experience had been in the hardware of digital systems. The research I had done, shown that most of the bootcamps ,
were at least four times that of Nucamp, The coursework was straightforward and useful. - souleymane koneStudent • San FranciscoJun 23, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A

What led to Nucamp was the advice of a friend who explained to me the way the course is setting up at Nucamp. Learning based on video teaching was the click that attracted me. In addition, I loved the workshop setting that brings students and instructors together where instructors go over what we learned during the week. It was a great decision for me to take these classes with Nucamp. - SheenaInsurance Adjuster • Student • Web Development Fundamentals • OnlineJun 21, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A

I chose this bootcamp after several unsuccessful attempts of self studying. I needed structure, accountability, and affordability and this provided that.
