I chose Nucamp as a great low cost way to learn coding at my own pace. I wanted to get into coding, but had no idea how. Others suggested doing free coding lessons online, but for me if I pay for something I would have to hold myself accountable for what I am learning. Also with free online programs you don't get the live face to face/ webcam interaction with an instructor who can answer your questions and help you navigate what you are learning in real time. I have a hectic schedule so ...I chose Nucamp as a great low cost way to learn coding at my own pace. I wanted to get into coding, but had no idea how.

Web Development Fundamentals
I just finished up the Web Dev Fundamentals course and this is my review of that curriculum: First, this course is not meant to make you job-ready Web Developer and they even tell you that in their Open House videos on Youtube. This is mainly to get your proverbial feet wet in reading, writing, and applying code, as well as, to see if this is something you actually enjoy doing. I signed up for this course when the COVID-19 pandemic hit, so the workshops were all done through zoom, online...I just finished up the Web Dev Fundamentals course and this is my review of that curriculum: First, this course is not meant to make you job-ready Web Developer and they even tell you that in their Open House videos on Youtube. This is mainly to get your proverbial feet wet in reading, writing, and applying code, as well as, to see if this is something you actually enjoy doing. I signed up for this course when the COVID-19 pandemic hit, so the workshops were all done through zoom, online. For $349, you'll have access to their gazillion slack channels, knowledgeable instructors, and other people from your community, even people from other communities! One of the main reasons I chose NuCamp: Budget. I don't have the resources or the funds to be able to afford the other bootcamps I was also interested in. Location: I have my own family and I can't simply have them uproot to move to a different state, just so I can attend a bootcamp. Community: Not only would I get the chance to meet other people who were in the same boat, but because we're in the same state, we could potentially meetup at a local spot to code together in person, outside of the classroom. You can learn everything in this curriculum by yourself for free, but it never hurt anybody to have access to a community and staff on hand to make sure you're learning properly. Before finishing this course, I'd already signed up for the full stack because I'm interested in learning more about the front-end as well as the back-end. This course will prepare you for what's to come, whether it's the front-end web design or the full-stack. - Jose MoyaJun 14, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
HTML, CSS and JavaScript course
A great course especially for the price! The instructor was very helpful and made sure you understood the curriculum. - Jay ThomasStudent • Full Stack Web and Mobile Application Development • OnlineJun 13, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Bootstrap
I have just completed my first class with Nucamp. The class was a bootstrap class. I liked the way the class is set up to work on tasks yourself during the week and then having the live class on Saturday mornings. I work full-time so even though more live class time would be awesome, it just wouldn't work for me. So the way Nucamp is set up works very well. It was nice to break up into groups in the live class and work on a few tasks together as a team. Everyone wants to help each other,...I have just completed my first class with Nucamp.

I can't wait to start the next class and get started learning React. The price of Nucamp compared to other Bootcamps is what made my decision to join Nucamp very easy. So far, I'm glad I made that decision. - ChadStudent • CharlotteJun 13, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Great for busy schedule
I chose Nucamp for the flexible schedule, affordability, and positive reviews. I wasn't disappointed. The course work was laid out in a way that allowed me to keep up with it throughout the week, even with my busy work schedule. There were times where I felt a little overwhelmed but was able to run questions by my instructor and collaborate with my fellow students. I'm looking forward the full stack course. - John ReillyManaging Director • Los AngelesJun 13, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
HTML, CSS & JS 4 week Bootcamp!
From the time I decided to jump in and do this -- having no programming experience whatsoever - I thought what a great challenge. NuCamp and its great people including my fellow students made it happen. I have never been so motivated by a learning program that was extremely challenging but amazingly rewarding at every step. I have signed up for the full stack developer program as a result. - Chris VStudent • Web Development Fundamentals • SpokaneJun 13, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Student review
Nucamp is an affordable option to other coding schools or classes offered at more traditional institutions.
The Fundamentals course is laid out well and the learning modules are easy to follow.
They offer a built in community to help with the process of learning and it's well structured.
It's a great choice for anyone as long as their motivated to learn. - SusieJun 13, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Great school Awesome instructors
I picked Nucamp because they understand that attending an in person class isn't feasible for everyone. The small groups of students per instructor was a big factor as well. I highly recommend anyone that’s interested in web development to check out NuCamp. - J GrahamGraduate • Web Development Fundamentals • OnlineJun 13, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Great Investment
I chose Nucamp because of the affordable price and the flexible learning environment. After the four week fundamentals class I'm glad that I did! The material is provided in a format that allows students to go at their own pace and get in as much extra practice as they need. While I was nervous about the Saturday workshops, I really enjoyed getting to know my other classmates and my instructor and working through assignments together. - Grace SessionsGraduate • Web Development Fundamentals • OnlineJun 13, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Awesome course!!!
It was easy to follow. The exercises really helped answer any questions I might've had before hand. My instructor was awesome! - ABRAHAM TUCKERStudent • BaltimoreJun 13, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

It was a wonderful experience and I am still catching up. I like the instructor way of teaching and how patient he was. Nucamp is a wonderful school with great instructors - Vlad MaicaneanuStudent • Web Development Fundamentals • WashingtonJun 13, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Bootcamps worth taking
The small class sizes and instructors facilitated easy group work to problem solve the same issues together. Also having access to slack and other resources where groups of people could come together to answer any questions you might have and help you along was monumentally useful, more so than something like stack overflow could ever hope to give.
