Wild Code School is a 5-month, European training program teaching in-demand digital skills through a blended learning approach. Wild Code School was created to train digital professionals to adapt to the changing work environment. The teaching style uses a combination of e-learning, in-class training, and hands-on projects where students master agile project management methods and other collaborative tools. Students are taught web development languages and application frameworks that vary from program to program. For example: PHP/Symfony, JavaScript, AngularJS, Vue.js, React or Java and Android.

Wild Code School is open to everyone, regardless of previous academic achievements and prior computer skills. Individuals interested in joining the program must first complete a series of exercises on the school’s online platform, Odyssey. These exercises are meant to give applicants a better idea about what the job of web development entails. Once the exercises are completed, applicants will be invited onto the campus where they will discover the school's teaching approach over drinks and food. They will be able to ask questions to the staff as well as current students. The final step is an interview.

To help ensure job placement for their students, Wild Code School provides customized support. Students will be able to interview with partner companies, get HR advice, and partake in job “dating sessions.” 87% of Wild Code School graduates are employed one year after graduation.

    Recommend this school.

    Highly recommend WCS. I was able to learn different skills (soft and technical) and at the end finally got a job.
    The curriculum is complete and will give you plenty of ideas to improve companies work methods.

    Web Development

    It was a complete course, appropriate for anyone starting and that gave a good preparation to keep progressing in the area. Its main focus is JavaScript, but it opens doors for more specific areas, such as Database Management, API built and others.

    Nice bootcamp for Data Analyst

    It was a very nice experience to study with Wild Code School Lisbon campus. Our course was hybrid, meaning some students were on site, some were joining remotely (myself participated remotely). The teacher (Cristina Zapullo) managed this situation very well, regularly checked-in for remote students to be updated about their progress, challenges, etc. 
    Campus manager (Nuno Bento) was also very available and he was supportive in finding solutions for any issue may arised.

    Web Dev bootcamp in Lisbon - do not pay for this!

    I was a student at WCS and didnt like it at all!!
    Its a waste of time and money in my opinion (IMO).

    The best thing i took from this experience was that (a) i wont ever again pay to study (unless my employer requires it), and (b) i dont like how the standard IT companies work, but even that you can search and find on the web - just like it is!

    With 4000-5000 euros you can do WAYYYYY more than what you will get after your bootcamp at WCS, IMO. For instance, you could take...

    Miguel,
    I'm sorry to read that you didn't get the best out of your experience at Wild Code School. 
    I have the impression that your comment doesn't really represent what Wild Code School does. A huge majority of our students are very happy with their training and managed to change their career and lives. The whole team is working hard for it.
    You preferred to be independent during your training, to seek your own resources, and to follow your own rhythm. It's fine to make that choice for you, but that doesn't mean everyone else does the same.
    I wish you the best in your career.

    A life changing experience

    Starting the on-site data analyst in Brussels in march 2020 we spent one week on-site after being obliged to learn from home.  
    The teacher and campus manager created a real link between learners by setting some recurring events.
    The courses are based on different projects and you will learn everything you need to take your project to an end.
    You we learn to use python and SQL and different data visualization tools (powerBI, tableau)

    Best life-changing decision

    Amazing atmosphere, very good teachers and a very nice community. It was a life-changing decision to study at this institute. I went from a two-year job frustration to doing what I love for the rest of my life. We prepared projects for real clients, theyhelped me prepare my CV and my Linkedin professional profile, and they also collaborate with the students in the search for job opportunities. I already delivered 5 freelance frontend developer jobs just 5 months after graduating and I’m ...

    A life changing journey

    Before the Wild Code School, I used to make showcase and e-commerce websites with WordPress. It was not really hard but also not very challenging as it required no particular skills in web development.

    One day a client requested a quotation for a complex web application. I could not accept the gig because that was something I wasn't capable of. I realized I was missing out on great opportunities and needed to learn and improve my hard skills.

    Then I discovered the Wild Code...

    Top BootCamp

    My experience at the Wild Code School was very exciting. The training program is intense but we have a lot of tools available like the platform Odyssey. The trainer and Campus Manager are available  at the slightest sign of problems, also the community is big you are never alone and they are a good mutual aid with the others students. if you're a looking for a new challenge in the Web developement Wild Code School is one of the best options.

    Great course

    Many quests to do for learning  new concepts. In depth explications with live coding course. Masterclass with an external speaker nearly every week. And peers programming to help in flexibility. Many projects all along to practice in real situations. Specific teachers for technical and job support
    Need to be autonomous in many aspects.
