Career Services

Prepare for a New Career

This course was designed to prepare you for the real world. Each week, you’ll tackle interview-style questions and weekly exercises as you learn new topics, so that you are building the skills needed to land a new job as you learn the topics themselves.

The Data Science program offered by Coding Dojo is rigorous but very rewarding and so worth the time and money spent! I joined with no background in coding and no understanding of what a Data Scientist does. The curriculum is in-depth, clear, concise, and fun to work around. During the course, you have to complete tasks by the end of the week like reading, assignments, projects, and exams. At times you will feel stuck but there are many code walk-throughs, videos, and solutions that will help you out. Plus the people at Coding Dojo like your instructor, the ta's, and classmates are more than willing to help you out.

Nikitha RamchanderCoding Dojo Alumni

I completed both a full-stack Python and Data Science PT bootcamp with Coding Dojo. Can't say enough great things about the school, it's online curriculum platform and relevance to current industry standards. I was fortunate to have both Michael and Noelle as my main instructors through both platforms, and cannot say enough about their patient teaching methods.

David NickCoding Dojo Alumni

Coding Dojo's style was perfect for me. Short explanations, decent code examples and then tons of immediate practice followed by a solution on completion of an assignment so you can immediately gauge how well you grasped the material and what you needed to review.

Application Process

How to Enroll

At Coding Dojo, we truly believe that anyone can learn to code, regardless of their professional background. After teaching 6000+ students, we have found that determination is the #1 factor to student success - NOT coding experience. That’s why our admissions process does not include a coding challenge or technical assessment.
