Additionally, students experience the rigor and intensity of the bootcamp, strengthening their cognitive processing stamina, resiliency, and other behavioral skills necessary for a bootcamp.

Faqs

You've Got Questions We've Got Answers

  • What is a Full Stack?

    A Full Stack is made up of the front-end, the back-end, and the database. The front-end is what you see when you go onto the internet: the colors, the buttons, the content, etc. Each full stack uses different tools, frameworks, and technologies. So when we say we teach a "full-stack", we mean we will teach you the language as well as the associated front and back-end tools you'll need to create your own application start to finish.

  • Why Python?

    Python is one of the most in-demand programming languages in the industry. It is favored by companies. Python’s diversity, adaptability and its elegant, easy-to-master basics set it apart from other programming languages, making it popular for use in web development, machine learning, data science, scientific computation, and cloud infrastructure.

  • Is this REALLY beginner-friendly?

    Yes! We don’t have a coding challenge or technical assessment to enroll because we know that we can teach you no matter where you begin. Our Programming Basics course was specifically designed to make sure all students are successful no matter where they’re starting from.

  • What if I don’t get a job?

    Hey we get it, a career change is scary, and a bootcamp is a big investment. But that's why we invest so much into our students! Here's a couple ways we support you...

    • Our career services start day 1 of your bootcamp, not after graduation, so you're as prepared as possible for the job search.

    • Our career services don't expire after 6 months - in fact they are available to you for life! So we'll be right there, no matter how long it takes.

    • We have an alumni network of over 13k+ global alumni that you can reach out to as well.

  • How many people are going to be in my class? If I have a question will the instructor be able to answer?

    Class size varies, but you will always be able to access instruction. Our instructors always have office hours, and are only teaching 1 or 2 classes at a time to make sure they can answer your questions. We also have TAs available every single day!

  • I can’t pay during the program; what are my options to defer payment?

    Schedule a call with Admissions to discuss the right financing options for you.

  • What happens if it’s too difficult for me and I have to drop out?

    If you find yourself struggling, reach out to both your instructor and the student support team. Together, we will do our absolute best to keep you on track and feeling confident about the material.

  • I don’t have any experience but I really want to get into coding, how can I know for sure this is for me?

    Take a look at our algo app, and attend our free Intro to Web Development class! There are also some great youtube videos out there. It's definitely a good idea to do some research to make sure you enjoy it!

Thank you!
