Actualize

In my opinion, the best part of Actualize Bootcamp is the curriculum. Coming out of the bootcamp, I feel extremely confident in my skills in both Rails and React. In addition to these two primary frameworks, Actualize also teaches you skills like Git,... Read More SQL, Postgresql, and how to continue learning post bootcamp. Overall, I would highly recommend this bootcamp to anyone who is looking to start their web development career.

The program at Actualize is so supportive. That was most important for me, there's always someone to talk to and coach you along. The instructors and counselors are really invested in your success not only as a student but a graduate as well! Highly recommend!... Read More

Great course. Very informative. Lots of hands-on practice. Lots of support once you graduate to help you find your first job. The course went over more than what was presented on the website which was nice. The curriculum is current to what is going on... Read More in tech and makes sure everyone is prepared to graduate. The instructor was super helpful and worked patiently with everyone in the cohort. The class size is small so everyone gets help and doesn't get lost in the crowd. The curriculum adds on as the week progresses until the final end when you make your capstone.

This course is not easy. It has 5 weeks of pre-work, plus the actual course work. It's fast paced and won't slow down for you. However, it is a very supportive environment, one which doesn't require any prior knowledge of coding. If you are interested... Read More in coding as a job, and have the discipline to actually commit to the full time frame, I would say it is an excellent way to decide if you have the temperament to code as job. It also helps that the instructors are teachers, and not just coders, and thus have experience in how to create curriculum and how to teach students. I will say the curriculum is constantly evolving, so you may encounter things which feel unrefined, but much of the experience was extremely smooth and felt well thought out. If you can succeed in this fast paced environment, I'd say you're well suited to coding in general. It's a good course, has good instructors, and felt collaborative the whole time.

The Actualize coding bootcamp was really a great experience. There's a great balance between exposing you to new concepts without being overwhelming and giving you time to practice what you've learned. The instructor I had was phenomenal - very personable... Read More with tons of coding and teaching experience. The effort put into lesson and activity design was apparent from the get go.

I heard about this bootcamp from someone who had completed the course and said that it was great. I did some research and it had a better reputation than most of the other bootcamps I had looked at. I was impressed that it focused heavily on interaction... Read More and feedback between students and the small class sizes with two T.A.s. When I read one review about how they hire teachers, teach them to code, and use them as instructors I knew it was the right choice. I have to say it was intimidating during pre-work and the bootcamp itself was very challenging at times. The resources, group discussions, and office hours in addition to one-on-one help really made the learning process a positive experience. It is a bootcamp so it isn't easy but the amount of information that I learned was well worth the time and money.

I can't recommend this bootcamp enough. Excellent instructors, satisfying work, and it's a lot of fun. You receive ongoing support after the course ends, as well, which is a big help to the job search. If you're on the fence, just jump in, I'm so happy...

I actually chose Actualize after coming to this website. There were countless 5-star reviews! So many, I didn't believe it so I decided to go further by asking former students on LinkedIn about their experience. To my surprise, the reviews were the same... Read More and they all recommended it. I'm so glad I listened to them and decided to enroll. Before this course, I had no prior experience with coding. I now have the confidence to say I feel like I can learn any language, framework, etc. I would highly recommend this boot camp to anyone interested in learning to code.

I had an awesome experience with Actualize. Everything went extremely well, from the application process to the class itself to everything they do for you after graduating. Amanda is an awesome instructor. She explains things so well and always helps... Read More reassure everyone of their progress. Going into this class, I had a small amount of coding knowledge from years prior, but I had no confidence that I would be able to learn all the skills on my own to be able to find a job in software development. After finishing the course, I have no regrets and would recommend Actualize to anyone. The way the course is set up is a great way to learn web development. Seriously, taking this course is one of the best decisions I've made.

They understand the difference in how adults learn. The course will challenge you and push you to learn while giving you the flexibility to do it in ways that interest you. They also understand how to build comradery between online students, which makes... Read More a huge difference in learning from each other.
