Altcademy

I already knew some HTML and CSS from some free coding courses on Codecademy, but the depth of knowledge in web development from Altcademy is a complete game changer. I learned how to create responsive websites from scratch. Learned to build full stack... Read More MVC projects with Rails and React. Handle image upload and storage on AWS S3. Integrate stripe checkout for payments. I learned computer science algorithms for job interviews. Built a capstone project for my portfolio. I would recommend this course to anyone who wants to learn web development and want to change career. If you are just learning on your own without a mentor, and is struggling, really consider joining a program that includes mentoring such as this one.

I loved my time at Altcademy. The curriculum and teaching style is top-notch. The fact that I can learn completely online from the comfort of my home is a game changer. My mentor is patient, knowledgeable, and will custom schedule my exercises according... Read More to my pace so I get the most out of each day. The program is recommended for absolute beginners, but you can still get good results if you have some prior programming experience. I found the program to be very in-depth and thorough, but at the same time, gentle. I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel. Thank you, Altcademy!

I would always say I want to learn programming, but I always found it too intimidating. But Altcademy's mentor support and structured curriculum helped me break the barrier and gave me confidence that I can become a programmer. I am now working on my...

I've been learning web development for a couple of years now, but I've always found my studies lacking structure and rigor. So I decided to give a bootcamp a try after hearing great things about Altcademy.  The program adopts an incremental approach where... Read More you build up on your previous skills. This is good since there's no risk of overwhelming beginners with a flood of advanced topics. Although I am not exactly a beginner, but I can see this program as being beginner friendly. You learn all the major aspects of frontend, backend, API development while following along tutorials and working on projects on your own. You can ask your mentor for help when you are stuck, and the community is getting increasingly lively recently. All in all, a fully loaded program at a very affordable price point.

I went with Altcademy because I wanted to learn how to build fullstack websites and needed some guidance. It's hard to find a bootcamp that is online, self paced, has mentor support, AND at an affordable price. And what I love even more is that I am not... Read More just learning how to code, I am learning how to think and problem solve like a software engineer! Altcademy's curriculum is so thorough and clear. The mentors are very friendly and almost always available. The projects they designed helped me understand the different parts web development and how they all interact with each other. This alone has improved my confidence many fold.

Started this course a month ago after a long break from learning to code. The Flexible schedule and self-paced learning is what convinced me to join this bootcamp. The curriculum is challenging. You do need to put in some effort to learn. There is a lot... Read More of content to digest. If you can dedicate a good chunk of time outside of work, you can finish the course in 7-8 months.

I'm currently in the middle of the Full Stack Developer Course and I'm loving it. I have learned so much and I am already able to build useful applications for my professional and casual things. It's online, self paced, and affordable, what's not to like... Read More about it?

I wanted to learn web-development for a career change. I thought it would be a good idea to get some solid fundamentals in a guided program. Well, it seems I made the right choice. It's easier to learn than I thought it would be. Material is well structured... Read More and the assignments are very clear and to the point. The curriculum is divided into small chunks so you can always come back to review. The course is definitely 100% worth it. I paid for the Fullstack program but I did not need to use all the courses since I had already done some front-end. If you can afford the Full-stack program, I would recommend it for sure.

Before joining Altcademy, I read many reviews and compared their pricing with other similar programs. It turns out they were actually the most affordable. Then I compared their curriculum and support with other programs, the material coverage is very... Read More similar to the well known bootcamps. Altcademy provides less face time, but after contacting a couple alumni, they said the included face time were enough to last through the whole duration. Altcademy seems to be a middle ground between the more expensive bootcamps and the cheaper self-learning courses. I have now gone through 2 out of 7 courses of the program. The curriculum is beginner level and very well written. It has both auto graded assignments and more in-depth mentor graded assignments. Feedback from my mentor have been very helpful. I am really enjoying my time here.

My decision to pursue a coding bootcamp is influenced by a desire to improve my job prospects. I am working and don't want to quit my job to join a fulltime bootcamp. So I chose an online part time bootcamp to learn at my own pace and continue working.... Read More I am happy with this decision, I am now studying 15-18hrs a week, about 2 hours on work days, and 3-5 hours on days I don't work. I just finished the first course on HTML and CSS and I am happy with the experience so far.
