I come from a background in electrical engineering and many years of experience working with electrical systems and technical projects. I decided to enroll in Nucamp because I wanted to expand my technical skills and learn software development, with the goal of combining programming and technology with my existing engineering background. So far, Nucamp has been a valuable learning experience for me. I started with the fundamentals of web development and progressed into HTML, CSS, JavaScript, APIs, and practical projects. I particularly appreciate the hands-on approach because the assignments give me the opportunity to apply what I learn and understand how different concepts work together in a real project. Balancing work, studying, and other responsibilities can be challenging, and the program requires discipline and independent study. At the same time, having a structured curriculum, workshops, assignments, and instructor support has helped me continue progressing. For me, Nucamp has been a good opportunity to enter the software development field without leaving behind my previous technical experience. My goal after completing the bootcamp is to continue developing my programming skills and build a career that combines my background in electrical engineering with software, automation, and technology. I am looking forward to continuing my education and seeing where this combination of engineering and software development can take me.

cybersecurity and gain practical skills that can help me transition into the technology field. I believe it was a good decision because the program provides structure, useful resources, and a clear path for learning important concepts. One improvement that would make the program even better would be to include a phone-friendly study area with practice exams and flashcards. This would help students review key concepts during short breaks or whenever they have free time. It would also be very helpful to have audio lessons or short audio summaries that students could listen to while driving, exercising, or working. After completing the bootcamp, I hope to continue developing my technical skills, earn cybersecurity certifications, and obtain an entry-level position where I can gain experience and continue growing professionally.

I enrolled in NuCamp through unemployment training as I pivot in my career. I wanted to upskill my knowledge in AI, and it was literally one of the best choices I've made. Even just touching the surface of what I learned about AI, it's opened my mind, my knowledge, and my curiosity to a space I had no idea of with respect to functionality. I've imagined ways to create learning tools, not only for myself, but also as a tool to create training and development protocols for the workplace. I've opened myself up to a vast world of self-employment opportunities by making this investment in my skillset.

Nucamp offers great hands-on cybersecurity labs, but some quizzes need revisions due to unclear questions. The curriculum should align more closely with CompTIA exam objectives.

Honestly, mostly AI generated slop. I wouldn't recommend these bootcamps through this organization, for it does not help you, save for the other students in the class that try to help each other. The class is said to be instructor led, but it is not. It is almost all AI generated content, nearly 100 pages of AI mindless filler a week, and then pointers to a more-well-done TryHackMe website. From stories I've been gathering, there used to be more instructor involvement, and engagement throughout the week, which has been narrowed to almost no time with instructors, the 4hr sessions on your weekends devoted to instructors now being split between multiple courses. So, you used to be able to take multiple of these bootcamps, and then have dedicated times on your weekends for sessions with other students and instructors for overview and assignments. Then, they tell you a day in advance that your selected weekend time that you've planned this course (or multiple) have all been moved to the exact same time. Which means inconvenience to your schedule if you planned things around a dedicated time you thought you'd be having each week only for that to suddenly change, or, even worse, you signed up for more than one course and now have to have the only important engagements be at the exact same time. But then, it gets better because when you used to have one instructor per course, now there is one instructor per 3-4 courses. Which means the 4hr you've paid for instructors and engagement to helping you learn is now maybe 1.5hours. So, ultimately, there are just a bunch of selfish AHoles at the top wanting to pay less of the people engaging with students, to have to do so across a larger net. Good luck trying to get help or involvement from the admin teams, who will do nothing to address your concerns. They will route you to the AI bots on Discord to expect them to answer you instead. Ultimately saying that, there are some good people trying to teach other students wanting to learn, organized by a greedy corporation that doesn't care to even update their materials nor their errors, mostly all composed by AI, with a bunch of uninvolved leadership earning a bunch of money for these unhelpful courses that deal more in abstraction than application, punishing those teachers by juggling way more than they can handle. These aren't worth it. They don't prepare you.

I chose Nucamp as my coding bootcamp because I was looking for something affordable and flexible. Since I work full-time, traditional full-time bootcamps were not an option for me, which is why Nucamp is a perfect fit. I also appreciate that Nucamp offers a flexible option for non-Americans, as it would have been very difficult for me to keep up with fixed schedules given my work commitments. I enrolled in the bootcamp because I wanted to fill gaps in my knowledge. I had already been programming before, but there were certain things I was missing. Nucamp helped me fill exactly those gaps. I am glad that this bootcamp exists and would recommend it to anyone in a similar situation.

I decided to learn HTML and CSS to initiate my software development skills. I had a hard time finding a course I actually felt that I was advancing in, and I was understanding the material. This was my third attempt, and the material and course structure just clicked. The material is clear to follow, and I am finally able to understand what I am seeing as I amcoding. This course has helped me develop a new mindset full of creativity. Thank you very much, looking forward to learning more.

I googled the best and most affordable bootcamp and found this. I had a good experience. Although it was tough to keep up due to other commitments, I managed to get through. The instructor was great too!
