I would highly recommend taking a course from these top-notch teachers of tech. The Hack Oregon team is remarkably competent and they've created a very welcoming environment for learning.

Classes are only 8 weeks, so you'll hit the ground running. If you're a total n00b, you might feel that's too fast. And if you're a programming wizard, it might feel like taking a ride on the Portland streetcar agonizingly slow. I'm somewhere in between n00b and wizard, so it felt just right for me.

Your results may vary by course or instructor, but ultimately you'll get out what you put in. Also free pizza (sometimes).
