I attended the 16 week full time bootcamp with DigitalCrafts. I had a great experience and was very happy with my instructor Joe. He was very knowledgeable and provided great practical advice throughout the program. There were some subjects in the curriculum we didn t seem to spend enough time on due to the fast pace, so in order to really learn the material that s covered you have to be prepared to dedicate a lot of time outside of class to understand it. Not everyone was as dedicated to learning the material in general, so the wide range of student levels resulted in poor group project dynamics at times. They have a team dedicated to student success which I was happy about as they post jobs, set up career fairs, and have a career prep week, but in my opinion the career week should be replaced by more backend topics as career week. Overall, I m glad I chose DigitalCrafts!

I was extremely happy with my experience at DigitalCrafts. They give you tons or resources you need to succeed, but you need to make sure you work hard and attend all classes. Don't be afraid to ask questions!

As a non-trad student at the age of 42, it was a helluva ride for me. I made it mainly due to the amazing teachers they have at Digital Crafts. I cannot praise them enough! The curriculum was thorough and I loved the after hours help for when I had out of class questions.

I had a great experience at Digital Crafts. I self-taught for a while and learned a lot but had no direction as to how to apply and connect the different things I was learning. At DC I learned how all these different languages and frameworks work together and got a really well-rounded understanding of software development. My instructor, Veronica, was really great and SO knowledgeable. I made some really great friendships with my classmates and got very comfortable working in teams on projects and pair programming - a very valuable skill when looking for jobs down the road. Highly recommend!

Coming from a non technical background and looking for a career change, I could not be more satisfied with my decision to put my software development education in the hands of DigitalCrafts. Aside from learning a ton of different programming languages within 16 weeks, the network that is built within the same 4 months makes it well worth it. From career services to the best instructor I have ever had, the DigitalCrafts experience is unmatched.

Overall a very pleasant experience with DigitalCrafts. I attended the online flex program so my cohort was both Atlanta and Houston which brought a great mix of individuals from all walks of life. Having ZERO prior experience with JavaScript (or lets be real - I had no idea what visual studio code was), I can now claim that I have a great FOUNDATION to begin my career transition. Its important to note - you will get the foundation of JavaScript, React, Node, and other relevant material taught in class, but its up to each individual to really dive into the documentation and to learn on their own time in order to build up on that knowledge.

I just graduated from the online flex full stack bootcamp. Was pretty good. I'm definitely a better developer now than when I started (I already work in the field), and they provide a lot of support for job search. Would recommend.

My overall experience at Digital Crafts was exceptional. You never really know what to expect going into an immersive program that claims to have you job ready with a technical skills that you aren't all that familiar with.

What would my advice be to someone looking to go into the program? Study as much as possible beforehand and apply yourself as much as possible when you finally do. You will meet some amazing people as classmates and hopefully have the same experience with the teachers and assistance as well.

My experience was great! The curriculum is based on in-demand technologies that I feel are going to help me find a job soon. This is a bootcamp, so there will be times where you may feel like you're taking in too much information, but for the most part, I would say that's completely normal and I didn't feel like that most of the time.

DigitalCrafts was an overall great experience for me. I had Joe as my instructor and he did a great job at breaking down these complex topics into easy to understand bits. Just be warned the pace is very fast and you can easily get bogged down with the material if you don't put time outside of class. For people trying to decide if DigitalCrafts immersive program is a good fit for them, ask yourself these questions: Can you commit all your energy to strictly coding for 4 months straight? Are you willing to put in time outside of class to learn even more beyond the scope of the course? If the answer is no to either of these questions then consider enrolling part-time. Going through the program successfully and being one of the strongest students in my cohort, I'd like to leave some imparting wisdom to people considering this course. Do the pre-work and ask a lot of questions!! You're paying too much money to not be giving this 200% of your effort. Understand that these are complex topics and you will not learn this material overnight. My recommendation if you're serious about this would be to look up the curriculum prior to enrolling and take a few months to get a feel for some (not all) of the technologies being used. This will put you miles ahead of other students and will give you a solid foundation for setting up your coding environment, the fundamentals of programming, and realistic expectations coming into the program. All in all DigitalCrafts has a great reputation for good reason, the tools to succeed are there you just need to be willing to put in the work.
