You don’t need prior experience to start. devCodeCamp was designed for beginners. You might have dabbled with coding or tried to teach yourself to code. Our bootcamps start with providing everyone the necessary fundamentals and foundation to be successful. Our bootcamp is flexible and fast-paced, covering a great deal of material in a short amount of time.

Our students come from all walks of life including college students, college graduates, musicians, food service, engineers, trade workers, and even a pilot. Regardless of backgrounds, everyone shared the common goal of wanting to learn to code.

From the beginning of the program, students are taught how to think like a developer by working on real-world projects in a collaborative environment constructed to replicate a real-world software development environment. Throughout the program, you will build a portfolio of real-world applications that will showcase your hirable skill set.

Don’t be afraid to bring your own project ideas with you to create something you are passionate about. If you don’t have an idea, don’t worry that’s what we are here to help you with.

Typically the first step in the admissions process is attending an online info session. During the virtual information session, you will learn about the industry, day in the life of a developer, bootcamp curriculum, what to expect while attending devCodeCamp, what to expect after completing the program, and how you can become a Full Stack developer.

The next step is scheduling a one-on-one meeting with one of our trained Admissions Specialists where we will learn more about you, how this can be a great fit for you, and how we can help you achieve your career goals. After that it comes down to picking a start date, securing funding, and diving into the wonderful world of coding.

devCodeCamp accepts cash, check, or major credit cards. If a credit card is used, a 3.0% processing fee is added to your total.

If that’s not an option, you can check with two companies that offer loans to bootcamp students: Ascent Funding and Climb Credit. devCodeCamp is not affiliated with and does not provide loans through the U.S. Dept. of Education, Title IV student aid, or FAFSA.

We are strongly opposed to removing students if they fall behind or need extra help. Instead, our instructors are ready to provide extra help and mentoring to get you back on track. We understand that learning consists of doing, falling down, and getting back up. Mistakes will happen, but always remember that mistakes are learning opportunities that can lead to growth.

Yes, because a four-year college program may not be right for everyone. However, devCodeCamp wants to be clear that there’s value in degree programs and that boot camps and degrees offer totally different learning.

What each individual needs to weigh is their own situation and goals. devCodeCamp does offer an excellent return on investment for its graduates in terms of cost and time. Those that attend devCodeCamp have had masters, bachelors, and associates degrees, some college, and those who only hold a high school diploma or GED. Our point is it’s not just about which education credential you hold, but rather what you’re capable of learning, your motivation, and persistence.
