The Best Abidjan Coding Bootcamps Of 2025

I started the Software Engineering career track with Springboard in September of 2023 and completed it in November of 2024. It took me longer than expected (10-11 months is the expectation) to complete the course since I had to balance my schedule with a full time job with work related travel and many life events but the Springboard team was very accommodating and allowed me to finish in a timeline that worked for my situation. 

I already work in software as a business systems analyst but taking the software engineering track was valuable for me because it helped me get more in depth knowledge in the technical side of my work and a deeper understanding of what the developers on my team work through day to day. The course material in Springboard provided me a good technical baseline to continue my education in software because it gave me a good principled understanding of software development and how current web based applications generally work. 

Despite some of the technologies and frameworks being taught in the course not being the latest and most popular in the industry, the understanding gained from this bootcamp allowed me to explore and pick up new technologies very quickly because it gave me a good foundational understanding of how web applications work. So I would recommend not reading into which languages/frameworks are being taught in Springboard as a detractor from taking this course. The material is of high quality and Colt Steeles videos are very easy to follow and well planned out.

MIT-PE is a fantastic professional education route! I took a summer fermentation technology course from MIT-PE in 2004. From the knowledge I gained in that one summer program, I became a senior scientist in fermentation and bioprocess engineering and was critical in the research and development of sustainable aviation fuel. It was natural for me to decide on MIT-PE when I decided I wanted to expand my skills into data science and learn Python, deep learning, machine learning, and AI. 

It is a super intensive 12- week program consisting of 8 courses with three main projects: a first coding and statistics project, an elective project and a capstone project. The courses are the following: Foundations:Python and Statistics, Data Analysis and Visualization, Machine Learning, Practical Data Science, Deep Learning, Recommendation Systems, Elective Project, and capstone Project. The first week of the actual program, you learn Python. The second week, you learn descriptive and inferential statistics. If you took statistics in college, imagine all that you learned in that one undergraduate course in one semester and compressed it into one week. That can give you an idea of the compression and intensity of the courses.  Each course has 30 to 40 mini videos no longer than 20 minutes. The stats course even had historical background videos. The videos get straight to the point and are very engaging. Each course also has live lecturers. These are world class Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) college professors performing real world research in data science, statistics, engineering and the biological and mathematical sciences. The professors give excellent live lectures focusing on concepts and thinking and really get you excited. here is a different MIT world class professor for each course. Those lectures are each 2 hours long during the week and you might have 2 to 4 per course. Each of the 8 courses also has case studies written in Jupyter Notebooks. On the weekends both Saturday and Sunday you have mandatory mentor 2-hour sessions each where mentors go cases by case through the Jupyter notebooks. During the mentor session is where the ‘Applied Data Science’ happens. You apply the concepts you learned from the professors in the case studies during the mentor sessions. The mentors are live and this is where you can ask highly detailed or code questions.  They offer incredible support through Slack. You are assigned your own program manager. Your program Manager is your cheerleader, facilitator and main support. The Program Managers and mentors are part of Great Learning. Great Learning is a learning facilitator, and they are the producers of all the mini videos that get into the details of the courses. MIT professors provide high-altitude concept live lectures. Great Learning provides all the support, mentoring and tutorials, and detail-oriented training. Great Learning uses real-world industry experts. This is a global industry with global experts in data science. Great Learning appears to be an India based company, so you learn mathematics, statistics, and data science concepts from Indian data scientists, engineers, and computer scientists. And they are beyond excellent! That is the beauty of online education. You can learn from the absolute best leaders in the field. MIT-PE leverages online learning by offering the very best instruction and instructors. The live lectures and mentoring lectures are all recorded that day and uploaded by the afternoon in case you miss them. I was on the west coast, so they were 7:00 am for professor lectures and 6:00 am for mentor lectures. The timing was not ideal, but I did it and it was worth it! They also offer written transcripts of all lectures and mentoring sessions.

 The program offers a lot of support, cheerleading and motivational support and empathy from the program managers is really nice and sometimes required. The mentored learning sessions are very practical, detail oriented and hands on applications of coding the concepts learned by the professors in their live lectures. The lectures from the world class lecturers are conceptual and big picture. The AI mentor is very helpful on the 3 main projects. Gemini is also very helpful. Plan on everything taking twice as long as you originally expected. 

Plan accordingly. I would recommend to anyone who is considering taking this program to understand the commitment required. It is not self-paced. It is rigorous. It is an intense workout. So be prepared.  But it will be one of the most rigorous and rewarding programs you can take. You will learn so much your brain will be exploding! They have complimentary starting courses to get you up to speed before the actual program session starts. Take advantage of the pre-course prep. Learn how to navigate around in Olympus learning platform before your ever attend program orientation. The lectures are usually 2 hours long. They do post recordings of them on the Olympus learning platform. You will probably have to go through them a few times because there is so much great information. Pre-read the class lecture slides and pre-reads before the lectures, watch the lectures without taking notes during the live presentations so you can absorb the concepts, tips and tricks the guest lecturers provide. Then go back and re-watch the lectures to take your notes. Focus on getting the concepts down to take the quizzes. Use the case studies to practice your work in Google Colab and Jupyter notebooks.  Your mentoring sessions on the weekends are also 2 hours long each day and they go through case studies.  Get two monitors. I wish I had had two monitors. One for the mentor describing the case study and one for the case study Jupyter Notebook open and operating in Colab. Just because you go through the case studies with the mentor does not mean you know what you are doing.  Copy the case studies and practice code in the case studies. Hands-on work is essential. This is a rigorous fully immersive learning experience.  When you get to the neural networks and recommenders, plan on doubling the time to complete projects. This is not because of the rigor of the coursework per se it is because you are using shared services in Google Colab.  In fact, once you hit the 5th course in the program, you might want to buy Google Colab Pro for $9.99 per month to get a higher ranking as a shared user and possibly increase your quota. Extract files only once per notebook. Extracting files exceeds your google quota if you do it more than once you will start to have all kinds of problems. This is a Google problem not MIT-PE problem.  When you do your projects, have a clear strategy and plan before you even start coding. Organizing code is important so as you learn the concepts and work in the case studies, pay attention to how the code is organized. It is fun! and model building is a BLAST! Once you are done with the program, you will probably want to go back to everything you couldn't do the first time and improve all your work. You need 60% in every class in the course to get the certificate. That is not 60% overall but 60% per each class and project. You will be pushing for 100%, but when you get down to time and the last few projects, you just always need to remember what you need for the certificate. Data Science is just plain fun! And MIT-PE and Great Learning ignite a passion for data science! So, get in there and just do it!  

The cost of my program starting in September 2024 was $3700 USD. It might be more now. But they do offer early enrollment specials and some different financing alternatives. I just slapped it on my credit card and thought of it as investment in myself. Data Scientists make anywhere from $80K to $500K USD so I figured it was a decent investment. 

 

I started out at Correlation One with little or no knowledge about coding but at the end of an intensive course training on software development I was able to learn new skills which will help me go a long way in my software development dreams . Correlation made it so easy, which few months back I never thought it could be so easy . The lead instructors and the teaching assistant and career coach were hands on with delivery cutting edge lectures and assistant. I recommend Correlation One anytime any day . 

From the start, I immediately knew I was going to enjoy the course! I appreciated how the lessons had us look at the history of design, given that we needed to have that understanding of related principles; I found myself coming back to review them while I was working on my unit projects. Everything was built via scaffolding, and I felt that my skills consequently were being reviewed and tested within every new unit. And, when I did have some questions and/or issues about how to proceed, the mentor that Designlab paired me with was there for me! Honestly, the feedback given to me by him was incredibly helpful and it's things like these that really enhanced my overall experience. The caveat is that sometimes, your mentors might not be as responsive as you would like, so it can be hit or miss, but there's no questioning the fact that having one is something that should be the default. Finally, I loved how both the practice tasks and unit projects got me engaged to the point that hours flew by without me noticing! I didn't think I'd be this happy and excited to work on something like what Designlab has to offer, but I'm oh so happy that I found them!

I had an awesome experience with them for the scrum product owner certification course. The faculty taught us for 2 full days straight and helped me to gain in depth knowledge of the certification.

 Thinkful was so helpful and I believe it was the solid foundation and starting point of my software development journey. I enjoyed studying with them and I felt like it was thorough and the lessons were on point with relativity and being complete.

Highly recommend to anyone starting out as a developer.

It's a very nice program, but also challenging 🌹
There are useful references and professors who explain well, when I submit the projects I catch what I've been missing out on 
It was a very wonderful experience with Udacity and I am definitely honored to have a certificate from them ♥

I was vey impressed with the level of training in the Human Resources course. It was very interesting and I fairly enjoyed it. However I was disappointed when I found out after I completed the course, that it is not a aPHR (Associate Professional Human Resources) certification. I am new to this field, so either I overlooked this when looking over their website or it was not mentioned in the details. Like I said, it was a good introduction for a newbie, however now I have to pay an additional cost to get an aPHR Certification, with the same curriculum. So, just be aware if you’re on a budget and would rather pay for Certification instead. 

I took the Product Management certification course. It was packed with information with fun instructors that had real-world experience. The coursework was helpful in integrating the lectures without being too daunting. The time flew by, but I feel much more prepared to go into the world and apply Product Management jobs. 

An amazing bootcamp. I have tried to learn to code before using a combination of sits but nothing really stuck with me and it was hard to keep motivated and it was hard to see any progress. I have only been using Skillcrush for 1 week and I feel like I have months of experience as a coder. The lessons are superb, they walk you through everything in a way that helps you understand. and there is always an instructor just a message away to help you with any issues. honestly words cant do Skillcrush justice !! I only wish I had found this bootcamp sooner. 10 out of 10 for sure.

One of the best things I have chosen to do. At first I wasn't too certain about enrolling in this boot camp,  it seemed to good to be true, the on board process was simple, everyone since has been great....my recruiters my advisors they have all been there for me. While doing the courses you have ample forms of help from discord to the tutors. Yes the work is in depth buy if you focus and apply the learning YOU WILL  make it through. They also offer help with placement and the interview process. If you are on the fence about non traditional learning then don't be with tripleten 

I attended the data science boot camp of Clarusway. It was an unforgettable experience. I can never forget about it. I miss my days at the boot camp. I miss my friends and instructors. Only a few months after I graduated, I was accepted into my dream job but because of some family issues, I couldn't go abroad to the UK.  And only a few months later I was accepted to the dream job I am working now. Thank you guys! You have completely changed my life! I love you all.

Not only does Avocademy do a wonderful job in their foundations course to prepare your skills for real world design projects, but the access and support for mentors is one of the most valuable resources I've ever had. They have a variety of mentors available for all areas of your foundational and career development needs. From general reinforcement and positivity, to real world experience, to career guidance in your job hunt, they will guide you for any decisions you have to make. I would not be where I'm at in my professional development without them and this has been undoubtedly one of the best decisions I've ever made!

Review: Nucamp Bootcamp Experience

I decided to enroll in Nucamp because I wanted to transition into a tech career & It was definitely the right decision for me! The curriculum is well-structured, and the instructors are knowledgeable and supportive. The combination of self-paced learning and interactive workshops made it easy to grasp new concepts and apply them through hands-on projects.

One of the highlights of the bootcamp was the sense of community. The active online forums allowed me to connect with my peers and instructors, making the learning experience more engaging and enjoyable.

After completing the bootcamp, my goal is to continue growing as a developer and eventually specialize in front-end development. Nucamp has set a strong foundation for my career in tech, and I'm excited to see where this journey takes me!

I recently had the opportunity to complete the Le Wagon Web Development Bootcamp in São Paulo, and it was truly a transformative experience. Over the course of an intensive 9-week program, I was challenged to step out of my comfort zone and dive headfirst into the world of technology.

At first, I was a bit hesitant to join, mainly because of a few negative reviews I had come across about bootcamps in general. Many people doubt whether it’s truly possible to learn so much in such a short period of time. However, I’m here to prove that, with dedication and focus, it is absolutely achievable!

The curriculum was comprehensive, covering essential tools and technologies like JavaScript, Ruby, SQL, HTML, CSS, Ruby on Rails, Figma, Git, GitHub, and more. Through hands-on projects and collaborative teamwork, I gained practical experience that prepared me for real-world challenges in web development.

What made this journey even more special was the incredible support from the Le Wagon team and my classmates. The instructors—Eduardo Piccin, Laura Amaro, Patricia Kihara, Nicolas Enne, and Roberto Barros—were outstanding, offering guidance and inspiration at every step. Their expertise and encouragement were pivotal in helping me develop both technical and problem-solving skills.

Overall, this bootcamp was a game-changer for me, equipping me with the knowledge and confidence to pursue a new career in web development. I’m excited to apply the skills I’ve gained to impactful projects and am grateful to Le Wagon for making this possible. If you're looking for a program that combines technical rigor, collaboration, and inspiration, I highly recommend Le Wagon! 🚀

I completed the manual testing program and was very satisfied. Careerist has a convenient platform for classes, and managers promptly answered any questions I had. Overall, I had few questions about the program because it is structured in a way that everything becomes clear during the lecture. There are also free additional lessons if you want to delve deeper into a particular topic. I also like that there are tests and summaries available for use.

Es una plataforma que sirve para potenciar conocimientos previos adquiridos, formar una base teórica práctica y eficiente. Sin embargo, siempre es necesario que cada uno complemente con el estudio específico de nuevos frameworks.

I highly recommend the Data Analytics course from Turing College! There are many online data courses available, but what sets Turing apart is its unique approach to learning, which makes the course truly worth its price. One game-changer is that students are required to review each other's work. This process not only deepens your own understanding but also helps reinforce your knowledge continually.

One of the best aspects of the course is the hands-on projects that simulate real business cases. The opportunity to receive feedback from professionals adds incredible value and helps you better understand real-world business challenges.

Additionally, Turing provides excellent support with job searching after you complete the course. They offer guidance and resources that are up-to-date and highly relevant in today's competitive job market.

As someone who had no coding experience before, I can confidently say that Turing helped me learn entirely new skills. Most importantly, the skills I've gained go beyond the basics — I now feel confident as a Data Analyst who can think critically and solve complex problems. 

This bootcamp was super interactive and overall, very helpful. The student support system was consistent and available at all times. I honestly have no complaints at all since this was my first ever online bootcamp so I am very satisfied. Thank you HyperionDev!
