Life changing
Last year i was so close to paying £10k plus for online coding courses but thankfully I applied for this course and got in. Having this opportunity propelled me on to my current role which i will forever be grateful for.
My favourite thing about the Bootcamp was how they cared about our mental health. We were given the option of having free counselling sessions along with our own personal mentors who were there to help us with applying for jobs and solving code.

My only problem is i wish the experience could have been in person but with the pandemic i guess that was not possible. - PanamaGraduate • Full Stack Development • BirminghamVerified by LinkedInJul 07, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Best Career Decision I have made
This course was amazing! Not only did it provide everything that I needed to be a full-stack developer, but it also created a support network that fosters great relationships for employment and further upskilling. The course content itself allowed me to try various programmes; and the empowerment sessions, external partner events and panel discussions gave me the opportunity to engage with people in various areas in technology.

I left the course with self-confidence, a community, new friends and a clear direction in life with a road map to get there.
I would highly recommend anyone looking to change careers and has the opportunity to take this to go for it. You will never regret it. - DesireeGraduateVerified by LinkedInMay 06, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
You won't regret it!!
Signing up for the BlackCodher bootcamp in a global pandemic was one of the best decisions I've made in 2020. The whole experience was so impactful and I've met the most inspiring people during this time. Graduates of BlackCodher ended up securing Software Developer roles in small - big sized businesses. Did I mention that the bootcamp is for free??!!! Sign up. You won't regret it.

Not only did I become a competent software engineer after this program, I also now have a strong network of fellow black female engineers!- AnonymousJunior Software DeveloperJul 27, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Bootcamp
Very disorganised and unprofessional. I have been accepted onto the course more than twice but team forgot to email me about start dates and links. Did not respond to my email. Then after promising to enrol me on the next course declined my application. Disappointing to say the least.
