2 Courses

DevPoint Labs teaches an 11-week, full-time and an 11-week, part-time online full stack web development coding bootcamp. The bootcamp curriculum covers HTML, CSS, Ruby, Ruby on Rails, SQL, JavaScript, React, Redux, and more. DevPoint Labs' approach to learning combines pair programming with traditional lectures and a mix of group projects, lean methodologies, hackathons and one-on-one mentorship from instructors. 

DevPoint Labs is aimed at students with little to moderate experience in web development. To apply, candidates fill out the short application on the website, then chat with a staff member about their motivations. Once accepted students will need to complete pre-work before the first day of class.

Leading up to graduation, DevPoint Labs prepares students for finding a job with mock interviews, workshops, guest speakers, and a Launch Day to showcase their projects to potential employers.

    It's Worth It!

    I had first started looking into bootcamps back in 2018 and spent months researching bootcamps - even going as far as to reach out to their former alumni. DevPoint Labs and their alumni were, as others have mentioned, very honest and upfront about what they could do for you and whatever they couldn’t do (mostly a job guarantee) they very much made up for in allowing plenty of other opportunities for networking and resources. Once I had decided on DPL as the bootcamp of my choice, I roped...

    Life Changer

    **Obligatory "you get what you put in"
    I came in with minimal frontend experience. Three months after graduation I got my first dev job working for a company in Tokyo.

    What originally attracted me to DevPoint was their honesty. They were the only bootcamp in my area I spoke with that didn't give a sales pitch, and I very much appreciated that. The faculty was knowledgable and the staff, with their easy-going attitudes, helped relieve the stress of an intense curriculum by organ...

    Best Thing To Happen To Me

    I felt lost on where I wanted to do with my career path then I came across DevPoints Labs through recommendations from alumni's. They all advise in what you put in is what you will get back in returning and that is true. It's a super friendly environment. The course is not a easy but with the help of the wonderful TA's they do their best to guide you in the right direction on helping you learn and progress in coding. If you are feeling lost don't just up in quit push yourself to keep mov...

    Great Experience!

    I'm a graduate of DevPoint's Full Time Full-Stack Web Dev Bootcamp and it was a really great experience for me in every metric. I took a leap with this camp to make a career change and having come into the program with no coding background, I feel the team at DevPoint has prepared me for a great start in Software Engineering. I'm building great things on the web now and have a very marketable new skill set. Plus, I love the work I'm doing! This is a tough course but its also a stellar le...

    Up Your Skills!

    If you are feeling like you can't get ahead in your current job position, this bootcamp is for you!! Coming in I had a slight background in coding, but even with that experience everything was completely foreign and new to me. The learning environment is open and friendly, the teachers and TA's are awesome, and also they are upfront and honest with you about this program. This means, just because you show up doesn't mean you are automatically guaranteed a job... you need to put in the ti...

    A Worthy Challenge

    This course was like a roller coaster with so many bumps and turns you wouldn't believe it! My time here amounted to one of the most challenging times in my life. But the payoff was worth it, I feel like I learned so much in such a short amount of time and it's unbelievable. Not just that but the people here are amazing, they will help you in any way they can and be your friend the whole way and afterwards.

    Becoming Hackers

    My time at DevPoint Labs was one of the most difficult, exciting, fun and greatest educational experiences I have ever been through. I highly recommend this coding bootcamp. The diverse and fun culture they have makes school, not seem like school. The staff are all personable and they really do care about making sure you do well in the course. They all want to see you succeed and the motivation they provide makes you feel like you can accomplish anything. If you are looking to dabble in ...

    Exciting, challenging, fun

    I recently graduated from the full-time web development cohort at DevPoint Labs, and I of course wanted to write a review about my experience.

    Before the cohort started, we got some instructive preparation work to do to get us into the basics of programming. We also got the task to do a basic website about ourselves, which we then got to present in front of our classmates on the first day.

    The schedule was straightforward – in the mornings we had lectures and after lunc...

    DevPoint Labs is Worth It!

    My experience at DevPoint Labs was phenomenal. I graduated from the 11-week part-time web developer bootcamp just a few weeks ago and it was hard but 100% worth it. I had been teaching myself to code for about 6 months before deciding to attend a bootcamp. I also work full time, 10 hour days, and have a family. It wasn't easy to balance everything but it's possible! It was a huge sacrifice but I'm so happy I did it.

    The cohort really helped me establish a soli...

    My time at DevPoint Labs was an excellent experience! All of the people in the staff are of the highest quality. The full time instructor, Spencer, is a top notch teacher. Although coding is a difficult subject, he is able to keep you engaged in the information by creating a fun and exciting learning environement. I came into the course with absolutely no prior experience, and I left after 3 months as a certified full stack developer! Without having the wonderful community support from the...
