A platform for bootcamp learning: students participate in intensives – individually and in teams to learn programming and solve problems. Bootcamps can be compared to boot camps, where you come and study a subject for a certain time, participate in mini-Olympiads and compete with other teams. Hack Reactor’s motto is “Don’t just learn to code, start thinking like a developer”. Bootcamps have already become notable suppliers of personnel to American IT companies.
What training looks like: 12 weeks, every day a busy schedule, the student gets into a real working environment. Learning takes place in real time. Students listen to lectures online, work in teams and pairs on assignments, brainstorm and do projects.
Feedback: Students defend their projects and learn to accept criticism.
Certificates: None. Instead, you get a real portfolio of projects.
Suitable for whom: people who are job-oriented in the USA, can give up work completely for a few months and only study. You have to be fully involved to learn, you cannot study in a bootcamp at the same time as another job.
In addition to online courses, Hack Reactor has offline and blended courses where students meet periodically.
Cost: $17,980
