An amazing experience
I am now in the position to attest that the things we learned and the depth of our knowledge in Javascript and software development in general is really, really good. If you’re skeptical about whether those months can take you to a professional level, please, know that it really will.

The only bootcamp to consider
If you are looking for a new career in software development or considering a bootcamp, cross everyone else off your list. If you’re willing to work hard, commit to your future in a meaningful and fulfilling way, and searching for a real challenge then Codeworks should be your home for 3 months.
FAQ
Sometimes making a decision is not easy. Here we cover the most frequently asked questions about our program. Feel free to get in touch if you can’t find yours.
At Codeworks you get approximately double the number of learning hours compared to most other bootcamps. But numbers tell only one side of the story. We also undertake incredible efforts to provide you with the best instructors and learning tools available. As a result, you understand how to think like a Software Engineer, instead of simply practicing the latest tools.
We’ve prepared a quick report that sums up core objective parameters from different Full-Stack courses, to help prospective students make their choice.
Other parameters that are very relevant but more subjective, like the quality of the curriculum, or the learning strategy, are left to personal judgement. Each school has its own vision on these topics.
We have a dedicated page that highlights and compares the main characteristics of our courses.
Yes, and no. You could possibly learn the theory by yourself, if you’re extremely clever and crazy stubborn, although it would likely take you much longer. But the truth is that without great support normally people get stuck along the way and lose motivation, eventually giving up. Apart from this, even if you’re the exception to the rule, you would certainly miss the added value of an amazing alumni community, combined with great hiring partners.
Considering the immersive nature of this program, you want to be 100% dedicated to it. So, plan in advance to make sure you can set work and other responsibilities apart during the program duration.
To successfully attend the program you need to be familiar with coding fundamentals, and have a basic knowledge of JavaScript, HTML and CSS. If you start from zero don’t worry though, just let us know during the application process: we’ll offer you an intro to coding that can be done from anywhere, and quickly prepares you for the admission challenge.
All Codeworks students already know how to code once they start the main course (the ones that start from zero learn during the admission challenge preparation). Our program gives you a great opportunity to understand advanced JavaScript concepts, master top JS frameworks, learn industry’s best practices, and advance your career to the next step. During the intro chat we can give you personalized feedback, assessing together your coding level and career objectives.
Yes, you do. On Mac and Linux it’s easier to install some of the software we use throughout the curriculum, but Windows is fine too.
Our classes are completely international. Students come from several different countries, and end up working wherever their passion leads them in the world. Also keep in mind that most coding documentation online is in English, so understanding the language is indispensable to be able to properly work in this field.
You need to be able to understand when someone speaks in English, and express yourself well enough so that people around you know what you mean. As a rule of thumb, if you can watch a movie in English without subtitles and follow along you should be able to attend the course.
No, applying to the course starts the interview process, which can lead to the admission challenge if you seem a good candidate. Only if you pass the admission challenge you’re admitted to the course.
There are two sides to this answer. From a technical point of view, you need to have basic programming knowledge and speak English fluently. On the other hand, as far as personal traits go we look for students who are extremely passionate, friendly, brilliant, and good at working in team.
Good question. We’ve prepared a quick guide so you can prepare for a successful tech interview.
