Who takes this course and what do they do after the Bootcamp?

Everyone that is motivated, who is comfortable collaborating, and willing to learn is a fit for this course. Most of the people joining our course have little or no previous experience with coding. And the majority of people taking our course do it to become web developers. But we also host product managers, entrepreneurs and consultants that take this course to up-skill and become better at their jobs. With Le Wagon, there is often a misconception: it’s a coding school reserved for entrepreneurs, which is ABSOLUTELY not the case. The majority of our alumni in Australia do the course to become web developers. The reason for that misconception lies in the fact that during the course, you’ll be building 2 fully-functional web applications. After all, building stuff and problem-solving lies at the core of both programming and entrepreneurship. We truly want to make sure that you have the strongest suite of skills once you finish the course. If you’re able to, from scratch, build two fully functioning web applications during the program after only 9 weeks, that is already quite an achievement and sets you firmly on the path of web development.

Any other information that would be good to know?

Installments: There is a 3000$ deposit to reserve your spot at the full-time Bootcamp. The remain 7000$ will be paid in two installments of 3500$ respectively one week and four weeks into the course. For the part-time, it's 5000$ upfront to reserve your spot and the remaining 5000$ is due 1 month in. Gender diversity: In terms of Gender diversity, we are pretty balanced. The last cohort, we had respectively 33%, 68% and 40% female students. Average time to find a job in Australia: On average, it takes around 2-3 months to find a full-time job. Some students take one week, others take 2-3 months and some take more. This depends on your transferable skills, personality, visa situation and your effort of actively searching for a job. What to expect in terms of education: There is no place that is more effective to teach you Coding. We want you to learn as much as possible in 9 weeks. Our objective is that you'll be enjoying programming and be confident to continue your own journey as a self-driven learner and a problem-solver. With other words, we’ll make sure that you’ll know how to fly when we push you out of your nest. But it’s up to you to continue to learn to be become a better flyer. If you genuinely want to become good at programming, it’s going to be some year-long journey. Dropout rates: Dropout rates in Melbourne have been 0%.

What makes the Le Wagon campus Melbourne particularly stand-out?

First is our co-working (Inspire9), which looks like a Brooklyn loft. Inspire9 is just a place we love. It’s a big open space with ambitious, smart, driven, but still humble people. It’s a little ecosystem where we feed off each other. As part of the community, we have one of our teachers Marty and our career coach Jamie from AdvisorySpace, who will be actively helping the students to position themselves in the job market, which is part of the career service we provide. We organize a career day as well as providing ongoing job support for those who require it. Second is the vibe and the progression level. We bring along the Australian chillness in our educational approach, as well as a bit of playfulness that we believe has real impact on learning as we’ve had some exceptional results over time. The high level quality of the web apps our students build should speak for itself, especially knowing that around 90% of our students have had little or no previous experience with coding. To see all the web apps built by our alumni, https://lew.ag/mel1, https://lew.ag/melbourne2, https://lew.ag/melbourne3, https://lew.ag/melbourne4, https://lew.ag/melbourne5, https://lew.ag/melbourne6. We are also lucky to have exceptional teachers as part of the crew (in Alec and Marty), who bring many unique gold nuggets in their deep pool of creative approaches to code. Our cohorts are very diverse in terms of gender, nationality and previous professional background and blends The atmosphere is mindful and creates an environment for collaboration and blends well into such diverse cohorts as we have (in terms of gender, nationality, and previous professional experience).

What sets Le Wagon apart from other Bootcamps and institutions in Australia?

In how many Coding Courses are students really able to build a web app from scratch by the end of the course? And isn't it curious that this is achieved in the program that is also the shortest among all Bootcamps? Our core lies in the quality of education and delivering the content effectively. We are a growth-minded business, continuously working on improving every aspect of the learning experience for our students. In the last 2 weeks of the program, students build products in teams of 3-4 people. At the end of their product sprint, they pitch in front of an audience- which means students have to know how to code a fully functional application and deploy it to demo it live. Said another way, we are truly accountable and, therefore, put in an immense effort into making sure that our students have acquired a satisfactory coding level for them to be able to build these web applications by themselves in only 9 weeks. It's likely the foundation that lies in Le Wagon being awarded the position as the best Coding Bootcamp for 4 years in a row. And it reflects in how we deliver our product from the effective program structure, the quality of teaching, the learning interface, our content, our playfulness, and our community. There is a misconception that the course is too short. 9 weeks is the time it takes us to train you to become a Junior Dev. We also emphasize heavily on replicating an experience that is close to best practices applied among the top tech companies. One of these practices is pair-programming and collaboration. Pair-programming is such an approach to effective problem-solving, learning, and writing better code. There are reasons why companies such as (REA, Thoughtworks, HelloFresh) insist on this practice. And in terms of group collaboration, we work for 3 weeks straight, in groups of 3-4 people, to build web applications that you are proud of while training you to become the Developer version 3.0 that is demanded in 2019. This means: Someone that can handle a little bit of chaos by knowing how to problem-solve, that know how to collaborate, that knows how to design a mockup, to run tests, that understands the power of effectively manage a team and a product, and of course, someone with strong coding skill.

How’s Le Wagon’s campus in Melbourne?

Pretty cool is the short answer! We are located 50 meters from Richmond station in a big co-working space called Inspire9. Richmond itself is the tech hub of Melbourne with plenty of amazing restaurants and bars in addition to being one of the most central public transport spots in town. We chose to be part of the Inspire9 co-working community as Le Wagon and inspire9 works based on the same values. Le Wagon is a community Driven Bootcamp (every GM of Le Wagon has been a previous alumni), we have a product-driven approach to learning how to code, and we are super inclusive and collaborative - which creates balanced cohorts in terms of gender, nationalities, and previous professional background. These values are as well reflected in Inspire9, which is a community driven co-working space, known for being inclusive and unique. It is as well known as the home to some very successful Australian startups such as LIFX, CultureAmp, Who Gives a Crap, and Rome2Rio. With this blend of two complementary communities (Le Wagon and Inspire9), our students are able to work alongside tech companies, professional developers and CTOs, and truly build their network and become a part of the family. In terms of education, having such a space is PRICELESS. Not only does it foster creativity, but it also removes tension, one of the main barriers for learning.
