Web Development course in London

We actually use Ruby as a learning tool rather than an end in itself, the idea behind to teach you the core concepts of software engineering and key soft skills to allow you to learn and work with other languages post-bootcamp. This is especially relevant considering how fast languages evolve and how important it is for developers to adapt to their environment.

Ruby is one of the very few languages that allow you to go through a tech product lifecycle and prototype scalable web applications in a short period of time. In terms of learning environment, Ruby allows us to recreate working conditions very similar to what you would find in a tech team thereby preparing you to take your next professional step. It is also one of the most transferable languages in terms of syntax and logic. Hence why we've seen many alumni transitioning to other coding languages straight after the Bootcamp.

Ruby is still widely used across the tech world and it's easy to transfer your tech skills from one coding language to another.

In terms of career support, we have both internal and external processes to help you kick-start your career in tech.

Among other things we organize: - A quarterly Le Wagon job fair bringing together all our hiring partners (corporates, start-ups, recruitment agencies); - 1:1 interview with companies and organizations looking for tech talents; - Events giving you the chance to meet the community of our educational partners (Google Campus, TechHub, etc.) and discover the London tech scene; - Internal events to help you successfully crack your interviews by strengthening your applications (LinkedIn, CV workshops, CV 1:1 mentoring); - Access to online tools hosted on our learning platform, including tech-test hands-on training; - Alumni discussion panels to share their experience and give you tips on your future career plans.

We also have a dedicated job board on Slack only accessible to our London alumni community where we share all relevant job offers. Last but not least, we recently released our latest career survey results giving you an overview of career prospects after the Bootcamp.

The application process consists of the following steps: - Online application available using this link - In person or online interview with our London admission team - Ruby track on Codecademy (± 14 hours) - Contract signature - Invoice - Le Wagon prep-course (± 50 hours)

The Ruby track on Codecademy (± 14 hours) has to be completed before we can review your application with the team and make a final decision and successful candidates get access to Le Wagon prep-course (± 50 hours) once they've completed the onboarding process (signed contract + deposit payment). Both courses are evaluated on a pass/fail basis and all candidates need to complete 100% of both courses.

£6,500 for both the Full-Time and Part-Time Bootcamps. A deposit of £2,500 is paid upon signing your contract to secure your spot, and then the remaining balance of £4,000 is due 1 week before the course start date.

The course was initially designed for candidates with no technical background, which means not having previous coding experience would not impact your ability to complete the course. Motivation and full commitment are the main selection criteria as we've realized these are the two essential ingredients necessary to turn the Bootcamp experience into a success, no matter your background or previous experience.

Considering not only the skillset and training methodology you would learn but also the tech network you would join, I would say that such an immersive learning experience is probably the best way to deep dive into coding and build actionable tech skills.

What candidates have in common is that they come from a non-technical background and have a strong willingness to build actionable tech skills in a short period of time.
