Life changing. Aside from making you a developer, Northcoders teach you to be resilient and open to constantly challenging and improving yourself.

What were you doing before the bootcamp and what made you apply?

What was the support like on the course?
Every member of the Northcoder team was knowledgable, encouraging and friendly. They helped me overcome each barrier I faced and gave me the confidence to succeed.
What advice would you give to anyone thinking about applying?
