ya tolka poluchila net ot Hacker Paradise 🙁 v Costa Rica

Чисто теоретически 😉

The fundamental reason people choose Online boot camps are either a) to change careers by gaining new skills b) Improve on already existing skillset. That leaves us with
1) Target Audience, whether ppl should have some coding exp or are total novices welcome.
2) Cost ($25 – $4.999)
3) Mentor-ship (Y/N)
4) Career Support (resume, interview prep, employers who hire those grads) (Y/N)
5) Financial aid is mostly negligible to zero for online schools I guess(not like hack reactor, dev bootcamp etc.,)
6) Reputation and User Reviews (scouting Google, Quora, Reddit etc.,)
7) Success in the marketplace (Aims achieved)
8) Faculty reputation rather than pure brand perception of the provider
9) At the end of the day, it comes down to fit. – meeting alums, discussing user needs etc.,

well, we need to think more… offline schools could be compared by about 50 parameters i came up with (and other sites borrowed). So far no one has done a comparison site for online schools, and there is a reason for that.
Off the top of my head i can come up with
-financial aid
-financing

What else?

Oops. Sorry 😀 I would say, the popular parameters would be “price”, code school is like $29/month, BLOC.io averages $4,999. So I guess price would be an excellent parameter. Also, Treehouse helps people in career support whereas Bloc.Io is best suited for entrepreneurs. Thinkful,Bloc, Treehouse are all mentor focused, meaning a mentor works with the student during the program, the parameter being the amount of times that they meet per week. Also General Assembly, has some online offerings as well. These are some of the points, just off my mind 🙂

No 😉 what i meant is what parameters do you want to use to compare online schools? I am not familiar with them and i am not sure what’s the difference between them. When i learned about offline bootcamps i came up with the idea of how to compare them: for example, if they provide visa or not, if they have discounts or not, do they help with a job search or not. I have a good idea how to find online bootcamps, but i have no idea about criteria of their comparison, except of “focus”, “price”, and “video tutorials”. What else is different between them?

Hi Dmitry,

I am not exactly sure on the database structure to implement since I am not aware of what language/framework you used, to design this site. I would suggest you to have it simple, just by adding a tab on “Bootcamps by Focus” next to the big data tab, naming it as “Online Bootcamps”. The popular ones as far as I am aware after Googling, Quora and Reddit are, Code School, Code Avengers, Treehouse, Thinful, BLOC.IO, Tealeaf etc.,

Hi,
Yes, I can do it if you’ll help me… It won’t make sense to compare online schols with offline schools… what would be the database structure to compile and compare online schools? Please send me your ideas to info@bootcamps.in

Thank you so much for taking the time in creating a website where people, like me, spending massive amounts of time online searching for the right coding bootcamp, can come and find them in a single place. THANKS! Also, having said that, I know of a few ppl, who are interested in these bootcamps, but can’t attend in-person full time due to family committments. I too, cannot quit my job to attend an immersive bootcamp.

Can you please also include ONLINE providers such as Code School, Code Avengers, Treehouse, BLOC.io, Thinkful etc etc.,. IT WOULD BE VERY HELPFUL!!!

Thank you so much Dmitry. Much appreciated :))

Hey Lizzy

I sent you a reply up in the discussion, hope you get back to us and say hi.

Hi Lizzy, this is Dan, the founder of Ruby on the Beach. Dimitri is correct, we are a new school. We’d love to meet you online to talk about what we’re doing. But if you’re reading this here, or anyone else who’s interested: I’ve built, run, written curriculum and taught bootcamps going back to 1998, when I was lead on a 14-week bootcamp course that I was part of for 3 years. Previous to that, I’d taught technology at the college/university level for 5+ years.

In between, I’ve been CTO and founder of startups, a lead dev, consulted with startups and VCs on technology. And more recently, going back to early 2013, I was hired by a prominent bootcamp on the East Coast of the US to write and teach their curriculum through their first couple of cohorts. After that, I left to start Ruby on the Beach.

I’m a Rails dev, going back 8 years, and I’v been a developer for 20+ years. I’ve assembled a great team, and we’ve built something that addresses the problems that I’ve seen in bootcamps, which we should face it, have their flaws. It’s time for rev 2 of the bootcamp idea, and that’s what we’re trying to do.

I hope you’ll take the time to contact us, and set up a time to have your questions answered.

Hi Lizzy,
I haven’t met the founders of this school, so i can’t vouch for them. It’s a new school, so there are no grads. You should contact them and ask them about their credentials and references (for example school owners’ LinkedIn profiles, where you’d be able to connect with their contacts). Act like you are an employer trying to verify a new employee.
Also just to be safe – do not pre-pay anything, you can always make an electronic payment when you’re there.
Please post all your findings/experiences to that school’s page.
Good luck!

Well, this isn’t what you’d call a scalable solution, but the number of bootcamps out there is relatively low, so it might be possible to just take 20/1600 in this case to get an acceptance rate of 1.25%. It would obviously change with year or cohort, but it’s something at least.

i would love to have it on my site, but i have no idea how to get true stats… I didn’t get into one of the schools because there were 1600 applications for 20 spaces in class. any idea how to get those stats?

Hi, i did receive your application, but at the moment we compare only schools that have a physical location. I will make a modification to comparison script in order to compare web schools and then i will publish info about your school. sorry about that.

Hi,

Let me know if you found a bootcamp in South Africa. I’m also looking for a bootcamp in SA, as most university courses are ineffective, compared to what I’m reading about bootcamps.

Sorry, I was traveling and just started a new job. I will try to add your info in a week or so.

email me to info@bootcamps.in

I know that Hack Reactor (ex Catalyst class) received around 750 applications for 20 spaces. It’s way less than 10% and they are one of the most expensive boot camps nowdays.

Originally when I learned of these programming bootcamps I was very excited at the possibility of being totally immersed in a programming culture and geeking out with fellow people aspiring in to break into the tech industry.

Initially I thought the major obstacles would be coming up with the tuition costs, and relocating to the whatever area the bootcamp was being held in.

Now I am beginning to feel like the biggest hurdle will be actually getting accepted to one of these schools.

Some really quick and loose math based on cursory research might go as follows:

A dozen bootcamps with maybe an average of 30 students, roughly 2x a year, so around 720 available spaces throughout the year, with an acceptance rate of maybe 10-20%?

My question to you, and others, and perhaps a new opportunity or area of focus for your website, would be your and others experience during the application process and suggestions on how to get accepted?

I am at a point in life, schooling, and career (or lack thereof as I am currently unemployed with a legacy skill set) that I was really planning to go “ALL IN” with this programming bootcamp idea, and I am a bit dismayed and disheartened at the thought of NOT being accepted or having to wait many months or years to get accepted.

Advice and strategy appreciated!

i will implement it tomorrow

Yes, exactly. I didn’t see that from the page before (I still don’t see it). But it’s clearly very important information.

thanks! Do you mean like this http://www.bootcamps.in/programming/basic-computer-skills/ ?
