Why students love us.

I loved Code Chrysalis! I'm so happy I joined because it filled a lot of the gaps in my knowledge and gave me a lot of practice. I wish it was longer because [the program] passed way too fast.

Ania Nakayama
Software Engineer

Foundations gave me the structure that I needed to learn how to code. The course both supported and challenged me and, more importantly, taught me how to ask questions & search for answers effectively. I left the program with a good understanding of JavaScript, a ton of new friends, and a lot more confidence!

Katherine Ono
Communication Consultant

I didn't have any experience with coding. But I met fantastic instructors and motivated friends here. I have really enjoyed the course and finally, I could join the Immersive Bootcamp. If I didn't take the class, I would not be here.

Nao Arimura
Software Engineer
