"I think my curiosity for technologies and going through the Immersive seemed to stand out [from other applicants].
I don't think I [would have] got[ten] this offer if I didn't go to Code Chrysalis. You guys... I made the best choice in my life!
"With [Code Chrysalis's] help, I was able to receive several job offers, and even negotiated my salary! I am now at a company that pays more than twice the salary of my last company!!! Even now they still ask how my job is going and check in with me often.
If you're thinking about joining, you should do it ASAP."

"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. Also, the class is open to everyone. Highly recommended!"
"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."
A big thank you to Code Chrysalis. I doubled my income after graduating. Now I can eat sandwiches I previously thought were expensive. 😆 This program was tough from day one until the end, but it really helped me grow.
I’m joining @codechrysalisJP’s Intro to Foundations course! There are many older, mid-career folks in my class - I’m so glad that the culture of learning new things has taken root in Japan. 🌞 I’m doing the same. ✨
See if a Code Chrysalis education is right for you.
"I studied computer science in college 10 years back... I thought it would be impossible for me to come back. Then I came to know about CC which changed my life and helped me become a developer which I couldn’t do before. CC curriculum is awesome and highly job focused as opposed to academia. First time in Japan... I got multiple job offers. CC not only teaches you JavaScript but also how to learn new technologies on your own."
"It was definitely worth it without a single doubt! Some key values Code Chrysalis thought how to learn new technologies, to communicate effectively, to never give up on myself and how to deal with failures. Thanks to CC, I became a part of such an amazing and inspiring community! "
