Nucamp Coding Bootcamp Review - The Affordable Coding Bootcamp
Dec 08, 2020 Season 1 Episode 22
Don / Krystal Adeoye, Blaine Young, Jeremy Rapp

I invited a few graduates on to talk about their experience at Nucamp. At less than $2000, this coding bootcamp is probably the cheapest coding bootcamp that I've reviewed so far. The target audience definitely seems to be focused on working professionals that are looking for a low-cost entry into the software engineering industry. Towards the end, you'll also get to hear me go off on a rant and squash bad advice that came from a huge personality in the developer community. Don't ever be afraid to make a mistake as a developer. Just don't make the same mistake twice.. Enjoy!
