This course enables students to design and build full-stack JavaScript web
applications. Students will learn the fundamentals of programming, with a big emphasis
on battle-tested patterns and best practices. By the end of the course, students will
have the ability to evaluate a problem and select an optimal solution using the
language/framework best suited for a project’s scope.

In addition to technical skills, the course will train students in how to think like a
programmer. Students will learn how to deconstruct complex problems and break
them into smaller modules.

However, the most important skill that students will take away from this course is the
ability to learn. Technology is fast-moving and ever-changing. A good programmer has
a general understanding of the various programming languages and when to use them.

A great programmer understands the fundamental structure and possesses the ability
to learn any new coding language when required.

I think that great programming is not all that dissimilar to great art. Once you start
thinking in concepts of programming it makes you a better person...as does
learning a foreign language, as does learning math, as does learning how to read”.
Jack Dorsey | Founder of Twitter, Founder & CEO of Square

Alumni program
After your graduation at Ironhack, you will become part of a passionate community
named Ironhackers!

At Ironhack, we developed an alumni program that is based on offering our alumni all
that is needed to ensure them the following:

CONTINUOUS LEARNING
This is an industry of change, not stagnancy. Our alumni learned this through our
bootcamps, and with the alumni program we offer them opportunities to continue their
learning and keep improving their skills.
Ironhack organizes workshops for alumni and they have a 50% discount or free access,
depending on the type of course.

NETWORKING
This community grows fast. Ironhack events give the chance to all Ironhackers to get
to know each other and connect. Between these regular events, you can find our
Ironbeers and alumni summits, among many others.

COMMUNITY
Cooperation is one of the most important pillars to make any community strong. For
this reason, we created our Alumni Slack channels so they have a way to connect and
share knowledge easily. We also encourage our alumni to register in our Buddy
Program by mentioning new students and to cooperate together to build new projects.

SOME OTHER BENEFITS

Finding co-founders for new projects between Ironhack Alumni.

Sharing contacts between Ironhackers to help open doors to interesting companies.

Great discounts on your future courses with Ironhack & Tech- events.

FAQ’S
Is it actually possible to learn all of this in just 6 months while
having a full-time job?
Yes, it is! As long as you put in the work, we’ll be there to help you along the way and
make it a reality. Come prepared, work hard, put in extra time… and you’ll be amazed as
to what you’ll have accomplished while in bootcamp.

But, can’t I learn this content online?

It’s possible. However, for most of us, learning to code can be challenging without
proper mentorship and support. In fact, most of our students have tried self-study first
but have realized it wasn’t the right path for them.
With the resources, teachers, and peers that Ironhack provides, we’re confident that
you’ll have all the tools necessary to keep you motivated and help you reach your goals!

How do you reconcile the knowledge gap between students with

different technical levels?
Completing the prework is mandatory and it’s our way to make sure that everyone has
the same foundational knowledge. Having said that, some people will move faster than
others, but that’s totally okay! Our curriculum is designed in such a way that there is
some flexibility for those that are moving faster and those that need a bit more
personalized attention.

How many hours per week will I be working?

You will have 13 hours of class per week. 3 hours in the evening twice a week and 7
hours on Saturdays.

However, once the class is over, we expect you to take some time (at least 10 hours
more per week) to review the lessons, finish the exercises or work on your project.
