What Boot Camp Alumni Are Saying:

  • “I was recruited by [a major employer] not long after graduating the program. They found me via Career Services, and I absolutely love my job now. I have greater financial freedom and flexibility in my work schedule. I am so grateful.” Jaqueline H.

  • “I knew I needed to go into a different career, and I had been teaching for 9 years. I stopped and took time off because I was miserable. I enjoyed coding, and the OSU boot camp fit into my life perfectly. I was able to get a job very quickly afterward, and I am now a full-time engineer.” Mindy R.

  • “The 1:1 career coaching was incredibly valuable. My coach was there to guide me and answer any questions that I had. She helped me to identify and communicate my strengths and position myself in the employment market successfully. I appreciate the guidance she offered and the seemingly never-ending resources that were shared with me. She was not only very knowledgeable, but also generous, kind, and supportive throughout the entire process.” Kelli K.

  • “I chose to attend this boot camp in particular because it focused on the skills I wanted to master, it was part-time, and was backed by the credibility of OSU. After taking the program, I feel much more knowledgeable about web development and confident to begin working in the field not only because of the skills that I’ve acquired but also due to the experience of working with others.” James G.

  • “I was recruited by [a major employer] not long after graduating the program. They found me via Career Services, and I absolutely love my job now. I have greater financial freedom and flexibility in my work schedule. I am so grateful.” Jaqueline H.
