Student Reviews

Jessie - coding bootcamp testimonial | The Jump

Jessie, from Architect to Full-Stack Software Engineer

I loved my experience at the Jump. I found that everyone at the Jump was incredibly supportive and had a lot of time for me.

I definitely couldn’t have got the job I ended up with without the Jump.

I would recommend anyone thinking about doing a bootcamp to arrange a call with Rob and find out about the Jump.

Stuart coding bootcamp testimonial | The Jump

Stuart, from IT support to Full-Stack Software Engineer

I really enjoyed my course with The Jump and the things that I learnt meant I managed to get a job a few months after graduation!

Compared to other bootcamps, The Jump seemed to have quite small classes meaning if you needed any support it was readily available. James and Russell always had time for me if needed and seemed genuinely invested in making sure I got the best out of my time with them.

...if you put in the effort you'll get a lot out. I would recommend it!

Freddie coding bootcamp testimonial | The Jump

Freddie, from Professional Sportsman to Software Engineer

The Jump is a fantastic school that from day 1 had my best interest in mind.

They are a family run business ...which made for a great learning experience. The full time course is very full on ... but our instructor Russell was alway there to help with anything. I could always jump on a quick call when I was stuck.

I highly recommend this course!

Why choose a coding bootcamp with The Jump?

As a family run school, our focus is on you not shareholders, and our whole purpose is to help you make the jump into tech. That's why:

We teach you in-demand tech like JavaScript, React and Node, not stagnating tech like Ruby

— Your instructor will be a senior developer with 15+ years of experience, rather than a recent bootcamp grad

We keep our classes small rather than having 150 in a cohort, so we can give you all the 1-2-1 support you need

— We make our bootcamps easier to access with both full-time and part-time options, lower tuition fees, and remote access from anywhere

FAQ's about coding bootcamps

Is a coding bootcamp worth it?

Not all coding bootcamps are equal. It's only worth it if it helps you achieve a level of technical skill that you couldn't achieve on your own, or it helps you achieve it significantly faster than you could without it. The value of a coding bootcamp with The Jump is firstly that you're going to learn the commercially relevant tech that the industry wants you to know now, to a professional standard, faster than if you go self-taught, and secondly in the career-change support.

How much is a coding bootcamp?

The cost of a coding bootcamp can vary significantly in price. For example, on Sat 2nd May 2022 the following bootcamps were priced roughly as follows:

Flatiron: $17,900 (Online Software Engineering)
CodeWorks: £11,800 (12-week Software Engineering Immersive)
General Assembly: £9,000 / Remote $15,950 (Software Engineering Immersive Online (Flex))
Makers: £8,500 to be paid prior to your start date (12-week onsite course (plus pre-work))
Le Wagon: £8,500 (Online Flexible) / £7,400 (Online / on campus 9-week Full-Time or 24-week part-time Web Development course)

The Jump:

  • £7,500 for our Software Engineering Course (both part-time (30 weeks) and Full-time (12 weeks)

  • £4,999 for our JavaScript Course (19.5 weeks part-time)
  • £7,000 for our DevOps Course (20 weeks part-time)

All of The Jump's coding bootcamps can be paid in instalments and our we also offer a range of additional 3rd party finance options to suit you.

(For up-to-date information on the cost of coding bootcamps run by aforementioned schools, please visit their websites)

Will a coding bootcamp get you a job?

You can absolutely make the jump into the industry as a developer - as students at The Jump have demonstrated - but attending a coding bootcamp does not guarantee you a job. As the saying goes, there are only two guarantees in life: death and taxes.

If a bootcamp guarantees you a job, you should definitely ask:

  1. What their definition of a job is
  2. What duration you are guaranteed to be employed for
  3. What you'll actually be doing in the job that they are guaranteeing
  4. How much the job pays
  5. Under what circumstances that guarantee is valid or not.

How much do coders and DevOps Engineers make?

London averages per role and platform:

Adzuna: DevOps Engineer: £88.7k / JavaScript Developer £75.7k

CWJobs: DevOps Engineer: £77.5k / JavaScript Developer £70k

Glassdoor: DevOps Engineer: £60.3k / JavaScript Developer £64.7k

Jobsite: DevOps Engineer: £77.5k / JavaScript Developer £72.5k

Tech Nation: Average non-tech salaries ~£35K, Average tech salaries £62K (~80% higher than non-tech salaries.)

Do companies hire coding bootcamp graduates?

Yes, absolutely. Yes, absolutely, as our grads are testament to.

The UK has a shortage of tech skills. Students of The Jump who have chosen to find new developer roles have realised how closely our syllabus matches what the market is looking for.

Can you fail a coding bootcamp?

The Jump has a policy that we won’t leave you behind on any of our coding bootcamps, providing you are putting the effort in to learn. We recognise that people learn in different ways and at different speeds, so we’ll work just as hard as you to get you to where you want to be.

Are coding bootcamps for beginners?

Of the four different coding bootcamps that The Jump runs - Software Engineering, Web Development, JavaScript, and DevOps - only the JavaScript and DevOps Bootcamps requires pre-existing knowledge.

Does coding require math?

If you dreaded maths at school, then don’t worry, there is very little maths that you need to know and our coding bootcamps will go over the basics that you need. The kind of maths that you use will be percentages (e.g. what percentage of the viewport’s width do you want an element to be), comparisons (e.g. is something more than, less than or equal to something else), basic addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.

How long does a coding bootcamp take?

The training for most bootcamps lasts around 12-weeks full-time but The Jump runs all of our programmes part-time and some of them full-time:

Part-Time:
Software Engineering: 30 weeks
Web Developer: 24 weeks
JavaScript: 19.5 weeks
DevOps: 20 weeks

Full-Time:
Software Engineering: 12 weeks
Web Developer: 9 weeks

Do you need a degree for a coding bootcamp?

Nope - you don’t need one to become a developer so you don’t need one to join our coding bootcamps. The only requirements we have are:

Commitment: That you’ll put in the effort to learn and practice what we’re teaching you.
English: That you can understand English to a level that allows you to understand the concepts we’re explaining
Learning difficulties and colour blindness: That you let us know in advance so we can understand your needs.
