Student Testimonials
I joined Get Coding last year while working in the seasonal construction industry. With the flexibility of the program and the knowledgeable team, I was able to turn a new found passion into a career. I was able to learn at my pace, and get back what I put into my training; which I could not have gotten from another program. I would highly recommend Get Coding to anyone wishing to get personalized experience in the tech industry.
If I could only choose two words to describe Get Coding they would be “Life changing”. For eight years, I was stuck in a job that, I didn't enjoy. The flexibility of Get Coding gave me the opportunity to change that. Looking back, I can honestly say that joining Get Coding was one of the best decisions I've ever made. The experience has been truly life-changing, and I'm grateful every day for the skills and opportunities that I gained.
I have learned more than I have from any other program or school. I came into the program with no knowledge of Software Development or where to begin.
Get Coding really helped me to launch my career in tech! I was able to learn at my own pace and work on building real projects from day one. Having the opportunity to work one-on-one with industry mentors was also very valuable. For anyone who is looking for a way to get started in tech, I recommend you check out the Get Coding program!
Get Coding is a game changer. At the core, it’s a hands on education under skilled industry professionals in a fascinating field of work. The 1-on-1 coaching model offered me the flexibility to balance life & a full time job while building projects that sparked my interest. If you’re looking for the tools to launch your career in software development, I can’t recommend Get Coding enough.

Get Coding is an amazing and welcoming group! The program allows you to learn at your own time from experienced coaches, who actually work in the industry. I loved that the program is tailored to you and your experiences and goals. You get to pick your own projects and work with coaches that are knowledgeable in that area. I would 100% recommended this program to anyone looking to make the switch into the tech field.
The flexibility & being able to choose each project you build during the program was amazing. I would not be where I am today without the wonderful coaches & program that Get Coding offers. I can't recommend it enough!
I started with Get Coding while working in the Alberta construction industry, having never before written a line of code. After one year, I've landed a job as a software developer, and have been able to move back home to Newfoundland. This transition was only possible thanks to the invaluable direction and knowledge of the coaches I worked with. I cannot recommend Get Coding highly enough to anybody who wishes to take the step into tech!
I found what made it all work was the ability to do it on my own time, I wasn't in the position to drop everything and go back to school, I needed my job to support my family, so Get Coding made it possible to learn this new skill and continue to work. All in all, it was a life changing experience and I couldn't be happier with where my career is now, and where it is headed!
