Testimonials

Before I joined GCA, I was completely confused about what software development entailed, I had tried learning on my own severally but I didn’t understand anything.
From the first class at GCA, most of the confusion I had previously was swept away and I began to find it very interesting.
After GCA, the foundation I got from GCA made me feel very confident and I was able to go on learning on my own. I’m currently a Software Engineer @ Venture Garden Nigeria.

I’d already started learning the basics of HTML and CSS, but wasn’t getting anywhere, I needed a challenge, some training and guidance to point me in the right direction. Girlcode Academy provided that. They laid the foundation to where I am today in web development. I’m currently a Front end developer at Longbridge tech. Very strong with vue.js and fair knowledge of angular and react.

Prior to attending the GirlCode boot camp, I had zero knowledge of web development or what a career in tech entailed. However, the boot camp curriculum exposed me to different topics in web development and with the help of different mentors, I was amply prepared for a career in tech. Through the boot camp, I got an internship position at Venture Garden Group, where I now work as a Front-end Engineer.
