Best part-time coding bootcamp

Codesmith has a part time remote cohort that I would look into as well. M-Th 5-8pm PT Sat 9am-3pm PT and takes 9 months. EDIT: Sorry I mis-read the comment about Europe and these times likely do not work haha.

I don't think Codesmith is a notch above the rest, but it's absolutely one of the top bootcamps to consider. I've posted before about the reasons for why they effective relative to other top bootcamps but to repeat: 1. Higher barrier of entry, similar to how ivy league schools have good outcomes, the entry bar matters. It's not the only reason obviously, and the teaching has to be great, but it's a factor. 2. Codesmith resumes are crafted to turn 12 weeks (full time) of curriculum into a resume that looks like someone with about 1 year of work experience, and omitting Codesmith from the resume, which helps get more interviews than other bootcamp grads as their resumes appear strong. This is a more controversial point. Some people see this as misleading, others see it as a means to an ends as long as you can do well on the job. You'll find extremely strong opinions on both sides on Reddit. Another argument that has been made is that the projects are so internse that they should count for more than projects at other bootcamps. 3. Very committed and involved alumni network. Almost all the teaching staff at Codesmith from TAs to senior instructors to lead instructors when through Codesmith themselves, and a bunch of alumni still work part time for Codesmith doing classes. It's a tight community that stays involved even after they get jobs and is very supportive and helpful for referrals.

If you don't have prior experience and haven't done intense self teaching either, then I suggest FT over PT if you have the choice. But if you have a job or other life circumstances and can't do FT then PT is totally fine.
