FAQ

Your questions answered

To become a successful Web Developer, you need a combination of soft and technical skills. All of these essential skills are taught in Le Wagon’s Web Development bootcamp. 
On the soft skills side, adaptability is crucial for navigating the dynamic and fast-paced tech industry. Being an independent learner and possessing excellent problem-solving abilities are also important. Additionally, a genuine interest in learning new technologies and strong communication skills will help you collaborate effectively with team members and stakeholders. 
On the technical side, proficiency in HTML, CSS, and JavaScript is essential, as these are the foundational languages for web development. Familiarity with Ruby, as well as a solid understanding of UX/UI principles, is also important. Furthermore, knowledge of web development frameworks, APIs, and databases will enhance your capabilities. 
With these skills, a Web Developer can create responsive and visually appealing websites, maintain and update existing ones, and continuously improve their craft to remain relevant in the ever-evolving tech landscape.

Yes, certain cities offer financing options through local partners, including deferred tuition plans, student loans, and Income Share Agreements (ISA). For detailed information, visit the Le Wagon website or reach out to a local admission manager.

You need to be 18 to enroll for the course. However, you can apply if you are 17 as long as you turn 18 before the start of the bootcamp.

You will learn the essential skills to create responsive and adaptable web applications that work well on any device, including mobile. However, our curriculum doesn’t focus specifically on iOS, Android or Windows Phone development. Instead, we focus on the fundamentals of programming and web development - key skills that serve as the backbone of software engineering and are valuable in any tech role

Through modules on Responsive Web Design, you'll master techniques that ensure your web applications display seamlessly on mobile screens. Additionally, you’ll learn to create powerful APIs, a critical component of mobile app development. This means that if you decide to build mobile apps in the future, you'll have a solid foundation to collaborate effectively with mobile developers, who can take the APIs you've built and use them to create a native mobile interface.

In short, Le Wagon prepares you with the versatile skills needed to succeed in web and mobile-ready development environments, empowering you to expand into mobile app development when you're ready.

Tuition fees are tailored to each location, reflecting local cost of living and economic factors, ensuring accessibility across cities. For exact pricing and available payment options, visit the course page for your chosen city on Le Wagon’s website. Here, you can explore various financing options, including deferred payment plans, student loans, and, in some locations, Income Share Agreements (ISAs), making it easier to pursue your tech education and start your new career without financial barriers.

Here’s what you need to know about technical prerequisites for each bootcamp: 
  • Web Development: No technical background is required. We look for motivated, curious, and social students. If this describes you, you’re ready to apply and complete the selection process. 
  • Data Science & AI: Requires basic programming and math knowledge: 
    • Programming: Familiarity with data types, conditions, loops, functions, and data structures (arrays and dictionaries) in any language like Python, Ruby, or JavaScript. 
    • Mathematics: Comfort with high school-level functions, derivatives, and linear equations. We provide pre-bootcamp resources to help you brush up on linear algebra and statistics. 
  • Data Analytics: Beginner-friendly, with no prerequisites beyond motivation to start your tech journey. 
  • Data Engineering: Beneficial to have foundational skills in programming, databases, and data infrastructure. Successful data engineers often blend these technical skills with strong soft skills to solve complex data challenges. This bootcamp provides hands-on training to help you build or deepen these skills, whether you’re starting fresh or seeking advanced expertise.

Yes, Le Wagon’s online bootcamps are eligible to be fully or partially funded, depending on your country of residence and if you meet the criteria for funding support. To find out what options are available, simply select your country on our Bootcamp Financing Options page. If you have multiple funding options, our admissions team will assist you in choosing the best one during your admissions interview. If you have any questions or need more information about local funding options, feel free to reach out to our admissions team at online@lewagon.org.

The bootcamp is primarily taught in English in most cities. In French cities, the program is conducted in French, with morning lectures and evening live-coding sessions in French, so fluency is necessary to attend in France. In some locations like São Paulo, Shanghai, Chengdu, and Tokyo, sessions are available in local languages (Brazilian Portuguese, Chinese, Japanese). You can verify the language of upcoming batches on the "Apply" page. Regardless of the teaching language, all challenge instructions and documentation are provided in English, so a minimum B2 level in written English is essential for all students. 

Building a strong foundation in programming fundamentals and relational databases is crucial to becoming a versatile software developer or engineer. At Le Wagon, we emphasize the importance of these basics because they’re key to understanding how data-driven applications work in real-world environments.
Before diving into JavaScript, you’ll learn HTML, CSS, Ruby, and SQL, giving you the tools to create robust, data-centric applications. With a solid grasp of relational databases, you’ll gain the confidence to tackle more complex programming challenges and build responsive, interactive web experiences. 
Our hands-on curriculum—covering Ruby on Rails, JavaScript, HTML, CSS, SQL, Git, GitHub, Heroku, Sidekiq, Websockets, OOP, Testing, APIs, Bootstrap, ActiveRecord and more.—ensures you're adaptable across various technologies. This focus on learning foundational skills prepares you to take on new languages and frameworks with ease, enabling you to stay agile in the ever-evolving tech landscape.

AI is transforming web development by boosting efficiency and opening doors to innovative solutions. By automating repetitive tasks, speeding up testing and deployment, and enhancing security, AI enables developers to focus on complex, creative work. This accelerates the development timeline and elevates the quality of web applications, making them more responsive, secure, and user-friendly.

AI also empowers developers to push boundaries, fostering the creation of new products and startups. While AI tools can assist in design and prototyping, skilled developers are essential to bring these ideas to life. Together, AI and human expertise are driving the next wave of creativity and progress in web development.

To apply for a course, start by completing the application form on the Le Wagon website. You’ll need to specify details like your chosen course, preferred format (online or on-campus), city, and your motivation for joining. Once you submit the form, a member of the Le Wagon admissions team will reach out to schedule an interview to discuss your goals and fit for the program.

Absolutely! Our Web Development bootcamp is tailored for beginners, making it accessible to those with no technical background. We believe that anyone can learn to code with the right mix of motivation, curiosity, problem-solving abilities, and logical thinking skills—qualities essential for success in our intensive, hands-on program.

If you’re eager to dive into tech, our admissions process helps ensure that each participant is prepared to make the most of the experience. Once accepted, you’ll join a supportive learning community that will guide you step-by-step through the fundamentals programming, coding and beyond.

Please note that applicants must be at least 18 years old to enroll.

The difference between coding and programming lies in scope: coding focuses on writing instructions in a programming language, while programming involves designing, developing, testing, and maintaining an entire software solution. For more details, check out Le Wagon's blog article.

By the end of the bootcamp, you will have achieved a junior developer level, equipping you to quickly prototype your ideas by creating web applications independently. You will learn how to implement features such as user authentication (including simple sign-in/sign-up options and social logins like Facebook or WeChat), set up an admin back-office, integrate payment systems, automate email sending, and much more. You’ll also gain the skills to deploy applications in production and understand programming best practices used by top tech companies. 
After completing the course, you will have several career options: 
  • Find a Developer job: You can pursue roles as a Front-End Developer, Back-End Developer, Full-Stack Developer
  • Find a tech-related job: Opportunities exist in various positions, such as Product Manager, Solution Engineer, Operations Manager, or Customer Success Manager within startups or tech companies.
