Why People Choose Codefinity

Web Developer

Kwizera Mugisha

The teaching methodology at Codefinity is excellent, and I particularly appreciate how it has prepared me to handle real-world coding problems. Currently, I am delving into Node.js and eagerly anticipate building full-stack projects that integrate all the knowledge I have gained.

Senior Business Analyst

Sherry Barnes-Fox

My first course was 4 hours, I did it in a few days, "nugget-style". The instructions are very clear and easy to understand. There is even a hint to help you get the answer. I love the learning style that is used, it engages me.

Accounts Payable Specialist

Bill Wagner

I have really liked the browser-based lessons that allow me to code within the lesson. The RUN button allows me to test the code I write before submitting for a grade.

IT Support Specialist

Daniel Chinea

I have gained a lot of practical and logical thinking skills, along with patience for myself and confidence in myself that I can learn programming. Years ago, I would have never thought that I could learn programming in any way, shape or form, and I was able to obtain these certifications and skills with Codefinity.

Technology Project Manager

Steve Bruening

The learning was progressive and made it easy to follow along and make progress. I could feel my skills increasing and building on each other as the course went along.

Project Manager

Stephanie Chan

As I went through the first course of the Python track, I liked the way the course was lay out (in easy and digestible modules) with little exercises at the end of each concept.
