I invited 4 graduates on from a Canadian based coding bootcamp to share their experiences with the program. One thing that I have to say is that programs and even students in Canada seem to portray themselves in a very honest and straightforward way. It's no secret that the educational industry in the US has some work to do in that area. This program also taught Ruby, which is something you don't see all that often. So, of course, we dove into some pros and cons of that. Anyways, enjoy!
