I made the jump and hold my time and certificate at Boise CodeWorks as more valuable than my bachelors degree. You will learn more about software development and have more hands on experience than 90% of the computer science graduates in the university. You will be taught how to think differently, work differently, and program at a professional level....
"Keep pushing. You quit your job for a reason, and you graduated from this program. Don’t forget that you do have what it takes. You don’t want to take any job that you won’t enjoy. You did this program to do development. Wait for the perfect job to come to you, because it will."...

Much of my experience in my time at CodeWorks was quite comparable to my experience in basic training, the only difference being instead of my body being pushed, my mind was being pushed. Just like when I joined the military, I had the absolute bare minimum as far as experience went. I could write basic HTML, and knew a little CSS, but that was it. And I discovered just how little I knew really quickly....
