re: Thinkful, we have a rigorous, full-time program that matches your definition of "online classroom" as well as a flexible program for those who can only commit part-time. Both offer 1-on-1 mentorship, with stats available on CIRR.org.

OP - you're welcome to ping me (bhaumik@thinkful[dot]com) w/ any specific questions. I run the full-time product.




It looks like an interesting setup, but the requirement to provide email in order to view the syllabus is offputting.


Ya I agree it’s annoying. Will flag this with our marketing team.

We teach the MERN stack with some CS theory (basic data structures & algorithms). There’s also a heavy focus on building so your portfolio pieces will start with wireframes and end with deployment and code reviews.


Thank you for the update! I would like to edit my original comment to state that both are available, but comments are only editable for a short time. Here's an upvote!


Np! Just went through a rebrand to make that a bit clearer. Btw excited to see Harsh build a great team and lead HR, he was great to work with while at MakerSquare :)


Any possibility Thinkful will support payment through the G.I. Bill in the future?


Realistically, that’s looking like a 2019 goal but yes we’d love to offer that fincancial support. We currently offer partial scholarships to veterans for both products.


Thanks. I'd enroll in a heartbeat if I were able to put my remaining GI Bill benefits towards it today.
