"I changed careers in late 2016 from banking to software development. I started off with basic knowledge of HTML, CSS and a bit of Javascript. When I go my first job, I was overwhelmed by the fact that they were using Java with MySQL in the Backend. I had never used this stack before and was barely able to understand what a "Class" was. Your courses in SQL and OOP with Java helped me immensely to navigate the codebase. I could finally "see" the implemented patterns and understand and write my own SQL queries. From then on, I was able to start pumping out features. Fast forward a few years and I am now a Senior Developer. Thank you so much for your courses! It helped me to keep motivated and grow as a developer."

"I used Job Ready Programmer to greatly improve my SQL skills and learn new Tableau skills for my current Data Analyst career. I intend to utilize the Java and other courses as I transition my career into a Full Stack Developer."

"I wanted to take a moment to share my feedback on the Oracle course I completed under your guidance. The course has been an invaluable experience for me, significantly contributing to my professional growth and enhancing my abilities in the SQL ecosystem. First and foremost, the course provided me with a comprehensive understanding of the database technology stack. From the fundamentals to the advanced concepts, I appreciated the structured approach taken in delivering the course material. The clarity and depth of the content allowed me to grasp complex topics with ease, filling gaps in my knowledge and empowering me to tackle real-world challenges more effectively. In conclusion, I am immensely grateful for the course and the impact it has had on my workplace and career. Once again, thank you for providing such an enriching learning experience. I highly recommend this course to anyone seeking to enhance their Oracle expertise and achieve professional growth."

"JRP was a huge help. The beginning where you separated the 2 routes (Analyst vs. Engineer) helped users sift through what they needed to learn. I first wanted to go analyst, which I used to land a job as a Business Analyst at a top fashion company. This showed me how to use SQL and some Python, from start to finish. What I mean by that is you gave clear instructions in a calm voice, on how to get started from scratch (IDE setup, fundamentals, and providing simple case studies). What was REALLY helpful was that you would constantly provide little caveats/hints/tips that only a seasoned engineer/analyst would know. This is very important. I then started your engineer route, and although I did not stick fully through that like I did the analyst route, it was a huge help in getting started with code and its fundamentals as well. I was able to create my own mini-projects, then finally graduated to implementing distributed systems and creating more projects. Finally, with the push from your courses, I started grinding Leetcode to prepare for interviews. The tl;dr here is that your content holds the user's hand early, provides challenging questions for a beginner, and gives information that they wouldn't be able to easily find otherwise on the internet unless they specifically knew what they were asking. In fact, I still to this day refer your jobreadyprogrammer courses to friends who are interested in getting into the programming/analyst route."

You can’t learn programming from reading books or online fill-in-the-blank type tutorials. Especially the online tutorials with browser based exercises where you code directly in your browser. The problem with that approach is that it doesn’t provide practical experience. It provides an illusion of learning something as it tugs you along to complete an assignment that’s more of a fill-in-the-blank type problem. A student feels like they’ve learned something but that knowledge does not stick. Unfortunately that experience will not help in an interview nor an actual project. Valuable time ends up going to complete waste. At JRP (JobReadyProgrammer), we don’t follow hype. We do what works! We take a traditional route to teaching how to code advancing slowly & patiently in the lectures often repeating key concepts in multiple different ways to help students really solidify the knowledge and mold their foundation to discover how to code properly and then boy do we test the skills! Students are put right in the middle of a practical real-world programming assignment to apply everything they've learned. So enough of those “key in the next few commands to fill in the puzzle and we’ll advance you” kind of tutorials. Here you’ll need to roll up your sleeves and get to work on solving practical programming assignments. This site offer’s a chance to gain practical experience you can take to your interview and feel confident in your abilities. Every assignment is followed by a detailed video solution breaking down the problem and going over the answer step-by-step so you really get it!
