“Deciding to enroll in the Claim Academy’s full stack Java program was the best investment I ever made. It was affordable, and only a 12 week program. The instructors were very knowledgeable and even made themselves available to us outside of class hours.
After only my fourth week of classes, I got a job offer and am now working full-time as a Java Developer. My salary almost doubled from my last job, and I love going to work every day! It was only 3 months ago that I started dreaming of a new career, and a new life. Thanks to Claim Academy, that dream is now my every day reality.”

“Claim Academy garnered my interest with a series of bold promises; they would teach me to code, get me a well paying job in the Saint Louis community, and refine the skills I need to succeed in the current market. While skeptical at first, I toiled through the program which gave us an ample environment to succeed. At the end of my twelve week course I am satisfied with Claim’s claims and am personally recommending the course to friends and family.”

“My experience at Claim Academy has been one of the best in my life. While at Claim, I gained a world-class experience in computer programming. We worked on many small assignments that lead to a capstone project. I had access to great teachers and resources. We were challenged daily. In addition to learning the front end and back end of programming we also learned soft skills and how to present ourselves to companies. We had a well rounded education. I would recommend Claim to anyone who is ready to be challenged and succeed in computer programming. Also we had access to many companies ready to hire throughout our time there.“
