Woz U is a company founded by Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak that focuses on technical education for independent students, offers curriculum to universities and organizations to upskill their employee.
This program is not a new product developed by Woz and team. It appears to be a licensing gimmick with http://www.scitexas.edu/ which, no one here would be up-voting and signing up for a software dev course from that website.
Do your research before you give your phone number to scam artists.
Pros:None, nothing new/unique
Cons:Does not appear to actual involve Woz in any way, just his name.
I was interested in signing up with these guys and went through the application process. It was a pretty relaxed application process and I got accepted within the first phone call. I was a bit sketched out about how fast they wanted me to sign up and pay. They kepy saying the class started Oct 30 when that was two weeks away and I should pay soon etc. I eventually just stopped accepting calls because they would call me at work (I work nights and specifically said don't call that time.) Did further research and found out they where cold calling veterans trying to get them to sign up. Thanks but after all that I'm ok.
Pros:Didn't really have any
Cons:Uses Woz's name thats it, cold calls you twice a day pressuring for decision
Looked through uninformative Website.
I was extremely surprised Wozniak put his name on something so anti-tech.
Pros:Nothing
Cons:Missing PHP. Missing Perl. Missing *NIX
I originally signed up with Woz for full stack development with a focus on Ruby on Rails. My biggest problem with Woz is that I signed up for Ruby but I was placed unknowingly into Javascript with no consent on my end or notification. The mentors and/or other staff i spoke with about this during my time essentially told me to shove it when I approached them regarding this issue. The content was decent. I felt that they threw the code at us not caring if we understood what was going on. I feel like I spent 33+ weeks to learn how to code and spent 7+ grand on it when googling would have been better. Other than weekly meetings with your mentor it was like pulling teeth to get mentors help when i started. Now this did improve towards the end with Woz tenfold. Another problem I had was they referenced wikipedia multiple times. It seemed like the content was written with 1 persons learning style in mind. I also graduated with a 3.7 gpa? somewhere around there and I can tell you right now I am not anywhere close to being a professional dev as I didn't retain as much as the information as I really felt i should have. If i was given the chance to go back I would have taken the free alternative of freecodecamp over anything woz has to offer. That being said I do think they have the potential to be the best paid code camp out there. There just has to be tweeks from top to bottom.
Pros:It was online which was nice
Cons:see the tell us more box
I haven't been to any of the online classes but I downloaded and installed the app from the app store. It turns out i'm supposed to be a developer!
Pros:fun times
Cons:not sure
