Sabio launched in the summer of 2013 to help smart and highly-motivated individuals become exceptional Software Engineers. We began with an Open House in July 13, 2013, and then in August we began our very first in-person PreWork class, which was 4 hours of Intro to Coding, and laptop setup during Saturdays at the Hub in Downtown LA. These first classes were run by our CTO and Co-Founder Gregorio Rojas.

Fast forward to 2019, and Sabio is excited to announce the launch of a completely online, self-paced PreWork course for those looking to begin a coding bootcamp. Our hope is that you will get to know the entire Sabio team, and hopefully decide to join us; however, the topics covered are intended to help everyone learn many amazing Web Development Fundamentals.

The cool thing about the Sabio Online PreWork Course is that it was created by a coding bootcamp founder and operator: Gregorio Rojas. As I mentioned earlier Gregorio Rojas has been training people in a structured setting for over 6 years. He took all of his learning of interacting with over 1,000 people in-person and created this online course to help the next 100,000 people learn to code.

Here are a couple of the key benefits of the Sabio Online PreWork Course:

  • 100% Self Paced
  • 6 Hours of Live Office Hours with a Tech Professional Per Week
  • Learn to Code using real code files instead of “play code files” on Code Pen
  • Support from a community of people that are also learning how to code
  • No Trolls and No Rabbit Wholes, Real People Helping Others
  • Advanced Concepts like Null Check and DOM manipulation
  • Created by an Education and Technical Professional (not a “curriculum writer” that has never worked in tech)
  • Exceptionally affordable — $99
Live Office Hours via Zoom Held Twice Per Week

The goal of Sabio’s Coding Bootcamp prep course was to be 100% online so that everyone who is motivated and dedicated could have all the tools needed to successfully launch a career in tech.

The class covers nine different primary concepts that are essential in web development:

  • The Automated Tests
  • HTML, CSS & Developer Tools
  • HTML & CSS with Bootstrap
  • JavaScript Fundamentals — Objects & Functions
  • JavaScript Functions & Control Flow
  • jQuery Api
  • Event Handlers
  • Arrays
  • Templating

The PreWork Course also comes with an “add-on” course → Chrome Developer Tools.

Professional Software Engineers must be able to use tools in the development of software applications. At Sabio we introduce you to this practice Day 1.

I have to confess, the course is rigorous; however, you have a Chief Technical Officer, Gregorio Rojas, guiding you through each and every lesson. And when you get stuck, and you need help, you can hop on the Sabio Candidates Slack Group, post your question, and someone will help you.

Watch Real Tech Professional Code During Live Office Hours

One of the things that happens with many people that want to join a coding bootcamp is that they begin to play with code and interact with other people that are on a similar path.

Finding Community Is Great — > However……

What can happen is that when two people that only know a small amount about a subject get together and they may get stumped and confused, and eventually, one of them might think “This coding thing is not for me”.

At Sabio we want to find highly-motivated and dedicated people that want to learn these skills and transition into a professional role as a software engineer.

That is why our online PreWork course comes with BOTH the beauty of a self-paced class, where you can begin any day, at any time, code from any location with a laptop or a desktop.

AND…….

We give you two opportunities per week to actually code with a tech professional. Either Gregorio Rojas or Jitin Jaitly will be on Zoom twice per week for up to 7 hours answering your questions.

(For those of you that do not know about Zoom, it is this marvelous video conference app that allows you to hear, see and interact with up to 20 people in real time. All you need is access to Wifi and its app, which you can download here.)

This is awesome!

This is exactly what #codenewbies need. A professional that knows what they are doing to help you during these early days of your coding journey.

If you purchase our 100% online class, give it time and your best effort and you hate it, simply email me liliana at sabio dot la and I will personally process your refund.
