Actualize is a Chicago-based coding bootcamp. They also offer a live-online bootcamp for people outside of the Chicago area. Their approach emphasizes instructor-led learning and peer interaction.

The bootcamp is preceded by 4 weeks of individual prep work, during which students watch pre-recorded videos, complete exercises, and receive feedback from TAs. After these 4 weeks of self-paced learning, the next 12 weeks consist of regularly scheduled classes, either in-person or on video-call.

Students can choose from a daytime (Monday through Friday) course or an Evenings and Weekends option that would be ideal for someone with a 9-to-5 job or other daytime commitments.
