Hear from our
Learners
"Initially, when I joined Crio, I thought it would be
like BootCamp programs. But after joining, I
really liked the way Crio had organised the
Sonali
Dash program..It’s not at all like typical classroom-
based training. You have to do it on your own.”

“Enrolling for Crio’s programs proved to be a master

stroke for me. It started from the basics and after
every completed module, I saw myself making a big
stride forward. I learnt a lot by implementing my Venkata
Amaresh
learnings in a work-like environment.”

“I did internships in a few companies and then

worked full-time. While working, I realised there
was some gap between what I learned and what I
Chakradhar D
was trying to do. Crio helped me bridge that gap.”

 “The reason I chose Crio over other programs
was- other platforms give us videos where you
have to watch and learn, and do it on your own.
Myleshan
Praburam But here at Crio, there’s no watch and learn.
There’s only DO and learn.”

“In most of the courses, you go through online

classes and then do some problems, but this is
completely DIFFERENT. A duration of six months
is really long and, if you put effort, you can Namrata
change your whole life, let alone switch from one Kumari
company to another."

“If you are passionate about building software,

you will love Crio’s programs...In every interview, I
was asked about my Crio Projects. Because of the
Sagar
Vrajalal way I worked on these projects, I was confident
about my answers.”
