Will My Completed Courses Be Accounted for in the New Full Stack Course?

Hey fCC Gang,

I’ve been learning to code for the past two months and wanted to share a bit of my journey. I started out solving JavaScript exercises for a bootcamp called NorthCoders. However, when I got to the last exercise, I realized my coding skills needed more polishing—and that’s when I discovered freeCodeCamp!

Since then, I’ve been dedicating 4–6 hours a day to coding. My schedule includes working through freeCodeCamp’s HTML curriculum, building my own projects, and completing JavaScript exercises at night. It’s been an incredible experience, and I’m almost finished with both the HTML and JavaScript sections.

I’m now planning to start the Full Stack Development course soon. Will the courses I’ve already completed in HTML and JavaScript be accounted for within the new Full Stack curriculum, or will I need to redo them?

Thanks in advance for the clarification! I’m super excited to keep progressing. :blush:

The Full Stack course will include content from the older courses, but re-designed to (hopefully) be more effective. Because there isn’t a direct 1 to 1 mapping of old lessons to new ones, the new course will not mark off HTML lessons just because you’ve done the other HTML course (etc). You can, however, skip any lessons that cover concepts that you already understand well.

if you check the full stack curriculum you can see if things you have already completed count for that, if you completed things that count for the Full Stack, you would see them already completed there

Will I still get the certificate if I do this?

if you complete the Full Stack course you will be able to get the certification for it, note that there is a lot of stuff for it but it’s not completed yet
