Data Analytics Reviews

The course covers higly relevant areas in Python, SQL, and Machine Learning. They start out with the fundamentals, but very quickly reach an advanced level, and they cover much more topics than I ever thought, it is a great coverage of areas. There is basically always a teacher available if/when you need help. The teachers also put good emphasis on creating an inclusive environment in the class, and with various social activities (lunches, some after-works, and a couple of bigger social gatherings (one of which was with Alumni))  we got a great connection in the group which provides with a social and fun atmosphere among the participants during the boot-camp. 

This 10-weeks bootcamp has been an amazing experience and I enjoyed every minute of it! My background was that of a pure bench scientist but now I can independently analyze my own big data sets using python, which has been a challenge before. I previously had almost no coding experience, but I'm amazed by how much I learned within that short amount of time.The curriculum covered basic python, SQL, machine learning and data analysis and visualization. I specifically liked that we were allowed to choose our own topics for the many mini-projects and I could immediately apply my new skills to my actual work field or own data.I can only recommend it to anyone - people who want to advance their skills for their current work and people looking to change careers!

You will learn a lot of skills that are useful right now in the field of data analytics. Programming in Python, SQL and Machine learning are the main skills acquired but they also help you with your resume and LinkedIn profile to help you get noticed more if you still want to pursue this career path. You will spend more than 40 hrs. per week learning as you will most often need to work on things at home so be sure you have the time and no other commitments as this will take most of your time. As a working professional with family it was hard to put this first but you need to in order to understand and truly absorb the information. Also the group of people at camp were very generous with helping one another and this contributed to a family feeling when I was far away from home.

I found the bootcamp to be a very rewarding experience. The curriculum is broad and intense, covering a lot of ground in Python using libraries like Pandas, NumPy and Scikit learn. On top of that there is a fair amount of statistics and SQL which serves as a great foundation to build further upon. The teachers where very commited and the small class size makes assistance easy. Plus for being located on södermalm!

My 10 weeks experience with the Nod Coding Bootcamp was amazing. It is very beginner friendly. Before attending the Bootcamp it took me forever to handle tables and data using Python because I spent a lot of time googling. Now I can handle data easily without checking the documentation at all (basic data overview, EDA, and visualization). Teachers are nice and fun. It was very intensive and I was tired every day but it was very amazing that at the end of the course I found I learned incredibly much.

I found NOD shortly after moving to Sweden from Asia, where I'd just completed my secondary education. My goal of attending the Bootcamp was to broaden my skillset and become better equipped and prepared for my university studies, although I'd never written a single line of code before that point. I'm happy to say that NOD has surpassed my expectations, allowing me to become highly proficient in a plethora of programming skills, such as SQL, Python, Seaborn, and Machine learning, just to name a few. In my opinion, what makes NOD so special and unique is the passion of the instructors and the effective student/teacher ratio (0.5 teachers per student!). I was able to have consistent 1 on 1 sessions with the instructors, who would explain the concepts with patience and passion.Overall, highly recommend it. Great teaching, great value, great atmosphere.

Nod Bootcamp provides an excellent 10 week long educational program in Data Analysis.  With a well-balanced mix of theory and application the bootcamp offers great opportunity to learn an incredible amount of theory, tools and techniques within a very short time frame.  This bootcamp helped me adopt an analytic mindset and greatly improved my ability to independently and in a structured way conduct scientific inquiry well beyond my previous capacity. I would highly recommend this bootcamp to anyone who is interested in data analytics, regardless of any prior experience.

I found Nod during my move to Stockholm from the US, after I decided to use the move as an opportunity to make a career shift from digital marketing into data analytics using Python and SQL. My goal was to land a new job in Stockholm where I could continue advancing this new analytics coding skillset, but also work in digital marketing. I also didn’t want to have a long unemployment gap, so my plan was to get hired as quickly as possible after the bootcamp.As I write this review, we’re in our last week of the bootcamp and I’m happy to say that I landed my dream job 4 weeks ago! Just by sharing Nod’s curriculum and what I’d learned to that point, my employer (and other prospective employers) had no concerns about the skillset I’d gain. Gustav, Axel and Nils were also super helpful in talking about Stockholm’s business and recruiting climate, as well as what I was looking for in my specific digital marketing expertise area.If you’re really good at self-education, then maybe taking an online class is okay for you. However, if you’re like me and can never follow-through with online learning to the end; then Nod is for you. There is really something about a hands-on and high teacher-to-student ratio when learning how to both code and understand advanced statistics. And you don’t have to worry about your prior experience in coding or mathematics, because they will cover everything for you. You’ll leave with a solid foundation in Python and its libraries, a legitimate portfolio, and a local Stockholm network in the field. I wish I could do it again!

Time flied during the 10 weeks at Nod. From having little previous knowledge of programming, I can now say confidently that I know Python. Having said that, one can allways become more proficient. I had envisioned that Python would be way more complicated than what it is; it's actually quite logical. From week one you get a good practical setting on what Python is all about.  It's not allways about knowing code by heart which can be quite intimidating as a beginner, and there are many ways to get the same solutions. Now at the end, I have a portfolio which I want to enhance  even more.

This bootcamp is challenging, intense and info-packed but also very rewarding! As I have had friends attending the bootcamp before me, I had high expectations beforehand - all of these were exceeded due to the curriculum being up to date and very balanced. I especially liked the combination of codealongs, labs and projects that challenged the concepts introduced in various ways. I had no prior knowledge in coding before attending the bootcamp, however, after these ten weeks I'm ready to apply for a job as a Data Analyst. During the bootcamp I worked part-time (30%), using mornings, lunches and evenings for meetings, however, this is not something I recommend if you want the full experience and learnings from the bootcamp.

The bootcamp was both a very intense and informative experience. The instructors are young founders and it is quite clear are very passionate about the program.The program is made up of three blocks which lead from Python to Data Analytics to Machine learning in a very structured way. The incubator environment really helped me develop my coding abilities in both code alongs and labs where we practised.A huge shoutout to one of the main instructors, Nils, who patiently helped me 1-1 on many occasions in understanding some of more difficult aspects of both the statistics blocks as well as the machine learning.I really recommend them for their passion, up to date material and the incredible amount that is taught over a period of 10 weeks.

I attended Nod with almost no prior coding experience. I did not know what to expect when I decided to join the program but in these ten weeks, I’ve felt like I have learned so much. I now can confidently say that I know Python, SQL, Pandas, Machine Learning, Data Visualization, and so much more! The way of teaching at Nod is absolutely perfect for me personally, every day when going home I have learned something new with the perfect mix of theory, practice, and individual projects.  You could think that ten weeks of full-time intensive learning would make you tired every day, but the teachers provide so much energy, and they challenge you to learn tons of relevant knowledge every day. I would absolutely recommend attending Nod!

My time at Nod can be summarized as positive experiences stacked upon even more positive experiences. The teachers delivers on every front you could think of: good curriculum, good understanding of the subject, a willingness to teach, making you feel welcome etc.If I had to point out one single feature I enjoyed most it would be how the work with you, recognize your potential and assist you on your path to achieve it.
