Data Science & AI bootcamp | On campus, full-time Reviews

After finishing my math undergraduate I was a bit lost. I was thinking to go for a masters but wasn't sure. And then I found out about Le Wagon. I joined Le Wagon to become proficient in programing and improve my communication skills. I felt that a masters was more theoretical in nature and that Le Wagon provided me the hands on skill to land the job of my dreams.Eventually, as it turned out, I wasn't mistaken. Within 3 months I managed to learn machine learning and built a reinforcement learning AI which plays TicTacToe as the final project of my team.  It was not just the learning process, but what really stood out was the people. Every single moment I felt an integral part of the community and the teachers were more than eager to assist during any step of the process.I truly recommend Le Wagon to everyone.

After 3 years working in Investment Banking, I decided to update my skill-set with some tools that I could use for whatever my next professional challenge would be. That’s why I decided to study Data Science. Choosing Le Wagon was a no-brainer for me since it is the best coding school & their approach was exactly what I needed - a hands-on Bootcamp where you can learn by doing challenges.In addition, some key competitive advantages I’d like to highlight are i) the Teaching Assistant support during challenges - that makes the difference if you're stuck with something you've never done before, ii) the continuous update of the lectures, challenges & program overall to be up-to-date in the field, and iii) their product-oriented approach - that makes the Bootcamp a pretty good approximation of the real working challenges, and hence, an easier landing in your next job :)

The Wagon was an unforgettable experience for me, a real breath of fresh air, where I was able to learn to code in Python during the summer. This allowed me to acquire skills but also to grow in the company where I am currently working. I approach data with a whole different perspective and I am able to conduct much more relevant analyses. Also, I can scrap websites easily. Le Wagon has also allowed me to join a great community, made up of mutual aid and benevolence. I will miss the surprise breakfasts and the crazy parties!

If you are looking for a bootcamp that offers a comprehensive curriculum, a great learning environment and incredible post-bootcamp career support then Le Wagon is for you!I joined Le Wagon in July 2021 as I was looking to transition from my career in production engineering to a data based role in the tech industry. Le Wagon's Data Science course exceeded my expectations in three key areas:1. Content- The syllabus at Le Wagon is quite comprehensive for a 9 week course. They started us off with some python, SQL and mathematic fundamentals, before moving on to more complex machine learning and deep learning concepts. At the end of the course, we applied everything we learnt in a group based project. The group project was definitely challenging, but it was so rewarding to be able to come from basically zero programming knowledge to being able to build and actual web app that utilised machine learning and data engineering. 2. Excellent Teachers- The teaching staff at Le Wagon were top notch. They knew the content and could answer any difficult questions. They were also very patient, and were able to explain all the concepts clearly, taking time to make sure all students understood the material well before moving on.   They were also very encouraging and supporting, and their support cannot be understated. The material is quite difficult and challenging at certain points- but the teachers were very good in encouraging us to push through and helped us at any point when we felt stuck. I went to Top 8 University in Australia, and I can honestly say that the teaching staff at Le Wagon were better than any Lecturer that I had at Uni. 3. Career support- No bootcamp can honestly 100% guarantee employment after completing the course,  but Le Wagon definitely did their best to help me find a job as soon as possible! After the bootcamp, we spent an entire week where dedicated staff helped us spruce up our LinkedIn profiles, resumes, cover letters and GitHub. This was definitely effective, as I was able to secure full time employment as a Data and Analytics consultant for a Big 4 company only 4 WEEKS after I completed the course. I could not have imagined a better outcome!

Former PhD in cryptography, I came to Le Wagon bootcamp to seek new opportunities in the field of data sciences, and I was not disappointed. As a computer science nerd the first two weeks were very pleasant, building the technical fondations and good practices, but it’s when we were introduced machine learning and deep learning concepts I realised I wanted to work in the data sciences. The bootcamp now completed I spend some time focusing on side projects while coming back in the topics introduced in the bootcamp in depth. I am currently a Teacher Assistant at the same Le Wagon bootcamp and will start my job search soon.

I have been studying finance in a business school for 5 years before joining le Wagon. I wanted to acquire additional skills in data analysis, data sciences and task automatisation. For those reasons, I joined the Le Wagon Paris Data Science bootcamp during the summer 2021. Following the bootcamp, i decided to leave finance towards a data science career. I am currently working part-time as a Teaching Assistant at Le Wagon and taking job interviews for a data analyst position. Le wagon have been a life changing eye opening experience, both regarding my personal and professional life.

The pandemic set many including myself into career cross-roads and thus I decided to see if I could crack the tech industry's eggshell. Despite there being several online courses, many had the issue of answering questions fast enough. With Le Wagon you have multiple experienced teaching assistants to help answer any and all questions via Zoom on the spot. This helps propel progress extremely fast, especially when doing the bootcamp full-time.

Before joining the Bootcamp I was working in growth for various startups ranging from sports to fintech, while following a data driven approach there was still a lot of spreadsheets. I decided to join the Bootcamp in order to break the limitations of sheets, to become more independent in doing my own database queries and to communicate better with the data-team. What I really enjoyed during this super challenging rollercoaster ride through the world of data science was the peer to peer learning and well structured content of the lectures. Also always having a TA, who could provide a different point of view, really helped to get through some challenging moments.

Hi Everyone🖐I'm Tim and I just completed the LeWagon DataScience Bootcamp this Summer in Berlin 📊👨‍🔬 Honestly speaking, it was -by a margin-  the best experience I had in a while!After finishing my MA degree I was ready to kick off my career life in Asia, but due to the global pandemic and some unfortunate circumstances I had to give up my plans and return to my home country, where I was struggling to accept that my prior dreams had shattered. I needed to find a new direction and LeWagon gave me exactly the right impetus to push my life towards new goals - becoming a developer and finally finding the freedom that I seek! 🚌🌄During the Bootcamp I learned enough about DataScience and overall programming to now work on projects that I never thought possible before, such as building trading bots that can generate a source of passive income. I have to say that the support, teaching style and overall organization from LeWagon has been excellent throughout the 9-weeks and even after graduation, I know, that I am now part of a community, that I can rely on if I ever run into problems. 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦I would recommend the LeWagon Bootcamp to literally anyone, who is looking for an impactful challenge that can lead to a position in the tech industry.

Before joining Le Wagon I was working at my University as a professional intern, I knew I wanted to do meaningful work but lacked the skills to apply for big time roles. That’s why I joined the bootcamp and it was the best decision I’ve made, from understanding machine learning to being involved in this community it was everything I hoped for. In 9 weeks I was able to build my own deep learning model to predict stock market analysis with bright minded colleagues. I am Le Wagon forever and excited to continue to collaborate with the alumni in the future.-Munji Kahalah

I joined LeWagon during a summer at Uni, as I don't enjoy my degree in electronics and was looking for my calling elsewhere. LeWagon definitely proved supper helpful for this, I got to learn a new codding language from scratch and see examples of data analytics applied in almost every industry. For example, my final project consisted on predicting the direction of bitcoin price! I recommend this experience to anyone looking to change career direction or learn data analytics. The teaching is incredible there are TA's available all day to quickly help with any questions, together with really cool alumni talks including current employees at Google or Monzo!

My experience at Le Wagon must’ve been one of the most rewarding learning experiences I’ve had. Before the bootcamp I was going into my 4th year of Biomedical Science, wanting to focus on Computational Neuroscience afterwards, which is why I decided to learn how to code and improve my data science skills. During the Data Science Bootcamp I met the most incredible people, from other students to teachers who were all amazing at explaining concepts and guiding me through daily challenges. The course was structured in a way which was easy to follow, and I could tell I was building up knowledge on different concepts day by day. I was amazed at the progress I had made, going from not knowing how to code at all to completing a final project which classified different stages of Alzheimer’s Disease from MRI Images using Deep Learning. Le Wagon not only helped me develop my data science and coding skills, but also the ability to work efficiently in teams. Careers week was an extra special bonus which helped me massively with writing my CV as well as providing helpful resources about jobs and further study. Overall, 11/10 :)
