Data Science & AI bootcamp | Online, full-time Reviews

I am very happy and grateful. I know know how and what to do to get where I want. After 10 years I finally found a professional field I'm interested in and that I can play as a game. I get to learn all the basis, the tricks, the following steps to take in order to succeed in the field. I never coded before and was awful at maths, and ever without pretending being an engineer, I know I am now able to provide junior DS works and I'll be able to grow in the field by working on what's missing. I am able to build ML and DL models, to grid search them to get the best parameters, know which metrics to use to evaluate the models, how to choose the best model, research libraries, explain my models. I feel like a new person on the professional side. 

About 3 months ago, I completed the Le Wagon Data Science bootcamp. Considering I had no prior programming experience, except for the prep work provided by Le Wagon, I can say that the experience was incredible. All the TAs and people involved are spectacular, assisting at every step of our journey. Of course, it's challenging, and most days, we feel a bit down because we didn't complete the challenges as we wanted within the time we desired, but the community is so supportive that we feel great. Since I finished, I was fortunate enough to change careers and secure a job at a tech company. I didn't find exactly the job I wanted, but with the foundations Le Wagon provided and a lot of dedication, I believe I'll achieve it in the future. Thank you, Le Wagon, I highly recommend it.

Last week I finished and successfully graduated Le Wagon Data Science & AI Bootcamp.It was hard to juggle with work and three kids for 6 months, but it was worth it.We covered a lot of material and all fundamentals, and we had to showcase itwith a very personal and special to me capstone project, which I hope to share soon when it's published on their YouTube channel.Can highly recommend Le Wagon !

This was 9 intense weeks, and I enjoyed almost all the study. I think this is typical length for a bootcamp, maybe because making it longer would be prohibitively expensive. But I finished feeling I still have a long way to go. I think that's normal with such bootcamps - I did a web development one many years ago that was 12 weeks and still felt the same on completion - so maybe no duration would ever be enough. Perhaps they could offer optional extra weeks?On the course structure: I think the topics were generally well-chosen and well taught, and the teaching assistants were wonderful. I would have preferred a slightly higher hands-on to lecture ratio, though that can be hard for a bootcamp to sell, since it feels like as a student you're somehow getting less for your money. But getting stuck and overcoming the obstacles is where 90% of the learning happens.It's also worth mentioning that the job market for data science grads seems possibly a lot smaller and at least a lot more complex than for web development grads, so if you're looking for the shortest path to a transition into tech, my initial impression is that latter (which Le Wagon also offer) is probably a better choice. To do this course, you should be prepared for a lot of post-course networking, rejection, while juggling further study with the need to send out enough job applications.So be sure this is what you want to do - but if it is, I think this is a very good way of getting started.

I enjoyed the pre-work and all the tools/ressources provide by Le Wagon. The lectures in the morning and then challengs with buddies were very good. I really liked the challenges, with the score showing the level of completion of each challenge. The last two weeks of projects were also very interesting. I would recommend it without hesitation.I enjoyed my interactions with the staff. Everyone was really helpful. 

I liked having the chance to put all of my skills over the course of the bootcamp to the test! It was challenging but just as rewarding.My experience at Le Wagon was definitely an uphill climb to start with, but I eventually adjusted and was at pace with the course. It was both challenging and rewarding, like the preparation of my project.The staff are generally enthusiastic, patient and knowledgeable. I felt like I was in good hands no matter who I had a ticket with.

It's been a joy to dedicate 11 weeks to expanding my knowledge at Le Wagon's Data Science and Machine Learning bootcamp. The bootcamp itself lasts 9 weeks, but there's an optional very helpful week of Python prep before it starts and another optional very helpful career week once you've graduated. Full disclaimer: I didn't have to pay for bootcamp, it was completely subsidised by the German government, so my review should be taken with a pinch of salt because I didn't commit several thousands of euros of my own savings into this endeavour. That being said, many of my classmates did, and they left pretty satisfied with their investment. The amount of content you'll somehow manage to process in only two and a half months is pretty insane. Le Wagon runs a rather tight ship when it comes to organisation, on-site as well as online (I started by attending the bootcamp in Berlin then moved to online halfway through, so I can speak for both setups). Some teachers are outstanding, capable of taking the world's most complicated aspect of neural networks and explaining it to a 5-year-old, and some others, unfortunately not yet. But the structure of the course is such that even if the TA isn't yet very skilled in terms of didactic, you'll be perfectly fine: there's tons of support in case you have any questions, both from your classmates and from a group of TAs that's available to the class once the day's lecture is over. Overall, I'd recommend it to anyone who wants to hop on the ChatGPT wagon and move into the AI space. 

Frankly speaking I was a bit afraid that the bootcamp is only 2 months but in the end it seems enough. They give us the core understanding of the matter and even sometimes the newest trends. With these skills and knowledge it would be easy to develop further. The career week is also useful and full of insights. Do not think that this is a pill to get a job - the job search is not an easy task for a beginner after any kind of education but the fact is that you will be able to use your knowledge of data science to do projects.A chance to realize your own project is great. The choice of used tools in setup is nice. The coding part of the course (python week it's called?) was especially great. The data science tools used are also useful.But be aware that you have to code and understand code. So some sort of technical propensities is a must have imo. If coding is not as exiting maybe you should consider data analyst bootcamp.Overall it was a positive experience and I've enjoyed it. 

Le Wagon Data Science Bootcamp offers a highly recommended learning experience. The curriculum is comprehensive, covering mathematics, statistics, machine learning, and data analysis. The hands-on approach through real-world projects builds practical skills and a strong portfolio. The instructors are knowledgeable and explain complex concepts effectively. The supportive community fosters collaboration and knowledge sharing. Le Wagon's career services, including resume building and job placement support, are invaluable. The bootcamp's commitment to diversity and inclusion creates an inclusive learning environment. Overall, Le Wagon Data Science Bootcamp provides a transformative journey, equipping students with technical skills, problem-solving abilities, and a growth mindset. It is an excellent choice for those passionate about data science and seeking to advance their careers.

I'm now a graduate of the Data Science cursus at Le Wagon (Online). Obviously, it's impossible to cover the entire subject in only a few months, but Le Wagon makes a great job at laying solid foundations and awaking the desire to go even further in the domain. Each day is supervised by teachers and assistants. The teachers are all very pleasant, give courses in a fun way and provide help whenever needed, so we don't get stuck on an exercise and can keep progressing. 

I attended the Data Science course at Le Wagon and was very satisfied with my experience. The teachers were highly competent and had extensive experience in the field. The course materials were well-designed and tailored to our learning pace. I also appreciated the classroom atmosphere, where we were encouraged to work in groups and ask questions without hesitation.One of the most positive aspects of this course was how it was structured. The program was well-organized and covered all important aspects of Data Science, from data collection and preparation to implementing Machine Learning models. Time was also dedicated to practical projects that allowed us to directly apply the concepts learned in class.I have no specific negative points to mention, but some weeks were more challenging than others to assimilate all the content. Fortunately, all classes were available online, making it easy to review and catch up on anything missed.Overall, I highly recommend the Data Science course at Le Wagon for those looking to venture into this exciting field.
