As a student I found the entire course to be beneficial in building my knowledge over python, visualization tools, machine learning, neural networks etc. Furthermore, every weekly project and the final big project(with a partner company) added valuable experience to my journey. All instructors in Big Blue are acclaimed in their domain, with a prestigious career in EU companies and they provided all the support and guidance we needed. Last but not least, I was happy to have 2 job offers, even before the ending of the bootcamp and at the moment I work as a mid-senior Data Analyst! - MaroGraduate • Data Science Bootcamp (Full-Time) • OnlineVerified by LinkedInAug 06, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Valuable knowledge
The bootcamp was everything I could ask for. Experienced instructors and everyone is always available to help. But the most important part that made this bootcamp stand out is the everyday and weekly application of everything we had already learned, plus the final project, that we worked for a company's project. Also, the classes about the soft skills were especially helpful. - ThanosGraduate • Data Science Bootcamp (Full-Time) • OnlineVerified by LinkedInApr 28, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

Challenging but Rewarding Experience
The course was a comprehensive dive into essential data analytics tools and concepts, covering Python, Pandas, SQL, databases, Power BI, and an introduction to machine learning. Each module was designed to build on the previous one, providing a strong foundation for real-world data analysis.

Each module was designed to build on the previous one, providing a strong foundation for real-world data analysis.
Our instructors were highly knowledgeable and supportive, ensuring we grasped complex concepts effectively.
However, the pace of the course was quite fast, often leaving limited time for in-depth practice.
After three hours of intense theory, it was sometimes difficult to maintain focus during the fourth hour, especially when additional theoretical content was introduced.
One suggestion for improvement would be to include a dedicated section focused on real-life examples, especially in the Python-Pandas and Machine Learning modules.
This could help bridge the gap between theory and practice, allowing students to better understand how to apply these skills in real-world scenarios.
Additionally, a more interactive way of studying, perhaps through an app or platform with practice exercises, quizzes, and coding challenges, could make a significant difference in enhancing engagement and retention. This would provide more opportunities to practice on the go and reinforce key concepts.
Despite the challenges, I gained valuable skills and now feel more confident applying data analytics in professional settings. Overall, this was a rewarding experience that greatly enhanced my knowledge.

Intense , riveting
It was the first time I got my hands on Code and I can say I'm excited. Starting from scratch, I was getting familiar at a fast pace, under the right guidance. Now I see data from a different perspective and its a bend new future. I'd like to emphasize that all the teachers and the secretariat were always available to listen and help. It was a really nice journey and I'm looking forward to the next one! - ΑΛΕΞΑΝΔΡΑ ΧΑΡΟΛΙΔΟΥSupervisor Fraud • Graduate • Professional Diploma in Data Analytics • AthensDec 11, 2024Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
