    Great Learning session

    Recently I completed my Certified Scrum Master (CSM) training and certification through Knowledge Hut and it was a really good experience. The trainer was knowledgeable and presented the session in a very interactive and enjoyable way. Overall a great session organized by Knowledge Hut and the team.
    All training material was shared during the training was more than enough to qualify certification.

    Extremely poor value for the money we pay., More than $5000 of my own hard earned money (+ lots of money to travel to and fro from NYC) to get instruction from couple of instructors who just were not the experts. They would hand out notes and programming assignment text every class, and take questions. There WAS NO attempt ot even link real industry use-cases to the classes. No deep insight or anything... One can simply take courses on Coursera which was far better. No attempt to prov...

    Not What It Claims to Be

    They do not help place you in a job. The "best" they offer is to unpaid intern for them with the vague offers of unpaid work later. The content is okay, but you could find the same online with a little digging. I could not even get a letter of completion/recomendation from them.

    I think its a poor program for the money, and mainly a way for the owner to keep his data science company afloat. I'd look for other bootcamps, or maybe just suck it up and learn on your own. The course ...

    Waste of time, money, no job placement, not hiring partners, all lies.  They don't help you at all with jobs it's like yeah we have hiring partners, you don't need projects for github etc...lies.  They don't answer emails...Save your money go to a real data science school.    You would think that they would believe in their own program to the point where they would at least give you an internship with their consulting company to at least gain some e...

    think again..

    I wrote a previous review which I spent some time on that got deleted....so to keep this one short incase it gets deleted again, this program is not worth your money. 

    Yes things are tought in this class but not worth the cost of the program. I felt scammed almost by the end of it, as if it were just a moneymaking scheme for the main company. I would not recommend these classes unless they were almost free. Things can be learned online at a better pace/depth and efficency th...

    Hadoop and Big Data Analytics course is waste of money

    I regret taking the part-time hadoop and big data analytics course at BitBootCamp and would advise against it in it's current state. In fact, my theory is that the whole BitBootCamp business is mostly a way for the founder to help fund his sister big data consulting startup, Hudson Data.

    Also, apparently they occasionally try to use the classes as a recruitting tool, as the teacher said that a few former students currently worked with Hudson Data. Be wary, though. A couple of stu...

    Excellent Bootcamp

    I am a former educator transitioning into Data Science, and this course has been an excellent foundation. The course has exceptional instructors, and an impressive curriculum to match.

    I've had 4 different instructors throughout my time here, and every single instructor is professional, extremely knowledgeable, approachable, and always patient. 

    I appreciated that the course really hones in on real-world applications of Data Science, very similar to how it would be done...

    Hadoop / Big Data

    This course was awesome and worth every minute.  The balance between lecture and lab/project time was perfect.  Looking back, there would be no way I coudl have learned as much as I did on my own.  My eyes are now fully open to the world of big data!

    Data Science and Machine Learning Bitbootcamp

    I took a bunch of outline courses before diving into the bootcamp scene, but never really felt comfortable with various topics.  Soo...I took the plunge...

    Very happy with my experience at Bitbootcamp.  Took the Data Science and Machine Learning course part time and got a lot out of it.  The instructors and material were top-notch and I got a lot of assistance working through weekly and longer projects.  Everyone was very friendly and patient.

    BitBootcamp Big Data and Hadoop

    I actually did not want to write negative review as I am not a jerk and although I was not happy with the delivery of the course, I just figured to see it as a bad experience as I only attended one class and I knew that there were others who paid a lot more because they attended other classes at the same time.

    But, I just did not want others to have similar experience and waste thousands of dollars of hard-earned money for something wasteful.

    Accelerated learning

    Hadoop and big data are not subjects that are easy to digest. This course really put me to the test. The instructor is no nonsense and has over a decade of big data experience. You can't learn data science from anyone better. He has connections and job assistance shouldn't be a problem if you have the right stuff. I don't come from a technical background so it took some time and dedication but I was able to receive my Hadoop certification and it was only through the h...
