Best School Experience/ life experience I ever had
I recently completed the software engineering bootcamp, and it was truly an amazing experience. Not only did I gain valuable knowledge and skills in the field, but I also had the opportunity to connect with like-minded individuals who felt like family. The sense of community and support was incredible, and I made lifelong friends in the industry.

Not only did I gain valuable knowledge and skills in the field, but I also had the opportunity to connect with like-minded individuals who felt like family. The sense of community and support was incredible, and I made lifelong friends in the industry.
The bootcamp provided a comprehensive curriculum that covered all the essential topics in software engineering. From coding languages to software development methodologies, I learned practical skills that have significantly boosted my confidence in pursuing a software engineering career.
The instructors were knowledgeable, passionate, and dedicated to helping us succeed. They fostered a positive learning environment where questions were encouraged, and hands-on projects allowed us to apply what we learned. The guidance and mentorship I received throughout the bootcamp were invaluable.
One aspect I particularly appreciated was the emphasis on real-world projects. We had the opportunity to work on industry-relevant projects, which not only enhanced our technical skills but also provided us with valuable portfolio pieces to showcase our abilities to potential employers.
Overall, I highly recommend this software engineering bootcamp. It provided an excellent learning experience, a supportive community, and the confidence I needed to pursue a career in software engineering. I am now equipped with the knowledge and skills to confidently apply for software engineering jobs. Thank you to the entire bootcamp team for an unforgettable journey! - Armando FernándezGraduate • Software Engineering Bootcamp • MiamiVerified by LinkedInMay 19, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Amazing Learning Experience
It is not easy to learn and become a software engineer and Brainstation Miami made it a great experience. This is a no fluff course. You go straight into coding and learning real world experiences. The teachers are extremely knowledgeable and passionate about the course and spend a lot of time helping out. - Eric HaugenData Manager • Graduate • Data Science Online • OnlineVerified by LinkedInMay 19, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
High voltage, high velocity learning experience
Brainstation has a horde of talented instructors who are available for you to schedule plenty of 1 on 1 time with titans who really know their stuff.
The curriculum is brutal, and if you choose the 3 month bootcamp for data science, you're in for a wild ride.
It starts off slow and steady, learning some SQL, learning some reporting and communication practices,
then it goes into python and begins accelerating rapidly into advanced statistical concepts.

If you are honestly, (be honest with yourself), capable of maintaining focus for 80 HOURS A WEEK on course material, studying, and working the content, this bootcamp is the best there is for you.
However, I wish I did not take the 3 month class. I hardly had time to breathe. - Ryan WGraduate • User Experience Design Bootcamp • MiamiVerified by LinkedInMay 19, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Challenging & Rewarding Experience
This bootcamp was jam-packed with so much information that is overwhelming at first but when you take a moment to thinking about it, it’s so amazing to realize the sheer amount of skills you learn, both hard and soft skills. All of the projects, group assignments, and experience working with industry partners made this a unique and impactful learning experience. - Charles BuadaStudent • Web Development • VancouverVerified by LinkedInMay 19, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Educational, Intense, Creative
I learned a lot from this class! I didn't have much experience with coding beforehand, but by at the end of the course I created a nice looking webpage. There was a lot of educational material provided by the school and education material on the internet. My teachers guided me and this is what helped me gain the capabilities that I needed.

The class was challenging which changed me as a person. I was shy when I started out in the class, but I gained confidence after I proved that I could handle the work and educational material. The class can be really intense for some, but I was able to get my work done because of my persistence. - Miguel VasquezStudent • Web Development Online • OnlineVerified by LinkedInMay 18, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
I love it
This program is excellent for an absolute beginner to become an advanced web developer. The instructors are patient and always happy to help.

An Exceptional Journey into the World of UX Design
I recently had the pleasure of embarking on an immersive UX design journey through a remarkable bootcamp, and I must say, it was an experience that left an indelible mark on my professional growth.

This comprehensive program provided an excellent platform for aspiring UX designers like me to learn, practice, and refine our skills, making it worthy of a solid four-star rating.
The bootcamp's curriculum was thoughtfully structured, covering all the essential aspects of UX design with great attention to detail. From the fundamentals of user research and wireframing to prototyping and user testing, ensuring a solid foundation for students of varying backgrounds. The course materials were well-organized, and the instructors fostered an engaging learning environment, encouraging active participation and fostering meaningful discussions.
The bootcamp's commitment to industry relevance was commendable. The curriculum kept pace with the latest trends and technologies in the UX field, ensuring that we received up-to-date knowledge and were well-prepared for the demands of the industry. The inclusion of industry guest speakers and workshops further enriched our learning experience, providing insights into real-world challenges and fostering connections with professionals in the field.
While the overall experience was undoubtedly remarkable, there were a few areas where the bootcamp could improve. Firstly, more emphasis on advanced UX concepts and techniques could have further enriched the learning experience, catering to students seeking to deepen their knowledge beyond the fundamentals.
In conclusion, this UX design bootcamp exceeded my expectations, equipping me with the knowledge, skills, and confidence to embark on a career in the exciting world of UX design. While there is room for growth in certain aspects, this bootcamp undeniably deserves a solid four-star rating and comes highly recommended for anyone looking to kickstart their journey in UX design. - Trevor WernerGraduate • Software Engineering Bootcamp Online • OnlineVerified by LinkedInMay 18, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Phenomenal

Hyer-focused Lessons by Enthusiastic Teachers
Entering the 4-week course, I knew the classes would be dense and fast-paced. But what I didn't expect was the retain all of the information by the end of the ~8 hour session. This alone is thanks to the wonderful instructors Aadil Khan and Emi Sato. They were both punctual, knowledgeable, and prepared. They also had a very good sense of awareness when it came to information overload, and would prompt a short break or lunch right when it was needed.

But what I didn't expect was the retain all of the information by the end of the ~8 hour session. This alone is thanks to the wonderful instructors Aadil Khan and Emi Sato. They were both punctual, knowledgeable, and prepared. They also had a very good sense of awareness when it came to information overload, and would prompt a short break or lunch right when it was needed.
On top of this, the course structure was built in a way that the first class taught most of the theory and principles behind UX design. Every class after that became lighter and more playful. This approach left excited about what I had learned, and looking forward to the next class. Each class included slideshows with points explaining a broad and narrowed topic that the instructors would expand upon with their experience in the industry. This was vital for us to understand how the lessons relate to the real-world. We also had a few exercises where class-mates would work with each other. For example, we were told to interview each other after creating a script of questions to try and narrow down the persons core needs and pinpoints on a particular subject. Lastly, the online learning platform had some issues but still had an easy-to-use dashboard to access all course materials
Overall, I am pleased with the course from BrainStation and would learn from them again. I would recommend this course to anyone considering a new career, or pivoting to a different focus within design like me. - Bruce PalmerGraphic Designer/DJ • Student • MiamiVerified by LinkedInMay 10, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Amazing Course
Learned what digital marketing was all about. Didn’t know anything before. Taught us everything we needed to know. Class was fun. This is my second class at BrainStation.
