    Very Good Experience!

    The data analytics course I took with Brain Station, though short, was packed with tons of practical information. The curriculum was well organized and progressed in complexity incrementally. The instructors were well prepared and had lots of experience in the field. Due to lack of time many concepts were not discussed extremely in depth but we were provided with all the tools necessary to explore the concepts further on our own. I left the class with much better understanding of program...

    More Educational than Uni

    I am a full time Digital Media student who has looked into getting into the UX field. I had done a bunch of self-teaching but Brainstation really allowed me to put my skills into practice and teach me new skills. It was an environment where I was able to realise I was on the right path with my self teaching and helped me understand concepts I struggled with in better ways. The instructors Julian and Lynne was top tier and able to make real-world example as well and answer all our questio...

    Software Engineering Bootcamp

    The program is intensive, well structured, and covers a wide range of tools and technologies. Teachers and TAs are responsive and pay attention to all students on emerging issues. There are many interesting individual and group projects. I recommend the course for those planning to start a career in Software Engineering with some basic knowledge about the software development lifecycle.

    good good good

    as a self paced learner, i don't think i really like bootcamp study, but the courses provided by Brainstation do meet requirments of industry maket which is helpful, and i just personally hate seating in a classroom with a lot people, generally the experience is good, some of educators and TAs are patient, some are not unfortunately, overall highly recommand to people who need strong support when they are learning new knowledge.

    Great Software Engineer Bootcamp

    Brainstation is the best software engineering bootcamp. I learned so much for just 3 months. It's better than self-learning on udemy or coursera or youtube, because there are educators and TAs to help you. And also you can learn the update technology and connect with real people in the industry.

    Wondeful Experience.

    I had a great time during my experience with BrainStation for the digital marketing course. Our teachers, Davide and Shanni, were incredibly knowledgeable and well-versed in the industry. I would have benefited more from hands-on demos of the platforms and crafting demo campaigns together, rather than solely listening to instructions on how to set them up. Despite that, I thought the course was great overall, and I would definitely recommend it.

    Excellent bootcamp experience at BrainStation

    Having completed a two-year Computer Programming course at Seneca, I found myself in possession of a solid academic foundation but with a skill set that felt underdeveloped for the demands of the tech industry. My transition to BrainStation was a revelation. From the outset, the learning environment resonated with a sense of purpose and practicality that was both invigorating and inspiring.

    At BrainStation, the curriculum wasn't just about learning to code; it was a co...

    Positively Skewed Mixed Bag

    Where to begin, on one hand my experience with the education team was incredible.  The teachers are all very unique and incredibly intelligent, it was a pleasure to learn from all of them and I feel like a completely different person from when I started.  On the other hand, the career experience team is very lackluster.  You don't really deal with them very much until the end of the course so it doesn't really affect you all too much but the stark contrast in quality is jarring.
