    Insightful. Collaborative. Cohesive

    I highly suggest taking this UX course in person! UX design is a joint collaboration and feedback, and for an accelerated course, it has a more immersive experience when you get to talk to fellow students and professors. I can see how I can apply what learned in my career, without feeling overwhelmed.

    This was a great learning experience. It gave me a first step for learning SQL and Tableau. Also there were teachings in Excel and analyzing data. The instructors were patient and helpful. I would recommend this course.

    UX Design was exactly what I was looking for!

    I had a wonderful experience taking the UX Design course at BrainStation’s Miami campus this spring/summer. It’s a very fast pace Figma-based course, so practicing the software and keeping up with the pace of the class is key. I really enjoyed all the knowledge the instructors brought to the classroom, from their real work day to day. As a former Creative Director, I highly recommend it if you are looking to expand your skills or pivot your career!

    Data Analytics Course has Room for Improvement

    The course could use more practice problems with solutions available to compare your answers. The instructor I had was not very engaged in the course as they were doing it as a side job. They did not come prepared to class and we had a lot of silent moments when they had to fix or solve something. We also heard "let me google that" a lot, which just shows how the instructor did not prepare the class ahead of time. Additionally, the instructor was not very skilled at explaining concepts. ...

    Good for starting new career

    I took UX certificate course at BrainStation for shifting my career. The course has 8 classes and they cover basic knowledge about UX design through a project. I felt a bit tight schedule to learn whole process of UX design in this course. We have to use Figma which is a key tool for UX design. Probably it will be a bit difficult to go through this course without Figma knowledge, but you can ask anything to learning support team with Slack. The teachers are professional, and they advised...

    From nothing to a plan.

    The mix of in-person lessons and Brainstation's digital education platform was perfect for me. In-person classes fostered open discussion, and the tutors could more easily share personal anecdotes, while the digital element allowed me to easily refer back to all of the previous lessons when I hit a snag, or even have a quick look at the next week's lesson to get a head start on some of the concepts. Great platform and knowledgeable teachers, I highly recommend it.
