BrainStation Reviews
- Brainstation UX Design course review- 3/17/2021Regan Katerenchuk • Student • Course: User Experience Design • Campus: Toronto • Verified via LinkedInI've been so pleased with the Brainstation User Design course. I have been pleasantly surprised about the degree of communication, organization and effort that goes into creating and running these courses. I felt very connected to my teachers and classmates and looked forward to my weekly class. The timing worked out perfectly for my schedule and I truly learned so much from this program. I'm excited to take this wealth of knowledge and experience and begin my UX career.
- Digital Marketing- 3/5/2021Nitika Oberoi • Workplace Consultant • Graduate • Course: Digital Marketing Online • Campus: Online • Verified via LinkedInA great certificate program to enhance and build upon new skills in the extremely relevant Digital Marketing area of expertise
- Data Science - Part-Time- 2/28/2021Joshua Koonce • Operations Research Analyst • Student • Course: Data Science Online • Campus: Online • Verified via LinkedInI've had good experiences with Brainstation. I've now taken both their Data Science and Machine Learning certificate programs, and I'll be commenting on the Data Science one here.
First off, the instructors I've had have been top notch. Andrew was my instructor this go round, and it was evident that this guy works data science for a living. You can tell by the way he codes, changes code on the fly at such speed, and debugs code when it's not working. He also seems to be genuinely enchanted with Data Science as a whole. He answered all questions, even my dumb questions, clearly and cleanly.
The course content itself is solid. I highly recommend you know Python prior to taking this course, rather than just knowing a programming language in general. Everything is coded in Python from day 1, to include using some more "advanced" features like list comprehensions, so having a good grasp of Python I think is integral to your experience with these courses. The only thing I really wasn't high on in the course content was the Statistics section; it's simply too large and broad of a topic to cover in the scope of this course. In my opinion, a basic statistics background should already be had before jumping into Data Science. Most classes and topics are like that, but the statistics portion really stuck out to me.
Jupyter notebooks are provided, so the material is flexible and easy to work with. The instructors provide solutions-included notebooks after the lessons, which is handy for someone like me that wants to watch them work the problems and then figure them out in my own manner later.
Due to the nature of these part-time courses, and the material covered in such a short time, don't expect to just listen to lectures and be good at Data Science. You will need to work through the Jupyter notebooks on your own time, and do additional research on your own as well. This should be expected for anyone who has ever coded before, but for those who might think it's a sit back and learn it all class, it's not that easy.
A hanging point for some people is that there's no 'job guarantee' or assistance with BrainStation. To those folks, I ask you do you truly believe that you're going to get a dream job out of a bootcamp's career assistance or guarantees? I think it's a worthless perk for the average student because you're going to have to know your stuff to be successful in the field anyway, and if you don't know your stuff, you're probably not going to stay in that job long even if it's given to you. It may work out for some, but I didn't see it as a requirement.
Overall, I would recommend BrainStation to others, particularly if your company is willing to help with the tuition.
- UX Design Diploma | Fall 2020- 2/8/2021Jacqueline • UX Design Intern • Student • Course: User Experience Design • Campus: Toronto • Verified via LinkedInThe BrainStation UX Design Diploma was incredible experience and led to my first internship at a startup so close to where I live. The entire program was delivered online over the course of 3 months. It was based out of Toronto, but like I said, I worked from the comfort of my home without commuting anywhere. Here are some of the highlights and some considerations.
Highlights- Hands-On learning helps you learn fast and makes you feel competent at a fast pace
- Teachers who don't make you feel dumb for asking questions and try to create confidence in students while still remaining open to feedback
- Empathetic and available instructors to help you with the course, but also help you with the emotional aspect of switching your career
- TA's that work even more closely with you and answer questions immediately when you need help
- The course is meant to mimic the real world in so many ways, so that you feel confident when you enter the workplace
- Job search advice and seminars on how to tailor you resume and network with industry professionals
- Forces you to learn things beyond the course content, like time-blocking, which is essential when you do land a job in the industry
- Reading content and then immediately practicing it with your cohort helps solidify concepts
- You get to choose the topic of your capstone project so you feel pretty inspired by what you create
- Many Collaborative work opportunities, and learning to provide feedback from others as well as receive feedback from others on your work on a regular basis
Technology- Figma, Sketch, Invision
- We spent one day on principle and zeplin
Considerations- You're not going to learn everything there is to know about UX in this course, nor any course probably out there
- UX is about life-long learning. When I got my internship I took 3 more courses on the side b/c they were offered to me for free by the company sponsoring the internship, so if you are offered free courses, I recommend taking them. I learned lots afterwards and also on-the-job.
- I don't recommend working while taking this course as it starts out calm and goes into full speed before you know it
- No matter what course you take, it's going to be hard work switching over to that new industry without any work experience. There may not be alot of internships out there, but there ARE some and these are your best bet if you're not coming from a design background.
- It's not going to be easy, but if you love psychology and design, you will likely thrive
- Job Assistance, is NOT job placement. They teach you to create a great resume, talk about how to approach interviews (the most helpful bit) and also try to give you networking advice (which I found to be the least helpful tbh, but that may be because I had no connections to anyone in the industry & was just cold messaging people).
- It was the best thing I've ever done for myself. I am not an intern, making $15,000 more than I was last year and am doing something I find meaningful
- Amazing learning experience- 2/1/2021Michaela • Graduate • Course: Digital Marketing • Campus: Toronto • Verified via LinkedInCourse pace was breathable, concepts explained thoroughly, and instructors guided us in navigating the industry for opportunities and valuable insights.
- Data Science- 1/24/2021Meral Ari • Researcher • Graduate • Course: Data Science Online • Campus: Online • Verified via LinkedInI really appreciate how our instructors made the advance parts of the content simpler and am thankful for their valuable efforts on responding every question and on motivating us to take part. The content was also very well prepared and the steps were nicely explained.
- Open my career in BrainStation- 1/21/2021Wanda Wang • Graduate • Course: Digital Marketing • Campus: Vancouver • Verified via LinkedInOne of my friends recommend me to join the Digital Marketing Course in BrainStation. I was so excited to receive her advice and learned a lot from the ten weeks studying.
1. The contents of the course are very useful and practical, including Marketing Strategy, SEO, Google Analysis, Paid Ads., Email Marketing and so on.
2. The instructor is very professional and kind who always gave us guide and detail advice.
3. The final project needs to be used all knowledge and tools we learned, which is the best practice for me.
- Product Management- 1/20/2021Joe Williamson • Graduate • Course: Product Management Online • Campus: Online • Verified via LinkedInAn all-encompassing course in product covering a variety of frameworks, concepts and best practices for aspiring PMs.
- You Will Amaze Yourself- 1/15/2021Matt • Graduate • Course: Web Development • Campus: Toronto • Verified via LinkedInI came to the Web Development program at BrainStation from a design background. I had some experience with HTML and CSS, but no broader or deeper understandings of web technologies. The pace of the program is fast, and there were moments of feeling like I wouldn't be able to keep up. However, whenever I would stop to reflect on where I was the week before, I was consistently amazed at how much ground I had covered in such a short amount of time.
There are so many technologies and ideologies out there. It would be impossible for programs like those delivered at BrainStation to cover it all. The beauty of BrainStation is that it reveals to you just how much you can do. After completing the program, I now have the confidence to know that if I need to learn a new web technology quickly, I absolutely can.
Pros
Community mindset, confidence in independent learning, rich resources
Cons
There will be more than a few late nights / early mornings depending on your sleep schedule.
- Best investment I've ever made- 1/15/2021Misael Ortiz • Digital Marketer | Project Manager • Graduate • Course: Digital Marketing Bootcamp • Campus: Toronto • Verified via LinkedInMy experience as a BrainStation student was one of the best experiences in my life.
2020 was a year that could be defined with the word change. Like so many other people around the world, I was challenged by the pandemic and lost my job due to covid. Learning about digital marketing had been in my mind for years now, but it was one of those things that I didn't pursue before because of time, routine, being comfortable at work, etc.
The overall experience was very positive, starting with the learning advisors that made the time to answer every question I had and really walked me through the whole process step by step.
The program was fast-paced. I can't emphasize this enough. This is a challenging program that requires your full attention and dedication. I understand every student is different, but in my case, this was the only thing I was able to work on during those 3 months. Between lectures and working on my projects I probably spent around 60 hours per week. The program was challenging but in a very positive way. At first, I was a little bit intimidated by it, especially after 13 years since I attended school, but I was able to adapt very quickly with the support of my educators, my classmates, and family.
I would define my overall experience taking this program as "the perfect storm", (right timing, right educators, and right classmates). The educators (Josh Muirhead and Justin Lowe) were amazing, both of them leaders in their area of expertise and now with a commitment to share their knowledge in order to help shape a new generation of digital marketers. Learning from them was one of the most rewarding experiences during this time.
The instructors' styles of teaching were very different but in my opinion, I feel we received a very well-balanced learning experience. The content was relevant, the examples they used were always current with what's happening in the industry, and we were always encouraged to seek extra sources of information to stay updated with newer digital marketing trends.
The introduction of the capstone project wasn't only a perfect exercise to apply everything that we learned throughout the course but also the perfect output to start our own portfolio to use for potential job opportunities.
I could continue describing what my experience or my day to day was like during this time, but all I can say is that this was the best investment I've ever made.
- UX Design Course Review- 1/3/2021Michael Caracozza • Senior Scrum Master / Release Train Engineer • Student • Course: User Experience Design Online • Campus: Online • Verified via LinkedInI’ve taken two courses (UX Design and Product Management) and can’t recommend it highly enough. The instructors for their courses are world class, who are experts in their respective fields, so much of what they are teaching they have real-life experience in. Most instructions also work at some of the best tech companies around. They’re great at providing guidance about best practices for getting into the field and answering any questions between classes. I also found the online live course format to be an excellent option, which was not only convenient, but also provided a great platform to complete the required course work each week. The final projects are built upon weekly acquired knowledge all of which builds towards a full understanding of the topic by the course’s end. Really great courses for anyone looking to gain some new skills or learn about new technology topics.
- I can't emphasize TAKE THAT LEAP hard enough!!!!- 12/26/2020Rita M. • Web Developer • Graduate • Course: Full Stack Web Development - Wyncode • Campus: Miami • Verified via GitHubNever could I have imagined that one decision would have such a huge impact on my life.
With the pandemic of 2020, I found myself with plenty of time and no excuses but to face the question of what I truly wanted for my future. I had been looking at attending Wyncode for just over two years, and so I finally decided to take the plunge this past fall season.
My goodness... I never expected it to be the most impactful, amazing, and productive decision of my life thus far. Not to mention, a future and career that is completely transformed, to boot. I learned more than I had ever expected to (considering I was already sold on Wyncode over a few other places I had checked out, receiving far more than I expected was a rare and welcome surprise.) And I was provided with a deeply humane community that I never knew I could be a part of. I felt constantly supported throughout the entire experience, and I felt that I was truly pushed and challenged in the best ways imaginable, to learn and grow in both a technical and personal capacity. And one more time, my future career is now transformed? When they said boot-camp - they were not kidding!...
I have no words. If you are thinking about it - and you can theoretically do this (time, finances etc...)
Take the jump. I can't emphasize how huge that payoff was, that day when I decided to hit "submit" on my application.
