    Data Analytics

    BrainStation is a great place to start if you want to get your foot in the door for Tech. They offer a wide range of programs and the instructors are extremely helpful. The classrooms are smaller which makes it much less intimidating to ask questions. The instructors are responsive outside of class that can help you with your homework. Highly recommend!

    Great Fast-Track UX Design Online Course

    I started my five-week online course without any knowledge of UX Design. I didn't know where to begin, though I found the idea of UX Design interesting so I searched online and found BrainStation. I read reviews and stories of others who chose to learn from them and it all seemed positive, so I booked a call with a learning advisor. 

    My learning advisor was so helpful and lovely and assisted me from start to finish with the enrolling process. I chose the 5-week course which meant ...

    Intensive but worth it!

    The bootcamp is 12 weeks and has (to most) an intensive workload. There is a mix of solo assignments, lab work, group projects, and solo projects. Although it may seem like a lot, the work is highly relevant to today's industry standards and is totally worth putting effort into.

    Hard work, but a great investment

    BrainStation's UX bootcamp taught me design skills that I hadn't been able to develop in my previous career. Instructors have valuable industry experience and assignments push you to apply the knowledge you learn in daily lessons. I met really smart, talented people and am excited to follow their design careers, The program required long hours of hard work and there were opportunities for improvement regarding the communication of assignment details, but overall I considered the program ...

    Couldn't have asked for better

    I attended the online cohort at the start of 2022. We had 2 big classes start at the same time, with an incredible group of students. Though we were a lot of students, the Education team made sure we felt supported. With time in one-on-ones, I was able to get the support I needed. The program is incredibly fast-paced, however, they prepare you so thoroughly for the workforce it's amazing. The network of BrainStation alumni is incredible, that is how I got my job offer.

    Web Dev Bootcamp

    Overall it just seemed crazy to me that in just 12 weeks they were able to get us from nothing to full-stack. Still, having recently graduated from the course I can personally tell you that my classmates and I were fairly confident in our abilities by graduation. Of course, each outcome is as diverse as its participants coming in, but overall, we can all create full-stack applications. 
    I would definitely recommend it to anyone wanting to either seek employment or just create full-sta...
