i'm currently enrolled in the intro to iOS development course and it's great. I feel confident in my basic knowledge of iOS development from the course already. Well done BrainStation!

Intro to Web Development - part time
If your goal is to get a handle on web development in a supportive environment full of living beings I think you will be well served. Much of the information may be available on-line for next to nothing, but still there is something about being in a class with real students and instructors that is particuarly motivating. It clearly is not meant to be as immersive or intensive as an 8 hour a day course as it is 3 hours 1 day a week plus whatever time you put into it outside of cl...
If your goal is to get a handle on web development in a supportive environment full of living beings I think you will be well served. Much of the information may be available on-line for next to nothing, but still there is something about being in a class with real students and instructors that is particuarly motivating. It clearly is not meant to be as immersive or intensive as an 8 hour a day course as it is 3 hours 1 day a week plus whatever time you put into it outside of class. Anyone going into should understand this and not expect miracles - although I am impressed by what I am able to do now!
By neccessity the course focuses on a few big technologies, namely HTML5, CSS and Bootstrap with a touch of JS. There is no job assistance in this part-time course which is understood going in. It's geared towards projects rather than tests - so it's up to you to use what you learn - no grades are given. The course leaders are often soliciting input from students in order to improve the material and delivery and I think with this intention to improve, it should only get better with time.

Fantastic, interactive course
I chose to attend BrainStation's Digital Marketing class because the part time evening hours fit my full-time work schedule, and I attended a workshop where I got a taste of their interactive teaching style.
What I didn't expect was for BrainStation to surpass my expectations entirely. The class has 3 instructors that are all highly knowedgeable in the fields, as well as expremely passionate about sharing what they know. My classmates are from all levels - some are starti...
I chose to attend BrainStation's Digital Marketing class because the part time evening hours fit my full-time work schedule, and I attended a workshop where I got a taste of their interactive teaching style.
What I didn't expect was for BrainStation to surpass my expectations entirely. The class has 3 instructors that are all highly knowedgeable in the fields, as well as expremely passionate about sharing what they know. My classmates are from all levels - some are starting a business, some have marketing experience, and some are students fresh out of school. Yet they've taken the time to learn what our individual class wants to learn, and tailored the lessons and activities to the needs of our class. Plus, there's one on one time to work on our individual "projects".
If you take tis course, I highly suggest you come in with a project in mind, whether it's promoting your own business, starting a blog, whatever. It'll help you focus the lessons and help guide your questions and what you want to learn. You'll get the most out of your experience this way.

Amazing Educational Experience!!
The way BrainStation's classes are structutred are exceptional! The instructors really make sure you understand the lecture and since the classes are generally small, there is a lot of opportunity to ask questions and clarfy concepts. Even the classmates I had were driven and passionate making BrainStation an even better environment to work in. The instructors are extremely knowledgable and try to make the class as enjoyable as possible. I loved the BrainStation...

Great learning environment
What I liked best about BrainStation was the relaxed atmosphere in the classroom. It was really laid back and collaborative. Instead of the teacher talking for 3 straight hours, there was a lesson, and then we had time to work on our projects and ask questions. All the learning was hands on and I applied most things I learned directly to my project. Everyone else in the class was friendly and gave me lots of feedback on my work.

Love the Educational Model
I'm taking BrainStation's Digital Marketing course and so far it's been awesome. I'm a university student, so BrainStation is a breath of fresh air. I'm used to lectures with hundreds of students and 1 instructor. My Digital Marketing class at BrainStation is about as far from that as possible. The class is small and we have 3 instructors. All of them are so helpful and knowledgeable. They're always happy to answer our questions and provide feedback ...

I love being able to collaborate with the other students on projects and bounce ideas off each other. Everyone is friendly and eager to learn, which makes class a lot of fun. Instead of dreading lectures like I do at university, I can't wait for my classes once a week.

Intense
It's hard to sum up my experience at Wyncode. It was definitely one of the hardest and most gratifying 9 weeks of my life. Within that short time you will learn the basics and fundementals of web development and more importantly teach yourself how to continue learning well beyond the program, meeting amazing people all along the way. The pressure to do well is entirely in your hands, though, and that can either drive you, or cripple you. That being said, if you stick to it no...

The pressure to do well is entirely in your hands, though, and that can either drive you, or cripple you. That being said, if you stick to it not giving up when it gets hard, than you will walk away with so much more than you might have expected. It can change the way you live your life.

Wyncode has been one of the most challenging yet rewarding experiences I've gone through. I had no previous coding experience and was able to obtain my goals. I highly recommend this program to anyone!

Wyncode is an incredible program that in just 9 weeks teaches the fundamentals of programming and gives you a strong base in coding so you can keep learning. This program helps not only in your technical skills but also in your business basics. They will definitely help you land a great job.

It's worthy.
So, if you are willing to quit your job (if it applies), sleep less than 6 hours per day (sitting in a computer) or listen to a class that you barely can understand, you are ready to do Wyncode. You learn how to build stuff and to know how stuff is made, start making your own projects, and work in an awesome environment. This is the right place to do it in Miami.
Cheers!
