    Great experience!

    I took a UI design course. It was part-time course so I could manage my work time and learning time. 
    The teacher was amazing! I learned a lot from this course and I could use some knowledge from this course in my Job.
    I highly recommend this course!

    UX design

    The course was great, I am able to learn a lot of hands-on skills in UX design, and my classmates were passionate about taking part in class as well, which helps me review my project from different points of view.

    Quality but Expensive

    The curriculum and educators were all great, but the price is very suspect in hindsight. I ended up landing a pretty ideal job after the course but this was done on my own accords and not from their career center, even though they do a good job at staying in touch. The company really did not care that I had the brainstation diploma, only the project and my degree. So the value of the actual bootcamp is questionable.

    Good program, cannot guarantee you a job.

    I think that the BrainStation UX program has a great curriculum. I learned so much in my UX design program. The instructors really went out of their way to make sure that students understood the material. As it pertains to job assistance, the program cannot guarantee that you will get a job. After you graduate you're really on your own to do individual learning, networking, and applying. If you're expecting to get a job from immediately from a bootcamp (especially in today's economy) tha...

    Waste of Money

    I enrolled in Brainstation because it had good reviews. Unfortunately, I had a horrible experience and I wasn't the only one.
    We found out Brainstation recently implemented the part-time Boot Camp and it was highly unorganized, they use a zoom link that didn't work properly and classes started 30 minutes late for over 2 months. One of the teachers was rude and didn't want to teach at all, he didn't have any teaching certification. Every time we asked him to demonstrate how to do somet...

    Very attentive, some very experienced instructors

    During my time in the course I had been in a very small class and thus got a lot of one-on-one time with instructors which I found to be very helpful. There had been numerous instructors during my course, which was confusing at times but most of the instructors were very experienced and knew how to introduce computer languages well. Although I had had a few inexperienced instructors initially, BrainStation was very attentive to student requests and quickly replaced those with the better,...

    2022 September in-person Toronto

    The onboarding experience was a bit shaky. The admission team didn't set out the expectation unless I asked specific questions. I didn't know the first two-weeks were remote until I joined the program and the person who explained the time for the course misinformed by an hour early which I had to confirm after seeing it written on the admission agreement. I understand that the terms and conditions with software programs can change rapidly, but I wish the BrainStation team were a bit comm...

    Wonderful learning experience

    I had a wonderful experience taking the data analytics choose through Brainstation. The instructor was knowledgeable and engaging. Would recommend the course to anyone interested. As a professional already working, the course was a very good addition to my skills.

    So informative and valuable!

    This course and the instructors were great. We completed a project over the 10 weeks and every class led up to the presentation was so helpful. It was such a valuable learning experience for my career.

    Intense but rewarding experience

    The UX Design Bootcamp is what you make of it. Unlike some of my classmates, I knew going in that I needed to dedicate my most of my time and energy to get the full experience. I am making a career change and set my life up outside of the bootcamp in order to put all of my focus on it.

    The instructors are great, they are knowledgeable, insightful, are always available to help, and are constantly trying to get the most of you. They bring good energy into the classroom and try to ma...
