    Wyncode

    I just finished Wyncode’s second cohort, and I am happy to say that the quality of my instructors and the curriculum exceeded my expectations! Ed Toro, the lead instructor, is one of the most knowledgeable people in the industry. I am thankful to have been supported by such a knowledgeable and helpful group of Teaching Assistants, especially Frank.  I graduated with a business degree from Florida International University with no coding experience.  I recognized the need, ho...

    Miami tech - Wyncode is the best way to get involved

    Miami tech is for real.  Start-ups and established companies have an appetite for new developers in South Florida and Wyncode is the best way to get involved.

    I am a member of Wyncode's inaugural cohort and the value of my experience has continued to grow beyond the course content.

    Here are the ways in which Wyncode has enriched my life and why Wyncode is the best place for anyone with the ambition and ability to achieve greatness:

    Not worth the high cost.

    Brainstation is way overpriced. You are only paying for the name and the certificate, which I need to find out how valuable that is in the UX/UI industry. Please do your research and seek out alternatives. Course instructors were not even knowledgeable, and watching them struggle with Figma was embarrassing. Would not recommend it, even for beginners, because you can find most of the course content online for free. The only benefit is small class sizes and live instruction wherever you a...

    Great overview of UI Design

    Brainstation team and tools are super professional. Their platform is good and makes learning engaging. The content touches most important aspects of UI Design, but it's a bit rushed. I with there was more time to dive deeper into the topics, without having to do individual research specially for Figma tutorials. But really happy with it and totally recommend specially if you don't have any UI design background.

    A Good Introduction

    This course overall is a good introduction to User Interface design if you are very new to the field. The course material is not particularly challenging, but the coursework itself working towards a final project of a clickable prototype in Figma is quite a lot of work. The instructors are working in the field and have enough experience with the program to guide you through the development of the project and the course materials. Instructors are friendly, helpful, and full of good resour...

    Fun, informative, well rounded

    I took the cyber security certification course and thoroughly enjoyed it. It was very informative and helpful to get a grasp of what cyber security is and what factors go into it. I would recommend this course to any beginners in the space to get a good foundation to build upon.

    Great classroom experience and collaboration

    I studied Product management and had a great experience in classroom setting. Content can be bit more detailed, it felt short of what I have seen my partner working on as product manager. The product strategy roadmap is great and I loved everyone's interaction  sharing there experience from professional experience

    Learned New Skills in a New Area!

    the UX class at Brainstation was a great way to dip my toes into a new field of work. Working in product marketing, UX design has always been something I've been interested in but never knew anything about. After taking this course, I have a great idea of what this field of work entails, and have learned skills around empathy, process and creativity that I didn't have before.

    The instructors were so helpful and willing to guide the class based on the needs of the students. It moved at a quick pace, but there were a ton of options to practice your skills and ask for help as needed.

    Fun yet Hard Work!

    This bootcamp was content-heavy with some unrealistic deadlines for projects, however, the instructors were always very responsive and open to helping you out. I could really tell that the instructors genuinely cared about the students and wanted to help and mentor them as much as possible, which felt really nice. I completed the part-time program, which lasted 8 months, but it really flew by! The course content is structured really well and they offer really valuable skills that you put...

The instructors were great, incredibly knowledgable and helpful and always very happy to help. I finished the course by preparing a digital marketing strategy, and...
