    Great Experience

     

    I signed up for the UX Design Fulltime course in January. For me first time experiences are important, especially when I am laying out alot of cash. I listen carefully to how the people within the organization speak and presnet themselves. I line that up with my interactions with the staff and see if it is consistent.
     

    I can honestly say that this was the case with BrainStation. From the top to the bottom the  staff was always transparent with how they deal with...

    Digital marketing

    I completed the Digital Marketing part-time program at Brainstation Vancouver, and I enjoy the program.

    Our course instructors Conner Gallaway and Laura Andersen were so passionate about digital marketing industry and shared many great case studies and their experiences with everyone which is really helpful for us to understand. I particularly like Conner asked, "What's new on social media?" every week at the beginning the class.

    Life-changing Experience

    I’ll start off by saying Wyncode did change my life. I am a college dropout who for 6 years was working retail and became miserable working in that industry. My friend got me into programming almost a year and a half before starting Wyncode and since then I tried to learn it on my own. The problem with that for me was that I needed some type of learning structure. I made the decision to quit my retail job and enroll in Wyncode. It was the best decision I have ever made. I now w...

    A Transformative Experience

    Attending Wyncode Academy is definitely one of the best choices I've made.  Prior to Wyncode, I had tried teaching myself to program, but between work and school I did not have the time to remain consistent with studying on my own, preventing me from making any noticeable progress.  When  I found out about Wyncode I felt that it would provide me with perfect learning environment needed  for me to effectively learn programming.

    Thanks to Wynco...

    UX Design Inmmersive (UXI)

    When I looked into this course I wasn't sure if you could be job ready after only taking a course for 10 weeks but decided it was worth a try. The course was a lot of work and coming from a background unrelated to tech and design I had a few learning curves. You get what you put into the course and if you work hard and complete as much of the work as you can you should leave ready to persue a career in UX design.

    C7

    Wyncode was a really good experience for me. I was in C7 Ft. Lauderdale and would highly recommend it. My caveats are that no matter what you learn in class it will never be enough for an entry level job. This isn't a dig against Wyncode but just the reality of learning to code. You'll immediately be given tasks in your first job that are out of your skillset and Wyncode will have taught you the necessary skills to figure it out, but not necessarily the answer.

    Very helpful and great experience

    I joined the Web Development Immersive course during the summer with a strong interest and hope for related career development. The course was very informative and the instructors and TAs were very helpful in every aspect. 

    Learning job-ready skills in 10 weeks bootcamp can definitely be very challenging. I had to put in a lot of effort to gain the maximum out of the course even with some background in computer science. But it was very much worth it.

    A super intense learning experience!

    I waited four months to write this review, because I wanted to have the benefit of hindsight. Now I can safely say that my experience at Wyncode was both intense and incredibly productive. The amount of subjects that are covered in nine weeks is mind-boggling, and the pace will push you to your limits. Make no mistake, the full time web development bootcamp is definitely what YOU make of it.

    UI Design (Visual Design)

    I can’t say enough about BrainStation. For those who are looking to learn a new skill or change careers altogether, these part-time courses are so ideal. I work full-time, so taking a full-time course isn’t an option for me, but the part-time course makes learning super flexible! 

    I’ve noticed that a lot of employers are looking for basic knowledge in HTML/CSS, so having additional insight of UI Design is complementary to that.

    Digital Marketing

    I just finished up the part time Digital Marketing course in Toronto. I recently graduated from a Marketing and Communications university undergrad. I wanted to take this course as an alternative to a 1 or 2 year post-graduate diploma at a college, and I'm very happy I made that decision. It was an expediated alternative to bridge the gap from a common business degree into a more specialized field. I took from the course exactly what I was looking. And whether it was the course helped or n...
