User Interface Design - Online
I chose to enroll in the online UI course at Brainstation. With my work schedule along with other commitments, I thought that would be the best approach for me.

I know that it was a part time course, but it would’ve been better to have more practice in class. Overall though, I enjoyed my time at BrainStation.

Intensive and Rewarding Learning Experience!
Coming from a traditional accounting/finance background, I wanted to build the necessary skills to pivot my career into the realm of quantitive trading using machine learning. Reflecting on my personal experience, it was quite incredible how much we learned within 12 weeks of intense studying. There is no opportunity to slack around as we move incredibly fast, therefore, it is imperative to keep up with daily lectures and assignments. What you put into the program is what you will get out!...

The instructors were friendly and did a good job of explaining complicated topics in a relatively simple manner. I appreciated that the instructors allocated time covering fundamental statistics and general programming before diving deeper into more complex topics. Furthermore, they were also happy to answer my plethora of questions and took time to help out wherever possible. As a whole, the Brainstation community is welcoming and the staff put in significant amounts of effort to ensure everyone has a positive experience.
If I could do it over again, one thing I would ask for is an additional four weeks to the program. This would allow us to cover more advanced concepts in further detail while also granting more time for our capstone projects.
This program helped uncover a hidden passion for machine learning which inspired me to advance my knowledge even further in a post-graduate degree focused on this subject.

Wyncode Review- C33
My recommendation to anyone coming to Wyncode is to spend as much time prior to the course as possible learning about coding. Don't rely on just the prework to prepare you for the course. Subscribe to youtube channels about coding, complete the coding modules on code academy, and learn as much about CSS, HTML, and JavaScript as possible so the first few weeks of the course go as smooth as possible.

Incredible Experience
I had an incredible experience at Wyncode. The curriculum is great, the instructors are very helpful and they really work hard to make sure you get the most out the program you can. The program is by no means easy, but if you are willing to put in the work you can get through it. More than just teaching technical skills, they teach you how to learn quickly and efficiently and how to be comfortable being uncomfortable. #NeverStopLearning.

Full Time Web Dev Review - BrainStation
I am going to keep this short and concise as I know everyone is busy! My time at Brainstaion was one of the best three month periods of my life. I came into the course unsure of the result, and concerned about the course load. I was pleasantly surprised to find that the learning environment was malleable, and the educators adjusted to suite your needs as well as strengths and weaknesses. From my point of view, their education model is somewhat of a futuristic approach, mainly in the sense ...

I was pleasantly surprised to find that the learning environment was malleable, and the educators adjusted to suite your needs as well as strengths and weaknesses. From my point of view, their education model is somewhat of a futuristic approach, mainly in the sense that you feel like you are learning and moving through every day on campus. I strongly reccomend BrainStation to anyone interested in the fields they specialize in!

Intense But Well Worth It!
The data science bootcamp held in Vancouver is an intensive and fast-paced program. I was impressed by the amount of real-world skills attained over the course of only 12 weeks. Despite the limited time constraint, the instructors did an effective job at conveying the key fundamentals of data science/machine learning. If there had been an additional few weeks to the bootcamp, we would have likely spent additional time on more complex topics. Overall, the instructors were friendly and...

Overall, the instructors were friendly and happy to help out with any questions. Highly recommend this program to anyone interested in a career within data science!
What you put into this program is what you will get out. The more effort one puts into mastering the material outside of the classroom, the greater the benefit to them when working on their final capstone project and overall success with recruiting.

I was at a point in my career where I felt like I only had soft skills. I felt as though looking back in my career I hadn't really "progressed" that far in experience and when looking forward I felt a lack of trajectory.

BrainStation gave me control over my career. I am now learning something new every week and even from the point of graduation (a few months ago) I feel as if there's an ocean of knowledge and skill gained.
I'm now working full time at a fintech company and I'm making about 20k more than I was before. This gets me excited because not only do I love what I do, but I get compensated well for it (even for an entry level position).
For anyone questioning whether they should take this course you'll need to ask yourself these few questions. Are you ready for a challenge? Can you sit in front of a computer for hours on end trying to learn (which does get easier with time)? And are you willing to take a risk to give control over your career? - BonnieApplicant • Web Development • TorontoApr 15, 2019Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Great Class
Within a short period of time I was able to learn so much about web development. In the end I was able to make my own website and have it be responsive. This course has sparked my interest in coding and now I want to learn more!
