AnonymousStudent • Digital Marketing Course • TorontoSep 13, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/AThis course is a great jumping off point for all things digital marketing!
This digital marketing bootcamp is the perfect overview of all things in the field. As someone new to the digital marketing sphere, I feel well-equipped to dive in further. I would suggest really taking advantage of the instructors as a resource and taking the course seriously! It is not just a great thing to add to your resume, it's an awesome experience to grow your knowledge base. And the take aways can be applied to so many different fields of work!- AnonymousStudent • Data Analytics Course Online • OnlineSep 12, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Data Analytics
I think this class is a good primer but would be improved by greater focus in labs v. instruction. The labs are rushed and difficult to gain practical knowledge in. I think in order to be proficient in any of these tools I would need to take another class that delved deeper into the tools. Maria was a great resource and very helpful and knowledgable. - AnonymousStudent • Data Analytics Course Online • OnlineSep 12, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Data Analytics
The course was great! I learned a lot about SQL and tableau. However, I thought that we would do a lot more analysis and less excel formulas in the first little bit of the course. I think I would have benefited from learning a lot more on modeling of data, and interpreting data visually. It was very helpful though! Will look forward to any more courses that I take from BrainStation. I will definitely apply my knowledge in my future endeavors. - AnonymousGraduate • User Experience Design Course • New York CitySep 11, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Informative, challenging, and exciting
BrainStation's UX Design Course was an awesome beginner class for those new to the field. The teacher have a variety of different perspective that bring inspiration, engagement, and forward-thinking to the field that help you to level up your thinking and work. Although this is a UX course versus a Bootcamp, I walked away with a full case-study as well as feeling prepared to build out a portfolio.

The UX boot camp was very insightful and hopefully provided a good preparation for work life. The teachers worked relentlessly and were very supportive most of the time. The teachers were also supported by a very knowledgable teacher assistant.

The teachers worked relentlessly and were very supportive most of the time. The teachers were also supported by a very knowledgable teacher assistant. The mission is to give you as much information as possible in 12 weeks and make you work in as many projects as possible to include in your portfolio. What it is not told you is that you are expected to dedicate yourself full time including the weekends, meaning you won't have much time for doing anything else in your life besides work. There are times with multiple deadlines or with very laborious ones that actually take longer than expected and you'll often feel frustrated and behind. You can book in 15 minutes, one to one slots with the teachers but I found this to be very insufficient and always in a rush. The premises of the school are not quite inspiring, bland white and with serious acoustic issues inside and outside the classrooms. The ergonomy of the classrooms is very bad - the whiteboards locations in the classrooms simply don't work being located on side walls with impossible visibility, the chairs are too big and clunky and there are plug batteries scattered all over the floor. One negative point is you are rushed to leave school at 6p.m as there are other courses and multiple events happening with the main purpose of market the school to prospective students, so if you want to work longer hours you have to go somewhere else. Beware of the marketing techniques of selling being in the middle of Shoreditch and of the tech community - this is totally irrelevant when you don't have time to do anything but work. The long awaited Demo Day when students are showing off their projects is unfortunately quite voided of hiring managers from companies. There are plenty of shady caracthers you are not really sure what they are there for. Showing off the project to people outside of the school community was however a good training experience. Overall, it's a great experience but not without flaws. - AnonymousGraduate • Data Science Bootcamp • VancouverSep 08, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

Course Curriculum:
The program itself is very well-structured, with a clear connection between lectures. It starts from the basics and progresses seamlessly to advanced data science topics. The curriculum is also regularly updated to align with recent industry developments, such as the algorithms behind ChatGPT, among others. The materials provided, along with external links to further expand our knowledge, were valuable additions. Overall, I was thoroughly impressed with the course structure.
Faculties:
The educators are exceptionally friendly and approachable. They make a concerted effort to simplify complex concepts for better understanding. Despite the program's intensity, they consistently motivate us to stay on track toward our goals and provide continuous feedback throughout the bootcamp. Additionally, having a Teaching Assistant (TA) was a valuable resource for us to seek assistance with questions or any capstone-related inquiries.
Professional Development:
Finally, the career support team equipped us with numerous tips to excel during the job search process, from refining our resumes to developing essential communication skills for interviews. They also conducted workshops from time to time, allowing us to practice and improve these skills.

First and foremost, the caliber of the instructors was outstanding. Their profound knowledge and evident passion for UX design made the learning experience exceptional. Their real-world insights and industry expertise added depth to the curriculum. Furthermore their feedbacks in 1 to 1 were quite helpful in improving my craft and motivated to push myself.
Furthermore, the collaborative aspect of the bootcamp (such as the sprints that we had to undertake) was invaluable. Collaborating with peers from diverse backgrounds fostered a multifaceted approach to problem-solving and encouraged creative thinking. - AnonymousGraduate • Data Science Bootcamp • LondonSep 08, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Excellent Learning Experience
Overall a very positive experience of the data-science bootcamp. The lectures were well structured and offered a comprehensive walk from SQL and data cleaning to Neural Networks and AWS. The quality and industry knowledge of the instructors was excellent, which was invaluable in giving context to the material. Weekly assignments were great for practicing code implementation. I would highly recommended. - AnonymousGraduate • Data Science Bootcamp • LondonSep 08, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Comprehensive, challenging and rewarding
The data science bootcamp was well-structured and delivered to a very high standard. The educators are experienced and committed to ensuring student success. One of the most challenging but, at the same time, highly enriching parts of the course - is the individual student project, which helps to start building your professional portfolio. Overall, there is a good balance between theoretical and practical knowledge. Fantastic London campus! Very happy I committed to this bootcamp! - AnonymousGraduate • Data Science Bootcamp • LondonSep 08, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
BrainStation Data Science Bootcamp
Awesome experience! Both the lead instructors in data science were excellent and the course was well structured. Course is intense in terms of time commitment and workload, but community is supportive. Course covers a lot of breadth, lots of ground covered in 3 months
