    Amazing!!!

    The instructor was very helpful, and the course was very easy to follow. It was such a pleasure to study under Anas and Silvia!! Lessons on UI were very informative, the only suggestion I have is to create an agreement early on to ensure that no student will be cutting off other students with questions or interrupting the class.

    UI Bootcamp - Brainstation

    Overall it was a wonderful experience with great instructors that have industry knowledge, they were patient and understanding with all the students. They made the effort to make time for 15-30 mins after the end of each class for anyone to answer questions or show off the work they were doing and get a design review.

    BrainStation

    It was a positive introduction to the world of data and a solid first step in my journey. 
    The instructors provided valuable insights, and the eight weeks were dynamic and interactive. 
    Overall, I would recommend BrainStation and their Data Analytics course.

    Perfect Class for Data Analytics Basics!

    I started a new role as a data analyst and this class was a nice refresher on advanced excel and a great introduction to the basics of SQL and Tableau. Our instructor Elana was so patient and kind and made sure she answered all of our questions. I loved that she used real use cases from her job at Roku to help us understand certain concepts. I enjoyed that it was in person and that it was once a week and only for a few months - it was very manageable. I would recommend this to anyone who...

    Very enjoyable, high level teaching

    I enrolled in the data analytics course to make my CV more well rounded having come from a humanities background at university. I have really enjoyed this course as an inviting and stimulating introduction to the world of data analytics. The teaching has been very good and has very much inspired me to go further into the data analytics field.

    Data Science Course at BrainStation

    The course was insightful and learned about regressions. This course focused on Python only. I wish we also got to work with other languages and wish it was longer than 8 weeks. Felt like we only brushed over the more important topics like linear regression and classification because the class was only 8 weeks. Wish we spent more time on it. The instructors are very helpful and always willing to explain concepts further and answer questions. I just wish we divided into the more important...

    Data Science Course

    I had a positive experience with this course overall. The content was enriching and insightful, significantly enhancing my understanding of the subject matter. While some classes were content-heavy, the comprehensive final project successfully tied everything together, providing a cohesive overview of the course material. Although having more time to review assignments would have been beneficial, I still found the course to be valuable and impactful.

    It is a interesting course

    In this course you need to have a more than basic knowledge of Excel, the classes are very interesting, they teach you how to use the necessary platforms to analyze data, I liked the course.

    Great refresher course!

    I’m in the marketing field but never hurts to get a refresher especially with the evolving trends and algorithm changes. I was given the opportunity to take this digital marketing course and I don’t regret it! It’s suitable for those really unfamiliar with the marketing basics but is still quite helpful for more seasoned marketers to hear from experienced professionals on what’s currently trending/working in the field. Great experience overall.

    Web Dev course - Disappointed

    The instructors are kind of just going through the motions. My questions aren’t readily answered. It takes a while for them to get back to you -a week typically- and it is very rushed during the class itself. Even “learner support” is unresponsive. It’s very frustrating since the tuition isn’t just disposable income for me. I’m worried because I planned on taking the longer software e bootcamp with them too. I wish I went with a different coding school. I qualified for the Grace Hopper p...

    Excellent professors and comprehensive content

    I did the part time data science boot camp and I had a great experience with it. The professors were extremely knowledgeable and helpful. The content has a heavy emphasis on machine learning - once you get a handle on data analysis with SQL and Python, you dive into ML very thoroughly and spend much of the rest of the bootcamp on it. After, there is a relatively short unit on big data manipulation using services like AWS. That was very useful, however, it was very much an intro to AWS as...
