    Perfect course for those who want to transition to UX

    The course is well structured and taught by people working in the industry. Teachers have a teacher assistant who helps with the flow of the course. The class deals with both the theoretical and skills elements of UX and UI. I would highly recommend it for the price.

    Great springboard for launching into a new career

    I thought that the tutors were really supportive and proactive in helping us all learn with lectures, projects, design sprints all geared towards ensuring we have all the necessary tools for industry. It is a very fast paced course, but I would say it was great that this could all be condensed into 3 months. BrainStation is a great place for networking and building new relationships in tech.

    Intense but worth every moment

    Just completed the 3-month full time UX Design Bootcamp at BrainStation and it was the best decision I could've made for my career and myself. 

    Some positives: 
    Content-wise, the course covered everything you'd need to know to become a UX/ UI Designer -- from UX fundamentals, to motion design to responsive design. I particularly liked that the course had a big focus on both UX and UI (I'm conscious that some other bootcamps do not offer as much focus on the UI side, which is so...

    Fantastic bootcamp and amazing experience

    Amazing bootcamp that teaches a wide range of data science concepts while going into a good amount of depth. The teachers are enthusiastic, extremely knowledgeable, and very supportive. I feel confident in the topics I have been taught and feel confident applying for a position in data science.

    The instructors motivation and willigness to help is just remarkable!

    It's quite hard to put into words how grateful I feel for BrainStation! When I first started looking into bootcamps I was a little bit sceptical about the concept of becoming a "Software Developer" in just 12 weeks. 

    However, after having finished the bootcamp just now I am more than just blown away. Everything felt super professional from the first calls with the learning advisor, to the interview process, curriculum, and teachers. Massive appreciation go out to Andrew, and Jon w...

    Hard, intense, rewarding, meaningful, fun

    This Bootcamp was intense and pushed me in many ways, but it taught me so much and made me create things I had no idea I could do. My educators and peers were there as support throughout this journey which was so helpful. I have learnt so much about the industry and have met many amazing and talented people. Genuinely grateful for this entire experience and recommend this Bootcamp to anyone eager to learn a lot in a short amount of time in order to improve themselves and be successful in...

    Best Learning Experience by far!

    At first I was skeptical because there would be a lot of information and lessons taught within a very small timeframe. But I came to realize once I started my first week that the educators were all very nice and approachable.
    The lessons are broken down in a way that is easy to follow with very minor bumps (like learning Javascript for the first time). The bootcamp is very hands-on with the projects and each project is broken into sprints each week that corresponds to the specific les...

    Amazing!

    Great instructors, very human approach, extremely challenging at times, but definitely worth your time! Some projects seem impossible to produce in such a short time, but the educators really have our backs. One of the biggest takeaways from the bootcamp is definitely that programming is a TEAM SPORT, which was very eye-opening for me.

    Waste of money

    The BrainStation Python Course is the biggest grift on the internet.  The instructors were good but the syllabus was empty.  It was not worth the amount charged for it.  I felt they just took advantage of my lack of knowledge about what Python entails to sell a very substandard product.  They also claimed that there would be a complete collaborative Python Data project.  Spoiler alert:  That did not exist.
