I took the Data Science (online live) course with Brainstation in the fall of 2019. For context to this review I am not in a technical career (I work in HR) but I study computer science part time and have about 18 months experience programming, mostly in Java. This is my second Brainstation course, following a part time web development course I completed in 2018.
Initial impressions to this course were very good – there is pre-coursework to be completed prior to the first session...

This is my second Brainstation course, following a part time web development course I completed in 2018.
Initial impressions to this course were very good – there is pre-coursework to be completed prior to the first session and the initial pace of the course is gentle, which gave me a chance to get my bearings with Python, its syntax and Jupyter Notebooks (which is the application used to teach the material). The pace rapidly increases however and the course covers many core data science concepts over the weeks that follow. This was one of the things I liked most about the course – as it covers a broad range of subjects you get a solid overall understanding of the foundations behind data science, which sets you up nicely for further study and research in the future.
Parin Shah was our instructor for this course – he was very good. Very patient teaching style and happy to slow down and go over things as many times as necessary for them to sink in. Would recommend.
As for the platform (doing the course online live rather than in person) this was good and offered more interaction with my peers on the course than I expected. I would recommend a 2 screen set-up for this course if you have the hardware available – it is a great to be able to go through the material with the instructor on one screen while trying things out as you go along on the other screen as well.
Overall this was a great experience – I know a lot more about data science and python than I did a few months ago! If you are someone looking to start studying in data science I would for sure recommend this.
