    The course is intense and rewarding at the same time. 5 projects in 10 weeks, and juggling with lessons, seminars, meetups and schoolwork.
    However, I met friends that stayed beyond the end of the course, and valuable knowledge that helped me where I am working now. Also, GA has an excellent network of alumni and coursemates where i can seek help from. GA is also helpful in terms of assisting us with our job search and subsidies.

    Completed a 5-week online course. For 5 weeks, it was a good amount of information and learning. Definitely good for beginners looking to learn more about digital marketing. The online course was very flexible and accommodating to my needs as I am a full-timer. I was able to complete units in my own time and 1 on 1 mentor hours were very flexible. Was also able to extend the course for a couple of weeks to ensure I could complete the units properly. Support team was great and the content was insightful.

    Great introductory course to data science and great material. However, classes were full of slides and actual practice was about 20% of the course which made it a bit boring. Even tough we talk to the instructor many times about this he refused to chaged his metodology.

    Getting the skills required to be a full stack developer could take 6 months to a year. However, enrolling in General Assembly's WDI program allows you to acquire those skills in 3 months. The instructors, fellow students, and campus on GA were top notch and enabled me to be engaged, excited, and learn a vast sum of knowledge with great joy. The cirriculm was upto date with technology in demand, which is no small feat considering how quickly things change, and thorough with students required to devote everything in order to compherend and master the material teached. As with any bootcamp what you put in is what you will get out, but the help/attention from the instructors and other students made life a little bit easier. I cannot reccomend GA enough.

    I selected the 1 week intense course in Product Management. I chose this because it aligned with my schedule given the I was working full-time. The class size was small, no more than 12 of us and everyone came from diverse backgrounds. This provided a unique aspect to the class when working together during group projects. Our instructor, Aditi Joshi, was extremely knowledgable about the subjects covered and showed personal interest in our success.

    The GA facility was an incredible space to learn in during and after class. I found myself spending majority of my time at the facility because I felt more encouraged to get work done. GA's facility, staff, and program was one I am very grateful for having been a part of. I highly recommend taking a course here whether your looking to learn something new, expand on a current skill, or simply want to be surrounded by people looking to better their lives.

    I 100% honestly believe if it wasn't for my instructor, Shanu, I wouldn't have enjoyed it as much as I did.  Even after a long day at work, I still look forward going to class because she outlines the course to be relatable,  straightforward and engaging. She was flexible when it came to assignments if it was reasonable, she provided honest feedback on our progress and you can see she sincerely cares. Huge shout out to the GA staff in SF too for being accommodating. 

    The course itself really helped me apply the concepts to my real life projects at my workplace.  The only pro I can think of was it was a bit challenging using Schoology but that is more of their fault. ;)

    I would definitely recommend GA to any of my family, friends, peers, strangers, pretty much anyone looking to further their education in any of the courses GA offers. It is definitely worth the investment.

    GA was exactly what I needed, as I was coming off of a bad experience at a graduate program in Los Angeles. I was looking to learn real-world skills, that are relevant to today's work. GA gave me exactly what I was looking for, and then some. I felt like I was becoming more professionally capable every day, I was able to work with talented people, and make great connections. The GA environment allows everyone to help everyone. It is competitive, but it is a friendly competition. I felt that my teachers and staff were more than qualified, and they truly cared about the future of everyone in the class. The way that the course was set up, there was no rest, and I liked that. I signed up and paid for the class because I wanted to push myself and learn, and that is what I was able to do. At GA, you get out what you put in. I put in a lot, and the returns were immeasurable.

    Overall I found General Assembly to be a great experience and was extremely valuable for me in making the transition into UX. When I finished the program I felt like I had the absolute minimum skills necessary for a UX Designer but I was able to build upon the foundation after many months of additional learning and practice. The program was heavy on research, presenting, collaborative teamwork, so it allowed me to work on skills that were not my greatest strengths.

    GA has been great. It has opened the doors to a new career for me. 
    Our instructors were amazing, super helpful, knowledgable and personable. 
    The course was very intense, with tons of information in the class and a lot of homework. The course has definitely helped me build a foundation for understanding how programming works. And prepare us students for the real world projects.
    Overall I was very happy and have a great job now and feel accomplished with my career.

    I have spoken to my attorney and I have been assured there is nothing the General Assembly legal team can do about my factual review. DO NOT LET THEM INTIMIDATE YOU.

    I was harassed constantly while attending the WDI course and despite making this proof evident to General Assembly, the bully was not disciplined, instead allowed to thrive. Clear violations of the alleged code of conduct were ignored. I have been told this is not the first time where rules were broken and the perpetrator was not reprimanded.

    Most of the harassment was sexual in nature which is not advantageous to an educational environment.

    The 10 weeks UX immersive bootcamp at General Assembly in Sydney was one of the best learning experiences of my life! The UX course was a good mix of theory and practice. We covered both research and design and worked on 5 projects to put everything we learned into practice. My instructor was very passionate about UX and had extensive industry knowledge, he provided a lot of constructive feedback throughout the course. The outcomes program was great, they helped me tailor my linkedin/resume/portfolio and assisted me until I found a job. Overall my experience at General Assembly was great, I can't recommend it highly enough!

    Over the 12 weeks the course covered a great deal of content and was structured in a way that was very conducive for learning.
    The course content and the network of people I met through General Assembly, helped me change career and become a Frontend developer in a full time job.

    Having recently undertaken the accelerated Data Analytics course in Mar-18, I can safely say the course was well taught from start to finish. The instuctor, Joana and teaching asistant, Jasmine, were extremely approachable and made sure all students had a firm grasp of the contents and the concepts covered on the course. Alongside this, the facilities and staff at the General Assembly created a great flexible working environment which allowed students to continue with course work in the evenings in a safe and comfortable space.

    I took the UXDI class and absolutely loved it. It was the perfect fit - instruction from an experienced designer, the theory behind UX design, real world examples, and hands on projects. My favorite part of the class was the hands-on client project. Being able to work on a project that had real world goals and impact made the work I had put in earlier in the class all come together. Plus, having that in my portfolio was huge boon when finding a new job! 

    The job support is thorough and well structured. While studying in the immersive, there are weekly assignments to ramp up your application process. It was nicely spread out so it was manageable and effective. By the end of our cohort I had updated my LinkedIn, resume, cover letter, and learned so many skills I would need when applying to a new job. Julie the outcomes coach is AMAZING.

    The community at GA is fantastic. I became close friends with people in my cohort, in the other cohorts down the hall, and the GA staff. Naida works at GA and is such a supportive and encouraging person. It was great having her and others there - it turned what could be a scary transition period into a fun time of personal growth and bonding. I was able to call GA my second home while I was there, and I love going back for alumni events.

    An incredible (and practical) introduction to data science. I wish college courses were like this. It was so much information. Since we applied everything we learned I got a lot out of this class and can do a lot more than I expected I would with only 60 hours of class time. For me, pre work and homework too about double the estimated time but it was definitely worth the effort. Those with prior experience in either statistics or programming will have a leg up, but it's not necessary to get started.

    I had no development experience prior to attending this course, and was completely unsure what to expect. I can only say that it was the best thing I could have possibly done for my career. 18 months later I'm still loving my new career and couldn't have done it without the support of the people at GA in Sydney. It was a hard 3 months but I would do it again in a heartbeat. I had so much fun throughout, and I couldn't have asked for more support from my instructors and the rest of the team there. 

Success!
