    Great for making a career transition

    Coming from a "non-traditional" background (law) makes the lead instructor Jeff's mastery of a whole range of data engineering subject matters all the more amazing. 

    For someone like me seeking to transition to data engineering from a "non-traditional" background (law and international relations), Jigsaw Labs' curriculum covering in-demand skills, coupled with Jeff's attentiveness (one-on-one office hours in addition to regular classes), has been a huge boost to my domain knowledg...

    Great foundation for Data Science

    I was in the  Programming For Data Science class.  The course schedule was part-time (nights and weekends), which was a major reason I signed up. 

      The course is a great place to start if you are interested in data science. If you can't access and manipulate data, you can't be a data scientist. The curriculum is an intro to all the basics in programmi...

    Most Cost-Effective Education I've Ever Received!!

    With the training I received from Jigsaw Labs, I was able to switch over to my company’s IT department and fully transition into a Data Engineering role. There are a lot of courses out there that just have you click around a cloud service, run a few lines of Python code, and then give you a certificate. Jigsaw Labs, however, properly conditions its students to navigate complex code bases and debug code properly. Although the tools I use in my job aren’t the exact tools I’ve learned in cl...

    Amazing learning and professional experience

    My time working with Jigsaw and Jeff set me up for the career shift I wanted to make and helped me acquire the skills and experiences I needed to be successful. Jigsaw is an intensive yet fulfilling program that not only focused on helping students gain the technical skills needed but also helped us to find and participate in various projects to build our experiences & resumes. I learned so much during my time with Jigsaw and Jeff created a supportive environment where we all worked ...

    Outstanding Data Engineering Bootcamp!

     I carefully chose Jigsaw Labs after more than two months of assessing different boot camps and I would do the same thing! You get the knowledge, skills, and support you will need to start a career in data engineering. In addition to a great curriculum that covers software engineering and data pipeline fundamentals, the instructor emphasizes the process of solving a problem with programming. That is to first understand the problem, create a step-by-step plan of how you will solve it, exe...

    Bootcamp with Real Value

    Even as someone with prior programming experience, I learned a lot about fundamental software/data engineering principles and about popular technologies and tools that are widely used in the data engineering space. His project-based curriculum is great for giving you hands-on experience that allows you to simultaneously develop your coding skills and learn new tools. Everyday you're paired up with one or two other students, which gives you an opportunity to connect with other passionate ...

    Fantastic Data Engineering Bootcamp

    Jeff's passion for data engineering and teaching is evident throughout the course. He took the time to make sure everyone understood the topics being discussed and was always open to questions. One of the best parts about the curriculum is the focus on project/lab based work. The hands-on approach was vital for learning SQL, Python, and key data engineering topics. Jeff and the excellent TAs would cycle through the zoom breakout rooms to ensure that nobody was stuck. I really enjoyed lea...

    Fantastic Date Engineering Bootcamp !

    Jigsaw Labs Data Engineering Bootcamp was a great experience for me.

    I've been a Software Developer for many years, and was looking for a change and decided I would like to pursue a job in Data Engineering. 

    After doing some research online, I contacted several Data Engineering bootcamps to feel them out and try to find a good fit. I wanted more than just the education, but a process for finding that first job as well. 

    Most bootcamps, as soon as I started talking to...

    Don't be afraid to take the leap!

    Jeff and Jigsaw Labs have helped changed the trajectory of my life and career over the course of a few short months.  We went through the essentials of Python and SQL, and then we dove into intensive work with dbt, Docker, Airflow, Snowflake, Fivetran.  The paired programming was very helpful for the learning process, where someone could help you fill in the blank, and you can do the same for them.  

    With the newly gained knowledge and experience, Jeff matched us with externships ...

    Brilliant Instructor, Brilliant Curriculum - JigSaw Labs is the Best Program Around

    Jig Saw Labs Backend Engineering bootcamp was an incredibly rigorous, challenging, and rewarding investment and experience. I'm a former middle school principal so I know a few things about good instruction - in particular, good online instruction since the last two years forced us to determine how to effectively provide online instruction tantamount to in person instruction. Beyond his genius as a developer, Jeff is an incredible instructor, which is fueled by a holistic and rigorous cu...

    A Must Attend!!

    I had a wonderful experience with the Jigsaw Labs career course, and would strongly recommend moving forward on it!! Jeff did a superb job of distilling complex topics into manageable concepts and tasks. I believe there might be only a handful of instructors/camps available that have both the competence and pedagogical know-how to communicate these topics well. The consistency of labs, where you apply hands-on experience, and thoughtful layering of the topics, provided an amazing acceler...

    Best instructor you can hope for

    Take this bootcamp if you are seriously considering a Data Engineering career. Jeff will challenge you to grow, but also offers a lot of guidance if/when needed. A lot of the topics covered have helpful labs, and the class structure promoted pair and individual practice as well as support you need when making a career change.  I got my job offer though his career services, but you have to do your part in studying and preparing. He strategically vets hiring managers and recruiters your wa...
