​​Completely unhappy, and the worst experience ever at University of Kansas - Trilogy BootCamp Data Analytics.  I wish I could give zero star, but the review is not letting me. The teaching assistance was the worst experience, and the reason why I dropped the course and they had to return me back the $10,000 that was already paid.  I had an issue with a TA named [name redacted]. The issue happened on a Saturday November 6, 2021 from 12 pm to 2pm. The TA named [name redacted] refused to help me during the two office hours. In these two office hours there were two students, one named [name redacted] and the other student was me. I joined the office hours because I had questions about Python, a current topic that was going to start covering two days later after the office hours.  This person named [name redacted] and who works as TA, refused, rejected and denied to help me for many multiple reasons, among these multiple reasons I am including but not limited to Number 1. He was mad at me because he asked me to help the other student during the office hours; I mean during his work hours of Teaching Assistance; technically he was asking me to do his job in explaining VBA scripts to the other student named [name redacted]. I said that the reason I joined the office hours was because I had questions about Python and not for me to teach the other student, and I said to him that was not my job, but it was certainly his job, and that is why he gets paid for it. ​This Teaching Assistant named [name redacted] is very low moral ​professional​ in the teaching team, I hope they replace him soon as well as the unhelpful three ladies that I will mention below in this review. This TA named [name redacted] is completely horrible and shameful. Number 2. He ​sent me a message via ​slack saying that he was focused on helping people who needed his help. Maybe he tried to say that I did not need his help​ when my payment of $10,000 was already in the bank account of Trilogy and KU​. He also said in that ​message via ​slack that he was giving priority to the current topic of the course, my questions were about Python, and Python was going to be covered exactly and precisely two days after he refused to help me.  Number 3. Racism and discrimination. I am Hispanic and his attitude toward me was rude, jerk, ​shameful, unmoral, ​and ​he thought that he could treat me as he pleased and maybe he thought that I was never going to report him. I felt excluded during the last two office hours, his last approach in these two last hours was shameful and disgusting, very unprofessional​, ​completely biased​, hateful with discrimination and racist. I felt he took it​ very​ personal for the ​fact​ that I said that I was attending the office hours to ask ​him ​questions about Python, not ​for me to ​do his job of teaching other students about VBA. I reported the issue to KU and Trilogy staff,  I previously proposed them in an email to take the following actions. 1. Compensate me with the two exact hours given to the other student named [name redacted]. I said if the other student had the privilege to have two hours of teaching assistance from [name redacted], then I can claim the same privilege as well since we are paying the same amount of money.  2. Replace [name redacted] for his lack of professionalism for asking me to teach the other student when that was his job, not mine, and of course, for [name redacted] refusing to help me and for excluding me during the last two hours. 3. Provide a form to evaluate the office hours, right after the end of the two office hours. 4. Have a supervisor during the office hours to make sure every student is treated equally, every student is included, every student receives the same support and help they all deserve.  We scheduled a phone conversation, and three ladies were in the conversation, someone named [name redacted], another one named [name redacted], and the other named [name redacted]. When I explained the problem that I experienced with [name redacted], the teacher assistance, they all the three ladies defended [name redacted] actions and decision of not helping me, I got super upset and frustrated that I decided to drop the class. At this point they lost $10,000 for supporting an unprofessional, shameful, and immoral man named [name redacted] who excluded me indiscriminately in my last two office hours. I told all of these three ladies to evaluate the situation unbiased and in a fair way.  It seems that the word FAIR offended them, I said put yourself in my shoes, think about how you would have felt if you were a student and you experience that the TA is assisting the other student and he is excluding you. How would you react to it? They shamefully answered, that is how the our system works, technically they were trying to say that whatever the TA decides to do is completely acceptable regardless if the TA asks me to do his job for being lazy or, not, regardless if the TA excludes me in a indiscriminately way or not,  regardless the TA decision is, even if that decision goes against the most minimum fundamental principle of an educational intuitions.  This experience from this KU Bootcamp is very cheap, shameful, lacks professionalism, lacks morality and you easily will get disappointed, especially if you are a group of minority.  ​Once you pay they treat you like you are in and you have to follow all their unacceptable and shameful policies and rules that technically go against all minimum principles of a decent student. ​If you are in a position of undecided. ​I advise you if you take the risk of enrolling in this course with ​Trilogy and ​UK make sure they give you the ​all the necessary ​flexibility​ in all agreements​ so you can ​feel free to ​drop the course at any time ​either for experiencing the same shameful problem with the TA named [name redacted]. Make completely sure that if you drop the course at any given time during the course, make entirely sure that Trilogy and KU will easily give you all your money back as a refund and ask for a guarantee document to avoid misunderstanding; otherwise, do not even ​think about giving $10,000 easily, you will get easily disappointed, and ​mainly ​if you experience ​the same shameful TA assistant from this person named [name redacted] and the three ladies that I reached out to as I did​.​ Finally, I will recommend​ you this​, invest wisely and search for at least 5 educational institutions who have been well evaluated, recommended​, then decide for the best institution that can give you peace of mind and best of best honest support. Be clever, smart and wise. After all, it is your money that has cost you so much​ pain​, or is your money that you will pay back later, so when you decide, ​review every detail of ​all agreements,​​ and demand the best as you deserve it. Make sure they can give you the reimbursement if you decide to drop the class at any given time​, this is very vital for your finances and peace of mind, so you don't find yourself in a very difficult situation later​.  I hope this review can be ​so helpful and informative, and help you to make the best decision​. ​Again, for me University of Kansas Trilogy Data Analytics Bootcamp was the worst experience ever, mainly for this Teaching Assistant named [name redacted] and for the three incapable, inefficient and inexperienced ladies, three brains and none of them solved the problem. They preferred to easily refund $10,000. Very shameful of these three ladies and the TA named [name redacted]. I don't think their finance team and business owners are that happy with the accounting department of Trilogy and KU who easily lost $10,000 in refunding me all because their incompetent staff.  I frankly wish I could give zero stars. Take care, success and ​God bless​!    

Having a couple of years of experience in digital marketing, I see how being able to analyze and visualize data is becoming increasingly more important. Many aspects of digital marketing are also becoming more automated, which frees up time to actually perform more data analysis tasks.

 

That being said, I have friends in IT and others that went through a data science bootcamp who I talk to and they advised me to try it out and gain some additional skills which will make me stand out.

 

The bootcamp is challenging, but also very fun. It's fast paced and every class I learn something new. I also like the fact that we have a teacher and TA's who are in the industry, so we are getting first hand knowledge of what the current business world is looking for.

 

My favorite aspect of the bootcamp is not only the applicable knowledge we gain in six months, but also the support we receive from career services who helps me to become employer competitive, by giving much needed advice on resumes, updating LinkedIn profiles, mock up interviews, and more.

 

Advice to anyone thinking about taking the bootcamp is to get prepared that the bootcamp will be programming heavy for the first half and to do the bare minimum of googling the topics covered in the curriculum.

The Full-stack Coding Bootcamp that offer is very good and challenging in a good way. The instructor really makes you think and apply what you have learned.

Trilogy and KU have assembled the best and brightest to make a team that is worth every penny you'll pay for this course.  I graduate in March, but I have no doubt I'll land a challenging job I'll enjoy.  

I attended KU Coding Bootcamp from March 2020-August 2020. It is a six month program learning full stack web dev- everything from front to back end. I am amazed at how my skills have developed in the last six months. I can now do things that I didn't even know were possible to learn so quickly. It was supposed to be an in-person class but the Covid-19 pandemic changed that and we did a majority of the class on Zoom. It was an adjustment and I wasn't thrilled about it at first but the instructional staff was able to maintain the quality of the class and be just as attentive in helping us with homework, projects, understanding concepts, ect. It is an extremely intense class, requiring several hours a week doing assignments and practicing writing code. The things we learn are technically things you can teach yourself but I'm the type of person that thrives off of the interaction with other people while I'm learning. They also give you weekly tutoring sessions. I had a great tutor! The extra support totally justified the price tag for me. Would I recommend this class? Well, you have to be able to really push yourself, participate, keep a positive attitude and do everything the instructors tell you to do to reap the full benefits. If that sounds like you, you should definitely sign up. You will be so amazed at what you can learn. If you aren't willing to do those things this class isn't for you.
