Love it so much ! Very valuable indeed!
This bootcamp was a really good one! Tough indeed, but I learned so much. And special thanks to the very valuable coaches who guide us thru a bunch of science stuff. The format of morning lectures and group work on the stuff after lunch is really helpful to get into the topics and collaborate on them, so you daily learned twice. Very useful experience to study remote. The capstone project is really good for experience too, I learned so much more than in other courses earlier.

I recently completed the 4-week English IT Project Management Bootcamp at neuefische and I couldn't be more impressed. The bootcamp exceeded my expectations, especially in terms of its practical focus.
What I particularly enjoyed:-
The perfect blend of theory and practice:
The content was delivered in a clear and concise manner, and was reinforced with numerous practical examples. -
The open and collaborative learning environment:
The flat hierarchy between coaches and participants, along with the opportunities to interact with fellow learners, greatly enriched the learning experience. -
The personalized support:
Coaches Katharina, Chao and Jay were incredibly helpful and always available to answer questions. -
The merger of neuefische and Spiced Academy
has resulted in an even wider range of course offerings. Having successfully completed a bootcamp at Spiced a few years ago, I can wholeheartedly recommend both companies. They both offer high-quality training, excellent support, and professional coaches with extensive industry experience. -
The practical application, especially the capstone project, was particularly challenging but also showed me how much I had already learned. The open and collaborative learning environment made me feel right at home, and I enjoyed interacting with both my fellow participants and the coaches.

Erstklassiges Konzept
Es war mein erstes Camp bei den Fischen, aber insgesamt meine 5 Schulungserfahrung in ähnlicher Durchführung.
Die neuen fische waren mit Abstand die Organisation, die am besten aufgestellt, organisiert und thematisch versiert sind.
Der anhaltende Fokus auf Teamwork, das Konzept des "Crosscoachings" mit einen Hauptchoach und weiteren Coaches die themenspezifisch Gastcoachings gehalten haben, haben den gesamten Kurs sehr rund gemacht.

Es gab keine Frage, zu keiner Zeit die irgendwie unbeantwortet geblieben ist.
Auch wenn es den Namen Bootcamp mit jeglicher Berechtigung trägt, weil dort tatsächlich sehr viel Wissen, ultra kompakt vermittelt wird, war es das Beste was mir je passieren konnte! - Konrad ScherbGraduate • Web Development Online • HamburgVerified by GitHubFeb 25, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Eine der besten Entscheidungen…
…die ich letztes Jahr gemacht habe. Super kompetente Coaches die mit Leidenschaft bei der Sache sind. Man bekommt ein stark gefragtes Tech-Stack in einem anspruchsvollen und motivierten Umfeld beigebracht, mit dem man bestens für die Anforderungen des Arbeitsmarkts gewappnet ist. Jeder der Lust hat, 150% zu geben, sollte sich diesen Kurs näher anschauen! - DavidVerified by GitHubAug 20, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

Sehr negative Erfahrung im Bootcamp gemacht.
Meiner Meinung nach liegt bei Neue Fische der Fokus auf guten Umsatz. Es gab von Anfang an keinerlei Transparenz. Ein neuer Coach wurde eingesetzt, welcher noch nie zuvor unterrichtet hatte. Es gab massive soziale Spannungen im Kurs, welche bei Neue Fische lieber unter den Tisch gekehrt werden, obwohl sich mehrere Kursteilnehmer dazu geäußert haben.

Ich kann Jedem nur empfehlen, sich eine Alternative zu suchen oder sich vor dem Kurs massivst vorzubereiten. - ChristianGraduate • Web Development Online • HamburgVerified by GitHubJul 09, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
exhausting but worth it!
The web development course was enormously exhausting, but the atmosphere, the cohesion and the very human and warm nature of the coaches were a great support. The amount of content taught should absolutely not be underestimated and you should definitely expect (especially if you have little to no prior experience) that you will reach your limit. Would still recommend it to anyone. What I learned here in 3 months, I could never have taught myself in 2-3 years. - Christian SteckGraduate • CologneVerified by GitHubJul 08, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
A lot of hard work, but worth it!
I applied to the data science bootcamp, because I have been working in quantitative research and wanted to get out of academia and into a more technical role within the private sector. The course was what I expected it to be. You learn A LOT in a short amount of time. To achieve this, you have to work a lot, too.

The course was what I expected it to be. You learn A LOT in a short amount of time. To achieve this, you have to work a lot, too.
The coaches are competent, nice and helpful. The lectures are a great mix of the intuition of the algorithms and the math behind it. At the same time you learn everything practically by doing coding exercises.
The course will be easier to master if you have a strong background in statistics, but even participants without it have accomplished a great deal.
In regards to finding a job afterwards, you obviously can't expect wonders after a 3 months course, but it definitely helped me a lot to get a desirable role. So in the end I am very happy to have visited the bootcamp! - Shiraz KhanSoftware Engineer • Graduate • Web Development Online • HamburgVerified by GitHubJan 20, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Web Development
I went to neuefische in fall 2019 and had a wonderful time there. The head coach Jerry was very dedicated to the students and the job seeking assistance was a tremendous help. I had interviews with three partner companies of neuefische and chose one of them where I'm working for over a year now. - chandrakantha HAStudent • Data Science Online • HamburgVerified by GitHubJan 12, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Data science
The year 2020 will be remembered for many reason, I would remember it for the best decision that I took to attend data scientist bootcamp at Neuefische GmbH, it was very challenging and teaching staff were very friendly and helpful.

Attending the Neue Fische WebDev Bootcamp in cologne was one of the best decisions I made this year!
I got into coding about a year ago when I started to think about a career change. One year later and thanks to my wonderful coaches Leon and Phillip I'm on the verge of being a Bootcamp graduate.

I got into coding about a year ago when I started to think about a career change. One year later and thanks to my wonderful coaches Leon and Phillip I'm on the verge of being a Bootcamp graduate.
I won't be lying: Attending the Bootcamp is going to be hard. The first weeks you dream about code and all the coding problems ou are not able to wok out. But after a few more weeks you will be able to solve problems you thought were unsolvable. I wasn't sure what to think about attending a remote Bootcamp at first. After the first few weeks, I was able to see massive benefits. We were able to solve problems by sharing screens and I believe your concentration was more focused on your doings. Even social interactions between students where great. Every Friday we had an "after-work" event where we played a lot of scribble, talked and had a lot of fun. We even had a "digitaler 11.11" where some of us dressed up and we had a little digital party. After 8 weeks of intensive learning in our digital classes, we started preparing our "Digitales Gesellenstück" (the Capstone project). Those 4 following weeks gave me time to apply all concepts we learned earlier. In this time there was always the option to get help from the coaches and the whole community. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Neue Fische to anyone who wants to get into coding. - Christine M.Graduate • CologneVerified by GitHubOct 10, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Coding Bootcamp with a feel- good atmosphere
Nice rooms at Spaces Cologne, nice and helpful people. Course concept is based on teamwork. The coaches are nice, helpful and really interested in their students. I had a good time and I found a Job, although I came from a completely different business (social work and education). My only critical point is the Job Assistance. The employee responsible was more focused on the Hamburg students. I give 4 stars because the coaches filled the gap.

They gave really helpful information for technical job interviews and gave the possibility to ask questions after the bootcamp.

I participated the data science boot camp in a group of 16 participants. After my studies 3 years earlier I did not expect it to be that hard. After the first week we knew why it is called a boot camp. The instructors did a great job in shaping the environment of the group so that it was a collaborative experience. The predominant driver of this boot camp is peer pressure - but not in a competitive fashion. The instructors gave us the feeling that we are in this together and that together we are stronger. Every attendee had some tasks from time to time and none would want to let the group down.
Learning Scope
The scope is quite large. The order of the course has a well designed structure. The course is focused on programming labs.
We had 2 one week projects and a 4 week capstone project in the end. These projects helped a lot in training through repetition without feeling like repetition.
I have the small critique that deep learning could be more fleshed out and I would have liked to learn something about reinforcement learning.
Job Assistance
We had various job sessions with advice for an entry into the field of data science or IT in general. Neue fische also works with partners that seek for applicants. From time to time those partners introduce themselves to the cohort. In general neue fische encourages networking.
We graduated amidst the corona crisis and I personally have some trouble finding a job at the moment, but I am positive since the field in general is growing.
