    Software Engineer

    I've been learning software development on my own for some time, however, after about 4 months on the Practicum bootcamp I've realised that doing a few courses and practice projects is no substitute for a well thought out, rigorous course of study with progressively more challenging projects and detailed feedback - which is exactly what Practicum provides.

    The course is longer than other bootcamps I've seen (10 months) so I expected a pretty leisurely pace, but this is not the cas...

    Data Scientist

    This is a great program of those unfamiliar with the field. If you are new to the field, like myself, you might find yourself spending more time on each 2 week sprint that what they say, but it is time well spent. The curriculum is great. There is solid organization, incremental learning, and you will produce tangible projects that display your learning. The slack forum allows conversations between students and the tutors. Tutors will respond within 24 hours as a rule. Sometimes you will...

    Software Engineer

    I was blessed to attend Practicum by Yandex with sponsorship from Women Who Code and I'm so glad I joined. I was looking for a program that was affordable, beginner-friendly and allowed me to keep my full-time job and that would be hands-on. There is a trial period where you get to try out the program and create a project to see if it's for you before making a commitment. I love how Practicum's program is project-based and how just a couple of months in I had 2 beautiful projects to add ...

    A close-knit coding community of growth

    Practicum took me from knowing the basics of html and CSS to an MERN stack developer in 10 months.
    Along the way I had a ton of fun, participated in group projects and hackathons, went to talks, worked in sprints, and learned a TON.
    their tutors treat you like family.
    their community managers and tech support treat you like family.
    the classmates that are actually active in chat also treat you like family.

    don't be afraid to expand your horizons, if you have the time ...

    From beginner to expert in six month, no joke

    I went to the program with no prior background, and I was worried about the fact that the whole course is at Python and I can't print 'hello world', I discovered a convenient and clear platform with explanations examples and practices, 24/7 technical support.
    The instructors are excellent attentive patient and professional and available .
    sometimes even at 4 AM .
    a one-on-one meeting for further questions is available.
    The course is intensive professionally and includes a lot...

    Data Scientist Student

    My experience in Practicum by Yandex's Data Scientist curriculum has been nothing short of an amazing learning experience. I am a busy graduate student and this coding boot camp gives me the ability to learn while being a full-time student in my graduate program. It is a huge commitment, but it has been worth the late nights and seeing the milestones as I go along. Practicum is also great at helping develop your skills beyond learning how to code in Python and Jupyter Notebooks. Througho...

    Data Science Course

    I just finished the Data Science course of Practicum by Yandex. There is only the final project at the moment. Finally, I feel lucky to have learned a lot of theory and had the opportunity to practice. Concepts with well-chosen examples, tasks after lessons, projects, webinars, Slack channels for support, code readers, tutors, instructors and community managers... When you add also yourself, there seems to be nothing missing. Regular study is the most important thing that I learned, then...

    "Amazing learning experience with Practicum in web development program"

    I have graduated from Practicum by Yandex in web development program. I had basic front-end skills. One day a friend of mine suggested to me Practicum for their advanced web development course. After seeing what skills I can obtain from the course I immediately signed up. I wanted to become an expert in the front-end/web development field, that's why I decided to start learning with Practicum. I was really amazed by the learning process they used for students. All the lessons are made of...

    Highly recommend. Best place to learn

    Wondering why it's the best? And I would say there is no better place to learn not just to code but also to understand the concepts. Coming from a finance and accounting background, I needed something that would accord me both theoretical and practical lessons. I only have a few sprints to finish and can confidently say, I have no regrets since starting. My interest in data science all started at a time when I started my MBA. I decided on a topic that required skills that I di...

    Great Intro Web Development Course

    I bought the intro web development course for $50 and it was absolutely worth the money. It solidified my decision to buy the full course. The staff is super helpful and communicative and the lessons are engaging. I went into it knowing some HTML and CSS basics, but not knowing any JavaScript. My only issue was that the JavaScript portion went a bit fast for me, so it might be a good idea to do a little bit of learning on your own first before buying the full course. However, buying the ...

    Outstanding program!

    10 months ago, I started a data science educational program at Practicum by Yandex. By that time, I’ve done several MOOC courses on different platforms, read a bunch of blogs and articles on how to switch to the data science field or become a data scientist.  I was lost. There is a huge amount of information and all advices are good. But how do I exactly start? Where do I begin? I needed a direction. I needed a mentor, a tutor, a community. And all this I found in t...

    Affordable, Unique and Enjoyable

    I was looking for an online bootcamp to further improve my skillset as a visual communicator (a.k.a. a graphic designer but more) and stumbled upon Practicum. Previously, I was looking at another potential online program which charged a crazy amount of money to learn what I'm planning to learn through Practicum--web development. I ultimately went with Practicum because it offers the opportunity to try it out for two weeks (for less than $100) to see if it was the right fit and the price ...

Having a learning disability doesn t preclude you from learning how to code or launching your tech career. And considering that 1 in 5 people have learning or attention issues, it s prudent for bootcamps to support all types of learners. Plus, the more neurodiverse folks work in tech, the more likely the principles of web and design accessibility will spread across tech and that benefits everyone. In this guide, we break down tech tools that make it easier to learn with disabilities, ...

Web accessibility describes the work to remove digital barriers that prevent users with disabilities from operating and connecting with websites and online platforms. When designing and building with web accessibility, auditory, cognitive, neurological, physical, visual, and speech abilities must be considered. In the same way that a building must comply with ADA standards, websites should be as thoughtful about their users by offering images with text equivalents, ...
