    My expectations were exceeded!

    My time at SPICED Academy was wonderful, not only because of the tools acquired for data analysis, which have made me more competitive professionally, but also because of the professional growth!
    The incredible support of the teachers, their commitment to teach and accompany me in every part of the process made me acquire tools that I never imagined I would have.
    I highly recommend this course and this academy. I can confirm that even if you do not have knowledge in programming or ...

    Such a positive environment !!

    I'm super happy I attended the boot camp at Spiced!
    All of the staff is super helpful and has such a positive energy. 

    I started with basic knowledge of HTML and CSS and learned a lot about web development and feel definitely job-ready.

    Things which can be improved:
    Since it is a very personal experience and it very much depends on everyone's self, I still think that the BootCamp can be a bit more intense. Sometimes there was a bit too much free time between the class...

    Brilliant Material and Supportive Atmosphere

    I participated in a Data Science bootcamp from the Spiced Academy. Due to the very well prepared teaching material, exciting hands-on exercises, detailed and clear technical instructions, good teaching sessions, and a positive and supportive atmosphere, it was a very good experience, I wouldn't like to miss. The example exercises are interesting and provide the needed, extensive hands-on training. The topics covered provide the foundations for beginning your own projects. Furthermore, I ...

    All-round Data Science Bootcamp

    This bootcamp was an excellent upgrade to my professional skills. By graduating online I learnt the potential of working efficiently on a remote environment. The curriculum was inspiring from the first day and I got a balance between being able to work at my own path on the topics of my preference while having continuous assistance from the Spiced staff as well as from the rest of the students. The content taught is relevant to my actual professional tasks and it´s structured in a way th...

    intense and rewarding

    I wanted to change my career to the data world, and the bootcamp provided me with all the tools I needed to dive into data science. Instructors are great, and the learning environment is also very welcoming. The bootcamp is really intense, but teachers make the learning fun and accessible. It was a great experience for me!

    Dedicated teachers and a thorough curriculum

    I did the fully remote Data Science bootcamp. The small class size of approx. 15 students as well as the full-time teaching staff made it a very focused and productive experience. Teachers were able to dedicate a lot of time to answering questions in one-on-one breakout rooms and I appreciated the remote learning structure. 

    We would do a lesson all together and then work independently on our weekly project in smaller batches in breakout rooms that changed daily, allowing us to co...

    Data Analytics Bootcamp

    I participated in this Bootcamp during the summer '22 and I cannot be happier with the experience. Nine intense weeks fully immersed in the learning process have equipped me with the tools I need to start my career as Data Analyst: Python, SQL and Tableau, plus career coaching that increases the chances to find a job after the Bootcamp. 

    My recommendation for anyone interested in this Bootcamp is to have some basic knowledge of Python. Although the course takes you from the very b...

    Data Analytics

    The Data Analytics course at Spiced Academy in Berlin teaches data analysis using Python, SQL and Tableau. Additionally creating and working with databases as PostgresSQL and interactive visualization. The curriculum is logically designed and well thought out. The teachers guide the students through the course material professionally and with passion and patience. I personally could learn a lot and enjoyed the challenges. I feel well prepared for a carrier in Data Analysis.

    The good and the bad

    I had a mostly disappointing experience at SPICED academy (spring 2022). 
    What was disappointing:  
    1. The quality of teaching and the level of experience of the teachers. Many classes were taught by bootcamp graduates who had themselves graduated the bootcamp and then started immediately teaching (—> no knowledge of industry or even the mathematical or statistical background of different methods). In these cases, you’d be better off watching youtube videos than going to classes...
