The modules are well structured and each module is built to prepare you for a role as a data analyst. In addition to the coding part of the course, you also cover topics from analytical thinking, presentation skills to data visualisation, which are all skills that you get to use and build on throughout the course. As the course progresses you get more freedom to focus on the types of analyses you are most interested in. What I enjoy most about the course are the peer-based corrections and the corrections from experienced professionals. In these corrections, I connected with both fellow learners and experienced data scientists with a wide range of background knowledge and perspectives. I feel like this really helped me understand my projects from different points of view and helped me gain more insights that I would have otherwise missed. I highly recommend this course for anyone looking to expand their analytical skill set! -

Turing college was my first and only choice here in Lithuania. It surpasses most other bootcamps, no useless lectures, instead you learn from a well structured curriculum at your own pace and you gain the opportunity to interact with people who are working at industry leading companies, just ask them for advice if you hit roadblocks. The other learners also motivate and inspire as the whole atmosphere is quite serious, everyone knows that it's a big commitment to study here and the sense of community really helps. Also you don't have to repeat things you already know like in some other places where everything is rigid, here you just need to be self accountable and take what is most valuable for you, there is no limit to how fast you can finish the course. -

Here learners have the opportunity to learn the latest technologies and work on serious projects, which have definitely required some sweat from me. :D
Turing College introduces us to practices that real developers have daily, such as presenting our code to a senior, reviewing peers' code, peer programming, participating in stand-ups and etc.
I value flexibility, because I’m balancing the course with a full-time job, here I can learn at my own pace and during my preferred time.
I like my batch too - my peers are friendly, supportive and fun, making our weekly stand-ups enjoyable. Also only great comments about our stand-up leaders, Lukas and Gytis, who have been so supportive, never making us feel stupid about our technical questions and offering emotional support during our moments of doubt and frustration.
Oh and Turing College platform, community and support have been awesome, providing me with good help whenever needed.
To share a full-perspective, I'll mention a few aspects that don't fully suit me: 1) At times, I feel that the provided material is not enough for a complete beginner like me. 2) In some sprints, the deadlines are too tight for me.
But this course is new, I feel that Turing College team is open to feedback, so hopefully these aspects will improve with each student batch and learning experience will be better.

I'm really grateful that I found my way to Turing College. It's been an amazing part of my academic journey. There are so many schools out there but Turing just feels different. It's not just about learning it's like a journey towards becoming really good at what you love. Why? Well, to begin with, at Turing I got to work on lots of different projects with different people. I went to meetings, open sessions, and all sorts of events. It was a chance to learn and improve together.
What's really cool is that I got feedback from professionals who actually work in the data field. I never had that many experts giving me advice at my previous educational institutions! It was super helpful because I could learn from their experience and also share my own ideas.
Another great thing about Turing College is that you can learn at your own pace. You get to decide what you want to focus on and how fast you want to go. For me, I really needed to work on my public speaking and soft skills. Turing had resources just for that. They don't just teach you technical stuff - they help you to become a professional.
There are so many good things about Turing College that I can't even list them all. You just have to experience it for yourself. One more thing I'll mention is that they offer an endorsment process that helps to land a job.
To sum up, I want to thank Turing College! -

As someone who always struggled with traditional studies and school (still have a masters in pharmacy though), I really appreciated the fact that Turing College focuses so much on the practical aspects and teaches you what you will actually use in the future working in the respective position. The community they have built is unbelievable in the sense that they found a way to keep everyone engaged to everyone's benefit. My learning style involved me just trying to do everything by myself all the time but now I can easily get help from other learners who are more advanced and encountered the issues I have. This accelerates the rate at which I can learn ridiculously. This is especially true while learning something like data analytics since its very easy to go into rabit holes while looking for answers. Everyone I've interacted was really friendly and helpful which definitely makes it easier to ask when I have any questions and I can do the asking pretty much anytime and get a response quickly thorugh discord or if an open session is running I can join that and know for sure that my question wil be answered. Overall, I feel really happy to have started my journey into data at Turing College. -

When I decided to requalify from a very different field, I first chose “Turing College” because they provided self-paced learning that ensured flexibility essential for a working person with family responsibilities.In the course of studies, many other advantages unfolded. First, their well-balanced curriculum gives a broad overview of various analysis fields (e.g. from marketing to risk analysis, etc.), encompassing different methods and tools. The central part of the studies are broad and challenging hands-on projects that allow you to immediately put the newly acquired skills into action and test your knowledge in practice. Last but not least, it’s an amazing community of bright people that also has a robust system of support from consultations and discussions to project reviews by active sector professionals.The sweet cherry on top is their effective hiring support that actually helped me to get my first data analytics position.
I would definitely recommend “Turing College” for any curious and responsible person who wishes to reskill or upskill in the data field. -

My story and what I gained from TC data analyst course were everything I needed. I come from a totally different field and this was an option to gain practical confidence and overall experience to get ready for work. All the details of reviewing code, getting reviewed, and getting an impact from field specialists, made all the necessary base to step into the new job role. The other part of this is the community. After finishing and finding a job I still love to keep in touch with the TC data analytics community to stay updated on the current actuality of data.
In general, this course made me really job-ready. I transferred from biologist to data analyst and without this experience I don't think my goal would be possible or done in a timeframe of 6 months. -

I enrolled in the Data Engineering program at Turing College for a duration of 6 months, and I must say, it was an invaluable experience. I made a conscious effort to engage with all the course materials, including the optional content, as I recognized early on the great opportunity to acquire and refine skills in data modeling, databases, Python programming, APIs, and more. The program provided a solid foundation suitable for aspiring Data Engineers, as well as professionals with prior experience, such as myself.
The instructional methods employed at Turing College left a strong impression on me. They appear to be grounded in scientific principles, with a focus on timing, repetition of concepts, topic overlap, and hands-on application of newly acquired skills. This combination really seems to be effective.
In discussions with a colleague who inquired about the course, I expressed my satisfaction with the program. Having worked in the data field for several years, it's gratifying to feel the transition towards becoming a real developer. -

A great experience to learn and socialize
Read more Read less of Alessio Nespoli's review
The course is a well put together mixture of available material online, the best part is that the material is well organized and the course follows a structured approach. This also includes a steady, expected continuous growth that ultimately, which means you won't be asked for things you haven't yet studied. The caveat is that most of this content is already available for free.
Where the course and the school itself excels is the socialization part, with stand-ups, open sessions and peer reviews ingrained into the core of it. They are invaluable experiences of growth and socialization, with exchanges of ideas that can bring people closer to their goals. It doesn't happen often, but the reviewers may not be aligned say on what is important for a project and on this kind of small technicalities. The college has possibly made the best choice on this, and it's an ongoing change which hopefully will shape it for the better.
Studying at Turing College, importantly, gives you first-hand access to many dataset and practice working with them, which constitutes the basis for a nice presentation as a candidate. -

I joined Turing College with almost no coding experience at the very beginning of the college during the Covid. At Turing I gained solid foundations of software engineering, machine learning and deep learning. The combination of these skills allowed me to gain my first job in a consultancy company.
While Turing serves as an instrumental stepping stone towards a career in data science, I acknowledge that it alone does not make you a great data science specialist, so you will need to continue learning even after the graduation. However, it stands as a transformative platform for someone who wants to enter the data science field and get the basic skills.
After Turing I decided to pursue a master's degree in data science, so I can compare Turing with traditional universities. I can assure you that Turing College will provide you with skills that are on demand in the job market, unlike universities where you learn coding with old-fashioned statistical software and many courses are deeply theoretical with little practical applications in the job market.
Another advantage of studying in Turing is distance and self-paced learning. You can study at your preferred pace and the only "exams" you need to pass are projects at the end of each sprint where you'll receive feecback by Senior Team Leads (STLs) with profound experience in their fields.
Lastly, while studying in Turing, you will prepare a portfolio with data science projects, a practical embodiment of your knowledge. These will definitely allow you to stand out of other DS graduates and bring and advantage during job interviews. The career centre organizes meetings with reputable companies, providing invaluable insights into the practicalities of being a data science specialist. -

This course exceeded my expectations. It was challenging in a good way; while it pushed me, it wasn't so overwhelming that I wanted to give up. Whenever I felt stuck or lost, there were always mentors ready to help out. The balance was just right. The course encourages you to figure things out on your own, which I believe is essential for genuine learning. Still, they're there to support you when you hit a wall. The mentors were incredibly helpful, breaking things down when necessary. They understand the importance of facing challenges to truly grasp concepts while ensuring you're not left behind. Overall, a really solid experience. -

Best Coding School I went to!
Read more Read less of Dominykas Tvaska's review
I have studied in a lot of different online bootcamps and schools (datacamp, edx, coursera, etc). Turing College was the most useful for the following reasons:
1. Projects reviewed by industry professionals. The way that learning works in Turing is as follows: curriculum is spilt into sprint, each sprint is a topic (A/B testing, Cohorts, etc). In each sprint after completing the theory, you have to do a practical projects. Then these practical projects are graded by an industry professional during an 1-on-1 meeting. A lot of other bootcamp miss this human touch, a professional that can tell you why you approach is ok, but may run into maintenance issues in the future and such.
2. A flexible learning model. There are no classes so you can learn wherever and whenever you want. There are deadlines for each sprint of course and you have to meet with your batch in weekly standups. But even standups have 2-3 times to choose from each week, so it very very flexible.
3. Community. Community is not a nice to have, but an essential part of the learning experience. You have to participate in weekly standups, you have to do project reviews for other learners or you won’t be able to progress with your own material, you have to help other people in discord (this one is not mandatory, but if you won’t help other, other won’t help you). You make friends and a lot of good connections this way.
4. Help getting employed. One of the main selling points of Turing is that ~97% or something like that people get employed no longer than 6 months after graduation, so they are very interested to keeps this number up. They help to setup you linkedin and github, search for roles and get ready for interviews. They are partners with a lot of different companies that help create the curriculum, so Turing will make sure that you get employed. I got hired while still studying.
I hope this review helps you make a decision! -

There are a few topics I would like to share. The whole idea of studying online, at your own pace is fantastic. You can go to the topic as deep as you want since they are providing additional material and you always can ask team leads during weekly standups for additional information. You do not stay alone, there is always somebody eager to help you. I like the fact that students would check the works of other students who are on a lower stage of learning - because this is how I would learn and get different possible ways of finishing the work you are asked for. Amazing community to study with, Turing College gives possibility to everyone to grow and learn new things. Does not matter how old are you, or what is your background - they will help you reach your goal. This is not another one-month-course school, this is a place where you will learn how and why. Just go for it and you will not regret it ;) -

Transforming from Excel to Python: My Journey at Turing College
Read more Read less of Justė Gavienė's review
As the pandemic unfolded, I pursued a career change for stability and the prospect of remote work. Despite my passion for numbers and experience in revenue management, the phrase "print("Hello, World")" didn't resonate; my calculations were confined to Excel. Surprisingly, within approximately 10 months, I progressed from coding novice to laughing at programmers' jokes and excelling at a data analysis task using Jupyter Notebook in Python, assigned by my employer.
The journey had its challenges. I grappled with loops, found lengthy statistics courses daunting, and stumbled through my initial machine learning project, experiencing moments of frustration and even shedding a few tears. However, I honed the skill of rapid learning, a practice I continue to apply daily. I embraced self-research, a skill extending beyond technical learning, and sharpened my analytical prowess through feedback loops.
Notably, the guidance and expertise of the Senior Team Leads (STLs) at Turing College were instrumental in my learning journey. Their mentorship and domain knowledge were invaluable, guiding my transition from an Excel practitioner to a proficient Python user.
My time at Turing College wasn't solely about coding; it was a transformative experience that equipped me with essential skills and steered me toward an entirely new career path. -
