    Marketing Coordinator

    As a Marketing Coordinator, I was working on a project that included SEO, a new website, google analytics, and so on, but I was lost. When working on this project I felt that I was tackling unchartered territory and I was uncomfortable doing this project because I knew half of what I was working on was completely out of my knowledge box. LinkedIn had an ad that I clicked on and I realized that I could learn all of the information I had no idea about and got to work.

    UT Austin Coding Boot Camp (Part Time - 6 Months)

    I cannot speak highly enough about my time in this course and how beneficial it has been to me. Even in the midst of the COVID pandemic, the education I received was top notch (my instructor and TA were Paul Viola and Tay Mai, respectively; both were excellent). I went into this course having very little technical background - I have worked as a manual QA tester for 3 years where I have been exposed to some C# and a good bit of the fundamental querying with SQL using SSMS, but I had virt...

    Worth Every Penny!!!

     I was at a point in my career path where I was looking for a change.  I had experience with data analysis in the past and I really enjoyed sharing the stories of what the data told in a way that anyone could undertstand.  I wanted to do that again, but I felt that my toolset was inadequate.  I chose the the Data Analysis and Visualization boot camp with UT Austin because I was impressed with the comprehensive cirriculum.

    I enrolled in this bootcamp because I own a web based business but knew nothing about coding.  As my business grew I knew that I needed to learn how to code.  I began the bootcamp with no prior coding experience.  After trying to teach myself, I realized that the bootcamp was the way to go.

    The resources to teach yourself are out there on the internet but it's hard to know where to begin.  The bootcamp curriculum is laid out in a way that gradually teaches you the building blocks o...
