I completed the data science bootcamp at WBS Coding school (Berlin), and it was truly a transformative experience. As someone with a background in supply chain consulting, I was looking to transition into the field of data science, and this bootcamp provided the perfect platform for me to do so.
One of the standout aspects of the bootcamp was its comprehensive curriculum. The instructors covered a wide range of topics, from data wrangling and visualization to machine learning and deep learning. Each topic was taught in-depth, with hands-on exercises and real-world examples that helped solidify my understanding.
Moreover, the bootcamp fostered a collaborative learning environment. I had the opportunity to work on group projects with fellow participants, which not only enhanced my technical skills but also taught me valuable teamwork and communication skills.
The instructors at WBS Coding School were incredibly knowledgeable and supportive. They were always available to answer questions and provide guidance, ensuring that no student was left behind. Additionally, the career services provided by the bootcamp were invaluable. From resume workshops to providing feedback on LinkedIn profiles, they equipped me with the necessary tools to succeed in the job market.
Overall, I can confidently say that WBS data science bootcamp exceeded my expectations. I walked away from the bootcamp with a solid foundation in data science, a portfolio of projects to showcase to potential employers, and a network of peers and mentors to lean on. If you're considering a career in data science, I highly recommend WBS Coding school.

I loved it
I recently completed the Digital Product Design Bootcamp with WBS and loved it.
Even tho I worked as a UX/UI Designer before I did learn so much and could deepen my skills and knowledge a lot. I gained more confidence in my decision-making and developed two cool products I am proud of :)
My tutor was Maria and I must say she is a gem—such a loving and supportive person, with endless knowledge. She made the time so enjoyable!

I participated in the 4-month-long Data Science Bootcamp. Overall, it was a great learning experience that solidified my Python knowledge, taught me SQL basics and a variety of data new data analysis techniques.
-Summary-
+ great for newbies and people with some prior experience alike
+ good teachers, live lectures, very good online learning material
+ learn meaningful and up-to-date data science skills
+ Campus Phase rocks
+ very helpful WBS staff
- many teachers don't have tech industry background
- no tight networking opportunities within the tech industry
-Previous Knowledge-
I have a PhD in marine science and had quite a bit of previous experience in statistical programming with R as well as a little bit of Python experience. Therefore, the first couple of weeks were rather slow for me. However, after roughly 4-5 weeks, the pace started picking up and I felt thoroughly challenged.
-Curriculum-
The curriculum is project-based and hands-on, which is the right way of learning for me. You start a new project every 1-3 weeks. There are live lectures and coding lessons.
We covered basic data analysis and visualization with Python and SQL, Cloud computing and data pipelines, web scraping and API calls, A/B Testing, Unsupervised and Supervised Machine Learning (Decision Trees, Support Vector Machines, etc.) and Recommender Systems. The only thing that was missing in the curriculum, in my opinion, was Deep Learning. The last 2.5 weeks are spent on a final project, either alone or in groups of 2-3 people.
-Daily Learning-
On a regular day, you would have some read-through material on the Online Learning Platform, followed by one or two lecture/coding sessions. The rest of the day is used for project work. By the end of the project, you usually present your work to the class.
Students organize themselves during their projects. They can work together in Discord channels, or separately. They can use Github for collaborating or whichever other tool to facilitate exchange.
How much you enjoy the learning journey depends a lot on your class mates and the group dynamic.
-Campus Phase-
Students can come to the WBS Campus to work on their final project (~1h South-East of Berlin Mitte). This has been the most fun part for me - I would recommend anyone to go if you have the chance. The bill is ~600,-€ for 11 nights of accommodation and 3 veggie meals per day. You can either pay it yourself or have it covered by the job center.
-WBS Support-
I've experienced the WBS CODING SCHOOL employees to be very helpful when it comes to organizing stuff. The job center had first declined my application for the campus phase. Together with the WBS staff, however, we were able to convince them to fund me.
-Teachers' Expertise-
The instructors I've had lessons with during the bootcamp were all knowledgable in the course material. They were also good at teaching and approachable, with some very few exceptions.
However, they are certainly not all experts from the data science industry. The WBS website mislead me on this one, as many (perhaps most) instructors do in fact not have industry experience. That doesn't make them bad teachers, but it still put me off, as I'd expected industry expertise.
-Career Opportunities-
There is a Career Service that offers online learning material, three mandatory daily workshops throughout the bootcamp, a CV, CL and LinkedIn screening and a one-time career advice session. The workshops helped me a lot to brush up my profile.
The only thing I'm missing is - again - a tighter connection to the industry. There are guest talks by people working in tech, but that's pretty much it. I would appreciate it if the final projects were presented not only to WBS peers, but also company representatives. This would encourage networking and job finding for graduates.
Many thanks to the WBS CODING SCHOOL.

Nice Experience with Room for Improvement
I recently completed a coding bootcamp, and overall, my experience has been positive and transformative. Going from basic HTML and minimal CSS knowledge to confidently creating projects with a MERN tech stack is an achievement I'm proud of.

I recently completed a coding bootcamp, and overall, my experience has been positive and transformative. Going from basic HTML and minimal CSS knowledge to confidently creating projects with a MERN tech stack is an achievement I'm proud of. However, there are a few aspects of the bootcamp that I believe could be improved.
One significant factor influencing the overall experience is the instructor. The bootcamp's success seems to hinge heavily on who your instructor is and how they structure their classes. Unfortunately, there isn't a consistent quality management system in place to ensure uniform teaching methods for all students. This lack of standardization occasionally led to variations in the learning experience.
One notable aspect is the emphasis on independent learning. While empowering students to research solutions and navigate documentation is crucial, I sometimes felt we spent too much time working alone. A more balanced approach, incorporating additional group activities or instructor-led sessions, would have enhanced the collaborative aspect of the learning process. Moreover, the promises made by the bootcamp regarding job market prospects felt somewhat exaggerated in real-life scenarios. While I appreciate the effort put into organizing three career days focused on CVs and job applications, the actual job placement outcomes might be very different then promised. But this remains to be seen.
Despite these concerns, I want to highlight the positive impact the bootcamp had on my skill set and project portfolio. The MERN stack projects I've created showcase my newfound abilities and give me confidence in my coding capabilities. The staff and the instructors all seem to be passionate about teaching and want you to succeed, which I found very motivating.

However, the wealth of knowledge acquired was substantial, and the fast-paced nature ensured that I was always engaged and learning.
One standout aspect of the bootcamp was the constant support available. Whether it was reaching out to the staff or instructors, there was always someone ready to assist. The sense of community fostered a collaborative learning environment, making the challenging journey more manageable.
The Campus Phase in Berlin was a unique and unforgettable experience. Being immersed in a dedicated learning environment with peers and instructors created a strong sense of camaraderie. The hands-on approach during this phase provided practical insights that complemented the theoretical aspects of the course.
