The curriculum was fantastic. It covered everything from basic programming to advanced machine learning in a clear and understandable way. I felt like I got a great foundation in all the key areas of data science.
The instructors and the TA were knowledgeable and helpful, but there were a few times where things could have been explained a bit better, considering the tight time schedule that needed to be kept. Additionally, the rotating instructor approach of teaching was a bit confusing sometimes. However, all instructors (including the TA) were available and willing to provide advice that helped us advance in confidence in the world of data science.
Job assistance was top-notch. The bootcamp really helped me in re-shaping my resume, giving me crucial info for my future interviews and connecting us (alumni) with potential employers. I feel confident about my job prospects thanks to their support.
In summary, the Data Science Bootcamp of Big Blue Data Academy was a fantastic experience.
Despite me working and studying at the same time, I am thrilled I got to experience this programme and learn not only all the basics, but also advanced material on Data Science.
Even though it was really challenging for me, who had little to no experience in the field, everything was explained to me in such a way that I feel confident in my choice to change career paths and dedicate myself to studying Data.
I highly recommend it to anyone looking to break into the field of data science. Completing the bootcamp feels extremely rewarding and opens up numerous possibilities both work and study-wise.

Great experience
Demands your attention and its hard to keep up especially if you are new to the field. But in return awards you with a bag of tools for every need. We have done many daily projects simulating real world scenarios and for the last 3 weeks we collaborated with a real company that they arranged for us(we were teams of two).

Full spectrum great assistance!
Well organised and helpful Bootcamp! Came out as a ready to work junior Data Scientist/Analyst, nearly from scratch(just a 20h Python course beforehand). Great guidance, all arround support and job assistance (direct career focused scope) certainly made the investment worth it.
