I took the Web Development Diploma course in Spring of 2020. It was such a great course. We had fantastic educators, lots of student support, and overall I found it to be a great experience. Being full stack we covered a lot of material in a very short amount of time. It was challenging to say the least, but the educators were always available to work with you one on one. It's amazing how much you progress over the twelve weeks. The tech stack: html, CSS/SCSS and JavaScript for the fundamentals. Then, React.js, a front end javascript library for making web applications (this is really useful for getting a job later on), and Node.js with Express.js as our server-side programming curriculum. We also covered some intro to MySql and databases, authentication and deployment.(Among other things, but these were the main focus points, imo). The program is definitely full stack, but I would say leans more towards front end development being that React is a front-end javascript library, and three of the projects (including the capstone) are built using React. However, the server side scripting is also written in javascript, so really as soon as javascript is introduced you are already learning the foundation for creating Node/Express servers, and in two of the main projects you will be implementing a rest API. Overall I was really happy with the tech stack they taught. It’s great being able to use JavaScript for both server and client side. React, although somewhat difficult to learn at first, is totally worth it and is very in demand for seeking out jobs. Also learning how to use SCSS proficiently is massively advantageous. You won’t need to use templates for your your UI - in fact you could be making the templates after this program. I would give BrainStation a 9/10 for course content (just because there’s always room for improvement :) Beyond the core curriculum, we had the opportunity for Mock interviews and a number of career services workshops throughout the cohort. These were great. The whole staff at BrainStation gets 10/10 from me. I found the mock interview to be so helpful, my interviewer was really insightful and I made a new linked in connection and even got some extra help with tailoring my resume. Finally, the Educators. I can’t say enough good things about our teacher, Jon. He’s a senior developer with tons of experience/wisdom, and luckily for his students, a great deal of patience. He genuinely cares about each of his students success. Jon was always readily available to work with you one-on-one or to answer questions throughout the lectures, etc. He’s a humble and approachable guy and really made the whole experience something special. Bootcamp is tough so having a knowledgable supportive team backing you up is essential. These people are your friends/family for the twelve-week duration so it’s a lot easier if you have nice caring people who want to see you succeed. In addition to Jon being awesome we had a team of TA’s who were also exceptionally knowledgable and always ready to help. The support is there, you just have to reach out. I’ll wrap this up by saying that my experience at BrainStation was definitely worth the time and money - I’m still blown away by how much I learned. The only advice I would give anyone considering bootcamp is to make sure you’re prepared and ask a ton of questions. “Bootcamp” is an appropriate name - just prepare as much as you can because the more energy you put in to the program, the more you will get out of it.

BrainStation Data Science FT Bootcamp 2020
Overall a decent experience. Main advantages are good quality instructors and lots of different methods of teaching were used to keep things interesting. Cons come from the fact that data science is very hard to teach in 3 months; not everyone is at the same proficiency in math so sometimes it's a little slow, sometimes it's a little fast.

As someone who already had a few years of marketing experience (no targeted digital marketing experience), this course was not very useful for me. To capture something as broad as Digital Marketing in 10 weeks doesn't do it justice. Example; one course (3 hours) was dedicated to social media - with such definitions as what Facebook vs. Instagram vs. Twitter are... Not a good use of my time. I want to be fair and say this could be a reasonable introduction to someone who is (a) not famili...
As someone who already had a few years of marketing experience (no targeted digital marketing experience), this course was not very useful for me. To capture something as broad as Digital Marketing in 10 weeks doesn't do it justice. Example; one course (3 hours) was dedicated to social media - with such definitions as what Facebook vs. Instagram vs. Twitter are... Not a good use of my time. I want to be fair and say this could be a reasonable introduction to someone who is (a) not familiar with digital technologies; and (2) not familiar with marketing, looking for a career switch and a cushy introduction. If you have any experience, I wouldn't recommend this. I will say the instructors were pretty decorated. Our main instructor was well-meaning and smart, but I don't feel like he was a good "teacher". Our substitute instructors were more enthusiastic and better at explaining, educating. Our main prof did reach out afterwards with a potential opportunity of interest to me (although I was already happy with my current position) so I feel like they are well-meaning about job assistance.

Remote Full Stack Web Development Program Review
TLDR: Excellent course, would recommend to most!
Long story: I completed the 12 week bootcamp in July 2020. Partially due to Covid, I decided that it was the perfect opportunity to start a new career path and follow a passion for tech to become a web developer. As I had expected, it was a very intense course and went through an entire gamut of languages and skills. I cannot recommend the course to everyone, as there will be some people who would not be able to handle the workload. ...

As I had expected, it was a very intense course and went through an entire gamut of languages and skills. I cannot recommend the course to everyone, as there will be some people who would not be able to handle the workload. However, if you go in with the mindset that you are condensing an entire year of learning into 3 months, and you're willing to put in the time and effort it will take to learn all the material and complete all the projects, then this course is for you.

Great Course - Perfect Balance of Learning and Practice
The course was set to provide the perfect balance of content learning and practice. I was able to practice what I learnt in class with assignments/homework with more advanced questions available for those who want to push themselves. My instructor was patient and welcoming as he ensured that each student participated in class discussions and understanding concepts. All questions were answered in class and our instructor made himself available for extra help outside of class hours. Our pr...
The course was set to provide the perfect balance of content learning and practice. I was able to practice what I learnt in class with assignments/homework with more advanced questions available for those who want to push themselves. My instructor was patient and welcoming as he ensured that each student participated in class discussions and understanding concepts. All questions were answered in class and our instructor made himself available for extra help outside of class hours. Our practice with the applications and software was enough to allow us to get started and perform the many tasks you would get as a Data Analyst. As a class, we tried out each application with plenty of practice examples.

I would recommend the course and BrainStation overall. I learnt a lot and feel ready to take on more challenges.

User Experience Design
I took the User Experience Design course at the BrainStation Toronto location. If I had to summarize my experience in a few words, I would say: modern, inspiring, relevant. I've taken numerous courses from many different schools, but none were as engaging as this one was. It starts with the Learning Experience team who are always available to help you be prepared for each class, whether its addressing technical issues or sharing suggested resources that get you in the right mindset for c...
I took the User Experience Design course at the BrainStation Toronto location. If I had to summarize my experience in a few words, I would say: modern, inspiring, relevant. I've taken numerous courses from many different schools, but none were as engaging as this one was. It starts with the Learning Experience team who are always available to help you be prepared for each class, whether its addressing technical issues or sharing suggested resources that get you in the right mindset for class participation. In class, it became obvious very quickly that the instructors are highly passionate about their craft and that they are genuinely interested in helping students learn not only new skills, but more importantly, how to think critically and how to develop their careers. I highly recommend BrainStation for anyone looking for insight into a particular career path or for anyone looking for what specific knowledge is critical for career success.
