Great introduction to data analytics
This course was a really good first step into data analytics, covering advanced Excel, beginner SQL, and Tableau. The instructor and TA were great at conveying concepts and were patient in answering questions. Homework assignments were good practice for getting more comfortable with the material, and we always went over the answers in the following class. This one course isn't enough to prepare you for a data analytics career, but it is a really solid first step. Would recommend!

Great in-person UX Bootcamp!
I recently just graduated from the in-person UX bootcamp and overall it was a great experience. If you do the in-person bootcamp be forewarned, it is ALOT of work. This is due to the projects so a lot of work outside of the bootcamp and weekends are extremely busy putting together things for deadlines. Don't expect too much free time. I would say week 4/5-10 are the busiest. The best things about the experience: instructors have worked in the industry so there is a lot to learn from them...
I recently just graduated from the in-person UX bootcamp and overall it was a great experience. If you do the in-person bootcamp be forewarned, it is ALOT of work. This is due to the projects so a lot of work outside of the bootcamp and weekends are extremely busy putting together things for deadlines. Don't expect too much free time. I would say week 4/5-10 are the busiest. The best things about the experience: instructors have worked in the industry so there is a lot to learn from them. In-person allows you to have a great starting network of UX designers. The content very comprehensive, I felt like we touched on everything possible about UX and had plenty of projects to apply what we are learning. Brainstation seems like a very well oiled machine and the other nice thing is the post-bootcamp career help is very comprehensive. Throughout the bootcamp they build up your resume and Linkedin presence and they have a strong plan after the boot camp to assist in career search. There are areas of improvement though: there were definitely days where there are a lot of "open studio" to work on our submissions to the point where it doesn't feel like we should be forced to go into class. Attendance is important but the way it is measured is a bit silly. Open studio starting at 11am sometimes but you are not allowed to leave until 330 or you will be docked half day absent. There is a 90% requirement of attendance which is a tad high. I feel like attendance should be a bit more flexible on open studio as people work best in different environments. Days where I want to be collaborative/ask questions, I will stay in class but other days I need to focus in a quiet environment and it seems like a waste of time to stay in class for the sake of attendance when all I'm trying to do is put in the work. Also life continues and it would be nice to use some open studio time to catch up on appointments and things without having to inform Brainstation. Lectures should be mandatory but open studio should be OPEN. There were also times where schedules would change on the day of, which makes things difficult to plan ahead for the week. It would be nice if schedules were finalized at the start of the week. Overall, I'm glad I took the bootcamp and I think it sets up up for success in your new career!

My Digital Marketing Course Experience
I am an entrepreneur, and understanding the basics of Digital Marketing was ideal for me. I didn't know I was going to go beyond that with this course at Brainstation. This course surpassed all of my expectations and I delivered a full report at the end of the course demonstrating my abilities to take on this job full-time if I wanted to. I am grateful for the opportunity and the talented instructors helping and guiding us along the way.

Great way to understand the core tools and principles of data analytics
This course was a great way to learn more about the principles of data analytics and more importantly the tools and software used by professionals in the industry today. Especially valuable was access to Tableau since there isn't a free equivalent for you to gain experience with elsewhere (as opposed to excel/Google sheets). I was really impressed by the instructors for their ability to tie back our assignments and learnings to real world examples from their day to day work in data analy...
This course was a great way to learn more about the principles of data analytics and more importantly the tools and software used by professionals in the industry today. Especially valuable was access to Tableau since there isn't a free equivalent for you to gain experience with elsewhere (as opposed to excel/Google sheets). I was really impressed by the instructors for their ability to tie back our assignments and learnings to real world examples from their day to day work in data analytics roles.

The only thing I would have liked to see more of is independent course work to supplement the in class sessions. There isn't the opportunity to get real time feedback on your learning progress outside of the instructors, and it would be nice to revisit some fundamentals you learn in class with additional practice questions.
