Introduction on Fintech
The course is quite different from general course. The course is held by a real fintech company, so I can get reach to their CEO and understand what a fintech company was. And also, as rookie on Finanical, they provide a clear understanding lesson for me to understand some basic financial knowledge. It's a new operating course, so there is some problem on course structure, but all teachers and mentors able to revise it asap. On the final day of the course, I appreciate all my tutors, th...The course is quite different from general course.

A surprisingly thorough and comprehensive course despite short timeframe and complex topic
I'm now 5 weeks into the H Academy Data science course and I've already begun incorporating a lot of the concepts I've learned into my work and I can honestly say i've become a more effective project manager as a result. Data science is a complex subject so I initially doubted how much I could learn within the short 6 weeks.

Data science is a complex subject so I initially doubted how much I could learn within the short 6 weeks. But, while the pace of the class is fast, the instructor walks through multiple real world examples of all concepts we learn which really helps me understand the material better. She also assigns weekly homework that is perfect for practicing the programming language syntax.
Admittedly, this is not an easy course you can just cruise through. You will definitely have to spend some time outside of class to review the material in order to maximize your learning. However, the instructor is always willing to review concepts should there be any confusion and there is ample supplemental notes/documents provided to support your independent studies. It's not easy to find crash courses that are actually effective. H Academy's Data Science course in my opinion is one of the few I've taken that is. - Vera ChanContent Marketer • Student • Digital Marketing • Hong KongVerified by LinkedInApr 21, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

This course teaches you a lot from domain knowledge in fintech to learning how to build chatbots and apply them into wealth journeys. It is a fast paced course, so you need to keep up but it's well worth it and definitely can help you boost your chances to get a career in FinTech! They also offer practical projects with banks and a global mobile maker so you get to apply your learning into real projects. I highly recommend this course for anyone wanting to learn about chatbots or getting into FinTech. Most academies offer courses, but H Academy not only offer quality courses but they have a very strong career support as they have their own job platform. They have helped me land 3 internships including one with a global chemical company recently. Their career support is second to none! 5 stars all the way! - Adnan SaeedStudent @ Hong Kong Baptist University • Student • UX Design • Hong KongVerified by LinkedInMar 30, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

Redesign your thinking
This is my first ever design thinking course in my life. And it is more than a design course.
It is the kind of course that teaches you to fail cheaply and quickly. Through out the course, we constantly practiced Enterprise Design Thinking in workshop sessions prepared by our instructor Michael Tam, who has more than 10 years of experience in well-known advertising agencies for more than 10 years. There might be times we were stuck in thinking human-centric-ly, but it is okay. We ...This is my first ever design thinking course in my life. And it is more than a design course.
It is the kind of course that teaches you to fail cheaply and quickly. Through out the course, we constantly practiced Enterprise Design Thinking in workshop sessions prepared by our instructor Michael Tam, who has more than 10 years of experience in well-known advertising agencies for more than 10 years. There might be times we were stuck in thinking human-centric-ly, but it is okay. We get our thoughts on paper with post-its, step back, and ask as many "why"s as possible. Then we ideated, reflected, and looping this process again and again.
There are always a lot of unexpected things where we don't know what to do at times. But this is also the course that helps you to truly embrace ambiguity by bettering ourselves into a constantly improving individual - from drafting a product, designing an experience, developing a new business, or in life generally. - Lewis WangStudent • UX Design • Hong KongVerified by LinkedInMar 30, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Experience Design Part-Time
This class was a great experience that emphasises Empathy at its core as you spend countless days and hours trying to understand your user.
The instructor Michael Tam has a lot of experience and makes it easy to understand. Kudos to Julio and his team to always providing assistance throughout the course!
Cons: I wish the course was longer; I was having so much fun and making new friends. - CHAN Ho MingStudent • Student • Data Science & Machine Learning • Hong KongVerified by LinkedInMar 28, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
A good starting point to the realm of data science
The course conductor was professional and possesses top-notch skills as proved by his career background of working in the QFin space. His teaching and the materials provided were to-the-point, making picking up data science a lot easier than originally foreseen. The class size was small, such that each student would receive optimal level of guidance. Overall, it was a good experience to kickstart one's learning in the data science field.

I really enjoy the intentive UX class from H Academy. Michael, Karen and Shirley introduced the design concept and theories in a nutshell, which could let a beginner of the design field absorb them easily. Apart from the course, there are also ongoing events, hackathons etc to help us broaden our network, as well as applying the theory into real world.- Carman LauGraduate • Hong KongOct 14, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Good course for beginners
This UX courses provide a fundamental concept for you about UX design in a nutshell, with inspiring and interactive education methods. The tutor and teaching assistants create the best chemistry to the students in need. Real life projects are super useful for understanding boring concepts. Love it!
While this course is mainly covering UX, for those who needs UI training may consider other courses.
