    Amazing experience with Wyncode

    The environment is absolutely amazing. Wyncode not only equiped us with the ablity to code, but also with a new perspective in learning. Never Stop Learning is the moto. Bria started off by teaching us the importance of a growth mindset, and I will take that with me everywhere I go. Big thanks to the Wyncode team, I'm happy with my decision coming here!

    Excellent learning opportunity

    I attended the Data Analytics course, 4 days In-Class in Vancouver, and I’m absolutely satisfied, both by the content and the teaching method.

    The curriculum is quite large (Database 101, in-depth SQL and Tableau, Excel advanced), and the pace is relatively high, but we were able to not only learn about each individual topic/software but also use them all at once for our final project. The In-Class version of this course offers a lot of interaction with classmates and our teacher...

    Career Never Got Going

    It has been 2 years since I graduated Brainstation's Full TIme Web Development program and I can say definitevely after 2 years that it was a mistake to attend. I was able to get a part time job based on the Career support they provided but ultimately was told by the employer that it was never going to be a full time role. From there, I did a heavy amount of job hunting, but companies don't have a lot of respect for Brainstation graduates it turns out. I was told there was a big difference...

    Hi Hannah, 

    Thanks for sharing your review of BrainStation, we appreciate the feedback.  

    As you mentioned, every year we release a BrainStation Outcomes Report, which is a review of employment outcomes for our full-time graduates. While the 88 percent graduate employment rate for Web Development is based on all industries of employment, we also include the employment rate within the relevant field of study, which is 85% for our full-time Web Development program. In the interest of transparency we also have an Outcomes Report Data & Methodology page which we urge potential new students to read. 

    We’re happy to hear that the career support did help you find part-time work, however we understand that our students priority is to find full-time positions. This is why we’ve created our Career support program, offering students the opportunity to take part in mock interviews, network with industry professionals, and present their portfolio to our corporate hiring partners at Demo Day. 

    Please feel free to reach out to the Toronto Student Experience team at contact@brainstation.io for more information on how we can offer you continued career support.

    Great intro to UX @ Brainstation NYC

    I took the four day accelerated User Experience course at Brainstation NYC, and came away impresed by the knowledge and practical experience I gained in that short period of time. Eduardo was an experienced and engaging instructor, and I appreciated how the curriculum balanced conveying theoretical concepts and helping us develop real skills by introducing us to industry tools and applying them to a capstone project.

    The campus itself occupies a gorgeous space in Soho, and the su...

    Data Analysis

    I recently took the 4-day intensive course online for Data Analytics and overall was quite happy with the experience. I found the instructor/s were knowledable about the course content and were able to customize the lesson based on what our group wanted extra learning from.

    The curriculm itself was good, but I think the organization of the information could have been better - we covered basic rules of data presentations toward the end when I really felt like we should have cover...

    Wyncode - MIA - C26

    Wyncode has been one of the best experiences of my life. Whether it be the curriculum, the instructors, the staff, or the job support. Wyncode excels at delivering on it's promise to their students. As a graduate of the University of Miami's  School of Business, I can say that a standard 4-year degree is indeed valuable, however it definitely did not prepare me for the job search / experience post graduation. But at Wyncode, I was able to learn the pratical skills needed to land myself a f...

    As a complete stranger to Product Management, I found this couse to be extremely insightful and engaging. The instructors, Andy and Khalid, are approachable, friendly and knowledgeable. I highly recommend this course to anyone looking to make an entry into Product Managment or refine their knowledge.
