An invaluable learning experience
My time at BrainStation was amazing and I'm kind of sad that it's ending as I was able to meet and work along side some of the most genuine, amazing people in my cohort! It feels surreal that I was able to learn so much in just 12 weeks. That's not to say it was a walk in the park as you will have to put in the effort and basically put your life on hold for the duration. But it was definitely worth it and learned so much.

The first time I took the class, we were told we could go home and complete the work on our own. There was no encouragement to stay and work together in a collaborative environment, so most people, including the instructors, just left. This made the entire course feel disengaged and lacking in depth.The few concepts I did learn came from free YouTube tutorials, which went much deeper than what was covered in the course. For the high cost, it felt unproductive and not worth the investment.I invested in the course due to them boasting "more than 90 percent of BrainStation's bootcamp graduates are employed in their fields within 180 days of graduation", but despite my six years of Digital Marketing experience, university degrees, other certifications, and now a Data Analytics project, I haven’t received a single interview from the many applications I've submitted since last summer. It’s been incredibly disheartening, and I deeply regret my decision to enroll.I spoke with a BrainStation representative regarding my disappointment and I was told to reach out to my instructors for further help, but none of them have responded to my emails. Adding to this, I was made aware by one of the students in my class that some people in the course were allowed to take it for free just to fill empty spots, such as instructors from other courses who enrolled as students in the Data Analytics class, and vice versa. As part of this exchange they have to leave a 5 star review which is why you will never get honest feedback like this.I also provided feedback through Synapse (the software with all course materiels etc), and indicated that I was open to further discussions, yet no one from BrainStation reached out to me until I reached out to them first. For the amount of money I’ve spent, I expected far better engagement and support, and a better resolution than "reach out to your instructors / come to our networking invents".Overall, this experience has felt like a significant waste of money, and I no longer believe the course was worth the investment. I hope BrainStation will take these concerns seriously and reconsider offering a refund.

BrainStation was a seamless course of fun and insightful learning. The 8 week course covered so much but was not an overwhelming experience. I really thank our teacher Aurora was helpful, easy to learn from, and even funny! She made class enjoyable and easy want to come
