    Data science

    I really enjoyed the data science with Brainstation. Sure it requires time and effort, but so does any coding language. I am really glad I put the effort as I feel confident and motivated in taking up data projects and continuing the journey. The duration of the course was adequate, the exercises given pushed the students to go beyond the scope of the class and the instructors were extremely knowledgeable and supportive with the exercises and the project. 
    Highly recommend Brainstatio...

    Digital Marketing

    Ryan and Joanna were great instructors. They helped answer any questions I had, and are great mentors. They made the course experience interesting by sharing  stories related to the course work - which kept it very interesting as 3 hour classes can get tiring. I am glad I choose BrainStation as my school to complete the certificate for Digital Marketing. I will implement the new skills I learned into my future career. I highly recommend the course, if you are looking to gain knowledge an...

    Data Science Course

    I had the opportunity to join the Data Science Course at Brainstation and I must say it was such a boost to my skills. I had a basic knowledge of SQL and MySQL but the classes and the ability to teach made me learn quickly. I would highly suggest the course to everyone has deal with big sheets of data.

    The course was very informative and was at an excellent pace. The instructors took the time to explain the concepts well and were eager to answer any questions that were posed by the class participants. The ability to work on problems during the class and have the instructors post their solutions allowed me to learn by verifying what my thought process was. The final project allowed me to use all the skills I learned in the course to present an actual case and have it evaluated. Excellent ...

    Digital Marketing Bootcamp

    During the pandemic last year, I found myself with more time as work projects slowed down and we were all locked down at home. I was already working in a marketing role, but I wanted to further upgrade my skills in the digital space with some of the more technical skills such as SEO, SEM, paid ads, branding processes, DM tools, etc. 

    BrainStation's DM Bootcamp was the most brutal 3 months of my life. However, I learned SO much. It was a really valuable experience. Not only was it ...
