This is a 10 week course designd for novice to intermediate data scientists. Each week is dedicated to a specific tool or theory. There is a lot of material to cover and quite frequently we ended up not being able to cover everything, whether it was the material itself or the in class exercises.

This is a 10 week course designd for novice to intermediate data scientists. Each week is dedicated to a specific tool or theory. There is a lot of material to cover and quite frequently we ended up not being able to cover everything, whether it was the material itself or the in class exercises.
In terms of the material though, it was very informative for me, especially learning about the Tableau tool. I wish there was more than one class to learn how to use it as we only had a brief overview of what it could do. We also touched upon Excel and SQL. At the end of the course, each student either on their own or with a group does a presentation on a set of data that they found interesting, using the tools and theories learned in the previous 9 weeks.
I think the course is a bit expensive. I've taken continuing education courses at various colleges and universities, and while this one has more of a cool startup environment, it's also more than twice the price of any of the 10 week courses that I've taken in the past.
I would recommend this course to anyone that has an interest in data science. There is actually a data science course at Brainstation that builds on the material from here.
I took the iOS development course at Brainstation and it was a very interesting and informative experience. We covered the fundamentals of swift and also worked in Xcode. It’s was pretty content heavy and it was easy to fall behind especially with such a condensed schedule and as a result some content felt a bit rushed. But the instructors were always there to help out along the way when complications arose.
In the end I was able to take away a newfound knowle...

I took the part time Product Management course to learn how agile teams really thrive. Having previously completed the full time UX program at BS I found quite a bit of overlap in curriculum. This is great to confirm my understanding of the material or for new students to get their feet wet. However I was looking for more in depth content. I can appreciate this is a 10 week 3h/week course and they can only go so far in depth for these areas. I suggest this course to anyone look...
I took the part time Product Management course to learn how agile teams really thrive. Having previously completed the full time UX program at BS I found quite a bit of overlap in curriculum. This is great to confirm my understanding of the material or for new students to get their feet wet. However I was looking for more in depth content. I can appreciate this is a 10 week 3h/week course and they can only go so far in depth for these areas. I suggest this course to anyone looking to peek inside the world of product management before pursuing a career in it. Also if you have a product you would like to pitch to VCs this course will prepare you to execute a proper delivery.
This is a great introduction course for those who have a guenuine interest in product management. This course sets the stage well to differentiate between product and project management, and introduces real work experience into the curriculum to give students a peek into a 'day in the life' of a product manager. Would definitley recommend to anyone looking to pursue produt management as a career, or who has an entrepreneurial spirit.
I have been working in the marketing industry for a few years and took this course to bring my skills up to speed in digital - it was a great experience!

I have been working in the marketing industry for a few years and took this course to bring my skills up to speed in digital - it was a great experience!
I was impressed by the organization of the school, the atmosphere and the classroom learning portal. Brainstation has really nailed student communication + has an incredible student portal where all of the class content lives, acing as a great rescource to continue learning outside of the classroom.
The instructors and staff were very welcoming, and it's clear they are dedicated to providing a great student experience both in and out of the classroom.
We were aware of the full course curriculum from day 1, and each week we dove more into each area of digital marketing along with students who had similar interests. It was great to learn from industry professionals and learn about the work in action on the job.
I would highly recommend this class for someone brand new to the industry who is looking to get an understanding and then make a plan to dive in deeper into the areas that really caught their attention. If you're already in the industry, you might be best suited to some networking or workshop events offered at this school - they've got a lot of great options and are truly connected in the industry.
The part-time Web Development course has been a great introduction to the world of .html, .css, and bootstrap. I joined with no previous knowledge and now feel confident reading and writing code. The instructors are there to help and, within reason, the students pick the pace of the class. If you have an interest in learning basic coding skills, this course could be your ticket.
As long as you have the mindset coming in that you will have to work hard and then work even harder you will be fine. The lecturers, TA's, and staff combined make this a fantastic environment for learning and growth. The academy wants you to succeed because when you do they do. They take a very hands on role when it comes to your progress and success, because they care.
Yes, parking is a little messy, however they are a number of easy solutions that the school has provided.

Yes, there is a gym next door and the sound leaks through the walls. It’s not that bad and honestly it makes you a better learner. If you feel like it might be an issue just check out the sound for yourself. Come take a tour and see the space. I’m telling you it’s pretty AWESOME!
If I haven’t stressed this enough I will again, every person that works here is WONDERFUL!!

I completed the course of User Interface Design a couple of weeks ago and I can truly say it was a terrific experience. This not only taught me fundamental design principles and best practices but also how to use some of the best tools of the industry.
I particularly liked the educator who had a user-centered design thinking as well as a results-minded focus. Great campus located very conveniently in Vancouver, and some very interesting folks met as part of the student community.
Would definitely recommend this course to get knowledgeable and hands-on digital design wise.
I took the Digital Marketing course in Vancouver and it was an excellent crash course in digital marketing. A lot of content was covered in the 10 weeks, so if you don’t keep up you will miss out on some valuable information. The entire course is group project based and evaluated on a final presentation. A lot of work is put in by every member and a lot of higher level learning/application will take place outside of class, so be prepared for the commitment.

The educators and guest speakers are really great, and are available to answer questions on Slack outside of class. The students all come from diverse backgrounds, which offers a range of experience to the projects. The campus is a great setting, but it would be nice to have more flexible hours to work on projects without having to book a room.
Having had no marketing experience myself, it was a great course to provide widespread knowledge of all aspects of digital marketing. It was also really great to see what it takes to put together a marketing plan from start to finish. All-in-all, it was a great course.
this course was really well laid out and defintely covered every aspect of UX development. I ahd a little bit of experience in UX before entering the course, however I did throughly enjoy learning form the basics and then more complicated programs and such. The student community was really invovled and interested in the course which contributed to a great learning envrionment.
