    Amazing course!

    This is an amazing course with great content and engaging session. Very hands on experience, filled with fun excursuses and challenging projects. I would recommend this course to folks who are new to python and data science, but have some basic understanding of data analytics. Thank you to Brainstation team for this course!

    I highly recommend the in person bootcamp, i made life long friends and together we attended amazing networking opportunities. The instructors were good but the course material was nothing you couldn’t find yourself online. If you need some structure and want to be in a supportive environment then this is for you.

    Great way to build your foundational knowledge

    It’s a great bootcamp for people with zero tech experience that want to get a solid foundation of the basics of web development. You learn a lot but it’s up to you to refine your skills later on
