Disappointing Experience
On the whole, I was pretty disappointed with this course for how much I paid for it. I just finished it yesterday.
- Class size was huge, which meant not a lot of time for questions
- The instructor is probably amazing at doing data analytics himself but found he could not clearly explain concepts
- Multiple times per class I was told "you probably don't need to know this" or "you can just Google this"...so why am I paying over $2k for information I don't need...
On the whole, I was pretty disappointed with this course for how much I paid for it. I just finished it yesterday.
- Class size was huge, which meant not a lot of time for questions
- The instructor is probably amazing at doing data analytics himself but found he could not clearly explain concepts
- Multiple times per class I was told "you probably don't need to know this" or "you can just Google this"...so why am I paying over $2k for information I don't need or could figure out myself?
- Class felt a bit disorganized. While I realize a lot of schools are getting used to the digital thing, Brainstation has offered online courses for awhile, so I would expect it to be more ironed out. We spent about 15 minutes in last night's class watching the instructors discussing between each other how long people should have for presentations...the day we were supposed to do the presentations...when we had already been told we had 10 minutes to present. It just felt very disorganized and unprofessional.
- Campus support was very unhelpful-- I had to miss a class due to a religious holiday and they offered no help in figuring out alternatives and simply told me I could miss up to 3 classes and still get the certificate.
- When I spoke to a learning advisor and explained what I wanted to get out of the class, he assured me it would be a good fit for my role and function. However, I found the curriculum much more technical than expected. 3 classes on SQL, including advanced queries. To me, it feels like they need 2 streams of data analytics, one for those wanting to learn these technical skills, and one for professionals who want to understand the fundamentals, how to interact with data teams, and how to tell stories with data, but don't necessarily need advance technical skills.
I think if I had a different instructor, I would have had a better experience, as I have heard others say they enjoyed their Brainstation experience in the past. But based on the experience I just had, I would not take another course there.

If you take this course I suggest spending some time previewing the learning materials before each class and try to ask more questions and initiate more interactions with the instructor and your classmates. That would enhance your learning experiences. Also it's a good opportunity to seek advice on a career change or promotion during the course.

I completed the Product Management training at BrainStation with Michael Ayoola as the instructor. I highly recommend it to anyone seeking to learn about product management.

The course does a solid job at covering a broad set of PM topics while adopting a hands-on approach to learning through in-class exercises and projects.

Micheal was incredible at summarizing the vast amount of information and bring complex concepts to life through his experiences. He made himself available to answer any questions outside class and provided additional references to anyone wanting to dive deeper into certain topics.

I also enjoyed the balance between presentations and learning from pointed discussions and the perspectives that my class mates raised during the class.

The biggest value that I personally got out from the course is the immediate application of the concepts I learned at work and seeing the utility and practicality of what I learned.

It's a great class if you are starting out and trying to learn the basics of UX design. This is a beginner's course and if you already have some knowledge of UX, then it probably might be better to learn on your own or learning from a mentor. This course somewhat lacks of mentorship and you're often left in the dark.

UX Design Part-Time Course (2018)
I found the course to be the equivalent of topics that are touched throughout first year of art school, except to all be condensed into a few weeks. This is great for those who are looking for hands-on experience in seeing whether UX is right for them, where they get to explore the fundamental theories and tools that are relevant to the current UX climate that's happening in the industry, as taught by industry-experienced instructors.

I found the course to be the equivalent of topics that are touched throughout first year of art school, except to all be condensed into a few weeks. This is great for those who are looking for hands-on experience in seeing whether UX is right for them, where they get to explore the fundamental theories and tools that are relevant to the current UX climate that's happening in the industry, as taught by industry-experienced instructors. However, I signed up with the expectation that this UXD course (2018) is the part-time version of their UXD full-time, which is actually a completely different program, and this explains why I'm only giving it 3/5 stars, where I was only borderline satisfied with my experience but disappointed that I was misled with the title of the program. I'm currently in the midst of taking their 2020 UXD full-time program, and the intensity, content, and practices are everything that I dreamed of. The part-time course consisted of a single mini project where the student went from paper prototyping to Sketch App.

Insightful instruction from leading digital marketing professionals. This course provides a great foundation to digital marketing, and covers social media, search, and email marketing. I didn’t have a marketing background, and was able to successfully navigate the course, thanks to the comprehensible material and excellent instruction from the professor.

The course I took was very informative. What I appreciated most was how informative the instructor was. Fran was always able to provide real examples from her personal experiences in the field which helped in providing clear and concise feedback.
