Starting off I originally felt the first 2 weeks were way too easy and slow.. They really could of started off with just 1 week of the easy/everyone knows this material. After that, it started to get really challenging. I would say the projects made sense but after getting some feedback from other students who didn't finish some of their projects and somehow got a better mark then me that was something I figured was completely unfair. Other than that, the course itself for 12 weeks was hard and challenged me beyond my limits that I thought weren't possible. We lost 3-4 students during the first 4 weeks.. so this course is not for everyone! If you cannot keep up they won't do anything to help you.. You're basically on your own if you can't keep up that's it gotta drop out.

The teachers, we started off with 3 awesome teachers who teached me a lot! We were told by week 4 that we were losing 2 of our teachers (Who one works in SEO and week 5 we were doing SEO so that really sucked). That was a game changer for me.. I felt like I was somewhat discouraged because of this.

After that, our final capstone which you will have to come up with your own brand idea (THE BIG IDEA).. was an amazing experience for myself creating a brand from a start-up position. That was amazing to showcase it at the end of it all on DEMO day which is the single most important day of the course (At the end).

Now, let's talk about Demo Day.. first of all my whole course was online (Due to covid19). We proposed our project infront of maybe 60-70 people and we were told with a 97% chance of hiring rate at the beginning of the course. Yes 97%.... so after demo day all of my classmates (13 of them) not 1 of them got messaged by any recruiters!!!! This was the single most dissapointing thing ever as we waited 12 weeks for this.. and BrainStation said so many good things about it and that it would help our career development.. Well I'm still job searching 3+ weeks later and trying to get my foot in the door. I do understand it's entirely on me to find a job but the whle " 97% hiring rate and we will help you get a job " kinda was false advertisement to be honest.

Take it like a grain of salt.. this course definitely is worth it I would say but don't expect much of getting help towards finding a job you're clearly on your own with that.

All in all, a very awesome course and 5/5 for classmates and teachers helping guide me through it. I now hope I can find a job soon enough!! Take this course if you really feel you need the experience but don't expect much for help with job searching.. also the career deveolpment part was more or less a joke really.. they didn't help much for my resume at all!! Just gave me a template and told me some guidelines and post on it (1 review from it that's it.. over 12 week course)... and linkedin.. they just kinda said the DO's and DON'TS... No help in regards to actually doing your linkedin profle and what to say.. So I would say this course If I was to rate it out of 10.. I would give it an 8 out of 10.. if they can fix their problems with acutally helping out with linkedin profile and resume and getting recruiters to talk to us... Then it's a 10/10.

Thank you though for the experience and I will definitely recommend this to a friend if I want to.

I took an introductory UX design course with Brainstation and coming from a completely unrelated background (I work in finance) it was easy to follow and a lot of fun!

The course was in a small group setting and encouraged a lot of interaction between classmates.

It was incredibly helpful to hear unique experiences and meet people from various backgrounds that I wouldn't have otherwise gotten the chance to meet. The content was valuable and gave me access to tools I wouldn't have otherwise discovered on my own. Although I took the course more for fun and wasn't considering a full on career change, I feel equipped with the right resources should I want to pursue something in UX/UI. Brainstation instructors were also great overall - they were friendly and always welcomed constructive, honest feedback.

Highly recommend!

I just feel like we could have learned more if time in class was used better. The structure wasn’t always clear at times either and could have been better. Prompt feedback on projects would have been nice too instead of waiting a week to find out that you have to redo everything you’ve been working on. I honestly feel like if the class size was smaller, it could have been a lot better.

Instructors play favourites, and only help students that they like, and give one word answers or brush off completely the other ones. Save yourself the money and watch youtube videos to learn the same things or enrol in an actual college. There are claims in teaching "industry best practices" which is not entirely true. The instructor's behaviour is discriminatory. Example: I told him one teammate took credit for work I did and didn't let me present it, and he didn't even response.
There were git commit history proving this. Now that person is hired as a TA. Which brings me back to my first point about TAs. They are the ones that are teacher's pets. But don't have actual knowledge, only repeat what they are told, and take credit on other people's work. DO NOT enrol in this program. You are better off enrolling in a college or university. Or even watching youtube tutorials.

They mainly teach theory and UX ideas, and jumping in with your design skills will be perfect. If you are not a designer or proficient in adobe products, you might have a hard time, I suggest brushing up on your design skils first before taking this course. The instructors are also great and have the industry knowledge to share in class.

I would really recommend BrainStation. The best learning experience I have has to date. As an adult who is making a career change, I was introduced to BrainStation as an option to take courses online. I learnt more than I expected and our instructors were phenomenal.

I would really recommend BrainStation. The best learning experience I have has to date. As an adult who is making a career change, I was introduced to BrainStation as an option to take courses online. I learnt more than I expected and our instructors were phenomenal. They allow you to learn cutting-edge techniques that the instructors have so much experience with while working in the field. You get to learn the most in-demand concepts, skills, and tools. You gain Hands-On Experience and work on projects in a collaborative setting (both online or in class sessions) to apply current concepts and techniques and develop your skills. The Digital Marketing course included topics like:
Brand Strategy
Social Media
Analytics
Search Marketing
Email Marketing
I would really recommend it for anyone who is busy with life, but still wants to learn something new or like many of my peers who took it as a refresher course. Things are always changing in Marketing so this is really an excellent opportunity for anyone.

UI Design
Here are my thoughts on the UI course at BrainStation

- Extremely thorough

- You get what you put it in: Even at a minimum you're walking away with a nicely designed, working prototype to add to your portfolio. At a maximum you've fully designed an app with interaction design.

- Instructors are well versed in the field and high-quality educators

- I encourage students to take more time brainstorming together -- everyone had such great ideas!

- I encourage students to take more time brainstorming together -- everyone had such great ideas!

- I would have liked there to be a little more design training (colours, ratios, fonts, etc. They do cover this, but I imagine there's so much more!

- Would definitely recommend as an extra tool for your professional belt.

Highly recommend this course
I started the course in-person at BrainStation before Covid-19 hit and the experience was great. I was worried it wasn't going to be the same online but it ended up being better than anticipated and I'd of actually preferred the whole course to be done online! The Instructors were always more than happy to help us over Zoom calls and kept in touch on Slack if we had any questions.

Great but No grad help.
The class was twice a week for a month, weekdays from 6:30 - 9:30. Many days we went over as the teachers Khalid and Maliha were explaining concepts and answering questions, but never felt rushed.
Well composed and informative, however, fairly entry-level set of knowledge, which worked well for me as that's what I was looking for.
No support from Brainstation after completion for help with resume update or interview preparations.

Part-time UX Design at Brain station in Vancouver
I took the part-time class for UX Design at Brain Station in Vancouver in February 2020. I really liked the class. The knowledge from the 2 teachers was priceless as they work currently in the industry. I would have loved to have more teaching of some softwares that are useful to complete the course (and to work in the industry in general), so it's best to learn some of the tools before hand like Sketch, etc... but I would not hesitate to take another class with Brainstation because of ...
