    Great product management course

    I have just finished the Product Management Course and I really enjoyed it. The instructors were great and because this is the area they work in, they could relate it to an every day, real world example. I would have preferred to have my strategy feedback earlier than 2 days before I was due to do my final project presentation, but it didn't affect it that much. It was just a few tweaks. Other than that, I really enjoyed it. Instructors and fellow students were great

    Product Management evening course

    I took an 8-week evening course in Product Management to up-skill in my collaboration with product managers as a product designer. I found the course to be a great introduction to the key topics of product management, yet provided indepth knowledge about the profession that I wasn't even aware of from my day-to-day as a designer. I found the final project to be a great way to apply all of the knowledge we gained, and my fellow classmates were incredibly engaged, knowledgeable and from di...

    Such a worthwhile experience

    I am so glad I did this bootcamp. The instructors are in the UX/UI field themselves so they are super knowledgeable and are so helpful. The environment is very constructive and supportive. I learned a lot and have developed a lot of skills and a great piece for my portfolio.

    Interesting, Insightful, Clear

    I felt like the instructors were very thorough and really cared about if we understood the coursework. When they could tell that I was confused about something, they would help troubleshoot personally or offer to go over problems via slack outside of class. I really appreciated that they had industry experience and were able to offer insights on career questions, not just technical questions. My one concern going into the class was that I had no previous background in anything related to...

    A Mixed Experience in BrainStation's Data Analytics Course

    BrainStation's Data Analytics course featured valuable content and a well-structured syllabus. The topics covered included analyzing data using Excel, SQL, and visualizing data using Tableau, providing me with the necessary knowledge and skills for data analytics. However, for those without a data analytics background, the fast pace of the course, limited by the time allocated for teaching all topics, hindered in-depth teaching and exploration of certain concepts. Nonetheless, the course s...

    Digital Marketing course

    I took the digital marketing course in May - June 2023. It was a 3 hour course each week in person with two facilitators for a duration of 7 classes. I felt it was nice taking it in person and asking facilitators questions. It was just scratching the surface with marketing. We were required to complete a course project and complete it on time.  I did find it challenging working in a group. Two members did leave the course however we managed to complete the course  which did prepare us fo...
