    great educators, great coursemates!

    I took the Jan 2023 course in data science in-person, firstly, I really did enjoy the program it was challenging and the set up was intense, but the educators make it so that they are checking in with you and whilst they won't hold your hand they will help point you in the right direction. I learnt a lot in a small amount of time, but the quality of the education, plus the morale boosting of the other students really made this an unforgettable 12 weeks.

    BrainStation - Data Analytics Course

    I completed the 10-week analytics course. This would be an excellent course for someone that has a grasp on excel and wants to dive into visualization and start learning SQL. The instructors were amazing, and you could tell they have a passion for what they do and want to share their knowledge. Due to timing I was not able to attend any of the Networking events but they do a lot of them.

    Digital marketing

    I recently completed Brainstation's digital marketing bootcamp and loved it. The program was 10 weeks long, meeting every Wednesday evening for 3 hours of class. The bootcamp covered a breadth of topics within marketing and culminated with a final project. My favorite part of the bootcamp was that our 2 instructors really took the time to ensure we understood the topics, and even offered specialized guidance and advice when we asked for it. They really took their time to answer all quest...
