In addition to providing participants with the real world cases to apply data analysis and science skills to, the program provides something just as valuable, a supportive and encouraging community of like minded individuals. Its hard to say which component of DS4A is so impactful, because all areas of the program were huge for me. If you are looking for a program to teach you skills, develop community, real world experience, and provides mentorship and career exploration tools, DS4All does just that. It is challenging, but challenging in such a way that you know that you are learning skills that are necessary. I can't promise that this program is easy, but it is definitely worth it! - Michael LawesGraduate • Data Science For All / Empowerment • OnlineVerified by LinkedInMar 18, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

Data Science For All / Empowerment - Unforgettable!
I'd like to begin by saying that first and foremost, the staff is dedicated to the cohort; this is extremely important because without this type of dedication, perhaps a program like this would not survive. Second, the program is absolutely free, which is mind blowing, albeit it does require an entrance exam, and is also diversity based, which is understandable for the nature of this program.

Second, the program is absolutely free, which is mind blowing, albeit it does require an entrance exam, and is also diversity based, which is understandable for the nature of this program.
It is a course meant for non-technical students, so from an engineer's perspective it was not as theoretically challenging as I would have hoped, however, it is not to say I was not challeneged. They teach you a lot of the basics of Python, some statistical concepts, and many other python libraries like numpy, pandas, matplotlib, etc. that are invaluable to a data scientist; the course primarily focuses on understanding your data, analyzing your data, and understanding certain issues that exist within data that create issues when deep diving into a dataset. Quite a few of these things were challenging for me in their own respective way, and I've been able to get a realistic view into the life of a data scientist.
With that being said, the format of the class is case study based, with a few take home assignments that span a week or two to complete; there is also a final project that is done as a group (4-6 students), where the groups are selected based on a few factors including area of interests, and skillset - my group had a PM, I was the programmer, a junior engineer, and an analyst. We were very successful - as were the other groups - and all our projects were quite incredible. All in all, you have to put in the work... with almost everything in life it is a 'what you give is what you get', so you should fill in all the gaps and not blame the course because it gives you more than you could ask for.
We also received links to jobs, a virtual career fair, a mentor from industry (our mentor was the director of data science at Wayfair!) - just a whole bundle of perks that is too good too be true.
Lastly, our class was just awesome, my fellow colleagues were all bright, positive, intelligent people whom of which I was thoroughly impressed with, and just impressed with how much input everyone gave. For the first time in a long time (if not the first) I was in an academic environment where everyone was happy to be there and actually wanted to pitch in, and participate and get the most out of this program. The teachers too - all super qualified, extremely bright people - the staff ...
I mean I could go on and on... go check it out...

As a current data science grad, I can attest to the strength of the program’s quality in teaching you how to think and apply the skills required to be an effective data analyst. I was also impressed by the guidance and support of everyone involved in the program.
I am very grateful for all the opportunities provided through this program and strongly recommend it to anyone who is interested in or already in a data-related role.- Tyler PortisGraduate • Data Science For All / Empowerment • OnlineVerified by LinkedInMar 18, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Data Science for All
Last August, I selected skills and areas I wanted to focus on during my last year of grad school - one of which was data analytics. Coincidentally, within the next week, I received a promotional email about a data science "Bootcamp" through Correlation One. The program hopes to provide more access to the data science field to folx from marginalized identities - creating Data Science for All (DS4A).

Coincidentally, within the next week, I received a promotional email about a data science "Bootcamp" through Correlation One. The program hopes to provide more access to the data science field to folx from marginalized identities - creating Data Science for All (DS4A). I applied for the program the next day and was accepted into their very first cohort. After a long 15 weeks where I dedicated 9 hrs of my Saturdays, I finally graduated from the program a couple of days ago!
During DS4A / Empowerment, I learned data analytics through practical cases using real data sets and completing assignments. I also completed a team project where my group aggregated Department of Ed data on colleges and created a tool to help high school seniors make the best college decision for them. I am proud of all I learned: technical skills like Python, data concepts like A/B testing, and overall data literacy. Looking forward to using my new tools in my journey post-graduation. - Kelsey CouzzoData Visualization Developer • Graduate • Data Science For All / Empowerment • OnlineVerified by LinkedInMar 18, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

Every other fellow there was passionate and brilliant, and the cohort was incredibly diverse both in terms of work experience, educational background, and life experience. Our team could not have been better, and I hope to continue working relationships in the future with the four other fellows that were assigned to our team.
The quality of instruction was the best I've ever had, and the engagement and encouragement has helped me better define my plans going forward. I am considering more education because of how wonderful this experience, led by professors from top universities, was.
There are a lot of job opportunities for Fellows who are looking to change careers. Several people I know received good offers as a part of the program, even if they had little formal tech experience. The partner companies are very active in recruiting, and fellows have access to Q&A sessions and interactions with representatives from those companies. Despite not looking for a career change, I attended several of the sessions and learned a good amount about how different companies are structured and what they are doing in terms of both Data Science and Diversity and Inclusion initiatives.
I'd hire any one of the fellows I graduated with because I know how intensive both the training and the initial recruitment process were. I recommend this program to everyone I know, and plan to stay involved in the future. I would do it again if I could! - Natalie DavisGraduate • Data Science For All / Empowerment • OnlineVerified by LinkedInMar 18, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

Training like this has been a long time coming. I think there has been a divergence over the years between post-secondary school’s value proposition (undergraduate and graduate) and the changing business landscape. The ‘degree’ has been on the decline for over a decade, and I would posit that is because many of the traditional degree-type schools grew complacent with their 20th-century model. Career progression and mobility require lifelong professional development – and the solutions need not require a pile of money or synchronous learning. #rantover
Correlation One began as an idea, as most things do in life. The team’s passion and internal compass are what gave form to DS4A. Mark my words, this program’s influence has just begun.
The more you invest (your time, your focus) in this program, the more satisfied you will be in the end.
One of the main selling points, imo, for this program is actually being able to match supply (companies) with demand (underrepresented talent). Key word, actual (and a non-trivial number of jobs looking to be filled).
Another invaluable pro. Professor Natesh Pillai. Have you seen barbers advertise, “I’m your barber’s barber”? Professor Pillai is unequivocally your professor’s professor. His energy and passion will permeate throughout the program. Professor Pillai is truly a force multiplier.
The only criticism that I can think of about the program, and it is really not enough to reduce the overall surplus in value, has to do with some of the lectures not taught by Professor Pillai. (I would be interested to hear if the C1 team was able to do any analysis in the Slack channel on lessons that Professor Pillai did not teach.)

DS4A Empowerment
I entered the program with previous experience from internships and found that the program was immensely beneficial. Not only did I have the chance to hone my skills but also to grow my network. Another key benefit was being connected to recruiters for job placement assistance both during and after the program - Jonathan Delgadillo LorenzoStudent • Data Science For All / Empowerment • OnlineVerified by LinkedInMar 17, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Fantastic Introduction to DS with Community Building and Professional Networking

This curriculum was backed by fantastic teachers led by Prof. Natesh Pillai and TAs who went out of their way to make themselves available to help students grasp the information taught throughout the week. And on our final project, we even got our own industry mentors to both network with and help form an ultimate final project on. The cherries on top were the fantastic talks that the Correlation One team helped organize by bringing in data leaders and diverse leaders who were sponsoring our program. I greatly enjoyed being part of this community of people as excited about programming and statistics as I am. I also enjoyed being part of career conversations to learn about different applications of statistics at firms in various industries. I hope people were able to take away at least as much as I was able to from this program. - KehindeGraduate • Data Science For All / Empowerment • OnlineVerified by LinkedInMar 17, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Great Learning Experience
DS4A has been a great learning experience for me. The case studies in the curriculum are real life business cases, that expounds your knowledge beyond the "book". Thanks to the prof too, Natesh - always making the learning experience fun for us. Great community to be a part of.
