    Such a positive environment !!

    I'm super happy I attended the boot camp at Spiced!
    All of the staff is super helpful and has such a positive energy. 

    I started with basic knowledge of HTML and CSS and learned a lot about web development and feel definitely job-ready.

    Things which can be improved:
    Since it is a very personal experience and it very much depends on everyone's self, I still think that the BootCamp can be a bit more intense. Sometimes there was a bit too much free time between the class...

    Data Analytics Bootcamp

    I participated in this Bootcamp during the summer '22 and I cannot be happier with the experience. Nine intense weeks fully immersed in the learning process have equipped me with the tools I need to start my career as Data Analyst: Python, SQL and Tableau, plus career coaching that increases the chances to find a job after the Bootcamp. 

    My recommendation for anyone interested in this Bootcamp is to have some basic knowledge of Python. Although the course takes you from the very b...

    I had a great time!

    I have a natural science background and decided to switch careers to the field of Data Science and Data Analytics. My motivation to take the SPICED Data Science Bootcamp was to brush up my Python programming skills and to learn the current data science methods in hands on projects. I had already some self taught experience in python, but was not confident enough in my programming skills to use them in my projects. The bootcamp changed that!

    Data Science Boot Camp

    During lockdown I completed the Data Science Boot Camp to 100% remote. Which was a quiet tough challenge for me as newby in coding, guess a little more tough as to do the class room course. Due to 100% remote class room I was missing a little the interaction between or after the class room sessions between us students. Anyway it was a great experience which I didn't wanna miss, especially with our very knowledgeable teachers which gave us a great support! As well the Spiced team around u...

    Spiced successfully kickstarted my career in tech. That's it. What else can I say.
    I also learned a lot about problem solving in general.
    The teachers were very approachable, the curriculum was very well prepared and thought out imo, and I had a great connection with other students.
    It can be a little overwhelming if you haven't coded before, so I'd definitely recommend preparing as much as possible. The more you prepare the easier of a time you'll have, plus you get to ask much...

    Fullstack web developer course

    I  graduated from the full stack web developer course in June 2021. Following graduation, I received one-to-one career coaching to enable me to successfully gain employment within software development.

    The course structure and delivery is well planned and industry applicable. The Spiced team are attentive, knowledgeable and always willing to support. 

    I remain in touch with a lot of the Spiced team and I would definitely recommend a bootcamp and Spiced for anyone looking to...
