    Excellent

    I started this bootcamp knowing only a bit of HTML and CSS, but now I have a solid understanding of Git, GitHub, JavaScript, SCSS, Node.js, Express.js, Knex.js, and ReactJS. The instructors were awesome and really helped me grasp these new skills. The projects were hands-on and practical, which made learning fun and effective. Overall, a great experience that prepared me well for the job market. Highly recommend!

    Pretty good overall

    I really enjoyed the group learning experience and the constant feedback we got from peers and instructors. I wish we would have covered some topics more in depth and that we would've had a more structured career support curriculum.

    Very eye opening

    The experience was amazing. I had very little knowledge of the Digital scene of how everything worked behind the scenes. By attending this Digital Marketing course, it enabled me to see how companies optimise their advertisement techniques to get their products out there for a wide variety of audiences! Understanding the competition and how people depend on online information to run their daily lives, it is astonishing to see the different reasons to why people use the online space! Hence,...

I appreciated the hands-on projects that allowed me to apply what I learned to real-world scenarios.
    The instructors were knowledgeable and engaging, providing clear explanations and practical examples. The learning materials were well-organized, and the assignments challe...

    UI Design at BrainStation (Online)

    Overall great course.  It was quick since it's only 8 weeks.  The final project was open to whatever we wanted and it was a good way to apply everything we learned.  It's a great starting point for those looking into getting into the field but it's just a starting point.  I'm hoping to use my project as part of my portfolio and I hope to take more classes at BrainStation soon.

    BrainStation Online UX Bootcamp

    I am a recent graduate from BrainStation online UX bootcamp which lasted 12 weeks. I have to say, this was quite an experience! I came in with almost no knowledge of UX design process besides some transferable skills from previous job and education and a Coursera course under my belt. In the first 2 weeks of the bootcamp we already completed our first project to get a taste for the UX field and what to expect. Afterwards we went deeper into learning. And our great educators were able to ...
