User Experience Design Bootcamp
I have recently just completed the Full Time User Experience Diploma program at BrainStation Toronto. I had previously studied UX/UI design in a traditional college setting, but what I found I was missing were professional pieces for my portfolio, a thorough curriculum that followed industry standards, and a small class environment with assistance from teachers.

I have recently just completed the Full Time User Experience Diploma program at BrainStation Toronto. I had previously studied UX/UI design in a traditional college setting, but what I found I was missing were professional pieces for my portfolio, a thorough curriculum that followed industry standards, and a small class environment with assistance from teachers.
BrainStation fulfilled all those needs for me that I was missing in the traditional college education experience. BrainStation gave me such a thorough understanding of what you need to know as a UX/UI designer, and what a day in the life would be in this role. The classroom setting was exceptional. There was always someone to offer assistance, whether I had a question or wanted feedback on something that I was working on. By the end of the program, I had multiple projects that I felt confident enough to showcase in my portfolio.
The best part of BrainStation which I was not expecting to get out of the course was the sense of community. I always looked forward to going to class and seeing my friends, and have made connections which I will cherish for many years to come.
I highly recommend BrainStation to anyone who is looking into a bootcamp style course.

Data Science Diploma ( Full time)
I have recently just completed the Diploma for Data Science in Toronto.
The course was very well structured, covered a range of programming languages needed for the Data Science jobs, the assignments were great as they pushed me to apply the material learnt throughout the week and at the end we had to present a capstone.

I have recently just completed the Diploma for Data Science in Toronto.
The course was very well structured, covered a range of programming languages needed for the Data Science jobs, the assignments were great as they pushed me to apply the material learnt throughout the week and at the end we had to present a capstone.
The capstone project for the DS program is introduced halfway through the program. It is up to the student to choose a topic and a project. The instructors held one-on-one meeting with the students to help us with our progress and provide any help as needed.
The instructors were on point, with even teaching assistants to help throughout the course. It was a great experience learning from industry experts, getting real-life examples and learning how to apply it ourselves.
The program pushed us to go to tech meetup and tech events (tickets were covered by the school), and it was a great way to learn how to network and make connections.
Beside learning about programming languages and concepts, we also learnt how to give a presentation, how to get better at public speaking, how to network, how to make an impression.
After the program ended, we got extra material to work through to help us get a job. As I finished last week's batch, I already have a meeting with a company's CEO for a potential position at their company.Brainstation community has been very supportive, helpful and understanding in the course of the 12 weeks. Best part? Their support does not end with the 12 weeks, but rather continues with job search, resume and cover letter. At the end, they even divided us into groups to make sure we stay in contact and keep each other motivated to continue growth and learning.

I just completed the Full-Time Web Dev bootcamp at BrainStation and had a great experience.

I just completed the Full-Time Web Dev bootcamp at BrainStation and had a great experience. Over the past couple of years I've tried to come home after a full time job and do some self learning and to be honest I got pretty far. It's hard to maintain that momentum though and after a while I began to get overwhelmed by not just the material but by the sheer number of hours I had to put in on top of doing my work.
Enrolling at the bootcamp gave me the time to think solely about the material. The instructors were awesome in guiding me towards the right resources, being available to answer any questions, helping out with issues in my assignments/personal projects, and even just showing me what I didn't even know existed yet!
I'm back at my job that I left before BrainStation where I work as a technical recruiter. I have more knowledge and understanding of the field, technologies, and methodologies that I've been talking about with candidates and hiring managers for the past few years! I also have a few awesome side projects that I've been working on, including one that's being used by the marketing team at work :)
Honestly, there's a lot of self motivated learning required not just here but at any bootcamp. But with the right attitude, a solid plan, and great googling ability (:p) completing the web dev program at BrainStation could be the start of a great new chapter in your story.

An excellent experience!
I am surprised with how much I was able to learn in 12 weeks. The class was challenging. We learned skills that I feel are practical and applicable. I found that having some backround in statistics as well as some recreational coding experience really helped in the adjustment to the fast-paced learning environment. I would absolutely recommend this program to those who want to shift their career to working with data.

I came to Wyncode to learn the basics of UX/UI Design and I'm leaving with a solid grounding the methodologies, princes and best practices of digital product design and mastery of the software designers use including Sketch, Adobe XD, InVision, Overflow, Whimsical, Keynote and Google forms. What was unexpected was the level and amount of collaboration we would do with the Full Stack Web Development cohort. Over the course of 10 weeks, we worked with WebDev students on multiple projects, gaining invaluable experience for our future careers, for designers to work seamlessly with developers (always a goal) they need to know how to communicate with them, how to build collaborative teams where everything is working towards a common goal.
One of the things I didn't expect when I came to Wyncode was how relevant my previous experience would be, I jumped into the program hoping that my academic and work history would help me but I was delighted to find that 7 years of working in coffee shops, restaurants and hotels taught me to see things from the customers perspective, to empathize with them, it turns out this directly translates into User-Centered Design. Working in software sales taught me how to talk to developers and how to brake complicated information down into manageable bits for the customer, this experience helped me learn to design websites and mobile apps that presented information in manageable pieces for the customer and gave me the ability to explain to the developers on our team how the product should work.
I didn't need the experience I had when I started this program but I love that jobs I thought of as totally unrelated proved to be an asset to me as a product designer.

I had a great time learning in this program. I was exposed briefly to coding prior to the course and I feel confident in the skills I learned in just 10 weeks. The course was hard to say the least but It builds good work ethic especially for the self discipline required after the course is over. The relationships built between other classmate was unexpected and immeasurable.

The founders Johanna and Juha deeply care about the students and they have created a diverse and highly engaging learning community that is transforming Miami's tech scene. The addmissions director Francis and the program manager Bria are commited to help the students succeed. The instructor Andy, is an expert in Web Development and an amazing teacher. The TAs are supportive and willing to help. After 10 weeks of learning we are being offered Job Support . Milad and Beto follow up with the students and they are great resources for finding a job. I already have an internship lined up through their Future leaders Fellowship program which is an amazing opportunity.
Becoming a coder is a challenge but you will be provided the tools for succes and at the end of the day a student will get what they put in the program. Every student in the program is eager to really learn the craft and we pushed each other to build great apps. This bootcamp is for whoever who is willing to challenge themselves and start a new career.

Best Decision of my life

Being a recent IT graduate I knew a lot of programming theory and learned some programming but the experience, projects, and mentorship goes above and beyond to set you up for real world in the tech industry. The technology stack(html, css, javascript, react,ruby) is great and very current in the market today.

The technology stack(html, css, javascript, react,ruby) is great and very current in the market today. They also have daily and weekend breakout sessions to teach new and different technolgies such as react hooks. There is not enough I can say that could represent how amazing the experience is here. By the way, this experience goes well beyond the end of the course. Last thing I want to note is that this is the only Tech Bootcamp to accept the GI bill and have a ton of scholarship opportunities for women. No mater what your background is you can become a webdeveloper.

Full stack webdeveloper
Enter to the Web developer full stack Bootcamp was a blast. I came here with some expectations, but their all were exceeded. They teach us no only how to code, but how to be prepared to find a job and to have a growth mindset. There were moments of frustrations proper of the learning process, but we always have the support of the Wyncode family. They are a big community that I am proud to be part of. Thanks, Wyncode Academy, for this opportunity.
