    Coding Bootcamp Review

    My experience doing the software engineering bootcamp with HyperionDev was great they have this amazing support structure and you are able to book online calls with you're mentor that will help you if you stuck or not understanding certain parts. The work content is nice and challenging and doing this course improved my problem solving skills and self discipline.

    Software Engineering Bootcamp

    I have learned a lot from doing the Software Engineering Bootcamp, opting for the part-time online course, since it fitted best with my personal situation at the moment. 
    I feel confident in the skills I have learned in Python, Java and some SQL programming.I feel filled with the  passion to learn even more about these topics and to take on the new Adventure that my new Career in software is sure to be.

    HyperionDev student review

     My experience at HyperionDev has been absolutely amazing. I am an online student at HyperionDev and I have chosen the software development course. I started as a complete beginner with no knowledge of programming. HyperionDev explains the work to you through the lectures, then provides tasks for you to do. The instructions of the task further explain the content and are clear on what you must do. Once you are done, you submit your work to your personal mentor. He/She reviews ...

    HyperionDev JHB Campus Review

    I am really enjoying this bootcamp so far. The mentors are there to help. The daily tasks are pushing me to get better.

    One thing that needs to be improved is the system for booking time with mentors. 

    Right now, it is disorganised in that respect. 

    The only way to ask a question is to keep going to them, and I am never sure if it is a good time.

    Before starting the Data Science bootcamp, I had no experience in coding. 6 months down the line, I have coded so much that my collegues at work believe that I know every coding language. However, I can confidently say that I am now comfortable with Python. 

    This code, has not only taught me how to do coding only. It has taught me how to look for relevant information that can  help me build models that work. 

    My mentor was very helpful and I must admit the career suppor...

    Data Science Bootcamp

    I am currently a student at HyperionDev in South Africa, and am more than half way through the bootcamp.

    The bootcamp is challenging and meets all my expectations. It is really a good self study and you have to do a lot of research, which HyperionDev put you on the right path with Milestone Projects to complete it really is a must for everyone seeking to gain knowledge in the Data Science field.

    I am 45 years old and there really is no age limit to furthering knowledge....

    Software engineering bootcamp

    I’m currently doing the software engineering bootcamp at Hyperiondev, the course is very structured and straightforward. My mentor has been very encouraging and motivates me when I feel stuck during the bootcamp.

    Independence with Support

    During the 1st month of studying with HyperionDev, I had no experience with coding. However, through hard work & support of my mentors, I quickly learned to write programs by doing my own research, asking questions & learning new concepts. 

    The support is reassuring, it makes you feel that what you're doing is constructive. That you'll be able to takes these skills & implement it in your everyday life. They also challenge your logic & creativity with tasks that he...
