At the risk of shooting myself in the foot…I’d like to present a reality check of the DU Data Analytics bootcamp based on my experience last year and hopefully help someone who’s considering whether or not to drop 10 grand on the dream.
First of all, class lectures were pretty frustrating and more demoralizing than encouraging. Secondly, the support system isn’t really geared for those who are struggling.

At the risk of shooting myself in the foot…I’d like to present a reality check of the DU Data Analytics bootcamp based on my experience last year and hopefully help someone who’s considering whether or not to drop 10 grand on the dream.
First of all, class lectures were pretty frustrating and more demoralizing than encouraging. Secondly, the support system isn’t really geared for those who are struggling.
Pros
Intelligent quirky instructor who has real-world experience
Tutors can help flesh out the lectures and allow you to complete the homework
Career counseling provided some feedback that was insightful
Cons
Instructor teaches at a high level that is often unrelatable or not simply explained.
Student Success Manager is virtually absent and too busy to respond to inquiries (although I suspect this review might get his attention)
Weekly survey feedback is never addressed.
Career advisors don’t have any particular industry contacts to share. Their advice is generic and widely searchable.
Conclusions:
I learned a lot and racked my brain to extremes. If I had to do it over again though...I would make the following adjustments:
Look at educational organizations that guarantee money-back job placement. Thinkful is one such organization in Denver.
Explore free online resources. There are many great educators that record videos on specific programs. I learned the most this way actually and have been tempted to design a free curriculum for prospective learners.
Look for instructors who have a balance of field and teaching experience.
Despite all the rave reviews on this site, I’m not the only one from my class who had a similar experience as described. Very often after class I would commiserate with others who were equally frustrated.
I’d like DU’s program to succeed and to get that dream data job that I sacrificed so much for (a career change). But the reality is it’s been four months since I graduated and I’m still applying without much success. I’d rather be telling you a different story and I hope that will change in the months to come, but for now this is the stark truth.
I hope this feedback helps prospective students decide what to do based on a more rounded picture.
