    Best career decision. Seriously.

    Hello everyone!

    I am a student in the 10th week of UT Coding Bootcamp - I love it so far, here's why:

    1. I really like my instructor, Jim McCoy, he makes learning fun, and keeps the class engaged with humor. He explains concepts so well that those with little experience (me!) can still grasp the complicated subject matter. The teacher for the other class, Roger Le, is also a super knowledgable, helpful academic staff member.

    2. They teach us real world applica...

    Great

    Learning NLP through machine learning has been an exciting and rewarding experience. As a beginner, I have ve enjoyed exploring how algorithms process and understand human language. From text analysis to speech recognition, every concept has opened new doors for creativity and problem-solving. The journey has been both challenging and fascinating, making me even more eager to dive deeper. Seeing how NLP shapes communication and technology inspires me to keep learning. This has been a gre...

    Course designed with perfection

    One of the best program that I have ever seen in my 10 years of post regular education. The way the course was structured, the way the course was delivered and the over all support received during the program was top notch. If you have time and can spend time to learn the education for next gen ? whether you are technical or non technical this course is for them. Kudos to all the support team,their support was unmatched.

     During all the studing, the instructor provided us with excellent guidance. Although I'd say this experience was rather challenging for me, everyone was incredibly polite and supportive. For me it was a fantastic and brand-new experience.

    Great Learning is unprofessional and has out-of-date course materials.

    I signed up for the Graduate Learning Certificate Program through UT Austin for AI / Machine Learning and it has been a very frustrating experience. The materials have not been up-to-date, the mentor through the first 1/2 of the program was barely understandable, and now they have extended the program end date from mid-Dec to mid-Jan. In addition, they micro manage you by forcing you to attend a Saturday class weekly at 9:00 am in order to get credit for it, even though it is recorded an...

    Artificial intelligence and machine learning

    Overall, it was a great experience. Very demanding and engaging, but definitely worth it! Most definitely not an easy course but you’ll be exposed to all the tools needed to be successful in this field, learn and solve real world problems which I really liked. Amazing experience and I’m happy I got to be part of it.

    Cyber Security Bootcamp

    I attended the Cyber Security bootcamp at UT Austin. I had a great experience overall. I worked full time, and I found that part-time was not too bad to handle. I enjoyed what we learned curriculum-wise. I would have liked to learn more hands-on, current technologies in the Forensics unit. I really enjoyed the projects we did, however, I would have liked a little bit more diversity in the topics. For instance, instead of doing another red team vs blue team project, a forensics project wo...
