    Great bootcamp / crash course into product management fundamentals

    Great Bootcamp / crash course into product management fundamentals. 
    Very interesting course, and great to hear about experiences from a professional product manager.

    2 of my favorite things about the course were hearing Jeremy's interesting opinions on different aspects of product management and the group work projects were very, very fun!!
    Makes me wish the group work was actually my job!

    Web Development course

    The course is primarily focused on nailing the basics of HTML and CSS which should give you a solid foundation in order to build on your knowledge further as an aspiring to be front end developer.

    Very good experience

    Overall this bootcamp was a very good experience. I gained a lot of knowlegde that is useful for my future careers. Though the whole course was very rushed and the hours were long, the content was very valuable and it gave an opportunity for people who have full time jobs. More time to ask questions may be good. Cameras should not be mandatory as some people do not have access to cameras or they are not in the environment to have their camera on.

    Excellent Engaging Data Analytics Course!

    I absolutely found this course amazing! I am a student that has no previous experience in tech, yet the course is super beginner friendly. I love how my instructors are all in top tech industries teaching us strategies they use in their day-to-day work. I was able to learn SQL and grasp Tableau in such a short period and I couldn't do it without the help of my instructors, Nathan and Wesley!!!

    Perfect course for those who want to transition to UX

    The course is well structured and taught by people working in the industry. Teachers have a teacher assistant who helps with the flow of the course. The class deals with both the theoretical and skills elements of UX and UI. I would highly recommend it for the price.

    Great springboard for launching into a new career

    I thought that the tutors were really supportive and proactive in helping us all learn with lectures, projects, design sprints all geared towards ensuring we have all the necessary tools for industry. It is a very fast paced course, but I would say it was great that this could all be condensed into 3 months. BrainStation is a great place for networking and building new relationships in tech.

    Intense but worth every moment

    Just completed the 3-month full time UX Design Bootcamp at BrainStation and it was the best decision I could've made for my career and myself. 

    Some positives: 
    Content-wise, the course covered everything you'd need to know to become a UX/ UI Designer -- from UX fundamentals, to motion design to responsive design. I particularly liked that the course had a big focus on both UX and UI (I'm conscious that some other bootcamps do not offer as much focus on the UI side, which is so...
