    BrainStation Data Analytics Miami Course

    For the past 10 weeks I have had the best class ever. As a college student I am use to the classroom experience and really moving through course material but a lot of the time having it not stick. However, the BrainStation Data Analytics course that I took here in Miami was hands-down the best professional learning class I've ever had. My teacher was phenomenal. Not only is she excellent at teaching but she has 20 years of experience that she brings to class room. Truly walking away with...

    Great Immersive Experience!

    I wanted to learn the fundamentals of UX design to help me in my freelance web design business. I was able to learn that, and much, much more! I feel 100% more confident in my ability to design simple, intuitive user experiences which will help grow my clientele. This course allowed me to become more professional and efficient at what I already love doing!

    UI/UX course

    This was a great intro course to learn how to start exploring UX and UI and see if it was something I wanted to learn more about. I still have a lot to learn but this was a good starting point.

    Cool, Informative, organized,

    The course was a great introducion to Cybersecurity. I am very new to this and found the instructors were very knowledgeable and guided the course very well. I would suggest more hands on mini projects like audits or reporting. Or break down secions into homework that gets the class to think about what they have learned. I would definatly recommend this course to others. Also as a group go over the project in parts as the course goes by.

    A good entry to data analytics

    Ryan and Michelle were very nice during the whole class. They were very helpful when we had problems and made sure we don't have any questions before moving into the next chapter. The course provides a good outline on what data analytics is and by the end of the course you will have a good understanding of what kinds of data you can get from large sources of data.

    Great learning and collaborative environment

    The best part about BrainStation is the learning style is very engaging and made to help you collaborate with other students. This made the course more enjoyable as it becomes easier to understand the content when speaking about it in an open format. There are lots of opportunities to take pauses and try a real-world exercise that can test your understanding. Overall the content is informative about product management but serves more as a starting point for you to jump off from and conti...

    Really practical and useful!

    I really liked the in-person aspect of learning and engaging with my classmates and learning together. I developed skills that I have wanted to for a very long time but didn't have the discipline to carve out time during the week to do - and I was able to build a prototype of an idea I've had for a very long time. I enjoyed the structure of the class of bringing in my own idea and applying my learnings.

    My overall experience with Brainstation's - Product Management course has been really great. All my expectations have been exceeded. The teachers have been engaging and were great with bringing real life experiences to the discussion. They encouraged a lot of class participation which allowed for different perspectives to be brought in to allow for a wholesome experience. I highly recommend taking a class with G and Carmen!
