Better Than I Expected
I was looking to change careers. I've been working as an assembler in manufacturing for about 20 years and wanted more flexibility. I was interested in marketing but lacked the skills to feel confident about pursuing it. At a friend's suggestion, I looked into boot camps and discovered the UofT SCS Digital Marketing Boot Camp. I was impressed by the curriculum, which offered every topic I could imagine related to a career in digital marketing, from social media, organic search, paid ads ...I was looking to change careers. I've been working as an assembler in manufacturing for about 20 years and wanted more flexibility. I was interested in marketing but lacked the skills to feel confident about pursuing it. At a friend's suggestion, I looked into boot camps and discovered the UofT SCS Digital Marketing Boot Camp. I was impressed by the curriculum, which offered every topic I could imagine related to a career in digital marketing, from social media, organic search, paid ads to CRMs and automation.
The instructor was fantastic, very knowledgeable, patient, and ensured everyone understood the topics. The topics were covered in-depth, there were many real-world examples, walkthroughs showing how different platforms and software worked, like WordPress, Google Analytics, Facebook and LinkedIn Ads, etc., and assignments to apply our knowledge. They showed us how to pull data and analyze campaign metrics to help determine performance. This program is intense with new modules almost every week, module assignments and two group projects. At the same time, it's amazing how much I've learned in such a short amount of time.

Why I waited this long to take this course?
That's the question I asked myself when I started Data Analytics Bootcamp. Fortunately, It is never too late to seek knowledge. I see the tech world differently, I see data differently, and I see websites differently. Thank you for offering this program. I will continue to gain knowledge in DevOps and Web Editing! - Neha SharmaGraduate • Data Science and Visualization - Part-Time • TorontoVerified by LinkedInFeb 20, 2024Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

Embarking on the journey of the 12-week Full Stack coding bootcamp has undoubtedly been one of the most impactful decisions I've made in my life. From the moment I enrolled to the completion of the program, every step of the way was filled with invaluable learning experiences, challenges, and personal growth.
The structure and curriculum of the bootcamp were meticulously designed to provide a comprehensive understanding of both front-end and back-end development. Week by week, we delved into a diverse range of topics, from HTML and CSS to JavaScript frameworks, databases, and server-side programming languages. Each module built upon the previous one, reinforcing concepts and allowing us to gradually expand our skills.
One of the most remarkable aspects of the bootcamp was the hands-on approach to learning. Rather than passively absorbing information through lectures, we were encouraged to actively engage with the material through coding exercises, projects, and real-world simulations. This practical, project-based learning style not only deepened our understanding but also equipped us with the practical skills and confidence needed to tackle real-world coding challenges.
The support and mentorship provided by the instructors and teaching assistants were instrumental in my success throughout the bootcamp. Their expertise, guidance, and unwavering encouragement created a supportive learning environment where I felt empowered to push my boundaries and strive for excellence. Whether it was troubleshooting a bug in my code or seeking advice on career prospects, they were always available to offer assistance and guidance.
The bonds formed during late-night coding sessions and shared victories over challenging assignments created a sense of belonging and solidarity that extended beyond the classroom. We celebrated each other's successes, supported one another through setbacks, and shared in the collective joy of overcoming obstacles. These shared experiences forged friendships that will undoubtedly endure long after the bootcamp has ended.
In conclusion, the 12-week Full Stack coding bootcamp was not just a journey of technical skill acquisition but also a transformative experience that shaped me both personally and professionally. It instilled in me a sense of resilience, determination, and community that will continue to guide me on my journey as a software developer. For anyone considering enrolling in a coding bootcamp, I cannot recommend it highly enough. It may just be the best decision you ever make. - Sneha SridharanAccount Manager • Student • TorontoVerified by LinkedInDec 20, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Extremely engaging and educational
I thoroughly enjoyed the course. The rich knowledge shared by the instructor, Mark and TAs, Bertram & Ravina was unparalleled. As a full time employee, I was very skeptical when I joined this course, and wasn't positive I'd be able to manage my time well, while I struggle learning new concepts. The whole experience, in the contrary was encouraging and absolutely helpful. The virtual classroom setup as conducive for a good knowledge share and communicative lessons.

While this gave me a strong foundation in technological principles, my exposure to reviewing fraud in social services ignited an interest in digital security. I recognized that in this digital age, safeguarding data and ensuring the integrity of systems is of paramount importance. This realization was accentuated by the increasing frequency of cyber-attacks and data breaches in the news.With a desire to pivot into cybersecurity, I began researching educational programs that would facilitate this transition. UofT SCS Cybersecurity Boot Camp stood out, not only due to its reputation but also because of its comprehensive curriculum that promised a blend of theoretical knowledge and hands-on experience.Experience with UofT SCS Cybersecurity Boot Camp:Stepping into the boot camp, I had minimal knowledge of cybersecurity.

Life changing experience
I am hoping to make a career change and this was a stepping stone towards that change. It was a very intense endeavor and I gained both the theoretical as well as practical knowledge of cyber security. However, this knowledge and experience is not enough to sit for the Multiple Choice Questions format exam that is required to pass for the Security+ Examination.
I strongly believe that the course should incorporate the practical aspect of how to sit for this exam in the real world. ...I am hoping to make a career change and this was a stepping stone towards that change.
