    Great but No grad help.

    The class was twice a week for a month, weekdays from 6:30 - 9:30. Many days we went over as the teachers Khalid and Maliha were explaining concepts and answering questions, but never felt rushed.
    Well composed and informative, however, fairly entry-level set of knowledge, which worked well for me as that's what I was looking for.
    No support from Brainstation after completion for help with resume update or interview preparations.

    Part-time UX Design at Brain station in Vancouver

    I took the part-time class for UX Design at Brain Station in Vancouver in February 2020. I really liked the class.  The knowledge from the 2 teachers was priceless as they work currently in the industry. I would have loved to have more teaching of some softwares that are useful to complete the course (and to work in the industry in general), so it's best to learn some of the tools before hand like Sketch, etc... but I would not hesitate to take another class with Brainstation because of ...

    UX Design and Research

    The instructors are amazing and are very informative. While there were struggles throughout the course, most came becuase creativity and design can be subjective.  I feel like it was handled pretty well with the most often phrase uttered being " Embrace Ambiguity" which at first was very fustrating but over time became a rule to follow. While the lessons taught were simple enough, what BrainStation does diffrent is force you to immediatly apply those lessons which for me was amazing. On to...

    Front-end Web Development Review

    Wyncode is a very postivie learning environment with an abundance of resources. You definitely feel the "never stop learning" mentality while at Wyn-base. The overall culture is very supportive. Additionally, the UI/UX course and web development course team up together in order to get a better feel of what working in a real product environment would feel like.

    I'm very grateful to Wyncode! If it weren't for the WIT cohort, I wouldn't have realized that I'm front-end development oriented. I never dreamt before the WIT cohort that I would be involved in something like that, pioneering and everything. I feel like I have a bright future ahead if I keep up with Mr. Mikkola's and Wyncode's advice on the job search and staying motivated. I'm grateful to my teacher, to the program manager for the WIT cohort, and everybody else who made it possible.
