    Immersive Delight to a New World of UX/UI Design

    With interactive activities and comprehensive projects, I was able to turn my knowledge into action. This boot camp provided ample support outside the classroom and constructive feedback on each graded activity. All in-class activities were well explained. Each class had a new topic broken down into laymen's terms for people (myself included) with no experience in the field. It was easy to follow, if I had any questions I felt invited to ask the instructors. Both the instructor and TAs w...

    Full of Suprises

    This course taught me I am so much more capable than I think I am. Growing up, I didn't think I was any good with computers or coding and that there wouldn't be a place for me in the tech industry. However, I was unhappy with my current job prospects as someone with chemistry/biology degrees and knew I wanted something that allowed for more creativity while still being challenging. I had doubts from time to time as to whether I would finish the course with the confidence to break into th...

    I took the data analytics bootcamp with little programming background, yet for the sole purpose of improving my skills as entrepreneur, or better put, “not to be dumb in today's data driven/informed world”. What I experienced was far more than what I expected. After 6 months of the bootcamp, I was not just equipped with skills to confidently use python to extract data from different sources, transform and load it into databases (including into salesforce as a bonus), analyzing the data a...

    Normally I don't write reviews but this class was so amazing. I know a huge part of it came for my amazing teacher Dartanion Williams. His teaching technique is phenomenal.

    I am a recent graduate of the Data Analytics Bootcamp. As someone who severely lacks skill in algebra, logic, and statistics, to practically pro-coder after this course, I can absolutely attest with unwavering support that this program is career-changing. I had the pleasure of being instructed by Dartanion Williams and academically supported by Gemini Sanford.

    Fintech Bootcamp

    I went through the Fintech Bootcamp. It was a six months period.  I had Mr. Dawson as my Instructor and Yohan as my TA. I learned a lot with financial technological tools and a lot of Data Science tools. Their patience and knowledge definitely made this learning process easier for me to learn. I was introduced to a lot new tools, skills and techniques to help me further my career in Fintech/Data Science and also as a programmer - which is my current profession.

    Cybersecurity

    This was an immersive program that presented a broad overview of concepts underlying cybersecurity, including network and system administration, attacks, defense, and analysis.  The instructors were extremely knowledgeable, and used their real-world experience to help us navigate both theoretical and practical applications of important cybersecurity concepts.  The structure of the course was also perfect for a full time professional who needs both accountability and flexibility.

    Game Changing

    This program was possibly one of the best learning experiences I've ever had.  It's not often that you go into something as murky as a career change knowing exactly what you want to do.  In 2019, I decided I was going to switch careers to cyber security.  I had no idea how I would get there, how much work it would take, or how long.  But on the advice of several people much smarter than me I decided to sign up for this boot camp.  It's honestly changed my life.

    I came into the program with the idea that I wanted to change careers, but I was not completely confident that I would be able to pick up so many skills in a 6-month time frame.

He makes the pace manageable, the classes fun and it's evident that he truly cares about the successes of his students, both during and after the class ends.
