GBShop around a bit I did the 20-week data science program and it taught me the basics of what a data analyst and data engineer does. Note the difference! You will need experience and training beyond this course to make it as a data scientist. The certificate is way too expensive in my opinion. If you are a beginner, you definitely will learn a bunch and it will take 25 hours per week at a minimum to understand. The teachers were cool and they gave us plenty of opportunities to ask for help beyond the weekly meetings. However, the "career service" was just Zoom calls explaining how to connect on Linked In. To land a career as an analyst, you will likely need a bachelor's degree to compete with the hundreds of other resumes. This course might benefit someone who knows how to start a business with a few other people. Other than that, you will need to either know someone in the field willing to hire you or go all out on their career path via Linked-In (message 10 people per day) to gain employment. However, you can find basic data science courses for less than $50 to test out the waters before committing to a course of this magnitude and expense.

GBRun away. I graduated from the Cybersecurity program in July of last year. The program itself contains a lot of outdated information, most of which can be found online for free or for a nominal fee. They charge $16k for this. The instructors and TAs often don’t know much more than the students. They tell you that 80% of grads find a job in the field within six months. Out of my class, less than 10% have found a job in cyber or even IT as a whole. The bootcamp doesn’t prepare you for the job market, and doesn’t teach you a fraction of what you need to know to enter cybersecurity as a career. They give you a career services rep who will have you change some things on your resume and otherwise do nothing for you. These career services advisors never stay more than a few months, which should be a huge red flag. Basically, you’re better of doing TryHackMe or HackTheBox, and investing in a few cheap online courses because you’ll get just as much out of it for a fraction of the price. Coding Dojo is taking people’s money and in return giving them nothing but empty promises.

GBPros and Cons Pros: instructors, overall curriculum, helping build your resources to be a full stack developer, the online learning platform. Cons: Career services team. The team is overburdened and doesn’t have the ability to support all students. Example - sending a resume to review. Not hearing back for 2 weeks and then them completing it during a meeting. They also don’t have connections with companies to help get you placed.

CLGood bootcamp 8 of 10 Good instructors, updated tech pathway and the platform work fine. Points that need improve traduction in my case take the chilean mern bootcamp and traductiona have a lot of errors. Other strong points of bootcamp is the work preparation and help in the search of first programmer job it’s work for me.

GBCoding Dojo partnered with me in making… Coding Dojo partnered with me in making sure I am comfortable and successful. The instructor Rob Y was patient and encouraged us to ask questions. Also I remember the times in code review where he would go beyond time schedule to make sure I understood and answer all my questions . I’m still on coding journey, thank you Coding Dojo for firm foundation!
