Shop 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.

Pros 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.

Just go! I did ALOT of research on bootcamps, reading reviews exactly like you are right now... If you're hesitant about attending a BootCamp because you don't know anything about tech, then this is the place for you. I learned so much and accomplished things I never thought I could. Instructors are AMAZING and so helpful! More than anything, Coding Dojo teaches you how to become a self sufficient dev

Don't miss this opportunity! My time at Coding Dojo was unforgettable. I teamed with & learned alongside some remarkably bright people. The coursework was indeed challenging and sometimes intense, which inspired me to try even harder. Happily, the instructors and assistants were there to help whenever I got really stuck.

Coding 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!
