Here is just a sample of alumni reviews on CourseCompare from BrainStation’s Web Development Bootcamp:
“I found the collaborative, hands-on teaching approach of day-to-day class allowed me to learn in 12 weeks what would have taken me six months to a year.” – Jonny Caron
“I took BrainStation’s 10-week Web Development (virtual) course in August 2020-October 2020. I’m currently a UX Product Designer and thought it would be great to learn more about how my designs are actually coded and implemented by the team I work with…Both instructors were super knowledgeable and approachable in the online format, I frequently was able to get 1-1 time to answer questions…” – Amber Sewell
“BrainStation has made me a more confident person and has helped me find what I really want to do with my career path. The culture in the classroom is unlike the culture I’ve experienced in traditional schooling – everyone is a lot more supportive of one another and not only focused on their own progression. I learned how to learn quickly and apply quickly – a lasting skill that will definitely be beneficial in the web dev industry in the long run.” – Jessica Kwok
“I have nothing but the utmost respect for the entire BrainStation team and I cannot thank them enough for the most amazing educational experience I’ve ever had.” – Patrick Isaac
