Fantastic course so far! Fantastic course so far! Having completed the intro course, this program seems to be a really good mix between your standard intensive boot camp and something like DataQuest ore Codeacademy. This is helpful in keeping you motivated without feeling too rigid. There is the occasional issue that arises due to some translation issue (Yandex is a Russian company), but translating is hard enough without having to do it while teaching a technical subject. I'd rate this a 4.5 stars if I could due to the newness of the course and the fact it's still in development. All in all, I highly recommend at least trying the intro to see if the format works for you.

Great Data Science! Practicum by Yandex Data Science course is easy to follow, I think when you're first starting learning something completely new like Python that's really important. When I got stuck there were also hints provided that helped me figure out what I was doing wrong. I especially like that they use real world examples in order to teach skills.

They care about their students success They really care about their students success! Javascript, Python, and API's are all very tricky, but they are invested in seeing you succeed and land a role in the Tech world. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking to break into the tech industry!

TripleTen Data Science Program: Self-Paced Success I decided to enroll in the TripleTen Data Science program to pivot into a new, innovative, and in-demand career. I was hoping to secure a well-paying, engaging, and cutting-edge job in data science. TripleTen seemed like the perfect choice for my coding journey due to their extensive support, custom coding platform, job search assistance, and the money-back guarantee if I couldn’t find a job. The positive reviews also played a significant role in my decision. During a typical week of learning at TripleTen, I dedicated several hours every day to reading the chapter information, doing the corresponding assignments, and researching deeper into many of the topics covered. During project sprints, my time was dedicated to systematically working through each part of the project, from exploratory data analysis and data visualization to meeting the project’s goal. The interactive platform and the projects were definitely my favorite parts of this program. Having a dedicated coding platform made it easy to write and run code without needing to worry about having the computing resources on my own computer or needing to install necessary libraries. The projects helped me gain confidence in applying what I learned to a hypothetical but realistic project that a company might really have. Towards the end of the program, I encountered a serious bug on the coding platform. Despite submitting correct neural network code, my submissions were not being accepted, which hindered my progress. However, the tutors were friendly and apologetic, promptly contacting the relevant tech support to resolve the issue. This happened two or three times, but once the issue was resolved, I was able to proceed freely with one or two weeks lost. Assuming these technical issues were not resolved by now, take this into consideration when looking at this program. In terms of value for money, I believe the bootcamp was worth the cost. It’s an excellent option for those looking to quickly gain new skills or transition into a new field. However, it’s important to note that this program is largely self-paced and requires a significant amount of independent learning. My advice to those just starting their coding journey is to ensure that you can be an independent and self-paced learner. Create a strict schedule to allow just that to occur, without giving in to the temptation to cut corners or not dive into topics to the degree needed. Overall, I would rate this bootcamp 5 out of 5 stars. It’s a great program for those who are comfortable with self-paced learning and are looking to quickly propel themselves into the field of data science.

I really like the bootcamp I really like the bootcamp. it is different than any other bootcamp i have participated before. it forces me to understand and write codes while studying at my own pace. it makes everything really fun by giving small simple tasks which is challenging but very informative.
