I graduated with a master's in Data Science and Engineering, but due to many life circumstances had not been able to directly apply my education. Though I had over a decade of analytics experience, my current employer did everything except handcuff people to their current roles due to business needs, meaning no advancement and no potential to apply for a better-fitting role, and so my skills were atrophying. I had to do something, so I decided to take this course to refresh my experience and keep my brain working. The material felt far more approachable than it did in my master's program, and not just because I was familiar with the content. Where my professors were often stand-offish and I actually had two that said they shouldn't be expected to 'hold my hand', the mentors and instructors were amazing in answering questions and connecting via LinkedIn. I was surprised how approachable these highly-educated individuals were. Additionally, these individuals don't just teach, they are working in the field. It makes a difference! They can give real-life examples that bring concepts into focus. They don't just answer questions, they encourage them. My master's program may have gone into deeper detail, but I almost feel as if I've gotten more out of this 4 month program than I ever imagined I could have. You can't help but learn in such a supportive environment. Because of this course I am regaining the confidence I've lost and redeveloping the skills that have gone rusty in my current role. It has also given me the confidence to take more advanced courses so when I decide to begin looking for new roles I'll feel like I am a strong contender. I would recommend this course to anyone at any level of experience. It was a wonderful experience and exactly what I needed to regain my confidence in my skils.
