Merit America Changed My Life!

Merit America was a game-changer in my career transition into data analytics! Coming from a non-traditional background in healthcare, I was looking for a program that provided hands-on training, career support, and real-world skills—and Merit America delivered!Through the program, I gained SQL, Tableau, and R skills, built a strong portfolio, and landed my first data role within 30 days of graduating. The support from the career coaches, peer network, and job search strategies made all the difference. I even secured an externship with Beats by Dre as Consumer Insights Data Analyst and a contract with Kforce as a Data Analyst, proving how impactful this program truly is.If you’re considering a career change into tech, I highly recommend Merit America. It’s not just about learning technical skills—it’s about gaining confidence, networking, and unlocking new opportunities. I’m so grateful for this journey and excited to see where it takes me next! 🚀🔥

$50 Google Certificate

A course that answers the question, "Could we charge people $6,000 to get a $50 Google career certificate." All the while being non-profit. There isn't a single coach or career coach who has experience in DA who is instructing you. Their career coaches post 2-3 jobs that they found on the internet (15 mins of job hunting) and aside from that have ZERO connections or ways of helping graduates find work.

Just Like ITT TECH

This course is just a copy and paste of the failed (and incredibly sued) ITT Technical Institute. They do not actually teach you anything. They charge you for the information that Google provides then tell you to go through it while marking off your progress along the way. I could've saved $5000.00 and done it myself instead of relying on 'instructors' that don't instruct at all. Could not recommend studying with rocks more as it is about the same.
