Nod

 Joined Nod with a business and marketing background and honestly wasn't sure how far I'd get with programming. But the structure, the hands-on approach, and the small classroom environment made a huge difference.In 10 weeks I went from zero coding experience to building real projects in Python, SQL and Machine Learning. The focus on actually solving real problems not just theory is what sets Nod apart.it wasn't always easy but the support was always there. I'm leaving with real skills, real confidence and a completely new set of tools to take my career forward.If you're thinking about making the jump ,do it. You won't regret it. 🙌" Read less

You’ll be challenged, tried, and exhausted, but you’ll learn more about data analytics and coding in this ten-week course than anywhere else. 
The program is very hands-on, you’re coding and problem-solving from day one, not just watching or following along which is the best approach to learning how to code.
The class structure works really well. It starts with code-alongs to help you get a feel for what you’re doing, then moves into labs where you apply what you’ve learned and work through problems on your own. There will be lots of projects to work on where you can really test your skills and apply the knowledge you've gained.
Nod has also struck a great balance between making the space feel supportive and gently pushing you to keep going when things get hard. 
This experience has definitely boosted my confidence and I can't recommend it enough to those who wish to expand their skills and learn more about data. Read less

Coming from a management background with no prior coding experience, starting Nod Coding Bootcamp was honestly intimidating. The pace was intense, and there were moments where I doubted myself, but the project-based learning pushed me to grow. Through analyzing data and presenting results, the bootcamp helped me discover strengths I didn’t even know I had—like interpreting insights and explaining outcomes clearly. By the end, I went from feeling overwhelmed to confident and genuinely job-ready for a career in data analytics. 
If you are serious about making a career transition, I highly recommend this bootcamp. Read less

I recently completed the three-month Nod Coding Bootcamp in Data Analytics. While it was a significant investment that required months of work to afford, it turned out to be a valuable step in my career. I am now working as a Data Analyst at Tink with a good salary, which made the effort well worth it :)


Curriculum & LearningHaving some prior knowledge of Python and SQL, I found the initial content familiar, but the program quickly became more challenging and engaging. The bootcamp covered programming, data analysis techniques, machine learning, and data visualization. The fundamentals were well-structured, and I particularly appreciated the focus on data storytelling and presentation skills. The section on AI prompt engineering was an unexpected but highly practical addition. While I would have liked to see more coverage of industry-standard BI tools like Power BI and Tableau, the overall curriculum provided a strong foundation.
Practical Experience Hands-on projects, group work, and a machine learning competition made the learning process dynamic and enjoyable. The workload was demanding but manageable, ensuring steady progress and skill development.
Post-Bootcamp Outcome After completing the bootcamp, I continued learning daily and secured a Data Analyst role at Tink within three months. The program provided a solid base, but to successfully land a job, self-study is essential. It's important to dive deeper into topics that were only briefly covered and stay committed to continuous learning. If you stay persistent, keep improving your skills, and push forward until you find the right opportunity, success will follow.
Final Thoughts & Rating Although there were minor drawbacks, such as a slow first week and limited BI tool coverage, the bootcamp was a rewarding experience that set me on the right path. It helped me land a great job and significantly boosted my skills. Overall, a challenging but worthwhile journey! Read less

Back in 2022 I decided I wanted a change of career and decided to join Nod. I had no previous knowledge except some laughably basic python skills, but left Nod with a job as a Junior Data Analyst. You won't become a master in only 10 weeks, but Nod is the closest you can get to go from zero to hero in that short of an timespan. 
The dedication from the teachers is amazing, and it truly feels like they live and breathe Nod during the bootcamp 24/7, in the best possibly way. 
A regular day is usually a 9-5, split into different classes. After the classes are finished, most people stay behind and continue to learn and polish the projects they made during the day usually with the help of the teachers <----- This is some of the most valuable time spent at Nod, where you have the opportunity to hone in on specifics and make your projects stand out. 
During my time at Nod, we were 10~ students, which meant that you always could get assistance if needed, but also that we managed to create a very nice bond which resulted in quite a few late nights going out drinking.


All in all, Nod is probably the most efficient form of school I've ever participated in, but also some of the best return on investment I've ever made :) Read less

I approached Nod when I was in a dire need of a change in careers. With little coding experience beforehand I didn't really know what to expect, nor did I anticipate to be a fully autonomous coder after the experience. I am, however, pleased to tell you that not only did I become proficient in Python and SQL after the bootcamp, these skills directly contributed to the job position I currently have whilst writing this review.

Although 10 weeks of intensive coding seem like a lot, the instructors helps you every step of the way so you never feel overwhelmed. Not only that, the atmosphere is akin to studying with a friend group which is my favorite way of learning. The focus of the curriculum also progresses intuitively and at a good pace, starting with coding basics and ending with more advanced techniques within data analytics.

Taking this bootcamp was the best decision I could have made at the time and I will forever be grateful to Nod for giving me the tools needed to embark on the career path that I'm currently on. Read less

In general terms I can say that I feel like my money invested in education is finally reflected on the value. 

This bootcamp is amazing in many ways. You really work intensively everyday and learn different areas that englobe Data Science and the instructors are trying to implement new aspects to be uptodate, you have classes and right after you jump into solving different problems related to the class and that is where you learn. I also can say that I appreciate that the bootcamp has also invested on the human part of integrating the class and making sure there is social aspects added to it makes it even better.  Also, they have a strong focus on helping students into understanding the job market, improve our cv, LinkedIn and understand how that process works in real life.

I also strongly recommend if you have not had any previous coding experience that you merge a little before the course. It is a beginners courses so you will be fine but you will leverage more with a solid base of understanding- Read less

In all seriousness, this bootcamp is fantastic if you are looking for a full-on learning experience of everything required to perform the latest in data analytics. Personally I joined as a PhD student in Immunology to learn python, data management, visualization and machine learning - and all my expectations were met! I am now better equipped to handle complex computational data for visualization and analysis - and ultimately to answer important research questions using what I've learned in this bootcamp. In addition, I am confident that If I in the future ever would want to move into the field of bioinformatics or other related field in computational biology, I now posess the ability to do so!

NOD Bootcamp is a great place to learn and get actual programming experience in a short period of time. The concepts taught were followed by labs/ exercises to become more proficient as the time went by, followed by a project at the end of each topic, which was great to connect all the knowledge taught until that point. This approach makes sure you review concepts over and  over again enabling long-lasting knowledge acquisition.
The pace of the Bootcamp was intense but worth it to achieve and learn quite a lot in such a short period of time. Learning coding at NOD was by far more useful and rewarding than in past experiences. The best part is that throughout the Bootcamp we were able to deliver interesting  and real-world solutions. I can only recommend :) Read less

I had a great experience at the bootcamp. It's impressive that in just 10 weeks, I was able to create complex machine learning projects. The combination of theory, coding and projects, was an efficient and fast way for me to learn new concepts.

Be prepared for a high tempo, a lot of coding, and a lot of hard work, and after these 10 weeks you'll have what it takes to become a data analyst or scientist. But it's also very fun so the weeks just flies by. Read less

I really recommend this bootcamp. My experience overall was pretty good. I had not found too many bootcamps specialised on Data analytics and being on-site instead of a remote set-up helps greatly in my opinion.
I wanted a career change after my last job and I decided to try this one. I am not dissapointed. The skills that you will learn here are specific for this area (python, pandas SQL, etc) and the projects help you realise that you are gaining lots of knowledge quickly. It is very intense, so be prepared for that. You will be coding 9 to 6 every day, so be ready to be focused on this. The teachers are good and are there to help you, and after this is easier to choose the areas where you want to perhaps specialise a bit more or try to get a job. There is no job guaranteed or anything like that, but they will help you with cv etc. I recommend to have a basic basic knowledge of python, things go pretty fast! Read less

I attended the bootcamp in 2023 and was thrilled with what I learned. The bootcamp covers an extensive amount in a short span. With prior coding knowledge from academia, I found the first 2 weeks here more enlightening than what I've learned in 2 university courses. In 10 weeks, you're job-ready for the data industry, armed with solid knowledge and a robust GitHub portfolio. Read less

Best Coding Bootcamp on the planet!

Before applying for Nod Coding Bootcamp, I had exactly zero coding experience. I barely knew what it meant to be a coder/data analyst. Now I feel confident enough to go out in the job market and work with the skills I've acquired. They really teach you the most relevant things and set you up in the best possible way when job searching. They won't just teach you to code and manipulate data. They will teach you how to land a job in this field too. I had no CV and no LinkedIn before this, now I have both and they are decked out with projects I can showcase to recruiters!

I would personally really recommend this Bootcamp, the classroom space is awesome and the teachers are young and super fun guys to be around! I wasn't bored a single day. Although challenging at times, everything felt meaningful and very rewarding. The 10 weeks go by much faster than you think and it's actually crazy how much you learn in this time, almost unbelievable! I will miss all the group/team-building activities! Read less

An excellent 10-week bootcamp to rapidly get you started in the world of Data Analytics and Machine Learning. The teachers are very knowledgeable and supportive. The curriculum is well-structured to ensure sufficient coverage in breadth and depth.

I had a lot of fun learning and have enjoyed the entire experience.
Thanks to the Nod team, I've become an enthusiastic coder with a newfound love for Python and Data. Read less

I have had a great time during these 10 weeks, and can't believe how much I have learned. At times it has been mentally exhausting, but I have also dreamed about coding multiple times. 

The learning curve has been exponential, and during the final block of the bootcamp I feel prepared to work with the things I've learned full time. Read less

I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 because it's more believable — but it really was an amazing experience.
✓ They kept their promise. It's not a scam. They said they were going to make us autonomous coders by the end of the 10 weeks, and they did it, and I can put 'Data Scientist' on my LinkedIn headline even though I am still an apprentice
✓ The curriculum is relevant. The curriculum and course projects are geared towards developing a GitHub portfolio that proves you know what you're doing. It's also well structured, making sure the tasks are neither so easy you get bored nor so difficult that you get frustrated and want to quit.
✓ The instructors are friendly, yet professional. They've always gone out of their way to be helpful, make everybody feel they belong—and they know their stuff.
✓ Great classmates. Because they have a clever selection process that doesn't accept just anybody, you get to study with a small group of bright and motivated classmates with different professional backgrounds such as cancer researchers, genetecists, aeronautical engineers, and college gratudates.
✗ A few of the classes weren't as clear or well-organized as they could have been—and were kind of rushed—and I found myself having to go on YouTube a few times to really understand the concept. But I'm forgiving of it becauze they're still a new company, it takes years to master one's teacherscraft, and I see that they really do care and proactively take measures to improve upon the quality of each successive class.
✓ I did the math, and if I had tried to do this entire curriculum by myself, relying on online courses and self-discipline, being realistic, it would've taken me 4 additional months to get to the same level because I wouldn't have pushed myself as hard, and I would've gone down too many rabbit holes, wasting time learning things I didn't need to learn.

I took this bootcamp to improve my coding and data analytics skills and boost my current career in engineering. It is definitely a fast paced and demanding course (I started it thinking it would be nice and relaxing but no, it definitely put your brain to work intensely), but it was highly effective. I had virtually zero coding skills at the beginning, and by the end of the course we all had a very high understanding of the topics taught, got to build some very cool programs and machine learning models. 

The course also had a good focus on developing interpersonal skills, it massively improved my confidence, discipline, and presentation skills. 

Overall a great experience, also made some very good friends for life. If you find yourself googling for coding bootcamps and happen to come across this one, don't think it twice and do it Read less

I’ve had an amazing experience at Nod! Highly recommend this course to anyone who loves the in-person setting for learning!  
The course provided a very solid foundation for coding with python, data analytics, statistics and machine learning! The syllabus was well-designed with lots of time for hands-on practice. The teachers were extremely helpful whenever I was stuck during labs or working on projects. Even statistics was taught in a very fun and engaging way! 
I came into the course with pretty much zero coding experience, but after only 10 weeks I am leaving confident about my coding skills!

The program was well-structured, with a mix of lectures, hands-on coding exercises, and different projects. The projects were especially valuable, as they gave us the opportunity to work on real-world applications and cases.

One of the things I appreciated most about the boot camp was the emphasis on practical skills. We learned all skills to be a good data analytics. For example, SQL, pandas, seaborn, etc.

Overall, I would highly recommend this coding boot camp to anyone who is serious about pursuing a career in data analytics. It's an intensive 10-weeks program that requires a lot of dedication and hard work, but the payoff is well worth it. I came away from the program with a solid foundation in coding and the confidence to tackle more complex projects. Read less
