    A Practical and Supportive Data Science Bootcamp

    I had a very positive experience at WBS Coding School. The bootcamp is well structured, hands-on, and focused on real-world data science and machine learning applications. The instructors are knowledgeable and supportive, and the project-based learning helped me build strong practical skills and confidence. Highly recommended for anyone looking to transition into AI and data-driven roles.

    Ich war sehr zufrieden

    Extrem professionelles Team und mit Spaß an der Sache. Der Kurs AI for Business ist für mich klar eine Weiterempfehlung! Vor dem Einstieg hatte ich so ein bisschen Ahnung von Prompting, aber eben nicht mehr. Jetzt, nach Abschluss kann ich klar sagen, dass ich KI sehr gut Einschätzen kann, weiß worauf ich achten muss und in alle Richtungen mindestens ein bisschen bedienen kann. Automatisierung, Bild-, Video- Website-Erstellung, Projektmanagment und Hintergrundwissen ist mehr als vorhanden...

    The bootcamp was intense but always felt supported! 
    For super new comers to the topic programming, I would recommend getting yourself family with the languages before hand. Time flies during the BootCamp.

    If you get in contact with the company they really take time for you and don‘t rush at all when e-mailing and in videocalls.

    The camp is very well structured and I was impressed by the learning materials and how well they are being used and maintained.

    We had a well attuned team of instructors. Yanish and Lisardo clearly have a lot of fun in their jobs and together teaching classes. They were always approachable for personal help and happy to do so.

     The Data Science Bootcamp was an awesome experience, a good segway into a new career! You do have to apply yourself, though. It is not easy, especially if you don't come from an IT background.

    Average Coding School

    I started the bootcamp for full stack web development with a great expectation as someone who has zero coding background. However, at the end we ended up with instructors which are quite incapable of teaching. We also reached out to the management, but nothing changed. I don't think this bootcamp is suitable for people, who doesn't possess any coding knowledge. Otherwise, you might be disappointed or burned out.

    Bad experience, very basic knowledge

    I completed a Marketing Analytics course in April, but unfortunately, my experience was far from satisfactory. I really don’t understand the positive reviews I read here.

    The course content was extremely superficial, lacking any in-depth exploration of the subject matter. I enrolled with high expectations and a desire to learn extensively, but the actual instruction time was disappointingly brief—often just 45 minutes to an hour. After that, we were left to complete simple t...

    Head of Student Experience

    Dear Customer,
    Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We truly value your input and we're sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations. We strive to ensure every student feels supported and empowered.
    As we are unable to verify details without a name on the review, we would love the opportunity to discuss your concerns further and see how we can make things right. We invite you to contact Janina Fisser, our Head of Students Experience at janina.fisser@wbscodingschool.com. Until then, however, we would like to address the important points you mentioned here. 
    In terms of educational content, our bootcamp employs various methodologies to cater to different learning styles, including live lectures, demos, exercises, and projects. We occasionally incorporate high-quality external resources, such as YouTube tutorials and LinkedIn Learning courses, to complement our curriculum. While these constitute a small part of the learning material (less than 15%), they are vital for ongoing self-study and adaptation to new challenges post-bootcamp. We acknowledge that some of our modules may serve as refreshers for students with prior experience in the field, and we encourage those students to take the initiative to delve deeper into project tasks, making use of our instructors’ guidance to explore new angles and ideas.
    Regarding the content of our Career Days, it's important to note that these events are designed to cover general career-related topics such as CV building, networking through LinkedIn, and mastering interview techniques. They are intended to complement the specific bootcamp content. Since we believe strongly in the power of community learning, we bring the students from the various bootcamps together on Career days. This diversity fosters a rich learning environment where students can inspire and learn from each other across different backgrounds and experiences. We've found this approach beneficial for broadening perspectives and enhancing the learning experience.
    Our Career Services team provides tailored support including CV checks, LinkedIn profile reviews, and personalized consultations. We also offer extended support beyond the bootcamp, with 1:1 consultations and it is true that the offer is available up to one month after graduation. But this is communicated in advance and in practice, our dedicated Career Services team often goes above and beyond, assisting students beyond this timeframe to ensure they are equipped for their job search. Additionally, our alumni continue to be a valued part of our community, with lifelong access to our Learning Management System (LMS) and various communication channels. 
    At WBS CODING SCHOOL, we are committed to ensuring every student receives the best possible experience. We take your comments seriously and would appreciate the opportunity to understand more about your experience so we can make necessary improvements. If you’re willing, please contact us at your earliest convenience.
    Kind regards,
    Your WBS CODING SCHOOL Team

    The course are well managed, very well structured. Teachers are great, and follow you up day to day ! I never code before the bootcamp and now I can do Deep learning, it's incredible. Might be tough sometimes, because it's a bootcamp but the teachers and the school take the time to listen to you if you are lost.

    I believe a significant number of reviews are left by students who have just completed the course and are still riding the wave of enthusiasm. Initially, I was informed that upon finishing the course, one could opt for any data career path and that the employment rate stood at 90%, among other claims. However, my perspective shifted considerably a few months later when I confronted the reality.

    Tough but worth it!

    You get a lot of material to learn and since it's an intensive course it's sometimes hard to keep up, but since there is no grading process the pressure is bearable and in group projects you can learn a lot with your colleagues and from each other.

    Personally, I was lucky to be part of a particularly warm and helpful group, and probably taught by the best two leaders Reagan and Lilian. <3

    Challenging but are rewarding

    I think it’s a great way to break into tech or solidify pre existing web dev knowledge. Coming with zero coding experience, it will be really challenging and you’ll probably need some more months after the boot camp to practice (in order to find a job in the field). However, if you have already studied Web Dev for a while and have been looking for a way to practice and deepen your understanding to be ready to apply for jobs (my personal situation), I can also recommend this Bootcamp!
