5/5

Nhat Tran, Tech Lead, Beamdata

I am reviewing for the two courses I graduated from: Data science with Python and the Data Engineering Bootcamp. This is the best data and AI school available based on my assessment: can you get a job after completing the program? My answer is yes as I have personally found work each time I enrolled in one of their programs – I enrolled in data science and data engineering bootcamps. Importantly, I came for the knowledge, but stayed for the community.

Pros

  • Teaches you all the relevant topics and skills needed to get the job done in real world
  • Projects, assignments and exercises to help you build up the muscle memory
  • Extremely supportive team helping you land a job

Cons

  • The course and the bootcamp is intense and you will have to provide the focus, effort and time commitment
  • It will feel overwhelming but it’s worth it in the end

What our graduates are saying

5/5

Shelley Geng, Senior Analyst

Excellent experience in Weclouddata! The courses are well-organized and keeping up with the ever-evolving data science trend. Each lecture covers a specific DS topic and theory, followed by a real coding demo session, which is really valuable for a data course. Plus, the assignment for each lecture is fully leveraging what has already been learned and requires students’ efforts to dig deeper — I only wish I would have more time after work to go over all of them.

5/5

Sinthushan Sooriyakumar, Data Analyst

I started this course without formal programming or statistic/math background. I really enjoyed the top-down approach used by the Instructor, not only does it keep you interested when learning the libraries and syntax, it also drives you to peruse more self-learning. The instructor along with the TA was very approachable and encouraging. I enjoyed showing them where I was in regards to the class projects and getting feedback on what I could try next. The live coding made the class engaging and not only helped show the process that a developer might take when solving a problem. This class was a great experience and I would definitely recommend it to not only those seeking careers in data science but for those who just want a general taste in programming as well.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about the bootcamp
Yes. We don’t teach python from scratch in this course. So learners will need to know python before attending this course. We highly recommend the Data Fundamentals course as a starter.
The Python for Data Science course is very hands-on by design. Learners will start to work on a capstone project starting from the 2nd week. There’re lots of exercises that will keep learners busy. The lectures are also taught in a hands-on fashion. Learners will follow instructors and TAs to complete labs.
Yes, you will have the right skills to apply for data analytics jobs and junior data science jobs. When the job market is very competitive, you will definitely need to learn more in order to stay competitive. But this course will teach you the right data science skills to get started. Other courses we would recommend include machine learning course and big data course.
The data science course teaches you very relevant job skills. A data scientist usually work on data extraction using SQL or Python, data visualization using Python, exploratory data analysis (EDA) using Python, and predictive analytics using machine learning. This course teaches learners how to use Python and the Pandas library to scrape, extract, prepare, visualize, and analyze data. It covers the basics of predictive analytics at the end as well. So in short, you will learn data skills and tools that are highly in demand. However, if you would like to become specialized in machine learning, we would recommend you take the Applied Machine Learning course as well.
For the portfolio project, learners will learn how to define the use case and build a data analysis strategy first. Then you will develop Python scripts to collect data via web scraping or web APIs, define data models and load data into databases. After data has been created, learners will learn how to use Python and SQL to clean and analyze data, prepare data for analytics and insights. At the end of the project, learners will present their projects along with the insights to experienced data science experts and get feedback.
Yes. This is the key differentiator of WeCloudData’s data science course. We not only teach students tools, but also introduce lots of industry use cases. In fact, we also use some real-life industry datasets for teaching and students will learn how to APPLY data science skills in various business contexts.
You can communicate with the instructors and teaching assistants (TA’s) regularly through our online platform and communication app (Slack). We host live lab sessions and office hours. On-demand 1-1 support is also available.
The live lectures are all recorded so you will be able to watch them and catch up in case you miss a class. You can also join the office hours to ask questions about the missed lessons.
Yes. We offer scholarships, flexible payment plans, and student loans via 3rd party lenders. Please fill out the form on the course page to get in touch with our learning advisors.
Some students have their employers cover the tuition. You can always ask your employers about it. We’re happy to provide the curriculum and enrolment letter.
