    Life Changing Experience !

    Where can I begin ?? This has been such an incredible and life changing experience that I am so glad I went ahead and gave it a shot ! My instructor and TA were both so informative and amazing they helped through it all. The course itself was fun for me, but it was no walk in the park either, especially if you work full time and have a family. But I can honestly say it was all worth it, as a matter of fact I will miss it ! I have learned so much from this course and I'm super excited to ...

    Very informative and inspiring

    I wasn't satisfied with the basic 4 year degree path and wanted a fast track to gain the necessary knowledge so i'd know i can go back to college at any time and have a significant upper hand on everyone. This boot camp helped me a lot to gain the confidence and extra help with all the assets they offer.

    Vigorous, enlightening, Challenging

    This class was very difficult and fast paced. It was a amazing course. I learned the basics of a ton of different programs, learned how to find the answers with some research, learned how to continue coding and finding jobs after the course ends, Met amazing people, and learned different paths i could take with this knowledge.

    Cyber Security

    This class was amazing, and got me through a boundary I never thought I could, or had to grow up wealthy or lucky to achieve. I'm extremely greatful to Ms. Bury, Mr. Garrick, and Mr. Hamilton for all they have done, as well as my fellow students, and the support I have at foster care. This is a milestone that I think well lead me to do great things with my life so that I may do the same for others as well.

    My experience with the Digital Marketing Boot Camp so far!

    When I first entertained the idea of taking on another responsibility in my life, I was overwhelmed with the what-if's the notion created in my head. I am now half way through the Rice University Boot Camp on Digital Marketing, and I am now filled with a whole new set of what-if's? What if I CAN get my dream job? What if it IS possible to work when and how I want? What if I DO have the skills it takes to work for myself and create my career the way I want? I have learned so much so far a...

    Data Analytics and Visualization

    Coming from a non-coding background, initially this bootcamp was initimidating and overwhelming. The first weeks were the toughest, but our Instructor 'James Casanelli' was great at breaking down the problem into pieces and explaining it really well. We also had a very helpful and enthusiastic TA 'Justin' who would go way beyond to help us out in our projects and regular assignments. Completing this course was a big achievement as you learn a lot in very little time. I recommend putting ...
