DataCamp

DataCamp is a low stress, self-paced collection of short courses. That allows the student to enter the study of programming at a level they feel comfortable with and from there branch out in any direction that they find compelling. I come back to the site daily in order to practice new and old skills, in order to keep on elevating my proficiency.

Data Camp is a online, per month for yearly service, that provides experiential education for R, Python, Stats, GitHub, IDEs, and shell commands for data science. On the down side, there is no professor to talk to or build a relationship with for recommendations and mentorship (yet.) On the positive side:

1) Data camp is cheap
2) Datacamp is used by EdX for some of their certification programs
3) Datacamp has a community of new users, power users, educators, and instructors who are willing to answer all sorts of questions. They even have a podcast that breaks down concepts to a very easy to comprehend level.
4) Real world data sets and projects to implement knowledge right away

In the year I have used Datacamp, I've taking classes in R, Python, and statistics. In a very sho...

I was given a one-month free trial to datacamp. Within that one month, I finished basic courses in data sciences - python and R. As I updated my LinkedIn with those skills, I was offered a data science consultant role in a major bank. I never imagined that my transition to data sciences would be that quick. I immediately took an annual membership with datacamp, and continuously update my skills in areas of machine learning, deep learning. Thanks, Datacamp!

I began with a one month subscription to determine whether my expectations would be met. And yes, DataCamp has been able able to exceedingly meet my expectations. I really love the courses and won't hesitate to recommend it to anyone interested in deepening their data science knowledge and skill-sets.

DataCamp mixes high-quality content created by some of the brightest stars of Data Science in R (not only academics and professionals from companies such as StackOverflow, but also the creators of some of the most widely used R packages) with a Gamified user experience (with the use of streaks, learning paths, daily tasks and the potential to achieve much, much more in this field) that helped me to keep myself motivated.

DataCamp provides students with an incremental, sequential and coherent learning pathway across the Data Science landscape.
Students are tired of Data Science programmes whose modules are taught as if the students were studying for degrees in Statistics, Maths and Computer Science.
DataCamps' modules however, contextualize the material in terms of what it means for Data Science. This is best exemplified by the DataCamp projects with draw
on and test the students knowledge across modules in terms of applied data sets and business questions. The ability to revisit and reinforce diverse material on their
own time is key for students to have a personalized learning experience. Also the DataCamp community forum is a great place for knowledge sharing.

I have started taking place Datacamp since Jan-2018, I feel that Datacamp provides the best way to start Data Science career.. learning R language, algorithms, statistical math and real business cases.

This website is really awesome. Very well done and comprehensible videos paired with challenging tasks to apply the knowledge that you gained. If you are interested in statistics I can highly recommend it!

I have tried many sites to learn to code along the years. This time I have really learn and I have stick to the site coming back every single day. The difference is that I can see what the applications of my learning are and not just some abstract learning without meaning. I have developed some tools in just a few weeks that allow me to create my own data projects on R and even create a quick website using Shiny. That never happened to me before with other sites.

At the time I have found very little impact of the areas of opportunity on my user experience. Yes, there are some. But the team is quick at answering back the emails and help out.

The interface is amazing. I did recommend this to my coworkers. They liked it too. U can get hands-on learning only in datacamp.

I had the privilege of exploring some of the DataCamp courses(R,Python) for my research in Data Engineering Science and was immediately awestruck with the content , learning direction and most importantly the simplicity. I'm duly thankful to DataCamp & their Team in bringing an equal opportunity service for all age-groups.

Here's a glimpse of what you're in treat for :
1.) Learning : Self-Driven courses covering Basic fundamentals to Advanced Skill development .
2.) Technology: Learn Programming languages that run on user-friendly distribution frameworks.
3.) Progress : Test your skill with the Daily Challenges , Projects after every course-module completion
4.) Appreciation : Course ,Skill and Career Tracks to build your Certified accomplishments.
5.) Interaction : Cont...

DataCamp provides a good start into the wide field of Data Science. They introduce all the important concepts, and technologies, you need to succeed. The courses are easy to grasp, and it is strongly recommended to deepen your new learned knowledge in the provided daily practice and project sections.

DataCamp was able to recruit several big names of the Data Science area for their courses. This gives this learning platform an additional weight and reputation. They are also well connected to professional social networking websites, making it easier for you to promote your new acquired skills.

DataCamp has been coming out with a ton of cool courses lately that I have really enjoyed. Also, they have practice content and projects which makes the material in courses more tangible.

The instructors are solid and really seem like experts. The courses are fairly quick paced but that works well with my learning style. 5 stars

Pros: 1. It has videos to explain a concept
2. Many concepts are included and explained that not all MOOCs provide
3. It offers certificates to make me motivated to complete the course
4. It offers courses in Phyton and R
5. It has a lot courses that can be choose from
6. Cheaper than many other MOOCs
7. It offers projects that you can work on after completing several courses
Cons: 1. I don't feel like I was challenged enough
2. Many exercises are too easy and only fill in the blanks
3. Easy forget the concept after finish the course
4. I feel I don't grasp or learn much after the end of the concept
Overall, It doesn't meet my expectations on a Data Science Course because I d...

Course was good but after i cancelled my membership they reactivated it 3 months later and charged me. I think they reactivate cancelled memberships as standard practice, easy for them if you used paypal.

I have been taking a good amount of data science classes online, and I wish I found DataCamp sooner. The videos give context to the interactive code, which helped me understand what I was doing as opposed to gaming the system like I did on other platforms. Overall, a great way to learn Python, directly from the experts that wrote the packages. Some of the accents can be difficult to understand but nothing insurmountable. I recommend!

I like the setup very much. Videos before assignments add some context to the work you're doing. I've done intro and intermediate Python, data science toolbox and importing data. It's already helped me automate some of my work.
