Nod Coding Bootcamp

I found NOD shortly after moving to Sweden from Asia, where I'd just completed my secondary education. My goal of attending the Bootcamp was to broaden my skill set and become better equipped and prepared for my university studies, although I'd never... Read More written a single line of code before that point in my life. I'm happy to say that NOD has surpassed my expectations, allowing me to become highly proficient in a plethora of programming skills, such as SQL, Python, Seaborn, and Machine learning, just to name a few. In my opinion, what makes NOD so special and unique is the passion of the instructors and the effective student/teacher ratio (0.5 teachers per student!). I was able to have consistent 1 on 1 sessions with the instructors, who would explain the concepts with patience and passion. Overall, highly recommend it. Great teaching, great value, great atmosphere.

Great way to spend 10 weeks. I've learned so much, going from a complete noob to someone who can confidently say they know python, pandas, SQL and some machine learning! Course tackles a big load of topics but puts them into manageable chunks, so you... Read More rarely feel overwhelmed. Great labs and challenges that allow you to practice what you just learned in a theory session, as well as several individual projects to let you try your own spin on things. Highly recommend!

The teachers in the Nod Coding Bootcamp are very nice and excellent. Three teachers took care of eight students. Whenever I had a question I got immediate help from a teacher. It is also very nice to talk to other students in the Bootcamp because we exchange... Read More the experience of learning coding, hunting jobs and working experience. The Bootcamp not only deepened my knowledge and skill of data science but also broadened my experience because of my nice classmates.

You will get practical skills in programming Python and the learning curve in terms of hours of coding 5 days a week is a suitable commitment if you don't want to put your entire life on hold, but still want to develope more than from online programs... Read More from home. It's up to you how much effort you put in. 10 weeks is really not that much time put into perspective, but you will get a cutting-edge crashcourse of Python once it's over

I found Nod during my move to Stockholm from the US, after I decided to use the move as an opportunity to make a career shift from digital marketing into data analytics using Python and SQL. My goal was to land a new job in Stockholm where I could continue... Read More advancing this new analytics coding skillset, but also work in digital marketing. I also didn’t want to have a long unemployment gap, so my plan was to get hired as quickly as possible after the bootcamp. As I write this review, we’re in our last week of the bootcamp and I’m happy to say that I landed my dream job 4 weeks ago! Just by sharing Nod’s curriculum and what I’d learned to that point, my employer (and other prospective employers) had no concerns about the skillset I’d gain. Gustav, Axel and Nils were also super helpful in talking about Stockholm’s business and recruiting climate, as well as what I was looking for in my specific digital marketing expertise area. If you’re really good at self-education, then maybe taking an online class is okay for you. However, if you’re like me and can never follow-through with online learning to the end; then Nod is for you. There is really something about a hands-on and high teacher-to-student ratio when learning how to both code and understand advanced statistics. And you don’t have to worry about your prior experience in coding or mathematics, because they will cover everything for you. You’ll leave with a solid foundation in Python and its libraries, a legitimate portfolio, and a local Stockholm network in the field. I wish I could do it again!

Nod Bootcamp provides an excellent 10 weeks long educational program in Data Analysis. With a well-balanced mix of theory and application the bootcamp offers great opportunity to learn an incredible amount of theory, tools and techniques within a very... Read More short time frame. This bootcamp helped me adopt an analytic mindset and greatly improved my ability to independently and in a structured way conduct scientific inquiry well beyond my previous capacity. I would recommend this bootcamp to anyone who is interested in data analytics, regardless of any prior experience.

The bootcamp was both a very intense and informative experience. The instructors are young founders and it is quite clear are very passionate about the program. The program is made up of three blocks which lead from Python to Data Analytics to Machine... Read More learning in a very structured way. The incubator environment really helped me develop my coding abilities in both code alongs and labs where we practised. A huge shoutout to one of the main instructors, Nils, who patiently helped me 1-1 on many occasions in understanding some of more difficult aspects of both the statistics blocks as well as the machine learning. I really recommend them for their passion, up to date material and the incredible amount that is taught over a period of 10 weeks.

This bootcamp is challenging, intense and info-packed but also very rewarding! As I have had friends attending the bootcamp before me, I had high expectations beforehand - all of these were exceeded due to the curriculum being up to date and very balanced.... Read More I especially liked the combination of codealongs, labs and projects that challenged the concepts introduced in various ways. I had no prior knowledge in coding before attending the bootcamp, however, after these ten weeks I'm ready to apply for a job as a Data Analyst. During the bootcamp I worked part-time (30%), using mornings, lunches and evenings for meetings, however, this is not something I recommend if you want the full experience and learnings from the bootcamp.

After attending this bootcamp I can confidently say that I am an autonomous coder. The curriculum of the bootcamp is highly relevant with regards to what is expected from a data analyst today. The course has a great mix of codealongs, lectures, labs and... Read More projects where you as a student get the chance to put your skills to the test. The teachers are very supportive and always there to help when getting stuck. I would highly recommend attending this bootcamp if you are looking for a career within data analytics.

Even with prior experience, I learned a lot during this course and feel much better prepared to tackle future data analysis problems. The organizers are actively developing the course material and already at this early stage of Nod the value offered is... Read More hard to beat.
