Nod Coding Bootcamp

I've had a great experience for the past 10 weeks at Nod Coding bootcamp. I started with very limited experience of coding, this is definitely beginner friendly, and now at the end of the bootcamp, I feel very confident to code and work with large dataset.... Read More The course covered varies topics, e.g., Python, SQL, web scraping, Machine learning, Data visualisation, Statistics and many more. The theoretical lessons and practical parts are so well organised, balanced, though very intensive and challenge. Instructors and assistant teachers are so knowledgable, friendly and helpful. Highly recommended if you want to get started in data science/analytics.

I found and joined Nod the same day the course was starting, so it felt very overwhelming to begin with. It has been an intense experience-both challenging and fun. Its a lot of information input but allow yourself to stick it out and grind and by the... Read More end, you'll definitely start feeling like an autonomous coder as advertised on Nod's website. Joining the bootcamp was the best decision I made, even without ever having written a line of code and with more experienced peers in the class. The student to teacher ratio ( 8:3) ensures that you have constant help, if required, from amazingly supportive teachers. I have learnt so much these past 10 weeks and feel super confident going into the job market.

This is an intense bootcamp, 9-18 each day, 2 breaks and 1 hours lunch. The rest of the time is spent coding or listening to lectures. But it's oh so worth it, I went from not knowing any Python, by week 2 we wrote a game, and by the end of the camp,... Read More I am able to write my own Supervised machine learning project.

As a biomedical bench scientist, I was always dependant on bioinformaticians or other people with coding skills to analyze my own data for me. After this 10-weeks bootcamp, I became an autonomous coder in python, which not only makes my data analysis... Read More independent from others, but also opens up so many possibilities to move my research into new directions. Attending the bootcamp was an amazing experience and I enjoyed every minute of it. As we are allowed to choose the topic for our own mini-projects, I was able to directly apply my new skills to my actual field of work.

You will learn a lot of skills that are useful right now in the field of data analytics. Programming in Python, SQL and Machine learning are the main skills acquired but they also help you with your resume and LinkedIn profile to help you get noticed... Read More more if you still want to pursue this career path. You will spend more than 40 hrs. per week learning as you will most often need to work on things at home so be sure you have the time and no other commitments as this will take most of your time.

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!
