| | Kelvin Lui | The best part of this intensive course is the deepdive and discussion like approach to the fundamentals of Machine Learning. Accuracy of models dominates the purpose of any model, in a general sense, however this course allows for the greater picture to come into view. As they say, with great power comes great responsibility and Data Science holds great power. |
| | Hajar | The whole experience has been very enlightening.The concepts were explained thoroughly without the hardcore jargon.Data Science Dojo sets a strong foundation for each of its attendees ,paving way for me to explore my own path in data science further.Thank you Rebecca and Raja for the awesome opportunity and I hope to be relaying good news in the months to come!! |
| | Jerry Chee | The bootcamp was led by the CEO himself, who attacks the topic from very practical angles.
In comparison with Coursera, DataCamp or other in-person experiences I’ve had so far on programming/data science, I definitely felt like Raja managed to, not just select, but engage us in the most important concepts on both Data Science and Data Engineering (trust me, I’ve spent hours googling about these topics and speaking to a variety of ‘techies’, but just couldn’t get that ‘full picture’ view of how it all comes together).
The course is very well structured, laying out ground concepts first for every topic and then useful practicum. The instructors are adamant that the thinking process is the most crucial element and I fully agree. Healthy debate is encouraged and the instructors are able to tie it all together by sharing practical experiences they've had. If you've ever been taught by practising adjunct professors in school, versus those who have been in academia all their life, you'll know the difference - especially when you only have 5 days to spare to immerse yourself in a new topic.
I would strongly recommend going for DSDojo's bootcamp if you can spare the full 5 days if you're-
1)An analyst already working with data analysis and want to do more
2)Manager who wants to cut thru' the buzzwords and know what's relevant for your business today
3)Data science enthusiast who's implemented some models before but know that you need your work to be more polished
I would also recommend that you don't go in 'cold'. You should finish the pre-course videos and exercises in order to extract the most of the 5-days. Don't be lazy! |
| | Zainab Al Lawati | It was the best training I've ever attended. The 5 days were packed with knowledge, great discussion, and hands-on experience.
The learnings were also solidified by the additional exercises provided for practice.
Despite the intensity, it was easy to follow and never boring :D
The bootcamp also offers additional webinars and video tutorials covering more topics.
The instructors: Raja and Rebecca did amazing job in teaching and making sure we understand the core concepts regardless of the tools used. They encouraged and emphasised on the importance of having a decent thinking process.
This was the most valuable outcome for me, as it is easy to find tutorials online on the "how-tos", but understanding the full picture and the reasonings is challenging.
Overall, attending this bootcamp was one of the greatest decisions I made. |
