Full Transcript

the thing with data science dojo is that my one my coworker attended data science dojo last year and he had a really good review of the course what I really wanted out of a course was to try to understand what other people in the industry was doing with you know are doing with data science yeah i think this boot camp is set up in a way where anybody can come in and learn something you're going you're going to get something out of it you guys try to educate us and prep us ahead of time so by the time we get in we can just just start rolling I think this experience is it's more interactive just because of that it it's a lot better when I was taking the Coursera course I even though the videos were often very good and the materials were really good they're just there just wasn't that connection and so it was hard to understand this course kind of brought it all together for me from all the different things I've picked up along the way it just kind of glued it together and so I so far it's been a great experience
