What Boot Camp Graduates Are Saying

  • “I chose to attend the boot camp because I knew I wanted to get into digital marketing, but I needed the skill set and … a portfolio. … If I hadn’t taken the class, I don’t believe I would have been able to be where I am today. I am now able to make more money and work the hours that bring in that money while giving me flexibility in my personal life. … The program itself was tough, especially navigating it with the pandemic, but we did it together and we all did it well.”

    Andrew K.
  • “… This boot camp has opened my eyes to all of the opportunities where I can use data to drive marketing. I want to use natural language processing as a way to monitor and report on [my] company’s product reviews as well as competitors. I want to study the key metrics that could predict a buying decision. … Learning how to code in Python, Java and other tools has really increased my confidence.”

    Lesley K.
  • “Career Services has organized my portfolio and resume materials and has that … process down to a precise science. So I really appreciate that! Obviously, it has influenced my job prospects so it has helped acquire the job I have currently, and therefore has affected my life greatly.”
