TripleTen

It's a lot of educational recourses out there, but I think I'll stick to Yandex. Really impressed with the content quality and our professors' way of teaching. I feel like I'm always ready to jump in for some extra coding hours, and trust me, I usually get bored pretty fast. Practicum for me has been like a blueprint for my web-development success. It requires that you follow along and work hard, but the rewards are totally worth it!

I've been hired as a junior front-end developer by a company in Moscow; it happened three weeks ago. I'm learning tons of stuff at work: Vue.js, Webpack. My hours are 10 to 7, but even after hours, I've got plenty to learn.
Practicum has really set me up well for front-end work. I'm pretty much a full-fledged programmer at work already. JS could use some work though, :)) ) but BEM that we did in the first couple months has been really helpful. All in all, I've got some real working knowledge from Practicum.

"he free introductory part of the course was really insightful. Coming from knowing almost nothing about statistics and experimental design, I was glad that the theory was easy to understand while not feeling shallow. Just the right amount of information density and a lot of mentor support with practical assignments. The intro was good in setting all the necessary software for future steps. It inspired me so much I decided to dive into the full course.

And then... 8 months of math, statistics, analytics, algebra, theory of probability, finance, economics plus all kinds of computational tools. Oh, wait, add some management, social relations, advertising, psychology plus the rest of the social sciences. Not to forget about constant working on hands-on study projects! Needless to say, the course ended up being very challenging for me. Luckily, the mentors' attention seemed almost undivided: it felt like there were not many learners in the class. However, for the same reason, not many people seemed to interact on Slack, especially during the last three months.

To recap, the course was challenging, but I highly recommend it.

A little over a month ago, I graduated from the Quality Assurance course at TripleTen. Since then, I've started my job search, but so far I haven't had any luck. I've received several emails declining my application, saying they're moving forward with other candidates, but not a single phone call for an interview. So far, I haven't found the tools provided by TripleTen to be useful—these are things I can do on my own. I applied to the Externship program a while ago, and the response was that there's a waiting list and I just have to keep waiting. I don't know for how long, or where I stand on that list, so I have no idea of my position.
I feel frustrated because most job postings require experience that I don't have, and there's no one to help me with that. For the Money-Back Guarantee program, I'm required to attend meetings that are supposed to help me find a job, but the information can easily be found on the internet. All it does is waste time without offering real alternatives like networking opportunities or connections to companies that are hiring. We're expected to do everything on our own

I'll lay their racquet out simply: - Get bodies in by promising job placement - Get money from their funding partners for which the bodies are liable for This is where the games begin - At the end of each course, push bodies to give good reviews (I was one of them) - Assign "mentors" to bodies who'd finished courses. Their real job is to simply monitor if you're staying on track with inconveniently timed tasks and meetings to see if they fail to meet the Money Back Guarantee stipulations (the idea here is for that to not happen) - Leave bodies in limbo, offering nothing more than a subpar job board and predatory externships that pay in feedback while retaining all intellectual property of the bodies. - Rinse bodies from the program, left with debt as they collect their money and do it all again. - There is no true job placement. - They have no connections to worthwhile companies
- The jobs they DO offer are internal. - This isn't much more than a pyramid scheme praying on the tech boom. Avoid it at all costs

Triple Ten is a scam. Don't fall for it. I enrolled in their QA course, and I can confidently say that this school will just take your money—nothing more. All the 4 and 5-star reviews are paid for. I'm giving you an honest review: don't waste your money and time.

This is the best self-learning project I've ever come across. Practicum by Yandex is an opportunity for growth and learning, with practical knowledge pure and undiluted by the dry, sleep-inducing webinars you get with other platforms. It's a mainstay for anyone beginning their journey toward work as a web developer. It can be a challenging road, one traveled with trepidation and in fear of making a false step, though now there's the safety net that is Practicum by Yandex

The best part of this platform, I think, is the personally reviewed projects. The regular tasks in an online learning platform (which Practicum has as well) just teach you to write lines of code, and aren't unique in any platform. Projects, however, provide an exceptional opportunity for the devoted student to explore new, external libraries and improve their skills, and the feedback given enhances the process even more. Try it out :)

It's already 5 months since I started to learn Data Analysis with Yandex Practicum. My main motivation was to learn to code in Python and improve my technical skills. The Practicum helps a lot.

It was extremely hard in the beginning. But I never thought about giving the course up. As time goes it's getting easier to code and to analyze different types of data. I especially like the project part.

And I love my co-students because they ask a lot of questions in the forum and their questions help to solve the exercises and work on projects.

I wanted to start my career into Data science field but don't know which one to prefer, later on I joined Yandex. Practicum, course material is more practical than theory and every sprint I need to do projects which are very useful in real life, reviewer reviews my codes if any issue in the project they gave me feedback where I went wrong, I am able to write codes more clearly and course material is very good according to industry requirement

After finishing a full-stack web development boot-camp, I felt lost and was definitely not ready for a job in the web development world. Since then, I knew that boot camps were not meant for me, but then I was going through Facebook and saw this ad for being a beta test for this new course that Practicum had, that one being a web development course. In my mind, I was skeptical. I already knew how boot-camps worked and how all they care about most of the time is to make money without caring whether the students learn or not, but I decided to give it a try; after all, it couldn't hurt, and I was a beta test. I've decided to enroll and did the introductory week and learned more in 2 weeks than I did in 2 months in my other boot-camp. Ever since I started, it has been quite a ride, with impressive and up to date materials. You're not just reading and asked to do something that you have no idea how to do, you get to practice all that you've learned, and then you get a task. The other great thing is that while you are learning, you are also learning Agile methodology, which is used for most companies out there. Now the tasks can be difficult and challenging at time, but you have a fantastic community and a tutor that is always willing to answer your questions. Reviews are the same way, they can seem as they are too picky at times, but in reality, they are trying to review your code as an actual company would. Thanks to Practicum, I could definitely say I am way better developer than I was when I came out of my other boot-camp and thanks to them, I now feel like confident enough to enter the field

As a Ph. D. student I started to study data science in Practicum, which is really amazing. The team and mentors are great and I see advancing. My intent is advancing much more and I advice this experience to any one who is serious and has intent to study data science.

The support team helps you when you need, community managers helps and here for you anytime when you feel stuck and your reviewers and mentors helps you to figure out problems.

Also the study is based on theoratical and practical structure. I feel I'm learning theoretical background while learning applicable data science.

My other focus is studying data science in Y-Data School.

Thanks Practicum team.

I was part of the Data Scientist track,

The content is really great. Your all questions will be answered within a few hours by instructors in the slack channels. I have never seen such a kind of community support in any earlier online course. I am a Computer Vision nano degree Graduate from Udacity. Practicum is better in terms of helps we get in slack than Udacity.

Every big module has a project which is reviewed by experienced professionals, The review you get really helps to learn better. It was really helpful to me. All the projects and modules need to be completed within the timeline which helps you to make daily learning habits. It has more than 15 projects for Data Scientists track which is the best part.

Online biweekly webinars are learning with fun, The instructor was a former data scientist. He always shares tips and tricks from his experience.

This Bootcamp was a complete package that you don't want to miss, one of the best learning experience.

It was an easy choice to enroll the Data Analytics course at Practicum by Yandex. As a tech recruiter, I knew about their(Yandex) success in Russia and how professional the analysts working there are. I expected that it would be hard work, lots of math and fun. I am not disappointed:)
Provide you some facts and numbers.
- The course consists of 14 sections (2-weeks sprints). Most of them have the theory section (materials and exercises) and the project. Other ones are just big integrating projects.
- There is a free part of the course named Python and Data Analysis Basics. You supposed to complete it for 20 hours, but I think it's possible only if you already have some experience with Python and/or analytics. From me, it took about 3 weeks with approx. 2 hours a day.
- You must keep the deadlines. They might be soft for a few sprints, but once in a few weeks, they are rigid. You had better not spend more than 4-5 days on theory and 10-14 days on projects. Otherwise, you will need to take an academic leave.

Overall I highly recommend this course for all those who have enough motivation and time(!) to change a career path and become a data analyst.

Attached a photo with the completed sprints.

I'd like to say a big thank you to the Practicum by Yandex team of developers: it's such a great product that's worth every cent. When I started the course I had no experience in ITI didn't even study anything to do with IT, but that wasn't an issue with Practicum by Yandex. Aside from the theory sections, I got tons of practice in each chapter, and there were gobs of lectures and webinars to help with any issues or mistakes along the way. I can't say it was easy, as I had to make a real effort, and of course I wanted to do the training. But if I didn't understand something, there were mentors, instructors, and a support team just one text away, keeping an eye on my progressso a special thank you to them!

The Data Analyst bootcamp from Yandex By Practicum (a leading tech company) has provided me with the skills and analytical thinking necessary to work as a junior data analyst. A course at Practicum is not just another Udacity or Dataquest related program, it's much more. The platform provides an innovative bi-weekly sprint-like teaching approach (per course), insightful webinars (which can be tailored to student needs!), and the challenging and self-directed projects that are reviewed by professionals in the relevant field among other features.

Of special importance for me, has been the projects. These are very challenging projects that revolve around answering various business questions in a variety of fields. Whenever I work on these projects, I feel like I'm on the job! What's more, these projects get more complex throughout the program but there's always support and guidance from mentors if needed. This has been my highlight of the program as I'm confident now in my coding but more importantly, analytical thinking skills. You really can't go wrong by choosing this program!

I studied music professionally for 15 years, after which I moved on to agriculture. But that was only until I realized a year ago that I could become a software engineer! I spent almost a year studying on my own, although that didn't really work without a solid program. You spend all your time trying to stay motivated, and you wonder how practical what you're learning really is, and none of that helps you keep going. I couldn't wait for Yandex to come out with a course that worked for meI wanted something from a big developer. It turned out to be a challenge, but a fascinating one! Thanks to all the help I got from my mentor and coursemates, I'm ready to take on anything. You can expect quite a bit of work that will pay off with a range of practical knowledge, a sea of memories, and new paths for expansion. I discovered a new world full of opportunity, and thanks to Yandex, I know nothing I learn is superfluous or out of date. The skills I have will translate directly to the market. It's worth a shot if you want a quality education and a huge leap forward in your life journey.

I just started my third month in the web development program. Wanted to leave a review because there weren't many out there before I decided to sign up.

The good:
• The introductory course was a good way to discover that their teaching style is a good fit for me.
• I have learned a LOT in a short time. The large projects and strict deadlines keep me learning at a much faster pace than I ever would studying on my own.
• Having the main tutor, community manager, student tutors, and fellow classmates available. They're there if I have questions, need help, need to vent, etc.
• It is an incredible value. It's almost a year's worth of coding education for only $1000. Even when things aren't perfect, I can't really complain since I've saved so much money by going here instead of other (pricier) boot camps. And I feel like I'm receiving a very quality education for that price.

Could be better:
• Maybe it's because I'm older and not as quick as I used to be. But I spend a LOT more time on this course than I expected to. It's been the equivalent of a full-time job for me. They say 10 hours a week minimum. But I don't know how realistic that is depending on your experience level starting out.
• Sometimes there is a language barrier. The way things are worded on the learning platform can be difficult to understand. We also have live coding events and it can be difficult for me to understand what the programmer is saying.
• The learning platform can be frustrating. If you don't answer the question the exact way to the computer is expecting you to, then you can't continue. And if nobody is around on the slack channel to help you, then you can be stuck there for a long time. Which is not only a time waste, but also prevents you from being able to access your project and start working on it.
• This isn't really a negative thing. But they have a lot of faith in us lol. The projects we do every two weeks are not simple. It's not rare to feel unprepared and overwhelmed every time we see the instructions. It usually feels impossible at first. And the code reviewers are very strict about what they'll accept. Yet somehow, I keep managing to stick with it and complete everything.

Hope this is helpful to someone out there.
