IN4.0 Group Opiniões 

Well organised, great instructor(s), very well put together and relevant course materials.

My experience with the bootcamp was extremely rewarding. The bootcamp was an intense fast-paced environment that equipped me with the knowledge and hands-on experience I needed to grow as a developer.

Great course for development in software, AI and programming.

This course has given me a solid foundation in Software Engineering and I can't thank everyone enough at Skills City and IN4 group. The technical training, careers sessions, project work and personal development sessions have all been engaging, fun and really enjoyable to attend. The fact I started out with zero coding experience to now being confident in creating a website and building a text based adventure game is a testament to how effective the training is. Thank you again.

Amazing experience

Firstly I would like to thank the entire team at the boot camp for their extended support. It has been a breezy couple of months with lots of learning, project work, HR assistance right from assisting with our CV to counseling on how to prepare for interviews. In short this is one of the wow kind of an experience which can't be explained in any different ways. The only flip side of the boot camp is it offers loads of study topics and its absolutely on the onus of oneself to keep learning even after the camp to excel and master the course that they are after.

Thanks to every one @Mo sir for your inspirational pep talks, @Mariam for HR insights, @Georgios for your project guidance and @Amanuel our course mentor for teaching us tirelessly with a smile on your face.

I recently completed the AI driven Software engineering Skills City Bootcamp, and overall, it was a valuable experience with several strong points. The technical training was well-curated, offering a comprehensive and hands-on approach that significantly boosted my understanding of the material. The LMS was easy to use and resources available.

The career support team was another highlight of the program. They were incredibly supportive, assisting with every aspect of the job search process. From crafting a professional CV to optimizing LinkedIn profile and preparing for interviews, the personalized guidance made a huge difference.

The personal development support was also great. The bootcamp offered valuable resources and advice that helped me grow on a personal level. The emphasis on soft skills and personal growth was a significant benefit.

However, there is some room for improvement. The program was packed with numerous assignments, projects, and multiple programming languages within a tight 12-week period. This intense pace made it challenging for participants like me, especially those without prior experience, to fully absorb and learn the material. A slightly more balanced approach, with perhaps more time dedicated to mastering each skill before moving on, would make the program more accessible to beginners.

Overall, while the bootcamp offers excellent training and support, a bit more flexibility in pacing would enhance the experience, especially for those new to the field.

Thanks to all those that made the bootcamp happen!

I went into the course under the assumption it was meant for varying levels of experience, however, if you like me have used Unity before I would not recommend it. I completed 1 out of 3 months of the boot camp however the level of the course felt like it would be appropriate for beginners only and even then Unity Learn has extensive resources for beginners that are freely available and I did notice the lectures taking from these tutorials at times. Also the course based on the timetable doesn't feature any c# programming until just 4 sessions in week 7 of 12 but I feel most will be like myself where programming within Unity is one of the key things I was expecting to be taught, programming is also the first skill they list on their website for what you will learn.
The website also lists using Unreal however the boot camp only covers Unity, I expected this but I spoke to others who only discovered it after starting the course.

Beyond the level of teaching, I also felt the teaching methods were not up to standard.
Teams meetings were used to teach and there was a group of ~50 people, however any time someone in the group had a problem the instructor would stop to help the one person resulting in the 49 others having to sit and wait for sometimes very long amounts of time. I considered this a substantial waste of time and it was one of my biggest concerns with the boot camp. As the participants in the camp ranged from some experience to completely new these interruptions have been fairly constant over this first month. I'd suggest separate teaching and support sessions or breaking lectures into a first-half lesson and second-half support session would be a better solution for making good use of everyone's time.

The job listing portal they give access to is bare-bones. The number of relevant IT jobs is small and there were as of the last time I checked 0 games-related jobs. There was also no way to filter out apprenticeship-level jobs so overall it was not better than any of the standard job search websites I had come across before.

I cannot say much on the industry project offered due to NDA however I will say I wasn't impressed by the brief and it only seemed tangentially related to the games industry which is not what I was hoping for as the boot camp describes it as "a working game" on their website and also elsewhere lists contacts within the games industry but as far as I can tell these were just guest speakers.

I'm giving 2 instead of 1 star as if you are a complete newbie to Unity I can see there being some benefits to the course and some of the skills/careers talks were useful for things like CV, teamwork etc. However, I'd suggest if you have any experience it's probably not for you.

Unfortunately, the company forces us into signing NDA's so I cannot physically express my opinion in it's entire truth or detail on this platform, and there's a lot of constructive criticism I have passed on directly in private with the company.

What I can say, is I have taken the choice to leave the Bootcamp as the promises on their webpage were far different than what was actually received and feels incredibly dishonest.

This is a shame as this could genuinely be something incredible for people, instead it turned out to be completely the opposite.

Good luck to those who do want to still go through with this, but if I'm being genuinely honest, I cannot reccommend it and 12 weeks of your life will be better used elsewhere.

I had a really good experince with the BootCamp. really good intructors, explained in detail and giving extras for further developing skills. Good schedules, although for some subjects could be given more attention. Would definetly recommend.

For those of us with minimal tech knowledge, the bootcamp proved VERY useful. You have to be ready to put in the work over the 14 weeks, as its a lot of information to take. Tutor was also GREAT.

Overall.... satisfied and glad i did it.

The boot camp was great, mostly. A lot of things happened over the really short period of time, and I learned so much that I can't even get all it together in a list shorter than 10 rows.

With such little time to learn we still managed to cover most of the material, and submitted a few high quality projects that can be then used in a portfolio after the course is over.
I also learned programming, data visualisation, improved my skills in Excel, learned basics of PowerBI, cloud data management platform and ML models.

What I didn't like about this course is the way the research project is made, with a lot of randomness in team allocation and little help in sorting out the approach to the project tasks.

I took part in the October 2023 cohort data analytics bootcamp and overall found the course interesting.
Unfortunately, I'm writing this review because I have yet to receive my Credly badge even though it has been nearly 6 months since completing the course. I have contacted their team every few weeks since January to see what's taking so long, only to get told that they're still "sorting them out". This isn't really acceptable.

Additionally, towards the end of the course the instructor suddenly disappeared and was replaced by someone else which I think threw a lot of us as the teaching style suddenly changed which wasn't very conducive to our learning. While I don't believe this is a common occurrence, it did show a lack of monitoring on the companies behalf.

I am currently taking up one of their bootcamp courses and they are teaching us really well. they are well structured and focused on subject matters that value the most to the students. I am glad they gave me opportunity to be one of their students! William Haboc

It was very well thought out.
Now lets bear in mind the course is full time so it is easier to do when you are fresh out of school or between jobs. I however, did not have this luxury as i am a full time working father with 2 kids and a partner all of who need attention.
I was determined and i sailed through.
Its an awesome gateway course if you are new to IT as a whole and it can help structure your knowledge if you are already working in the IT space.
I don't regret the experience. Marco is one of the best tech teachers I've ever had and i also enjoyed sessions with Alice Beveridge.
The only down side for me was it was a full time course.
I also took the professional exam and passed.
I had tried on my own before and failed by a smidge so they must have done something right.😂

So I joined them through National Career Services and so far yet I’m very satisfied with step by step guide from professionals. I’m starting my cloud security bootcamp and feel very honoured to come across them for learning as they will be helping me with getting a job as well.

This course was a terrible experience, lack of direction, structure, interest or ability to actual actually teach. I, correction, scratch that, ALL! were so disappointed in this course. They are more interested in hitting the bare minimum for getting more funding, ie telling you to keep your camera on, meet quota for jobs applied for. oh and not forgetting the point group project, that takes up huge amounts of time of the course hours, that could be better spent on actually teaching. I can positively say all the student on my cohort felt this way. Rubbish, positives: The tutor we had is a nice person, thats it.

THE CONTENT OF THE COURSE IS VERY GOOD BUT ONE CAN BE COMPLETELY LOST FROM THE BEGINING TO THE END FOR LACK OF A LEVEL OF THE SUBJECT BEFORE STARTING AND CAN MEAN COMPLETE WASTE OF EFFORT IN ATTENDING. iT IS GOOD TO ADVERTISE THIS COURSE FOR THOSE WHO HAVE SOME LEVEL OF KNOWLEDGE

Marco was a great instructor and the structure of this program was amazing.
