Best Computer training schools in Canada

The coursers are really helpful and intensive,there are many assignments and projects that helped my to develop my technical skills, after graduating there was an opportunity to join real client projects to address their unique business needs, this is crucial to improve soft skills like communication and problem solving, as well as continuous enhance technical skills, and this part of experiences is so important to put in the resume to get an interview. And the teachers, TAs are also very professional and helpful. TAs are online to help students almost everyday even after dinner. Highly recommended to improve yourself at WCD.

WARNING - DO NOT WASTE A PENNY ON THIER DATA ENGINEERING PROGRAM AS IT'S A RECIPE FOR DISASTER!!!

I completed their Applied Business Intelligence program, however their Data Engineering program wasn't good and this review is purely about DE program.
Background: I worked in traditional ETL space for a while, know data modeling, most of the lingo in the data space.

Most of the companies out there will ask interview questions on SQL, Data Structures and Algorithms for any of the Data Engineering roles. You will not learn any of those skills in this course whatsoever.

The biggest problem I encountered is there's way too many tools squeezed into this DE program. You don't get fair amount of depth and wide knowledge on any of those tools because you're rushing onto the next without having your foundations strong.
We started with Docker, didn't quite learn much and teaching style of that particular instructor didn't help whatsoever to pick up any bits and pieces of docker commands to deploy applications. I remember almost everyone in my class struggled to capture the docker concepts. When instructor asked in our class if we're feeling confident about docker then everyone said, no, we're not and confused. Some even said that they will have too google or take a separate docker class or lessons to pickup those skills.

The data modeling module was good since the instructor had pretty good background, took his own time to explain the concepts in depth. Almost everyone is the class felt happy about that topic. In data engineering, data modeling is crucial part of building infrastructure. Hence, the extra time and effort to get through those concepts are very important for anyone. If the data in the fact table is not stored at the right granularity then entire data model can go wrong. I was happy that they assigned an experience instructor to that module. Forgot his name but he works as an Analytics Engineer.

Spark is another important tool to know in order to survive in data engineering space. I personally think, they should have at least assigned 8-10 weeks for this topic since it's not easy to pick up Spark. There's lot to learn about Spark from in-memory, caching, optimizations, performance tuning, optimization, bucketing. Only some topics were covered to good depth while other areas were skimmed.
There was lot of AWS infrastructure work we had to do like setting up network, IP's, firewalls which could also be done using Terraform (Infrastructure as a Code), but we did lot of manual work.

Overall, it didn't stand up to my expectations and had to drop half-way through the program. Couldn't transfer any of the amount I paid for DE program to another program of theirs and had to pay full fee for the Applied Business Intelligence program.

It wasn't worth paying all that heavy $$$$ to sit through a program that doesn't teach you a lot. I personally don't recommend anyone enrolling into their data engineering program.

Hello can you help me with a contact number to reach out to the school, I wish to ask about the programs offered and tuition.
Thanks

I attended WeCloudData Applied BI program in 2022 Jan and finished in early April. After the course I was assigned a mentor helping with my resume and interviews, from June to until I landed a DA position in September. It was a very comprehensive program, covering different business industries knowledge and required technical skills.

Every instructor, TA and mentor at WeCloudData are all responsible and helpful, they always would love to share their experience. I'm very glad that I made the decision to grow with WeCloudData. I highly recommend this program/institution. At the same time, I must say even with all the assistance how far you can go is depending on your determination and how much efforts you make.

Great place to learn new skills, I enrolled for Data Analytics bootcamp by 2021, Post 8 months of completion I have landed role of Senior System Analyst

Some of the pros:
1. Team of lecturers are very knowledgeable and were currently working in Data field
2. They teach what are the required skills (Python, Excel, PowerBI, Big query, Tableau) that is required and how to learn and implement in Data field
3. Part of Bootcamp we were able to work in real time projects which was very useful in adding it as portfolio under Github

Would definitely recommend WeCloudData for any of their Data courses. Its definitely worth the money and time spent

I had a great experience with the Business Intelligence bootcamp. It was beginner friendly and well structured. I learned new skills like SQL, Python, Tableau and Power BI and used those skills to work on projects i could add to my portfolio. The course had useful quizzes and assignments to practice my new skills. The icing on the cake is the career guidance where they have a mentorship program. I highly recommend this bootcamp for people looking to pivot into the world of Data Analytics.

Don't choose this college for study i got refusel in march 2020 but they didn't refund my fees yet i sent alots of mail but they can't reply single mail.

I got my data science and big data diploma at WeCloudData this July and absolutely loved the experience here.
The program was fast-paced yet allowed enough time to fully understand the concepts, and practice with different projects. I also enjoyed the projects to be a combination of the skills taught throughout the program. Guest lectures were very helpful for students to improve their learning in a more interactive way. I highly recommend this program and WeCloudData to anyone who wants to launch a data related career with practical, hands-on experience.

I am not happy with this College, they do not respect the terms of refund of tuition fees which are 90 days after providing the proofs for which we want a refund of full tuition fees. I have been requesting a refund since July 2020 , no follow-up until then, and they are unable to give correct answers .. it is only a college of crooks and scammers, I have started the procedure to file a complaint against them if by the end of November I have not received my full refund. So I can't recommend you this College.They are unable to give rights reasons, but i will show them that they can't play with me...See in your own eyes how an genuine institution can have this kind of behaviour. I wrote them in August but they answered on september proof that they are not serious,

I attended the Data Science & Big Data Diploma from WCD. It helped me learn new concepts in Data Science, Big Data and even an introduction to Deep Learning. More importantly, they give you a chance to work with real world projects with interesting clients and present insights. The curriculum is quite comprehensive and well designed. The group assignments, industry guest lectures and discussions were also fun to be a part of.

Even though after few weeks of the course, we had to move the classes online due to the pandemic, they ensured that the learners still have an ongoing engagement and have all the necessary tools and people in place to help with the learning experience. Everyone in their team is extremely helpful, including the lecturers and teaching assistants. They try to guide you as much as possible and give enough personal attention. Only thing that is required of the student is to put in their best effort in the process of learning - be curious (it's a data ''science'' program), follow their instructions, work on your assignments, projects and ask questions.

The college provides great hands on training for Manual and Automation Testing. Technologies that are used are very up to date. I highly recommend attending.

Very bad experience. The manager (Asian lady) ask us to wait for the exam because they were facing technical issues. She asked us to wait for 2 hours so they can restart the server but after 2 hours she went to lunch and we had to wait for her to come back after 45 mins, she came back and told us to reschedule. :) Great experience.

Never go to this college Never ......think twice
Go their if you want to ruin your couple of years

Ya i know but you took fees from me in a single cheque but returned it 12 cheques of **0$ i am bonded for a year why didn't you take my fees life you returned?
Give me single cheque right now if you can i ll return your all 12 cheques. If you are genuine institution give me a single cheque
If you are genuine institution give me a single cheque i am here and ready to return all the 12 cheques

Exam center is loud, in the same building as high school and daycare.The front desk lady was mean just before I sit for my AWS exam. Not a single instruction explained before taking me to my exam room, not about the facilities nor if there was a technical problem how they can assist.
Save your time and money!

My son, went to Canadian Technology College for Software Quality Assurance Tester. Overall he was pleased with the course and found the Job after three weeks.

This program is fantastic!

I didn't have a coding background and the way they prepared each module made it easier to understand from basic concepts to Advanced SQL, Python, ML and Data Science that I just finished. It is all very exciting. They really do prepare you and offer great support (includes problem sets, individually and in group and quizzes). Teachers are well connected and help you, no matter the prior experience. When you graduate, you have a portfolio of projects, a very good literature and also hands on practise what is important as they showcase your writing capability.

Yea I had my A+ here. Not a bad place though except that you can easily be distracted by people going in or out if you sit by the entrace.

Outdated program , old system, old computers, felt like 90's . Very grumpy attitude within the stuff. After completing the course and passing CSTB exam , they failed to give me my certificate due to uncompleted homework which is not required by the board. I could just pay $300 and do this exam from home. Very upset with this guys and will be calling ministry of education.

The level of knowledge to start a course here is not very high, so is perfect for anyone who wants to enter in an IT career without having a lot of knowledge with computers.

I have done my IBM certificate test here. It is a certified center to do tests for certifications. The only strange thing was the guy at the reception desk barely spoke English. Everything else was fine.
