BENLIGHTEN cut my employability timeline in half and at the same time introduced me to the world of tech. The process of changing careers can be overwhelming and led me down many stray paths but once I was a part of BENLIGHTEN's program, I was able to remain intensely focused and at the same time start to experience what it would be like to work in my field.
BENLIGHTEN is surely the best coding school to learn Data Science and Machine Learning. We got tremendous support and inspiration to learn technical skills and teamwork. We also used to regularly joined tech meetups and hackathons which increased our network and confidence. As a result, within 6 months I was able to start my professional career in Finland. Thanks a lot, BENLIGHTEN!
To me, BENLIGHTEN is much more than just a coding academy. It’s an empowering community and a supportive family amongst whom I’ve experienced the bright side of the tech world, where gender biases, stereotypes, and pre-defined roles have no place, where we are learning to code in order to make a difference and to shape a better future.
BENLIGHTEN gave me that push which I needed desperately to get my dream job in Finland. I struggled to get the job for almost 2 years but then I decided to join BENLIGHTEN to get what I was missing. At BENLIGHTEN, I significantly improved my web development skills, developed personal skills and developed projects which helped me build my profile. The six month-long journey ended pleasantly with a Permanent and full-time job contract in my hand!
For me, the most crucial part about joining BENLIGHTEN is the community and the atmosphere. Not only are the people here determined, hard- working and talented but they also have fun and enjoy doing what they love. The community provides a sense of responsibility without compromising the “fun”. Thanks to the people I studied with and the team at BENLIGHTEN that helped me, I pushed myself further and stronger than I ever had before when working alone.
The full stack program is one of the best learning experiences I've ever had. The instructors are incredibly experienced and have vast industry knowledge. Lectures are very interactive and offer hands-on experience on real-world projects. Due to COVID - 19, the program was organized remotely but that didn't slow us down at all! Without BENLIGHTEN I wouldn't have been able to achieve and learn so much in such a short time.
It was the best and the most efficient summer of my life. I got to learn so much. I had studied programming at a Finnish University before but it was nothing compared to BENLIGHTEN. At BENLIGHTEN everything is so practical, you get to work on real-life company projects and you feel like you are working in an actual company. After BENLIGHTEN, you can say truly that you are a developer.
