Frequently Asked Questions

  1. Do I need any experience with Data Science before starting?

    No, this bootcamp is designed that you can start from scratch. In twelve weeks you’ll have a very steep learning curve towards the principles and best practices within Data Science.

  2. How much time do I need to invest in the program?

    The Data Science bootcamp is twelve weeks long. Every week you have a 4 hour module from 9:00 am till 12:30 pm. No homework, but you can of course invest extra time beyond the modules if you feel like it!

  3. When will the classes take place?

    All our instructor-led modules are from 9:00 am till 12:30 pm, the other on-demand modules you can do whenever you want that week!
