IN4.0 Group Anmeldelser 85

Completed a 12-week Bootcamp with IN4.0 Group and found the experience pleasant and engaging. Good level of content explained very well for all levels of knowledge and experience. Would highly recommend for anyone looking to develop their skills. Especially with instructors such as Aaron who was incredibly knowledgeable, patient and very helpful in the way he helped guide students of the boot camp. Also found time to delve into some interesting topics of conversation!

Highly recommend and very thankful for the experience!

We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better instructor.

Aaron was always so patient, kind, and really knows his stuff. He went the extra mile every time—whether it was helping us get set up, fixing bugs, or just being there when we were stuck.

Super grateful to have learned from such a brilliant and genuinely lovely human being. Massive thank you, Aaron! 🙌

Don't trust the 5* reviews - it's IN4.0 employees.

This was a very informative and well-taught course. It was quite intense, and there is a lot to get to grips with, especially if you are brand new to coding, as I was. However, the tutor (Aaron, in this case) was excellent at conveying complex ideas in an easy-to-follow and engaging manner. He was also frequently available outside of lecture time to answer questions or explain things in more depth if needed. Self-learning is required to get the most from the course due to the amount and complexity of what is covered in the course materials; however, this can be leveraged into gaining further certificates and qualifications.

Some of the ancillary sessions on positive thinking, teamwork, etc., felt like they could have been better spent covering technical concepts, especially given how much there was to cover in such a short time. That said, I understand that these sessions may have been useful to others, and this could simply be a matter of personal preference.

The industry project was a good opportunity to work as a team and apply what we had learned to a real-world problem. However, in my opinion, two smaller, more varied projects might have allowed us to explore a wider range of technical skills, reduced the stress involved, and given us a better feel for the kind of job we might want after completing the course.

I would recommend the course; however, I would say it should be entered with either some cursory knowledge of coding or some other kind of technical background. Otherwise, it could be quite overwhelming.

I really enjoyed my time doing the course and found the tutor Aaron particularly fun, likeable, knowledgable, engaging and very patient when dealing with students of different abilities (though are Microsoft certified instructor for one module in the final weeks was slightly more wooden)

Whilst I gained a lot of knowledge, the intense pace of the course will mean I'll definitely need to go over some of the course with the resources provided afterwards just to ensure I've fully got my head around some of the concepts and that is partly the biggest flaw of the course. It is not for the faint of heart and a lot of dedication and commitment to using a lot of spare time to go over learning as by the time you've just got to grips with one topic, its time for the next which breakneck speed cause many people in the course to drop out. This did cause issues with my industry project which I don't feel they were as better organised to handle this eventuality as they could have been.
I think more effort could have been made to group people with different ability levels as well.

That said if you're prepared for it, it does provide a fantastic opportunity to learn technical skills as well as some career coaching advice.

I have to first say our instructor Aaron was an amazing tutor to have. Patience, expertise, jokes, each lesson was challenging but made easier due to his abilities and personality. Having 60 odd newbies to coding and never broke a sweat once, happily taking time to explain, re explain and demonstrate things.

I joined the software engineering cohort. The course content was thorough; careers and personal development, expertise talks, it was a well thought out programme and I learnt a lot. You will be challenged, but it is worth it, to push through and grow. I'd recommend this boot camp over and over again. Thanks Aaron and everyone over at skills city.

I thoroughly enjoyed the SE course and learned a large amount of programming languages in the space of 12 weeks. The instructor was extremely patient and supportive. Overall, I would recommend it.

The classes are well thought out and the teachers are extremely knowledgable and supportive. The industry projects help provide you with real world experience, especially regarding project management and problem solving. I have truly enjoyed the last 12 weeks on this course and I am disappointed it has had to come to an end. Thankfully there is still support there from the careers team until I find my new position in the tech industry.

Thanks @Aaron for all the support over the last 12 weeks.

Course: AI-Driven Software Engineering

I have learned useful skills and components in my ai driven software engineering bootcamp course and I have learned coding, how to create a website, and I have learned databases the staff is great and helped me, the resources are useful.The only criticisms I can give is that the course is very fast paced, and it was difficult to learn so many different subjects in a short amount of time. Overall I recommend the course if you are interested in software engineering.

My instuctor made the Ai Software Eng course worth the while. Thank Arron

The course at the start is challenging overall for someone with little experience. You will be pushed to enhance yourself in a good sense and be able to use different programming languages quickly. The instructor is very patient and will take the time to explain any issues you might have. Overall, I would recommend it as it's only 12 weeks from start to finish.

- Technical instructor very willing to help, explains topics well and provides extra learning resources if asked
- Assigned with a mentor who is supportive in attaining career goals (whether tech or non-tech)
- Pushed to apply learning and research further to complete an industry project
- Sessions to unwind, get to know other students and reflect on progress and important general questions
- Weekly career sessions filled with helpful tips
- Access to a job portal dedicated to the tech sector
- However, it was fast-paced so not able to master everything. Still need to look back on the learning materials. Also, many found it difficult to balance job search, project work, and reviewing learning materials.
(I joined their Software Engineering Bootcamp)

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.
