Questions

What would you say to someone considering the Skills Bootcamp?

I would tell them to apply for one, as these are important skills to utilise in the workspace. It would
make you stand out amongst others when applying for jobs and such, as you are learning specialised
skills that typically are hard to learn on your own. I’m happy with the knowledge I’ve gained and the
support I have received. If you feel like you want to add something to your CV a skills bootcamp
would definitely enhance your work portfolio.

How would you describe the overall support you received?

I felt that the support from the team was very helpful, the team was very communicative and always
reached out to us if we needed further guidance or assistance. They were always open to
communicating and were very responsive.

What did you take from the Skills Bootcamp in Data Skills for Creative Industries?

I had learnt how to code and analyse data, something which was very foreign to me before. Being
able to analyse data and being able to communicate data to in an understandable language was a
crucial skill for me to learn in order for me to work in the creative industry.

Why did you join the Skills Bootcamp in Data Skills for Creative Industries?

I had graduated from Uni and was applying for jobs throughout, mainly in the creative industries. I
felt like I lacked the skills needed to work in this environment, so when I saw this bootcamp was
advertised I thought this would be perfect for me, as these skills are quite specialised, and it would
enhance my current skills as well as gaining a new skill set.
