My experience with Winc Academy was very pleasant

My experience with Winc Academy was great. The program provided a wealth of valuable information about the role of an IT Service Desk Specialist, covering both the technical basics and practical skills needed for the job. What made it especially stand out was how enjoyable they made the learning process. The structured approach and engaging content made it truly fun to learn and absorb all the new concepts. Overall, this experience gives me great confidence and hope for making a successful career switch.

NO-SHOW and No cancellation

Planned a meeting, got a reminder 5-10 minutens before the set time. Was in the meeting in time and waited for 15 minutes only for nobody to show up and not having received any form of cancellation. Totally unprofessional waisting somebodies time like that.

Edit: They called me shortly after and apologized, a meeting had been delayed. Did the call immediately by phone so they have resolved it fair and square.

Full Stack Development Course

I completed the 8-month Fullstack Development course, and I’m really happy with the results! With no IT background, I’ve built a solid foundation in JavaScript, HTML, CSS, and databases. The course is easy to follow, even for beginners.

I also appreciated how accessible the mentors are via the online platform. Any questions or issues are quickly addressed with clear answers.

I highly recommend this course! It’s given me a strong foundation in Fullstack Development and boosted my confidence in my technical skills. I'm excited for the next steps in my career!

Full Stack Development

Well everything was good, until the software as a service (replit.com) change their business model. But overall you get a good experience what you will except as web developer in real life. Some courses could be better. Sometimes they have outdated modules definitely in online courses. Experienced teachers that you can approach with your questions.

Online Marketing Course

Loved diving into the online marketing course at Winc Academy! It wasn't just about learning new skills (which it totally did!), but also about pushing myself and proving that the whole "creatives can't be analytical" thing is a myth. Seriously, this course boosted my confidence and made me curious about what else I could learn. Feeling grateful for the whole experience – it was a real gift to myself! Plus, the Winc Academy team was awesome – super helpful and encouraging. Highly recommend this course to anyone looking to level up their skills and explore new possibilities!

Upgrading JS skills

For a Front End Developer this course expand you JavaScript skills. You need understanding of coding before entering this course. When you are making the exercises it give you power to learn more.

poor content and pitiful customer service

I recently completed the Data Analytics with Python course offered by Winc, and I must say that my experience was quite disappointing. The course heavily relied on directing students to freely available videos and articles on the internet. Winc Academy's contribution seemed limited to providing a few videos and assignments. However, I found the videos to be unengaging, and some of them lacked any relevance to the rest of the course. It seemed as though they were included just for the sake of having additional content.
The assignments, on the other hand, were unnecessarily challenging. The questions were often cryptic, and the links to the source data frequently didn't work. Whenever I sought clarification, I was instructed to post my questions in a Slack channel, but there was no direct way of obtaining assistance. Overall, you will pay over 3000 euros for content that could easily be found for free on the internet, leading to a great deal of frustration.
To worsen my experience, customer service was dreadful. When I requested to cancel the course, they initially claimed not to have received my request. Then they acknowledged it but repeatedly asked me to explain what was wrong with the course. Later, they insisted that I hadn't canceled within the designated timeframe. Eventually, they admitted that I had canceled on time but suggested I consider their other courses and possibly switch. However, when I declined their offer and requested a refund, they made me wait for a considerable period before informing me that only half of the money would be refunded. They cited my request coming in late (contradicting their earlier claim) and the completion of one assignment (which was inevitable since they took nearly three months to respond) as reasons for the partial refund.
Dealing with such a lack of professionalism and poor customer service is truly disheartening.

You can study quietly at your own pace online from home or elsewhere, no pressure from Winc. Great help from mentors and fellow students through Slack. + Good teaching material.

Good course to understand agile PM

Good course to understand agile PM, but definitely not worth 1000€. There is zero interaction /live sessions and zero download docs. It is only reading through clear well explained slides. But nothing additional to reading a short book about the subject. I really do not understand the price

Thank you for your review Silvia and good to have had a chance to talk to you on the phone. We are glad to hear that the course helped you understand Agile project management. However, we are sorry to hear that you expected more from this course. There are indeed no live lessons for this course. We do offer the possibility to interact with teachers and fellow students via Slack. You also receive feedback on your assignments during the course.

Good luck with applying your new agile project management skills. If you have any questions, you can always send us a message.

Regards,

Daimi

Really enjoyed my course at Winc! Nice and friendly mentors that are always ready when you need them. Eventhough I already had some pre-knowledge on certain parts of the course, they still were able to teach me some nice and important details. Would recommend it to everyone!
