I have been a part of Datatrained Data Science program and here are the pros and cons I have captured during the course period.
Pros: The course has been designed in a way that even a novice can be great analyst and start working with data. The trainers (My trainer was Deepika ma’am) are very professional and their explanations on queries does make sense.
They also provide personalized 1 to 1 sessions where you can clarify your doubts with your mentors (Apart from the ticket service and live chat support during the class).
Then comes the internship part where I have got an opportunity to grab hands on experience on Python, SQL and NumPy via FlipRobo (seems to be their placement partner)
The placement assistance worked a major role and I have got really great support during my pre-placement phase. I was getting 7-8 opportunies every month for 3 months. Unforunately I did not do well due my habbit of going blank at crucial times during most of the interviews however I finally got selected as a Business Analyst in KeyWe India software solutions and here I am working and writing a review for you all.
Cons: Not too much, however the service of response on tickets can be an area of improvement if I suggest. They normally respond the same day however I am sure that instant reply on tickets would be appreciated by many.
Also, their website require improvement as it gets stuck at time (not sure if it’s an issue with my internet).
If you ask about the course. It is mostly the same content that most of the providers offer however, what I liked the most is their environment of disciplined academic culture. The Trainers do not encourage students to ask questions during live classes, instead, there is a separate live chat support where there team is available to respond on any doubt during that class time or later.
Overall, It is one of the wise decisions I have taken on which I do not regret :D.
I hope this review adds any value to the reader.

A very common question which I have been receiving lately is upgrad worth it?
I will help you with this query of yours. Almost about 3 months ago I had enrolled in their data science program and there are major drawbacks which created doubts in my head whether is upgrad worth it? as I feel they are playing with the student’s time and money The institute mentions that they conduct live classes, but it is not continued for the whole training. And only a certain amount of sessions like for instance, out of 300 hours only 100 hours are dedicated for live sessions. The rest of them are mostly pre-recorded videos. Some fundamentals courses or training from Upgrad consist only of recorded videos and apart from their data science program some of the Master, MBA, and data analytics courses are expensive and are not suitable for working professionals.
The course fee is quite high, and even after paying that amount, there is no assurance that you will get a job after course completion. For those who don’t meet the criteria to avail of the assured job opportunity, there is no provision to claim a refund on the fees paid or any other kind of adjustment for the lost opportunity. After analyzing my reviews do you still feel is upgrad worth it?
Definitely No! You can find far more better options than UpGrad like Scalar, Udemy, Intellipath, DataTrained etc.
