I've just recently learned about Practicum by Yandex, but have already completed the free part. The tasks are quite doable. Neither too easy nor too hard. Having a cheatsheet after every block is very useful. The setup of the service is very convenient. I have absolutely no idea how the online platform checks your answers and points out the mistakes, but it does!

Simple and helpful
December 25, 2019

What makes Practicum by Yandex really stand out is the fact that theory goes hand in hand with practice. Another feature worth mentioning is the instant feedback that really facilitates the learning process. Overall, the course seemed quite simple to me as I've already taken some HTML and CSS courses before.

It's so great that Yandex came up with this course. I've been working in IT for 5 years and have never had time and motivation to study data analysis or coding. I was afraid to commit to a paid course because I didn't want to waste time and money on no guaranteed payoff. I'm hoping that with Yandex, I'll gain the necessary knowledge to work on my projects without involving outside sources.

"he free introductory part of the course was really insightful. Coming from knowing almost nothing about statistics and experimental design, I was glad that the theory was easy to understand while not feeling shallow. Just the right amount of information density and a lot of mentor support with practical assignments. The intro was good in setting all the necessary software for future steps. It inspired me so much I decided to dive into the full course.

And then... 8 months of math, statistics, analytics, algebra, theory of probability, finance, economics plus all kinds of computational tools. Oh, wait, add some management, social relations, advertising, psychology plus the rest of the social sciences. Not to forget about constant working on hands-on study projects! Needless to say, the course ended up being very challenging for me. Luckily, the mentors' attention seemed almost undivided: it felt like there were not many learners in the class. However, for the same reason, not many people seemed to interact on Slack, especially during the last three months.

To recap, the course was challenging, but I highly recommend it.

Data Science is a really, REALLY complex subject, which I happened to get a taste of during my last year at uni, so I needed something to improve my skills; that brings me to Practicum, which I have used as my main learning tool. Without it, I wouldn't have the proper system and guidance behind my efforts, and trust me - when you're studying complex mathematics, big data analysis tools and coding languages, you need ALL the help you can get :) I found everything to be very thoughtful and thorough, yet very compact and highly informative.

Terrific so far)
December 14, 2019

If you're looking for a way to brighten up your learning experience, have fun and improve as a software developer, you absolutely must give this platform a try. It's only been a month on-board, but I'm seeing great improvements in my coding skills, and as we progress through the course, I'm enjoying it even more, with how practical and real-life applicable all the given materials are. Terrific resource!

Truly one of the best
December 6, 2019

One of the best websites you can find if you're serious about studying Data Science. I don't want to spill the beans, but it's nothing easy. In a world led by technological advancements and soon by artificial intelligence, it's essential for people in my working field to get acquainted with the subject, and Practicum made it a whole lot easier to understand Python and the complex algebra I had so many troubles with. I'd love it if you provided more additional resources for every topic in case of one's need for a deeper understanding or general curiosity, but the course isn't missing anything out - very clear and consice, great experience.

Love it!

I've been hired as a junior front-end developer by a company in Moscow; it happened three weeks ago. I'm learning tons of stuff at work: Vue.js, Webpack. My hours are 10 to 7, but even after hours, I've got plenty to learn.
Practicum has really set me up well for front-end work. I'm pretty much a full-fledged programmer at work already. JS could use some work though, :)) ) but BEM that we did in the first couple months has been really helpful. All in all, I've got some real working knowledge from Practicum.

I'd like to say a big thank you to the Practicum by Yandex team of developers: it's such a great product that's worth every cent. When I started the course I had no experience in ITI didn't even study anything to do with IT, but that wasn't an issue with Practicum by Yandex. Aside from the theory sections, I got tons of practice in each chapter, and there were gobs of lectures and webinars to help with any issues or mistakes along the way. I can't say it was easy, as I had to make a real effort, and of course I wanted to do the training. But if I didn't understand something, there were mentors, instructors, and a support team just one text away, keeping an eye on my progressso a special thank you to them!

Interesting and worth it

I have spent some additional time learning html and css on my own, and some parts were a bit confusing, but I know how to code a button now so that's cool.

This is the best self-learning project I've ever come across. Practicum by Yandex is an opportunity for growth and learning, with practical knowledge pure and undiluted by the dry, sleep-inducing webinars you get with other platforms. It's a mainstay for anyone beginning their journey toward work as a web developer. It can be a challenging road, one traveled with trepidation and in fear of making a false step, though now there's the safety net that is Practicum by Yandex

I studied music professionally for 15 years, after which I moved on to agriculture. But that was only until I realized a year ago that I could become a software engineer! I spent almost a year studying on my own, although that didn't really work without a solid program. You spend all your time trying to stay motivated, and you wonder how practical what you're learning really is, and none of that helps you keep going. I couldn't wait for Yandex to come out with a course that worked for meI wanted something from a big developer. It turned out to be a challenge, but a fascinating one! Thanks to all the help I got from my mentor and coursemates, I'm ready to take on anything. You can expect quite a bit of work that will pay off with a range of practical knowledge, a sea of memories, and new paths for expansion. I discovered a new world full of opportunity, and thanks to Yandex, I know nothing I learn is superfluous or out of date. The skills I have will translate directly to the market. It's worth a shot if you want a quality education and a huge leap forward in your life journey.
