Several things make us different: 1) Our program is self-paced, while almost all bootcamps have a strict learning schedule. We ensure accountability through daily meetups, 1on1, and project assessments. Turing College suits people, who work

Thanks for questions. Almost all of our students have prior knowledge of university-level mathematics or did some coding, data courses on the internet. Of course, we have several students without such knowledge; nevertheless, they are fast
