Raj KumarData Scientist, C1X Inc

The course did a fantastic job of laying the foundations of data modeling with dbt. As an embedded analyst, I learned a lot about the preparation of data and the steps taken to get data into a digestible format. The CoRise staff was super responsive and enthusiastic about dbt! I loved the community as well. Definitely recommend this course for those who want to learn dbt.

I have started 28 courses on udemy and 12 on coursera but have not finished any. Does that sound familiar to you? co:rise has such a refreshing approach to online courses, with all the little details that made a big difference for me. We had strong focus on community, via slack all the questions were answered not only by the teacher team but also by classmates. It was a hands-on experience with topics for real applications, taught by practitioners and supplemented with insightful fireside chats and guest lecturers. The mutual code reviews kept me engaged!

Eva Jauman Data Scientist

This was by far the best training course I have attended. The way it was structured and the support available from the instructor and TAs really made the learning valuable and lasting. I am looking forward to other courses in the near future!

TJ PolakSenior Manager of Business Intelligence, Embark Veterinary

This course has been an amazing learning experience - no only because of the content of the course but also the way in which is taught! It has the perfect mix of online - individual work - community time and resources. The teaching materials are very high quality and the whole team are super attentive and responsive. It's a great way to learn hands-on experience with dbt, get exposed to real life problems, industry experts and also networking! I highly recommend it!

The dbt Analytics Engineering course from Uplimit was a great first step in my career trajectory toward Data Engineering. It was a great experience with real-world examples, hands-on learning, and a great community. The instructors were very helpful and responsive and it was great to work in such a collaborative environment. I would 100% recommend this course for anyone looking to get started with dbt.

Jai PattonHandshake

There was a great balance in this course between learning Dbt concepts, putting them in practice, and understanding the vision of people using the tool today. I also appreciated the fact that TAs were available to help us at almost at any point of time during a week. The peer reviews were also a great thing because it allowed me to understand the logic used by other persons.

Emmanuel TreichAnalytics Manager Egencia

I absolutely loved this class. Not only was the content fantastic, but the course format and support was unlike any online class I've taken. The lectures, work sessions, coding parties, online communities, and deadlines all helped me learn more material faster than I expected! The co:rise team is amazing at creating a community of practice where you can ask any question and get a thorough response immediately. I'll be recommending this class everywhere I can!

Chloe BrownSenior Data Analyst

Best online course I have ever taken! The course content, while challenging, was pretty much right where it needed to be. And the lectures, special guests, and project sessions, gave insights into how companies are using dbt now as well as lessons learned. Amazing support through online sessions and slack channels from industry experts. Loved the 'never a dumb question' attitude! I highly recommend it for anyone wanting to get into dbt!

Stephanie MottData Warehouse Developer at UC Santa Cruz

Just finished my last project for co:rise's dbt Labs course on snapshots, exposures, and artifacts. I can't wait to apply all the awesome dbt best practices I learned to super charge our data foundations at Dooly. Friends in the data space: I would highly recommend checking out co:rise! The class nails a lot of what I need out of a course, namely: Skills I can use right now at work, taught by fellow professionals who are also in the trenches getting it done; Great networking opportunities in the analytics engineering space; Some (soft! reasonable!) deadlines to help me prioritize coursework.

Stef ClausProduct Analyst @ Dooly

The co:rise class on analytics engineering does a great job balancing applicable learning experiences with realistic expectations that you are probably working full-time and have a life. It's hard to find a class that respects both and this one hits the nail on the head.

Michael CaruanaVice President, Data & Analytics, Allied World

Having the opportunity to learn from other peers in the industry and the fabulous instructors was priceless. Their willingness to go the extra mile and immerse themselves with the cohort upon their work and life commitments was unmatched!

Emmanuel Osei BoatengData Analytics Engineer

I've been through a lot of online courses but finishing co:rise 's Analytics Engineering with dbt was probably the best experience yet. Fab community, discussions on best practices, being able to apply knowledge at work from day 1, great pacing and support throughout, it just worked right.

Rolandas GlotnisSenior Software Engineer, Lyst

I had used dbt before, but this course helped me understand the foundations of the tool and many of the advantages of using it. You learn as you go with projects and can see your improvement every week, which is very motivating.
