From what I see in this thread with the OP u/GreyCoyoteX quoting prices of GBP 117 / year and u/Tyszq quoting prices of USD 69 / year, it seems like DataCamp might perhaps be adopting a policy of localized prices. I am in India and on their promo page I see their October discount to sign up for USD 49 / year. For what it's worth, you can try here: https://www.datacamp.com/promo to see if you get the same offer. Do check out the GitHub Global Campus: https://docs.github.com/en/education/explore-the-benefits-of-teaching-and-learning-with-github-education/github-global-campus-for-students/about-github-global-campus-for-students Along with it comes the GitHub Student Developer Pack: https://education.github.com/pack This gives you a truckload (possibly a convoyload) of free stuff and offers, including 3 months free of DataCamp. From what I gather, you'll need to fill out an application form that takes about 2 weeks to process, including your student ID details etc. for them to verify. All you need is to: Be currently enrolled in a degree or diploma granting course of study such as a high school, secondary school, college, university, homeschool, or similar educational institution Have a verifiable school-issued email address or upload documents that prove your current student status Have a GitHub Personal Account Be at least 13 years old Hope this helps, my friend. Rock on! (EDIT: Typo corrected.) More on reddit.com

If you're a student, why not go avail their student discount or student three months free datacamp, if you have an @edu domain. Or can prove that you're a student. As for how good it is, for beginners is the best paided resource (meanwhile free code camp the second non paided one). There's always discounts which could push the annual subscription to under 100 bucks, so use your free 3 months via student discount and buy it when it's under 100 bucks. Some people suggest using VPN, but I don't think your "payment" will process. Because different prices, but I don't suggest it. When you get access to datacamp, it unlocks everything. Included assesments (the same assessment can be taken twice a week) Also includes the Certification Exam attempts as well. You can attempt an exam and if you fail it lock for 30 days, and suggest your courses you should go over to pass the exam. More on reddit.com

I always see their ads on youtube and it starts with 'With datacamp you don't have to install python, you can just run it from the browser'.. making it sound like that's such a complicated step to overcome. So based on just that sentance I would personally not even consider it. More on reddit.com

I haven't used it yet, so I cannot really tell you... But in case you are a student, you could get free access for (I think) 3 months via the github student developer pack. More on reddit.com
