Data Analytics Career Track Reviews

Overall, I think the course is well-structured to help students with different backgrounds to learn new skills in data analytics. Even though it's designed to be a 6-month program, for students with relevant experience, they can speed up their learning and complete the course within 3-4 months as it's self-paced. I was able to complete the course in 3 months, as the mentors and student advisors were very responsive whenever you have questions (they have many mentors available besides the 1:1 mentor assigned to you). The career service from Springboard is overall very effective as well since most of the career coaches are professional technical recruiters and have been in the field for many years - I've worked with 3 career coaches, they are all very strategic in terms of resume writing and interview preparation. I was able to receive 2-3 times more interview invitations since I joined the program. The 1:1 mentorship is definitely the primary value of the program. My mentor was very supportive and knowledgeable - provide me lots of actionable feedback and advice. He really guided me down a career path that led me to an offer. I am overall very satisfied with this investment.

I loved everything about this course. It gave me the flexibility to finish it around my schedule while working & enabled me to learn a new skill set for future career opportunities. I did not know anything about Data Analytics before enrolling in the course, but after completing the course I feel extremely confident that I will find an opportunity to use my new skills in this industry. I would recommend this course to anyone who is interested in Data Analytics.

I started the course at the end of June 2020. The beginning of the course was great (the content in each of the units and the way they were built). But then in the Economics and Financial units, there were some videos we needed to watch, that I felt like were not in the level of what Springboard had so far.I think I was mostly frustrated about DataCamp. I did not feel like I've learned too much from it, and needed to find other sources to study from.The mentors (my mentor and the mentor on call) and the career coach I worked with were very professional, and I've learned a lot from them.Even thought the content was sometimes not to what I've expected,  I found the overall experience very positive. I was able to find a job in the field while still studying, so I am grateful for Springboard and everything they did for me. Now I am fulfilling a dream I always had and never had the time to pursue (until now). Thank you Springboard!

Springboard provides a high-level overview of data analytics. It is self-paced and convenient for those who are trying to learn with other time constraints. The statistics methodology is sound and concise. It was the perfect complement and review to my Quantative Analysis MBA class and Linear Optimization class. Springboard teaches the fundamentals, but students must take the initiative after the course to continually practice and learn to handle exceptions that were not covered in the course. The course focuses on analyzing data once it is cleaned, but data cleaning techniques are necessary to be successful in the industry if you're not given a clean dataset by a data scientist or a data engineer. I became more confident and learned more after internships with data that required mining and cleaning than simply by focusing on concepts in class. If Springboard incorporates an internship, then it would be excellent! The mentors come from the industry and have worked at major companies like Hewlett Packard. Career coaches have worked in a variety of industries as recruiters. So, their advice can be helpful. Everyone wants you to succeed. So, it was a positive experience. My review of Springboard will be complete when I am employed. If I gain employment, then it was worth the effort. If not, then perhaps the program needs adjustments. 

Springboard's Data Analytics Career Track curriculum covers a multitude of topics, both technical and non-technical.  While most students are focused on learning software and other technical aspects, Springboard also has a heavy focus on career development and the 'soft' skills necessary to build a network to help you find a role and build upon in the future.The career guidance is supported by your personal mentor, the Springboard staff and a library of helpful reference documents.  Whether you need help with a piece of software, job guidance or stuck on a certain question, help is easy to get.The curriculum is well thought out in it's layout and builds an early foundation that is utilized in later units. I definitely recommend this certification and its ability to set you up for future success.  Use this link for a course discount  https://www.springboard.com/invite/5SC3U

If you're considering a career in Data Analytics but don't know where to start - Springboard is for you. They give you all the tools you need to get started and provide support every step of the way. Is it challenging? YES! And that's GREAT because they really prepare you for what you can expect in real situations. Is the curriculum perfect? No, occasionally the directions would be contradictory or confusing. BUT there are many mentors, students, and advisors ready to help or fix such things as you come across them. I researched many courses before deciding on Springboard. I don't think you'll find a better price for the support and education you get from them. I am actually confident I will get a job as a data analyst because of Springboard. I came from an arts background, with no analytics experience, and 8 months later am being interviewed for data analyst positions. I got SO much out of this course and am happily writing this review because I truly believe others can too.

I was very satisfied with the Data Analytics Career Track at Springboard. From enrollment to completion everyone I interacted with was very friendly. The main reason I was attracted to Springboard was the 1:1 mentorship that was part of the learning process. As a novice to Data Analytics, I was very happy to have the mentor to guide me when I struggled and showed me new insights along the way. The rapport you build with your mentor is very valuable and with out this, the program would have been much harder for me to complete. I would recommend Springboard to anyone I meet. What a great investment for my future and it will be for yours as well!  

Springboard is an awesome place to get your start in data analytics. While their curriculum is intensive (as it cover a large breadth industry skills and knowledge), it is impressively structured to keep you on track to finish the program within 6-months. Springboard also has amazing mentors! From your 1-on-1 industry expert mentorship to Springboard's dedicated career and support advisors, Springboard has got it down. I would 100% recommend Springboard to anyone who is looking for a data analytics program that offers both support and substance.

Expect a solid grounding in SQL, MS Excel, Power BI, Tableau, Python, and Presentation skills.  Everything you need to be a functional Data Analyst.  The platform they use is very slick and user friendly.  They intelligently use Business concepts, including Finance, Statistics, and Economics as a context to learn Data Analytics skills.  The curriculum will not teach these topics themselves, but provide context to create the feel of a real-world data analytics project.  Job search support is excellent and will get you on the right track to finding employment.  Mentorship I found to be very informed and helpful.  They offer really more support than you could realistically consume.  No reason why anyone would leave disappointed in this course.  

Just finished the Springboard Data Analytics boot camp and would strongly recommend it to anyone who is looking to learn data analytics and pursue a career. Overall, I thought the Springboard curriculum was well curated and I feel very prepared to begin a career in data analytics. The course gave me strong skills in Excel, SQL, Tableau, Python and more. As I was finishing my final project, I was really pleased with how much I could already do in Python and SQL and feel more than prepared to contributed to a company with my data analytics skills. There were a few projects and subunits that were confusing or hard to followup but the Springboard team is great at soliciting feedback and improving its curriculum based on that feedback. Overall, a great course. 

I did the course full-time, as I was unemployed, and finished in 7 months.  I easily could have finished earlier but  took some time off due to illness. I took the Data Analytics career track.  The course was challenging but I really enjoyed it.  The 1:1 mentorship was awesome and I felt supported throughout the program.The career services were excellent, throughout the course and I look forward to continuing that part until I find a job (6 months of career services are included after the end of the curriculum). I So overall it was well worth it and I would highly recommend it.

I was laid off in March due to Covid, so I decided to hop into a bootcamp to prep me for my next career move. After reading the reviews and learning of Springboard's job placement guarantee, I enrolled, and let me tell you, it did not disappoint. In this course I learned how to better use excel and formulas to wrangle and analyze data, I learned data visualization tools such as Tableau and Power BI, and I also learned SQL and Python which are high demand languages. Springboard's mentor support and career coaching really helped guide me down a path that led me to my current role; one I landed while taking this course. If you are looking to pivot your career or just learn new skills to pad that resume, Springboard is your ticket. Best bang for your buck. They teach you the tools that are CURRENTLY being used in the data world, whereas many other bootcamps' teachings are a bit dated. 

It took me 8 months to finish my course, and could have even taken longer since my last project took almost a month to complete. Overall I am happy with the course, it was a great learning experience and very convinient way to learn new skill. The best part about this program was having a mentor, a wokring profesional and exepert in the field, who helped me overcome any challenges that I ran into during my curriculum. Job support was nothing special, it is a 30min meeting with a career coach who talks about your resume and trys to give you tips when it comes to job search, something that hasn't proved useful in my case, and as much as their "advices" were adequate, they were not impresive or life changing. My career coach sesions didn't help me find a job or make any progress in that area, it was my persistancy and detemination, and strong personality that got me a job. All in all I recomend this course, but I would recommend Springboard to work on career service suport as well as student advising suport, since it is imposiible to get a hold of student advisors.

I was looking to restart my career after a gap of few years. Although I had IT experience my inclination toward data analysis led me to pursue and study from one of the best online learning platforms Springboard. I did research about a few online learning platforms and Springboard suited my needs.They have a well designed curriculum with all the latest tools and technologies used for data analysis. I was impressed with the unlimited mentor calls that they provide. Whenever I felt stuck it was so helpful to book a call with the mentor and clear my doubts. All the mentors are industry experts in their own industry with extensive experience. Springboard also provides career coaching, resume creation, linkedIn profile updates so that you can begin your journey into this new career path.I have completed my certification and feel confident that the skills I have learnt will help me to land a job and find my new career path.Thank you Springboard for this exciting experience.

One of the most cost effective Bootcamp for Data Analytics. The curriculum by large covers: Business Analysis, Statistics, Excel, SQL, Power BI, Tableau and Python in terms of technical skills. The content is mostly open source, however compiling the curriculum and putting together the content does the job well towards the Data Analytics Course material. The 1:1 mentor weekly helpful, I personally used all calls for discussing the projects and going through the submissions. There is unlimited tutor calls where I would typically discuss any queries. The career coach calls are informative and helpful. Springboard has dynamically done everything possible to support the learning through this bootcamp. The job guarantee is something that no other bootcamp offers and got me to signup for the course. If Springboard can align instructor lead weekend sessions then I would aswell consider to signup for Data Science Career track.
