I've started this Bootcamp because I wanted to put my 110% in my passions and I thought CareerFoundry could help me with that. After a couple of weeks, I realized that it was the best choice of my life! I really enjoyed the course, the support (tutor, mentor, professional mentor, and colleagues) and I can say without a doubt that it's the best investment you can make. In only 2 months after my Bootcamp finished, I found the job I was looking for. It's a dream and it's everything thanks to these wonderful people that strive to help others achieve their dreams. -

I have been taking the UI Design course since Nov 2021. It only has been 3 months now but I’m learning tons about UI Design. Their curriculum totally makes sense to me and it comes in very smoothly to my head. My tutor and mentor are awesome people who give me pin point advices and suggestions. When I have any questions regarding my tooling issue, UX, UI, and career, they are the people come up to my mind first now and they are very reliable answering my questions.
I am satisfied with this course so far and I can’t wait for more. -

UX Bootcamp Takeaways 2020-21
Read more Read less of Christian's review
My experience overall was great. I’ve learned so much not only about UX, but the industry as a whole and my potential career path as a new designer on 2022.
Learning The Tools:
Although my experience was smooth and progressed in a good linear fashion, I can see how it may be slightly different for some others. For context, I came into the program with some prior knowledge about the various tools used to create the fancy phone mock-ups and animations. For a completely new person, there might be a learning curve as CF doesn’t go too in-depth on how these programs can be used.
Advice For New Students:
Essentially what I’m getting at is that, you have to do research outside of what CF actually teaches. Be proactive in expanding your learning on top of each section. The good thing is they provide many links in each task to expand your knowledge. And I highly recommend you read each one. And on top of that watch CF’s YouTube videos.
Course Critique For CF:
I don’t have many but the main one has to be with the example project within the course “Fisherly”. It seemed very “half done”. Each example deliverable didn’t seem like it would pass in a real world situation. Maybe it was purposefully simplified to not overwhelm students. But In my opinion, I want to see a seasoned designer genuinely go through the process of making a project that they actually put on their portfolio. Just so that I understand what a well done case study actually looks like, instead of having to find my own examples online.
Overall:
Don’t be afraid of this review, the positives I have for this course heavily out way the critiques. In all honesty the community and support system within CF are top tier and can make your experience 10x better if you’re proactive. -

I recently started out the Data Analytics course with Careerfoundry. From the beginning until now[I'm in the middle of the course] I always felt well taken care of, either by my Student Advisors, my Tutor especially and my Mentor as well as other Students within the Community. I started with near to no knowledge about Dara Analysis and 3 month in the course im analysing Data in Excel, creating visualizations in Tableau and prepare presentations. Im overall happy about that I made the decision to go with Careerfoundry! -

I think the CareerFoundry's UX course is great. The self-learning course content is highly relevant and the support from the Tutors and Mentors is very helpful in staying motivated. There is also a large student community so connecting with students with who'm you can collaborate with on tasks and ask general questions makes the learning experience more enjoyable. -

My experience
Read more Read less of Mima's review
I was really hyped about the beginning, and it was amazing. I started first as a private student, but then I got Buildungsgutschein (if you are unemployed and live in Germany, check it out!) and started again, but I could resubmitted tasks that are done so far (which is cool). But I was assigned to another Tutor and Mentor.
So the biggest advantage of CF is that it has 2 (later 3) persons that are in constant contact with you: your tutor, mentor and career specialist(that comes later, after you've done 51% of the course). I really really really love my mentor. She is so funny and full of great advices and I think we just flipped. She is telling me about the job preparation, what can I improve, what should I be relaxed about, what can I read/listen to/watch. Amazing person, who always makes my day!
And tutor, who I'm in okay relationship.
You have 6 achievements, which are divided into several tasks (7-11). They can require from 1-3h until 7-9h to be done.
All in all, I like it because I am the one responsible for the time management, for how I'm gonna organize my day, studies, breaks. I really love that. And also, I've learn so much not only about UX but about myself too.
The con can be that you are paired with a person that is not an inspiring one to you. But even that you can manage- either say it to Student Advisor (they are there to make everything flow easily) or change your point of view/ expectations.
All in all, I would recommended! For sure. -

I am halfway into the course and loving the experience so far! The big emphasis on React during the course, also influenced my decision a lot, as it was something I wanted to learn for a long time. Was also looking for a longer Bootcamp (no 2/3 months) so CareerFoundry was the perfect match :) I would recommend it! -

Great course!
The course was great! I learned so much. The help from my tutor and mentor was invaluable, as well as the career / job preparation coaching. I particularly loved how many of the tasks were structured very similarly as they would in a "real live" job scenario, starting with user stories, to creating kanban boards etc. -

I'm currently enrolled in CareerFoundry's full stack web development program. All of the learning is on-demand, and you are provided a tutor to review daily tasks and a mentor to review projects and have regular Skype calls with. The program is flexible, so you can work whatever hours you want at whatever pace you want, which is the big draw for me. I'm half-way through and am satisfied with the skills that the program is developing in me. I haven't yet started my job search so I cannot comment on the job assistance. -

I am super happy I was able to take the UX Immersive course with a Bildungsgutschein from the german jobcenter. During the course you work on two portfolio projects, one is short to get an overview about the process and one is more detailed. This helped me a lot to practice UX methods and get confident with different software. You get assigned to a Tutor and a Mentor who help with tasks, software and provide support when you get stuck. There is also a Career spezialist to prepare for the job application phase and a slack community to reach out for various questions. I would highly recommend school! -

Engaging Project Based Learning

CareerFoundry has been an engaging and fun experience. The content is highly relevant and easy to do self-directed. I appreciate the examples of student work they include which help me understand if I'm on the right path. In addition, every task is working towards something that could be in a portfolio but broken up into small chunks so that it is not overwhelming and helps keep you motivated to keep working. The tutors and mentor have been amazing! They respond to my questions quickly and give detailed feedback. I recommend CareerFoundry to anyone due to the support, curriculum, and the fact that is all comes at an affordable price that is hard to beat. -

UX Design

I started the CareerFoundry program in January 2021 and completed the main UX Design course in July 2021. I completed the remaining courses (specialisation - UI for UX Designers & Job Preparation) in September and October 2021. I don't normally write reviews, but I feel like I have to write a review for CareerFoundry. My experience with this course has been nothing but positive. I started the program because I wanted to execute a career change, and after conducting an extensive amount of research on online courses, I decided to proceed with CareerFoundry. I chose them because of 2 reasons:
1) They focus more on your portfolio rather than the certification (as I have some experience within the creative industry, I know that employers are only interested in what you can bring to the table in terms of creativity, rather than your qualifications).
2) They have a job guarantee (I thought that they must be sure of themselves if they can give you your money back if you don't get a job within 6 months of completing the course).
CareerFoundry has helped me discover my new passion for UX design and have helped me land my first ever full-time creative position as a Junior UX/UI Designer. After completing the entire course on 12 October 2021, I landed my new job on 26 October 2021. CareerFoundry has helped me develop a brand new skill set, successfully market myself as a job seeker/career changer, and has given me the tools necessary to create an industry-standard portfolio.
The curriculum is up to date, easy to understand, and structured beautifully. It's so easy to follow and psychologically challenges you to go above and beyond on your task submissions by featuring your work to other students (if your work is a great example). I'd say the only suggestion/criticism I have for them is to show more video demonstrations, as there is a lot of reading to do. This might benefit students who have a low attention span and find it difficult to read long paragraphs at a time. Other than that, the course is amazing. I also really like how it presents a timeline of your progress and what you can do to stay on track.
The mentors, tutors, student advisors, and career specialists are incredibly helpful and are there for you every step of the way. I am more of an independent student and I don't like asking for help much. I also didn't feel like I needed a lot of help either, as the exercises and tasks were so easy to understand. The only time I would ask for help is when I needed my mentor to review my portfolio, just so it was up to industry standards.
All in all, CareerFoundry is an incredible online course and it's no wonder why they are one of the leaders in UX Design online education. I would recommend the UX Design course to anyone who has a creative foundation, high level of empathy, willingness to learn, wants to change careers, and has persistence and drive.
I cannot thank CareerFoundry enough for what they have helped me achieve.
Best wishes,

I am mid-way through my UI Design course with Career Foundry. This was one of the best decisions of my life as I’m learning something I love and getting great feedback and support along the way.
Everyone at Career Foundry is super supportive and I would recommend 100% choosing a course with them. If you have the chance to invest on yourself and your education, this is a great place to be, and you can do it at your own pace , which is great too! -

The school curriculum is great. They have a great way of teaching and building your portfolio at the same time. My only complaint is that there are a lot of designer tools you need to master and they don’t really teach you how to use them. -

From the onboarding, I have to say that everything made sense, and they sent you material before and were able to sign up to learn more about each specific study field. I studied five months prior, but I had no structure and low confidence levels when I taught. It would be tough to pull this off, especially with no help or direction in my portfolio. I think CareerFoundry has an excellent structure for self-paced learners who thrive on being self-accountable and dependable. Because you are in an online cohort and not in person, it is super important to build that relationship with your tutor/tutors. I had Bryce and Vijit, and they always give good feedback and send links to relevant material. Besides that, my mentor Oz is very personable and has a remarkable ability to break down problems or questions for me, and his video feedback is priceless. Lastly, I have just recently started working with my Career Specialist Cheron, and she is excellent and has an insightful view on why I want to pursue specific opportunities. I would say you get what you put into the program. -

Careerfoundry has been the best decision I've made in a long time. From the course work and the way it is presented to both my amazing Tutor and Mentor, I feel more and more prepared for the field of UX as I get through the course. The course does an amazing job of keeping students engaged and I enjoy the way the information and different concepts are presented. I do wish that Figma was presented in the course since it is used a lot out in the field, but maybe this is something students will have to learn on their own as I did. -

CareerFoundry is a great platform for someone like me with no Tech experience and wants to transition to a career within the UX/UI field. Their content is not only informative but always up to date, so I am always confident that the study materials being taught will allow me to practice industry standards in the real world. The concept of their course is very useful as I was able to work on a real world project that I can add to my portfolio. Instead of having just a certification to showcase to potential clients, I also have a project with all my deliverables that can better explain my thought process within the UX/UI field in addition.
Thank you CareerFoundry for helping my transition to my dream career and holding my hands with empathy throughout the process. -

Definitely recommend. For anyone in a tech role, you're always going to be updating your skills. You can never learn enough or have enough practice. But my course with CF gave me the skill set and confidence necessary to learn on my own, without a college degree. I feel very prepared for the junior data analyst role and for a lifelong career. The skills you learn also match up almost exactly to the job descriptions of junior analyst job postings, with some data science curriculum as a plus. -

I absolutely LOVED my time studying UX Design with CareerFoundry and honestly it was so much better than I had hoped!
I had brilliant mentors and tutors to guide me and I received great feedback throughout, I really doubt I could have excelled this much without all this feedback! The course does its best to prepare you for work afterwards and does a good job considering it is fully online. The course is broken down into manageable chunks and you learn not only core principles and techniques of UX Design, but also bits of UI Design and even a small amount about speaking with developers and how to code! I chose the UI Speciality which i'm super happy about because I finished the course with 3 portfolio pieces! My incredible career specialist Neha helped me; prepare my resume and LinkedIn, create a great cover letter and practice interview techniques. The only thing I would say is this course is no joke, it can be intense at times and even though I took it on a part-time basis, I ended spending about 25 hours a week, worth it though!
After finishing my course less than a month ago I have found a full-time UX/UI Designer role, something I could have only dreamed about before all of this. 100% recommend to anyone, it's definitely worth the money! -

Everything here is to get you from knowing nothing to start a career. Great pace, no worries if you are late on summiting your homework, but this is not for slackers. The course do a great job of giving you everything for you to succeed, specially with the job guarantee program.
Only negative is that they don't teach you how to use the softwares you will be using on the job (Adobe XD, Sketch, Figma, etc) rather they guide you to use such tools but it's up to you to learn them at your own pace. I give them a pass just because softwares tend to be outdated with the years. -

I think if you are new to the UX design field, need flexible time to learn, you must choose CareerFoundry because its course is very well structured. It consists of an intro UX course, a UX Immersive course, and a specialization course. After learning, you will be proud of yourself can do the UX design. Also, they have a great team to support you. You do not feel alone even though this is online learning. -

I'm taking the full UX course which includes an intro course, an Immersion course and a specialization course. I love how much they focus on the design process and drilling it in. I also love that you come out with multiple projects for your portfolio.
Some more things I love:- Lots of mentorship
- Video calls with mentors
- Lots of freedom to design your own way
- Constructive criticism
Things I Don't love:- It can be hard to talk to student services if you have a problem with a mentor or tutor. They only communicate via email and it can be hard to explain your whole situation and be understood. But they are doing their best to help
- The first project is only up to the first wireframes. So you need to take extra time to make it portfolio ready
- I feel they lack some extra resources they do provide some with the instruction but I find myself having to find my own resources for extra learning as theirs aren't always helpful or relevant.
Overall, the course is a good bang for your buck and I'd reccomend it. -

I recently completed my UX design course with Careerfoundry (Get a 5% discount) and, I would like to share the answer to the 5 critical questions that I was looking for before I enrolled in the course.
-
DO YOU NEED A BACKGROUND IN DESIGN TO DO THIS COURSE?
-
IS THIS COURSE WORTH SUCH INVESTMENT OF MONEY?
-
HOW IS THE COURSE IN PRACTICE?
-
HOW’S THE MENTOR AND TUTOR SUPPORTING YOU?
-
WHAT IS THE REAL ADVANTAGE OF DOING A COURSE WITH A JOB GUARANTEE?
DO YOU NEED A BACKGROUND IN DESIGN TO DO THIS COURSE
Before enrolling in the UX design course with Careerfoundry I was able to complete a bachelor’s degree in Digital media, so I had a good foundation in design. However, I agree with Careerfoundry when they state on their website that you don’t need to have any background in design to do this course as they will teach you all the process from the beginning. The first part of the course is a very introductory project to allow you to get the foundation on UX design.
What I, personally, feel is required is, generally, a good knowledge of using the computer and software, even if they are not design related. You will need to be ready to learn all the software that you will need to use during this course on your own. Yes, you can ask for help or support from your tutor and mentor, but learning software is all about practicing by yourself. The good thing is that in most cases, once you become confident with a part of this software, all the rest will get easier to learn. What I feel is more important than a background in design, to complete this course successfully, is to have strong motivation, and the willpower to keep going when you may feel frustrated on some task or won’t feel confident about your knowledge and skills.
IS THIS COURSE WORTH SUCH INVESTMENT OF MONEY?
Many people have been asking me why I did not do a free or much cheaper online course. I probably could do it, and I believe that it is possible to start a successful career in UX design also with that type of course. However, I felt that the advantage of having a mentor and a tutor to support me, the warranty of an updated and quality proved curriculum, and the job warranty, have been fundamental in giving me the awareness that I was working in the right direction and, therefore, to keep me motivated until the end of my course. The fear that the course I would be doing may not have been enough to get in the UX job market, alongside the feeling that I could have wasted my time studying a course without many warranties, would most likely have stopped me in the process.
HOW IS THE COURSE IN PRACTICE?
The three different parts of the course are divided into achievements, where each achievement includes an average of 10 tasks to be completed. The fundamental course includes just one achievement, the immersion 6 achievements, and the UI specializations 2 achievements. Each task is estimated to require an average of 4/5 hours in total to be completed, but a few of them need more time. Each task usually consists of an initial reading that generally requires from 30 to 50 minutes. In support of each reading, you typically receive plenty of additional suggested resources if you wish to get deeper into the topic. After the reading, you have a straightforward quiz that needs to be done. Usually, it requires less than 5 minutes. Finally, you have to do your task for the topic. This can be anything from doing some user research, wireframing, or some exercise to help you understand the fundamentals of UX design. You will also get access to see three of the best tasks submitted by other students as an example, so you will have a more precise understanding of what is required to do in that specific task. Most of the tasks you will be doing will be part of the final project that you will include in your portfolio. Overall, you complete at least one different project for each of these phases. At the end you will come up with at least 3 projects on your final portfolio, which is what matters at the end when it is time to apply for jobs.
HOW’S THE MENTOR AND TUTOR SUPPORTING YOU?
The tutors are usually UX/UI designers with at least a couple of years of experience in the field, while the mentors are typically senior UX designers with plenty of experience. The tutor is the one who will approve all of your tasks and will be ready to assist you in any problem you may face while working on your assignments. This will be done through chat only, where they are usually replying to all of your questions in a few hours.With the mentor, however, the interactions are through video-chat. You have unlimited calls with the mentor, but I don’t think you will need more than once per week. I found myself also going through the course for two or three weeks without needing any call. The mentor will be the one that will approve the final task of each achievement and the one that should help you to orientate in the world of the UX design industry, sharing tips and advice for being successful in this field.
Other than the tutor and mentor, I found the Slack community created by Careerfoundry to be another great source of support. That is the ideal place to get connected with other students that perhaps are working on the same tasks as you. It is very helpful, especially when you may need feedback or collaborations with other people to complete the tasks.
WHAT IS THE REAL ADVANTAGE OF DOING A COURSE WITH A JOB GUARANTEE?
I admit that the job guarantee was one of the main reasons that convinced me to choose the Ux design course with Careerfoundry. This is because it gave me the feeling that I would always have a final winning situation in the end, with either ending up having a job or having done the course for free. Besides being an effective and powerful marketing strategy from the schools, I think the job guarantee is also a great advantage for students who want to enrol in this type of course with the final goal to land a new job. However, from my personal experience, I feel the real purpose and advantage of doing a course with the job guarantee are to give to the students the confidence they are working in the right direction following a solid method that will provide them with the right skills and knowledge to get started to work in the field. Overall this gives a strong motivation and focuses on working till the end of the course. In conclusion, I would suggest students to consider the job guarantee more as a guarantee of the quality of the course, more than a way to have an exit strategy in case they won’t find a job.
Pros
-
Job warranty
-
Support from great tutor and mentor
-
Easy to connect with other students on Slack community
-
Final portfolio with 3 projects
-
Flexibility to study part-time or full time
Cons
-

-
Studying from home can feel alienating and lonely sometimes.

Choosing between different online bootcamps was a difficult process because there are so many, but I'm so beyond happy I went with my gut and chose CareerFoundry's UI Design Program. The curriculum is very well thought out and allows you to build upon your skills along the way, so many resources are given to you so you can really go above and beyond what is required. I also love how flexible the program is, its self paced so you can move as fast as you want through the material and can take days off when needed. The tutors and mentors I've worked with (and really everyone I've met at CareerFoundry) are so unbelievably helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. They really are there to support and help you and are willing to give you additional time and resources because they are so passionate about the space. I can't say enough great things about CareerFoundry! -

It's alright but a bit tedious and would work better as video instead of text/audio
Read more Read less of Maciej's review
So far I have learned a lot with the courses, but I must admit that it was a very short start and I often feel bored with the assignments. Some of the tasks are tedious and too simple and feel more like busy work than learning anything new. Of course it's understandable since people are at all different skill levels when they start, but the school would benefit maybe a little from being more flexible depending on previous knowledge of the student. Also, the school seems to concentrate only on XD/Sketch, but I think it would be useful for students to learn a little bit of other design software, such as Illustrator or InDesign.
Also, the majority of the learning process is reading long texts. They recently added a function in which there is audio of the text, but since they used computer AI instead of a real person reading it, there are many many mistakes in the audio. I think, the program would really benefit from switching to a video format. Especially since so much of what we are learning is visual.
