CareerFoundry

I want to take time to give thanks to CareerFoundry for their amazing feedback system, where they ensure you are always learning and make this an enjoyable experience. I’ve had a few personal struggles during the course and they’ve been able to look out and give me time to catch up in my own time.

I’m half way through the UI bootcamp course, and so far it’s been great! It’s straight to the point and very relevant to the real world work. I love my mentors and tutor, they have been really helpful. 

My journey into the world of UX design began a year ago, right after I wrapped up a concise yet invaluable Critical Thinking and Problem-solving course. My quest for a comprehensive and meticulously structured program consistently led me to the CareerFoundry platform. To dip my toes into the UX waters, I embarked on their introductory course, which further solidified my resolve to commit to their full-fledged UX Designer course.

One of the aspects that immediately drew me in was the course's self-paced nature, offering me flexibility in my learning journey. The course materials, brimming with depth and detail, have proven to be a wellspring of knowledge, making complex concepts remarkably accessible.

The UX Designer course is a testament to careful planning, with an emphasis on even the minutest of details. As I steadily progress through the course, I find myself growing in confidence and expertise.

I'd like to extend my sincere gratitude to my Tutor, Thania Soetandar, whose guidance has been invaluable, and my Mentor, Jia Liang, whose support has been unwavering throughout this transformative learning experience. Together, they've made this educational journey not just enlightening but also immensely rewarding.

CareerFoundry has been one of the best online learning experiences I've had so far. The material is presented in a clear, easy-to-follow format, while the content itself is broken down to the most minute detail. Even the most complicated concepts become easy to understand. The academic and professional support are great too. Coming from a completely different background, I needed lots of help throughout the course, and the CareerFoundry team was always there to get me through it. 

7k for a UI/UX course in today's job market is a joke. Most of the "mentors" clearly do not care and put forth the absolute bare minimum. Further, good luck getting a UI/UX job without experience. Don't waste your time and certainly don't waste your money. 

I decided to go with CareerFoundry' UX Design Bootcamp to learn and indulge in everything UX/UI. So far, I've been finding a great mix of happy learning, and challenges which is important so I can grasp and eventually apply these technicalities in real-life projects. The tutors and mentors are amazing and always so great at communicating their feedback to me, which is pivotal in my learning.

It has been a motivating and exciting journey for me so far in the Data Analytics boot camp with Career Foundry.  The course is exhaustive with hands on exercise at the end of each topic apart from a detailed project work after every major milestone.  With the constant reviews and feedback from experienced mentor and tutor, I've never felt lost.  I am looking forward for applying all my learnings in the real life scenario.

I was skeptical going into this bootcamp since I haven't been in school for 3 years. I have also never tried online learning before and wasn't sure if I was going to be able to hold myself accountable. Honestly, this is a really great program. Each exercise is informative and the assignments have a fool proof way of getting the details across that you need to include. If you're stuck, you have a tutor and a mentor you can reach out to for clarification. This process is going very smoothly for me and I'm so excited to apply everything I'm learning into my future career.

I choose this bootcamp beacause I wanted to be able to slow down when I am busy and accelerate when I am free.
Well, I am more than happy with the actual result. The lessons are clearly explained, with real world practical examples.
CarreerFoundry approach helps to master complex concepts by studiying alone, even if my tutor mentor and other students are also present to help. My tutor and mentor are great, they provide timely, regular and extremelly useful feedback after each exercise (tutor), or on demand (mentor). The ressources are organized and well strutured, this really helps to stay focused during your learning process.
Learning to program is not an easy task, but this bootcamp highly simplifies the process.

Currently taking the UX design course and I'm loving it, I feel like this course offers a lot of great resources and tools to get started in the industry. Mentor and career support CareerFoundry offers is awesome 

Having been a student on CareerFoundry’s UX course for the last 6 months, I’ve really enjoyed my time learning. The support from both my mentor and tutor has been great and the feedback has been useful, specific and supportive. I’ve been able to gain and practice design skills and gain an insight into the role of a UX designer. The tasks have been challenging but taught in bite-sized, easy to understand chunks so it’s never felt not do-able or overwhelming.
The one thing I would say is that it would be great if there was more integration between learning how to use different design software and the course content. Having learnt how to use software from scratch independently, it was initially challenging to both learn how to use these tools and learn with them, producing work that you can get valuable feedback on.

Don't waste your money on this bootcamp. There are many 
 free and low cost courses out there that offer better value than what this bootcamp has to offer. Poorly structured and almost non existent tutorship. It promises but does not deliver. The certification is useless when it comes to employment prospecting. In the end a waste of time and money. You are paying $6000 for a curriculum worth $60. 

i’m so happy that i found careerfoundry. my life has definitely changed for the better and i’ve met so many amazing people within the tech community. my mentor, tutor, career specialist, as well as the student advisors all helped me along the way for me to be the best i can be as a beginner in this new field of mine. I’m currently in the UI Design course and have started my job preparation portion and it has been amazing so far. i’ve learned so much and make mistakes but have been guided kindly towards the right direction. i recommend this to any and everyone who is wanting to look for a career change or just start a career period!

The courses are very gratifying to complete, and the amount of diverse ways to express your own interpretation of the data is endless. It can be difficult to comprehend at times, but it's even more satisfying when you get it right.

Career Foundry covers all bases; a tutor, a mentor, student advisors, and eventual job assistance. It's great for people working full-time but looking for a career change. All of the assignments are thought out and help to put what you learned into practice while letting you to make your own interpretation and apply your ideas to see what works and what doesn't.

It's been one of the worse experiences trying to reach Admin and getting a response. First of all, many of the features, functions and systems they advertised doesn't work. It's a go at-your-own-speed system, so if the customer service are not there, then mind as well watch youtube videos and learn for free. The Admin are nice and sounds like they care, but they never respond directly to the questions and try to avoid scheduling times to actually problem solve. Imagine signing up with a school that's a worse experience than studying at DMV. I would say the efficiency, clarity and care of the Admin here is half of the experience at DMV. 
Even Free Community Colleges, have better staff than the Admin here. And worse of all is the C Level position people don't seem to care or are unresponsive for problems that has been dragging for over a month. 

I am currently still a student here, but I will be graduating soon. I feel like it has been an overall positive experience so far, however, since I haven’t finished, I cannot give an objective review on the job assistance part of the program. It’s definitely more geared towards those who are better at self learning, but need just a little bit of extra guidance. 

Career Foundry is an online learning platform offering comprehensive courses in tech-related fields like web development, UX/UI design, and data analytics. It emphasizes project-based learning, provides personalized mentorship, and offers job placement assistance. However, it can be relatively expensive, has a limited course selection, and requires self-motivation for self-paced learning. Overall, it can be a valuable option for individuals seeking career transitions or skill enhancement in the tech industry. I have joined career foundry few months back. I was looking for career transition in Data Analytics. After researching so many bootcamps I came across to career foundry. It is self-paced program with flexible schedule. Mentorship is very helpful when you need any guidance and it provide tutor support also.

The course is good although it's a little basic. The tutors and mentors are all timely with the submissions. There is a lot of reading but it is manageable. I'm currently on the Python section and the only complaint I have is the long wait times to load the dataframes. Everything else is fine. 

The lessons all build towards your final project so you're not wasting time with any "needless" tasks. The go at your own pace style of the course is a HUGE plus. My husband did a synchronous bootcamp when he switched careers and it nearly killed both of us. Having the ability to work in your down time isone of my favorite features of the course. Mentor and tutor are fantastic.
