Learn at your own pace
The Data Analysis bootcamp offered by CareerFoundry will guide you through all the topics, but lets you learn at your own pace, which is great for people who have a full-time job or for those who want to dedicate 100% to the program. Tutors and Mentors are available either way, and are willing to assist you when needed.

Straightforward, educational, useful
I'm loving my careerfoundry marketing bootcamp. I love how you can go at your own pace, the work feels the challenging enough, and the tutors and mentors are easy to communicate with. I've learned a wide range of skills that'll apply to my marketing career and my mentor even thinks that the class is great. - Gabrielle HawkerStudent • Data Analytics Program • OnlineVerified by LinkedInAug 15, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Fascinating, engaging, and informative.
I've felt supported throughout the entire experience. The lessons are structured in a way that keep me interested and make it easy to retain the information given. The expected pacing is reasonable even for people working full time, and the opportunity to rush ahead or slow down at my own pace removes the stress of arbitrary deadlines that many other schools have.

Learning in a flexible online environment
I’m enjoying learning UX through CareerFoundry. The flexible model works really well for me since I can take a break if work/personal life is busy and make up for it when I have more time. Learning oline can be a bit lonely though especially when it involves tasks usually completed in teams like user research. I have found it helpful to go to mentor when I’m feeling lonely/unmotivated. The mentor/tutor model has been good. - Raul BrandCorporate Assistant Buyer • Student • Data Analytics Program • OnlineVerified by LinkedInJul 17, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

It's good that they provide examples of how certain tasks are done so I will have an idea o how to approach the task expected of me to do. However, they need to make sure that the demo examples are correct become there were a few that does not really match how the tasks are supposed to get done correctly and as students, we tend to model our work based on the examples given. Another thing to point out is the allotted time for each task. Sometimes, the time estimates given per task are not very realistic. They need to consider that not all students are the same, not everyone absorbs what they read quickly and not everyone has a set of technical skills to meet the timeframe. I remember doing a few tasks which says 4-6 hours but in reality, there is no way I can finish them at that rate, especially if I had to interview 3-5 people, arranging the interview alone takes time plus the amount of time you spend gathering and organising the data and making a presentation. Other than that, I am really enjoying this course, my mentor and tutor are really awesome. Mohit is very encouraging and helps me to push myself to finish my tasks on time. Rachel has always been amazing, very thorough with her feedback and you can tell they she is actually taking her time in assessing my work. I am learning so much and I hope I finish on time despite my struggles in juggling my time between work and studying. - Basavaraj HittinahalliStudent • UX Design Program • OnlineVerified by LinkedInJun 20, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

I would definitely recommend the course and CareerFoundry to my peers. - Wai Fan ZhongStudent • UX Design Program • OnlineVerified by LinkedInMay 26, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Works with any schedule
The reason why I chose to join to CF was because I can do my work anytime I have free time, I have been sending info request to a lot of schools but none of them works with my schedule, my tutor and mentor are helping me a lot with my study too. - Amy SenftlebenMarketing Art Director/Designer • Student • UI Design Program • OnlineVerified by LinkedInMay 12, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
I'm happy with my choice
I'm almost 4 months into my 9-month UI design course and I've been very impressed with the quality of the content and the student support. I have a great tutor and mentor who have been super supportive, and I feel like I'm learning a lot. I was looking for a course with great UX and UI—CareerFoundry practices what it teaches. I'm looking forward to the job placement support when I get to that point in the course. - Mrinmayee KulkarniGraphic Designer • Student • UX Design Program • OnlineVerified by LinkedInMay 12, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
