    Best decision of my life!

    I am still in the process of taking my course and I am so glad I chose CareerFoundry. I am 75% through and am so happy with the curriculum and the mentors and tutors. I feel supported, even when I need breaks. It's a very nice self paced course and I highly recommend it. I am taking the UX designer course!

    UI Design

    I just finished up my certificate in UI Design through CareerFoundry and have so many positive things to say about them.  My various tutors and mentors have all been phenomenal and so incredibly helpful.  I’ve learned so much from them in addition to the course.  The admin team at CareerFoundry has also been wonderful to work with.  They have answered any and all questions quickly and have freely offered assistance that goes above and beyond.  This entire team truly wants you to succeed and does all they can to support you.  I found the course to be so well organized, easy to follow and the information is all relevant to a career path in this industry.  The hands on component is how I learn best and each task is well planned in both timing and content to effectively teach you as you go.  I have been so impressed with this curriculum.

    Frontend Development for Designers

    As someone who has changed universities and majors multiple times trying to find the right fit I can safely say that career foundry has one of the best education systems out there. The curriculum is compact with easy to understand information, with exercises and tasks plus the mentor who is always there to help you with anything you need. 10/10

    Data Analytics Programm

    I just completed the Data Analytics Programm from Career Analytics and I have to say it’s been the greatest course I have ever done! 
    It gave me the opportunity to learn about a new field while building my own Portfolio for my professional career. 
    The Programm is very challenging but definitely worth it. I received a lot of support by my tutor and mentor who helped my completing the tasks at my best and supported me when I had difficulties with any assignment. The Student Advisors from CareerFoundry have been amazing as well! 
    I was falling a little bit behind due to personal reasons ( I was very busy with work and university) but they reached out to me and offered me an extension so that I would be able to complete the Programm at my own pace!
    Overall the entire team is very supporting and the Programm is definitely rewarding, I have learned a lot of things that I wouldn’t have learned at University. The Programm covers every possible topic and I appreciated that they also provide other resources in case you might want to research more about a specific topic on your own!

    CareerFoundry's UX Design course

    I've just completed a 10-month part-time UX Design course with CareerFoundry and although it's been tough at times, all in all it's been a great learning experience and I'm glad I went through with it! The course itself is well-structured and quite hands-on. It's made up of smaller reading tasks which you have to directly put to practice in an exercise. I found this very engaging and it kept me learning and thinking about UX even when I wasn't working on the course material.

    Transitioning from the visual arts to UX Design

    I'm halfway through my UX Design course, and I highly recommend it. I have learned a lot so far, and I am becoming more and more comfortable with the methodology that's required in UX Design. The tutor and instructor I work with are wonderful, and I really appreciate having regular video calls with someone that has a senior role in the field. The curriculum is clear, and you learn by doing, which is the best method for me.

    I was very positively surprised when I started the course. The level is quite high, and I continue to be amazed by how good the course is. It’s structure is very effective, easy to understand and follow, and still full of detail and knowledge! A big plus is also the tutor-mentor structure, I enjoy every Skype call I have with my mentor who is an industry professional to the fullest! Highly recommended!

    UX Design Course

    WOW! I have learned so much the last six months, that I don't even know where to start.
    Getting to know the fundamentals of UX Design through theory and also through practice, I really enjoyed every step of the way. In practice, I have learned how to make a digital prototype of an app idea, what the process is, what tools to use in order to make it, how to organize it and save time and ask for & receive feedback. I enjoyed it very much and am very thankful for the course and the mentor that supported me. Thank you very much! I would recommend it to anyone interested in starting a UX Design career! :-)

    UX Design Course - Great!

    This course has been very challenging from the beginning. The best thing is the tutors and my mentor who is always there and encourages me to go further.

    What I like the most is that it has a lot of additional information, videos and clear and organized information. 

    I recommend this school if you are looking for something practical and really to the point.

    UX Design program review

    I have been taking the UX Design bootcamp since October and I have been loving it. I was nervous about the career change and if I was up for the challenge but with CareerFoundry they made it easy and fun. Every chapter ends with a task which is great because you get to put what you learned in practice. The chapters are easy to understand and follow. The support I get from my mentor, tutor and student advisors is amazing. What I am also looking forward to is the job prep, where they help you find and get ready for a job after the bootcamp which a lot of other bootcamps do not do. I am excited to continue the program, time is passing fast and I could not be happier. I highly recommend this program for anyone wanting a career change or to add a new skill.

    UI Design

    I'm about halfway through the UI Design Course and really enjoying it so far. The course is completely online so you are able to create your own schedule, although the program is quite intense so you need to put in a lot of hours. I would definitely recommend it to someone who already has a background in design and experience with software programs. The program is really well laid out and easy to follow, also for people with no previous knowledge in design.

    Perfect learning through practice

    The course is perfectly tailored for a deep understanding of the subject. The concept of learning through practice helps students to experience the practical problems. There are plenty of resources to master the concepts. Best feedback and guide are offered. Syllabus matches the needs of the industry. I am happy to be at CarrerFoundry.
