    UX Course

    The online school offers practical, market-ready knowledge in a fairly reasonable time. The mentors, tutors and other advisors are helpful to support students along the way.
    The overall curriculum is practical and straight-forward, although sometimes are a bit confusing, but does not block to make overall progress.
    The only drawback is that a student basically has to make progress alone, but once you learn how to do that you will find only benefits.

    CareerFoundry UX Program Review

    CareerFoundry has been very helpful in getting me acclimated to industry standard design practice. I do believe that what you put in is what you get out but the mentors, teachers and advisors are here to help you however they can. The slack channel is also helpful to connect with other students. I am appreciative of the help I’ve gotten throughout my course and I can’t wait to start applying and becoming a professional UX designer!

    Great Course!

    Currently enrolled in the UX Design course and so far it's been great!  You go at your own pace, but the program will also suggest how many tasks to submit to stay on track.  The content is broken down into parts and the tasks reflect what you just learned.  (There are some tasks that require participants / user input, so completing those may take longer if you have to coordinate availability with friends/family/people on the CF Slack community.)  Sometimes I feel like there could be mor...

    UX Introduction Course & UX Immersion Course

    Students sign up for the UX immersion course and are enrolled in the 4-week introduction course before they start the immersion course. The introduction course throws students into the entire UX design process so that students get an overview of the entire process before the immersion starts. The immersion program starts off very slow and picks up after going through the history of UX. The company promises a job guarantee, and there is some confusion about the details of the guarantee.

    UX Design Course

    I am attending UX Design Course at CareerFoundry. This a hands-on course based on learn-by-application approach. This course is separated in 3 parts, first is Intro, second Immersion and third is Specialisation, there is also mentorship and tutoring provided as well as vast student community. I am in Immersion part now and so far I am pretty pleased with it. 
    But, there is some room for improvement, here's what I've noticed:

    My Experience So Far…

    My experience at CareerFoundry has been good so far. Because this is an online course, it requires a lot of discipline, hard work from students, and can feel isolating.

    CF is very organized as course materials are easily accessible and follow. Exercises are simple, but sometimes too simple, where it doesn’t explain the subject well enough for you to fully understand.

    Not everything that you need to learn will be taught by CF, like design software, so you’ll have to learn on...

    CareerFoundry - UX Design Course Review

    Simply put, CareerFoundry's UX Design course is a great way to build a solid foundation in User Experience Design. Having recently graduated university with a degree unrelated to UX, I had a desire to learn the fundamentals and the CareerFoundry course has made me feel like I'm learning the necessary skills and becoming equipped with the tools needed to enter the industry.
