    UX Design Immersion Course

    Overall, it is a well-crafted introductory immersion into the world of UX design (after all, the real learning will come from doing it on the job). I just wish they offered a UX Writing specialization. Also, the instructors were hit or miss. I think some of them just copy-and-paste boilerplate feedback and don't really look at your work. One of mine seemed to have no awareness of what my assignments were or where I was in the course. But the curriculum is enough on its own, if you're com...

    UX Design

    CareerFoundry is one of the best UX/UI design programs online! The reason I chose it was mainly due to the time flexibility and opportunity for networking. They allow you to start whenever you're ready, and every student can go at their own pace. They give you a mentor, a tutor, another mentor for the job prep course, student advisors, and an entire Slack community so you can get to know other students. People also share a lot of resources there, especially for online job hunt/career-rel...

    Good choice

    It was a good choice but challenging. Thanks to this course, I could get not only knowledge for the professional UX design, but also train myself in terms of being disciples.

    One thing that I really want to tell is that tutor is not always good. I met Carlo J.C.M. van der Pluijm as my tutor. He looked down me and ignored my words. So I asked a student advisor to change my tutor and they changed my tutor, who is really nice and professional.

    Overall, I highly recommended thi...

    Without experience, a definite challenge!

    My time with Careerfoundry has been mainly positive. The structure of the overall course and transitions from each assignment (deliverable) is very organized and meaningful. Your assigned tutors are really a great resource to have. I will say that, as of today, about 80% done with the UX immersion course...I do not necessarily feel job ready. I do however feel I've gained a lot of valuable exposure and experience across many facets of UX and even UI. Yet I still personally feel I've got ...

    Now I can start my new career as UX & UI Designer!

    I can really recommend this course to everyone who wants to start a new career or maybe just wants to strengthen their existing skills. Personally I was new to every design themes and I didn't imagine to learn so much within such a short period of time. It's an intense course but on top to the skillset you get, it really helps you to start thinking as a designer and gives you enough confidence to start something new.

    Best decision!

    Career foundry has been a great decision, and my only regret is that I didn’t start sooner.  Help is always available whether it’s from your assigned tutor or mentor, and you can also reach out and even collaborate with other students to help get your assignments finished.  It feels like a real school environment, which I was a little worried about with working only online- but it’s been great in keeping me on track and motivated.  Would recommend!
