    A comprehensive UI Design Course!

    As someone working in the UX design field, I wanted to expand my skill set and learn more about UI (I already had some fundamental knowledge, but wanted a more of a deep-dive experience). The course gave me exactly what I expected. I also received a lot of feedback and support from my mentor and tutor -- this was extremely valuable for me!
    Since I wasn’t looking for a job, I didn’t take advantage of the career support offered on the course, but have no doubt that if I had, it would ha...

    From Data Science to UX Design

    The UX Design Program with CareerFoundry allowed me to successfully transition into the UX design field without any prior knowledge on UX.
    I’ve studied and worked in the data science field for many years before I decided that I want to change my career path where my creative and visual aspirations could be met. The career change process wasn’t easy for me, as I’ve already reached a certain seniority level in the data science field and starting from scratch in a new role meant not only...

    Really enjoyable entry into UI design!

    This was a really great starting point for someone completely new to UI design — like myself!

    By the end of the course I had a set of pixel-perfect mockups for a pretty sweet looking travel app. I worked predominantly with Sketch (but there was also the option to use Adobe XD).

    I think what made the course so good was the seamless interaction with my CareerFoundry mentor and tutor — they really gave a lot of valuable tips and feedback — but...

    UI Design Program

    My mentors were great and very helpful. I finished my program in 3 months when on average, it can take people a year. I really worked hard in it and I know I did a great job because I loved my projects and designs, and so did my mentors. I believe they even used some of my work as examples to show future students. I really enjoyed the program and the tasks since I come from a design background. The whole reason why I joined the program was because one of the employees told me that Career...

    An exceptional example of online learning done well

    I have worked for a number of years in higher education, and have been part of numerous online learning projects. From my perspective, the CareerFoundry program is astonishingly well curated and presented, and has been very effective for me in learning a large number of new skills in a relatively short time. The course is well supported by dedicated and experienced teachers who look closely at all of your work, and you are constantly receiving feedback to help you learn and improve. The ...

    UI course pushing you forward

    In the Careerfoundry UI Course, I was able to learn further than what I learned on UI online tutorials.

    I already know about UX, and it is filling exactly the gap I needed for changing careers. The course is well structured, and I have an amazing tutor and a wonderful mentor pushing me further to do better and better designs, taking me out of my comfort zone.  Besides, you are then also part of a very active and supportive tech community. 

    I could not recommend this course ...

    Intro to Data Analytics - Great introduction to the world of Data Analytics

    Data Analytics intro course has been brilliant, the exercises and tasks have been really useful, linked to the real world and work. The tutor’s support and feedback has been great as well. The intro course has given me a good overview of the components and processes included in the Data Analytics work.

    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...
