Just what I was looking for!
I’m about halfway through my studies and I’m already feeling more confident about my career shift. I’m totally new to Data Analytics, but the pacing and layout of CareerFoundry’s modules have helped me to stay organized and motivated to stay on track. Their tutors, mentors, and student community are indispensable resources—I feel connected to a wider community than I imagined I would be through virtual learning. I’m grateful to have found CareerFoundry as I prepare for my new career!Overall5.0Curriculum5.0Job support5.0Instructors5.0 -

I have been working my way through the UI Design course, and it has been wonderful so far. The amount of support and feedback I get from industry professionals really makes the price worth it.

Well structured, with good individual support
I love how well-structured the course is. Explaining creative ideation processes is not easy, but Career Foundry manages to cut all that in digestible pieces. I learned a lot the last weeks, but never felt totally overwhelmed. It really helps to have a tutor and a mentor, giving good advice and answering questions. That said, I won't deny that it's a lot of new stuff to learn. I sometimes struggle with the time constraints. But it's a boot camp after all, so You'll expect your brain to be filled with an abundance of input :)Overall4.0Curriculum4.0Job supportN/AInstructors5.0 -

UX Design Immersion
First thing you should know, this class is self-paced and does not teach in depth hard skills such as Figma, Adobe XD, etc. That being said, right away my mentor had me start practicing Figma skills and reading some supplementary books and other resources. I think my mentor is great and is very supportive and helpful. It is up to you to schedule your calls with the mentor so keep that in mind. I feel like the skills I am learning are building on each other very well and I would definitely recommend this course.Overall5.0Curriculum5.0Job support4.0Instructors5.0 -

Data Analytics Rocks!
I'm very impressed with all the assistance and guidance I have received in my journey to learn data analytics. My tutor helps with regular assignments and my mentor goes over my end of unit projects. They are both a wealth of help and information. This is all new me, with their help-I know I can do this!Overall5.0Curriculum5.0Job supportN/AInstructors5.0 -

Organized and Supportive Program
I have been on the UX/UI curriculum since September 2021 and have to say CareerFoundry has a very organized and supportive program. I’m a career changer and really appreciate the support of my mentor and tutor throughout this time. I find the tasks easy to understand and not overwhelming so a person who is new to the industry can still feel successful, although there are times I feel that certain tasks and learning require more time than they suggest.Overall5.0Curriculum5.0Job supportN/AInstructors5.0 -

CareerFoundry UX designer course
I am halfway into the UX course and loving the experience so far. The course itself is very fast paced and condensed in useful information, but at the same time well explained, specially for a person who is new in this field. The structure with help from the tutor and mentor is amazing, they are always willing to help, their feedback on each of my exercises submitted have always been timely, and encouragingl. I couldn’t be happier with my experience so far.Overall5.0Curriculum5.0Job support5.0Instructors5.0 -

UI Immersion
The whole experience was great, I picked up so many skills, was kept motivated throughout, learnt from my mentors and tutor and was able to go at my own pace. I've grown so much and am so thankful to CareerFoundry for this. UI Immersion, learnt UI in depth, alongside UX research methods and front-end specialization which really helped me stand out to employers with my own coded portfolio website. After about a year later starting the course I have accepted a job offer for Junior UI Designer.Overall5.0Curriculum5.0Job support5.0Instructors5.0 -
PhilipStudent · UX Design Program · Graduation year 2022
UX Design Bootcamp Chicago
My background is in theater and teaching and because of the pandemic I began exploring other avenues of work. Friends working in the tech industry suggested I look into UX Design and after reading "The Design of Everyday Things" I was hooked. It took a little time to choose (there are a lot of online bootcamps) but Career Foundry had amazing reviews as well as a job guarantee which really sold me on it.
I've loved the freedom to remote online learning. If you have the time and patience it's a wonderfully free way to learn. On top of that there are a lot of resources that Career Foundry offers to keep you engaged and not feeling so lonely. These include slack channels, meet ups, and most importantly mentors. My mentor is a working professional in the industry and I've learned so much from our weekly chats.
Beyond that the curriculum itself is robust and to the point. The goal is to practice what is preached and not read a thousand articles or listen to hours of lectures. Everyday I feel more and more prepared to speak and practice this new craft I'm learning. The only component missing in the curriculum is group work, I hear about how this job exists in the framework of a team but there's no chance to really feel what it means to work alongside coders, product managers, etc.
Lastly, I can't speak to the job assistance because I'm not there yet, but I have high hopes and confidence that Career Foundry will help me go the extra mile.Overall4.0Curriculum4.0Job supportN/AInstructors5.0 -

If you want to change your career and are looking for a course to take, check the CareerFoundry courses. A mentor and tutor motivate you to complete your program, and you can ask them any questions. You can also book an online meeting to discuss your progress. I recommend CareerFoundry as a career changer.Overall5.0Curriculum5.0Job support5.0Instructors5.0 -

Career Foundry has been unbelievable. In every way.
The support I received, the empathy and understanding I received from the entire team made the course achievable and enjoyable.
The ux design course covers everything and I am 100% certain that as a career changer moving from a completely different and unrelated field of hospitality Career Foundry has given me the tools I need to start a new life and new career.

The course was very informative and interactive at the same time, the curriculum is comprehensive. The content of each exercise was sufficient to complete the respective tasks. And personally I learned a lot of valuable information, I like the fact that I was able to put into practice everything I learned and that it was easy to understand because the content was organized and clear.
I’d definitely recommend this course to other people, not only because of everything I learned but also because the instructor and the CareerFoundry team was accesible and very helpful.Overall4.0Curriculum5.0Job support5.0Instructors5.0
