    Amazing!

    I have had the best experience with Career Foundry so far. I’m a French teacher and have no prior experience with coding, but I’m thrilled with everything I’ve been able to do so far. The curriculum is clear and easy to follow. My tutor and mentor are great and always helpful whenever I have questions or get confused. I haven’t yet gotten to the job search part but I feel very supported and encouraged. I’m so glad I took the plunge and signed up.

    Worth your money!

    I think if you are new to the UX design field, need flexible time to learn,  you must choose CareerFoundry because its course is very well structured. It consists of an intro UX course, a UX Immersive course, and a specialization course. After learning, you will be proud of yourself can do the UX design. Also, they have a great team to support you. You do not feel alone even though this is online learning.

    Worth the money!!!

    I'm taking the full UX course which includes an intro course, an Immersion course and a specialization course. I love how much they focus on the design process and drilling it in. I also love that you come out with multiple projects for your portfolio. 

    Some more things I love:
    • Lots of mentorship 
    • Video calls with mentors
    • Lots of freedom to design your own way
    • Constructive criticism

    UI design

    The course has a lot of really cool projects that really toss you into design. The curriculum readings are clear and pleasant, and cover a lot of material without too much reading time.

    Everything you need to know about the course with Careerfoundry

    I recently completed my UX design course with Careerfoundry (Get a 5% discount) and, I would like to share the answer to the 5 critical questions that I was looking for before I enrolled in the course. 

    • DO YOU NEED A BACKGROUND IN DESIGN TO DO THIS COURSE?

    • IS THIS COURSE WORTH SUCH INVESTMENT OF MONEY?

    • HOW IS THE COURSE IN PRACTICE?

    Career Foundry has an amazing UX Program

    I am currently in the UX Design Program at Career Foundry and I am very impressed with the program so far. I had never done UX before the program and I have learned so much since I started in December. The lessons are clear and well written and I have the best tutor and mentor to help me if I have any questions. Plus the courses are remote and can be taken from anywhere. I would highly recommend Career Foundry to anyone looking to learn new job skills!

    Student feedback

    I have really been enjoying taking the ui course with career flu dart. My mentor has been very helpful with tips and useful information for the real world. Both my mentors give me great feedback to improve my work. I do wish the online course had more videos for references and other useful tips. I’m a visual learning and I think more videos would be helpful

    Can't say enough great things about CarerFoundry!

    Choosing between different online bootcamps was a difficult process because there are so many, but I'm so beyond happy I went with my gut and chose CareerFoundry's UI Design Program. The curriculum is very well thought out and allows you to build upon your skills along the way, so many resources are given to you so you can really go above and beyond what is required. I also love how flexible the program is, its self paced so you can move as fast as you want through the material and can t...

    It's alright but a bit tedious and would work better as video instead of text/audio

    So far I have learned a lot with the courses, but I must admit that it was a very short start and I often feel bored with the assignments. Some of the tasks are tedious and too simple and feel more like busy work than learning anything new. Of course it's understandable since people are at all different skill levels when they start, but the school would benefit maybe a little from being more flexible depending on previous knowledge of the student. Also, the school seems to concentrate on...

    CF UI course 2021

    I’m currently passed half way of my course and I’m enjoying every bit of it! I’m a product manager so UI/UX isn’t new to me, but I still learn so much from the course so far.  The tutor call feature is super helpful, and it doesn’t have a limit on how many calls I can do. Can’t wait to give another update once I finished the course and see how the job placement goes!
