CareerFoundry is an online bootcamp that offers flexibly paced programs for career changers in web development, UX design, UI design, product design, data analytics, digital marketing, and product management. Headquartered in Berlin but with a global student base, CareerFoundry has provided tech education since 2013.
CareerFoundry combines the flexibility of online learning with the guidance of mentors and tutors through their dual mentorship model, training students to become job-ready in four to 12 months, or their money back.
No previous experience is required to apply for the programs. Students should have access to a computer and an internet connection, and an interest in the topic they are planning to study. Students apply via the CareerFoundry website by connecting with an advisor who can talk through their options. Students will need to pay a deposit to secure their place, then complete the required pre-work before the program commences.
I recently completed CareerFoundry’s 6 month UI/UX course and received a job offer about 3 months afterwards. It enabled me to achieve my goal of changing my career trajectory. I was already working as a traditional graphic designer, but had been wanting to do more UX/UI work and CF helped make that a reality. I was so pleased from beginning to end.
The course is very well laid-out and paced appropriately. I worked hard, but was able to complete it while still working full time....
I recently completed CareerFoundry’s 6 month UI/UX course and received a job offer about 3 months afterwards. It enabled me to achieve my goal of changing my career trajectory. I was already working as a traditional graphic designer, but had been wanting to do more UX/UI work and CF helped make that a reality. I was so pleased from beginning to end.
The course is very well laid-out and paced appropriately. I worked hard, but was able to complete it while still working full time. Expect a minimum of 15hrs each week, more if you want to get the most out of it. It was worth every penny.
CF pairs you with 2 mentors, one who you work with weekly, and another who reviews your final unit assignments, of which there are about 6. This pairing works really well so that you get multiple viewpoints. They also have numerous active slack channels setup for student communication which really help if you take advantage of them. It was always great to get feedback from students around the globe. I live in New Jersey, USA, but often communicated with students on the opposite side of the globe. I also like that CF is constantly re-evaluating the course and making tweaks to improve it.
The tail end of the course is set up towards completing your online portfolio, which is really key. It is not an afterthought, or something you are left to do on your own. That alone is priceless. I went back and forth with each mentor honing it, along with my resume, until I felt it was “ready” to show to prospective employers. It paid off.
Once my portfolio was ready, CF has many job placement specialists who help you prepare and also have industry contacts. They were able to connect me with a few NYC firms and I was off and running.
I highly recommend CF! You will not regret it!
