Learned so much!
I loved my experience at Springboard! I was able to work on 4 projects, one being an Industry Design Project and had the amazing help from my mentor (met with him on a weekly basis), career advisor and career coaches. Everyone was so helpful and provided insightful advice on how to break into this new career. The course curriculum is well set up in giving you the tools needed to succeed in this career. I chose them over General Assembly because of the cost and services offered. I highly recommend Springboard and look forward to taking more courses from them!Overall5.0Curriculum5.0Job support5.0Instructors5.0 -

Overall I am satisfied with the course and would highly recommend to anyone. I have done the same course with General Assembly in the classroom and it is not even close to what Springboard has to offer. Yes, most of the curriculum is from other sources, but it is very well prepared and well explained. Other schools also use internet and other sources, so it is not a new thing. To me , it is definitely worth it as i am now making almost double from my old job.
Pros: Great curriculum that constantly gets updated, unlimited mentorship, career coaching
Cons: Not all mentors are great, some of them are not that much interested that you succeed. Because it is online you have to push yourself harder to succeed.Overall5.0Curriculum5.0Job support4.0Instructors4.0 -

Great experience with Springboard
I started the Springboard data scientist career track in Feb 2020, and finished the course in October 2020. I joined other Bootcamp last year but did not receive enough support. The entire program, including weekly 1:1 mentor, career support, office hour, and 2 capstone projects, is really amazing. I have a chance to work with experienced data scientists and learn from them. I highly recommend to anyone who is interested in starting their career or want to improve their technical skills.Overall5.0Curriculum5.0Job support5.0Instructors5.0 -
Sam FisherData Scientist · Data Science Career Track · Graduation year 2018
Good Immersion in Practice, but Theoretical Material is Absent.
I was able to quickly become competent in the python-related related coding tools and practical methods for machine learning model development through Springboard. If this is all you need, I encourage you to use their product to help you achieve that.
If however, you do not have a strong theoretical background in linear algebra, multivariable calculus, statistics, probability, and machine learning, you will not find that here. The program's initial screening criteria are permissive and are not sufficient to determine if you know enough theory to work as a professional data scientist. These mathematical skills are important to being able to read ML textbooks and research literature, and to understand ML techniques. I was disappointed by the lack of theoretical rigor in Springboard's data science career track but found resources to study these things elsewhere. After two additional years of part-time study (15 hr/week), I felt ready to work primarily in machine learning professionally and shifted my consulting work to focus on ML.
Be ready to learn to the math if you don't have the background, and for that effort to be completely orthogonal from your work in the bootcamp.Overall3.0Curriculum2.0Job support4.0Instructors4.0 -

I recently completed a UX design career track program through Springboard, and it was a great experience overall! I learned so much from the curriculum, but what was most helpful was having real projects to work on and then discuss with my mentor every week. I really value the time I had with my mentor and the way that it helped me gain confidence in the work I was doing. I will say, that it was difficult to do while working full time, but I really believe it was a good investment in my future as a UX designer/researcher!Overall5.0Curriculum4.0Job support4.0Instructors5.0 -

Springboard’s Machine Learning Engineering career track Is for real
I recently completed the Machine Learning Engineering career track with Springboard and have reached all of the goals I set out to accomplish. I am very confident in my ability to use the tools of Machine Learning and develop automated solutions to accomplishAI tasks.
One thing I can say is the course is very demanding and this is even having a background in software development of over 10 years. I do like to do things slowly, snd even though it took me a while to get through the 600 hours, I was able to find my first Machine Learning role while I was only at the 2/3 mark which for me already proved the course was legit.
I have actually begun my second Machine Learning role as I am completing the course and I was thankful throughout this pandemic that I could have the confidence that I would be able to find a job with the skills I picked up even in such volatile times.
Definitely recommend this course to anyone who knows they will put in the time.Overall5.0Curriculum5.0Job support5.0Instructors5.0 -

Data Analytics Career Track
One of the most cost effective Bootcamp for Data Analytics. The curriculum by large covers: Business Analysis, Statistics, Excel, SQL, Power BI, Tableau and Python in terms of technical skills. The content is mostly open source, however compiling the curriculum and putting together the content does the job well towards the Data Analytics Course material. The 1:1 mentor weekly helpful, I personally used all calls for discussing the projects and going through the submissions. There is unlimited tutor calls where I would typically discuss any queries. The career coach calls are informative and helpful. Springboard has dynamically done everything possible to support the learning through this bootcamp. The job guarantee is something that no other bootcamp offers and got me to signup for the course. If Springboard can align instructor lead weekend sessions then I would aswell consider to signup for Data Science Career track.Overall4.0Curriculum3.0Job support4.0Instructors4.0 -

UX Career Track
The UX Career Track is a great program for anyone interested to start / transition their career into UX.
The platform is really smart and it has some features like "Study Plan" that make sure you go at the pace you are suppose to.
The mentor is a big perk, I like it better than having a professor because they are someone who you wanna be after a couple of years.They give you practical advice and it feels like you have your own personal tutor.
Another big perk is that you get a career coach that will help you prepare well for the job hunt.
As a recent graduate, I feel confident to start my career as a UX Designer.Overall5.0Curriculum5.0Job support5.0Instructors5.0 -

UX Design Career Track
I was switching careers from architecture into UX design and saw that Springboard offered career assistance and decided to enroll after comparing similar courses. I made it a personal goal to finish in 5 months and had to worked many hours to complete the goal. I finished the course in September and I'm in the process of applying to jobs. So far, I think I made a good investment and hope to find a job soon. I found the curriculum good and easy to understand. I was a bit disappointment with my IDP (industry design project) placement as it was with a startup and everything kept changing, I would rather have interned with an established firm. What I liked most about the course was interacting with the career coaches since they helped me re-brand my LinkedIn profile. On the negative side, many students enrolled after the pandemic so my mentor had many students to look after, and I often felt that I needed more than the 30min per week to talk to them.Overall5.0Curriculum5.0Job support3.0Instructors4.0 -

Springboard gets you ready
Pros:- Well-conceived, robust, project-based curriculum taught by an excellent instructor (Colt Steele)
- 1 on 1 weekly personal mentorship from a legitimate industry expert (mine had been a dev for 20 years and has worked at Amazon for the past 5)
- Career curriculum paced well in tandem with the technical curriculum - they don't just teach you how to code; they teach you how to get a job
- Active Slack community of peers. Many people actually formed study groups and checked in with one another regularly
- TA's available weekdays for whenever you get stuck
- Priced very favorably vs competitors, offered multiple/flexible pricing options to fit your situation (now I just sound like I work for them lol)
Cons:- If you're not a self-starter or struggle with motivation, this may be a tough sell for you. The online community and the mentor support help with not feeling alone, but at the end of the day you still have to make yourself do the work.

UX Design Certificate Program
I just completed the UX Career Track program and I love it. I compared many other Bootcamp and finally chose this one. I am able to learn it while I have a full-time job along the whole process. The course has a capstone project that sits as the backbone of the overall curriculum. With each unit you complete, you add to your capstone project. This style gives you an immediate opportunity to apply the skills you learned during the unit and solidify the new knowledge. For me, it's been a really effective means of growing my skillset.
Pros :
- The course is self-paced which is exactly what I was looking for.
- Every student gets a mentor and you can book mentor calls as many as you want
- Very supportive student advisors.Overall5.0Curriculum5.0Job support5.0Instructors5.0 -

The best way to learn during COVID times
The online software engineering course from Springboard proved to be the ideal solution for me. Since I was still working full-time during the week, I needed an online course that would let you advance at your own pace while still being affordable. I think the way the course was laid out made it easy to advance from one topic to another, building upon previous lessons and not leaving gaps. I loved Colt Steele's teaching style! He knows how to break things down and explain them in a logical (and humorous) way. Springboard did a very good job matching me with my mentor. I was really able to connect with him and looked forward to our weekly meetings.
Overall, my experience was an A++ and I would recommend Springboard to anyone!Overall5.0Curriculum5.0Job support5.0Instructors5.0 -
Megan GawlikGraduate · UX Career Track · Graduated 2020
Love how it is project based, difficult with a full time job
Pros
-Thorough curriculum, walks you through the entire UX Design process from research to design to testing to iteration
-Weekly mentor calls to keep you on track and get guidance from a UX expert, you'll likely form a bond with this person
-Project based curriculum. I now have three case studies that I included in my brand new portfolio, all with the help of Springboard
-The industry design project is truly awesome. You get to work with a real company which is invaluable. Mine offered to have me continue working part-time after I finished the 4-week project, which it seems is pretty common from what I've heard. Some students I have seen get offered full time positions at their industry design project
-I worked full time alongside the course and so I was able to get a 2 month extension for free (so I did the course for 8 months total), I also got a couple of weeks off to catch up after a vacation (at no charge)
Cons
-It was a lot of work to do the course while working full time. It's possible, but it was definitely demanding. The course end date can be extended but you will have to pay extra, so since I didn't want to pay extra, I worked a lot to try to finish before the end of my 8 months, which I ended up doing.
-I was lucky enough to be able to pay upfront in order to save some money in the long run, but this course is definitely expensive. However, I think it is worth it
-I didn't like how a lot of the career coaches booked calls so far out in advance due to limited availability. I think Springboard recently hired more career coaches so that may be fixed, but while I was in the course availability was limitedOverall5.0Curriculum5.0Job support4.0Instructors5.0 -

Adrien SaremiPh.D. student · Data Science Career Track · Graduated 2020
A good educational program; can easily become great
Context: During my last year as a Ph.D. student, as I planned to pursue a career in data science, I decided to join the Data Science Career Track of the Springboard program. I was recommended by one of my Ph.D. student friends, who eventually successfully landed a good working position. I therefore decided to follow his footsteps.
Overall: I am quite satisfied with Springboard's program. I think it has formed me well to become a data scientist and to quickly land a job. However, I believe there are a few things they can still improve on.
Pros:- Overall Quality: the data science track definitely introduces and educates you well to the data science world, used in the industry. It covers most aspects of data science (wrangling, visualization, ML, ... ) and lets you acquire enough experience to land a job in that field. Of course, it won't replace extensive years of professional experience, but it is great way to bootstrap your data science career.
- Preparedness: I would argue that the data science track doesn't require advanced programming skills, but it is best to have some Python experience (the software overwhelmingly used in the course). If you don't (like me), the first few months can be a bit of a learning curve. You eventually pass that stage though.
- The Capstone Projects: the program is focused on two data science projects that you lead from start to finish. A great learning experience where you put your hands in the dirt, which you accomplish under the supervision of your mentor. These are great accomplishments you put in your portfolio and that you showcase to employers.
- Mentorship: Speaking of which, the supervision by your mentor is probably the greatest feature of the course (and why the price is a bit high). For those who need someone to look over their shoulder, it's definitely a great resource that helps you move forward in the course. The mentorship I received was great and from what I heard, bad experience with mentors is quite rare. Plus you can always change, if it gets really bad.
- Career: The career services they offer are equally useful. By helping you build your résumé, your LinkedIn profile, etc... Springboard helps you reach out and makes your profile more attractive to employers. The mock interviews you need to pass in order to complete the course are ideal reflections of real career situations.
- Flexibility: While it is not something obvious when you start, you can actually ask for pauses, freezes and extensions if you need more time to complete the curriculum, or if you dealing with too much stuff a time in your professional / personal life (I assume they don't openly advertise that because they prefer you to finish the certification in a reasonable amount of time). I personally extensively used those (mostly because of how busy I was with my Ph.D. work, specially when it came down to my thesis defense). I eventually completed the program in 12 months. However, I DO NOT recommend to do so within such a big time frame. 6-8 months is definitely reasonable if you allocate the proper time each week. If you trail like I did, Springboard eventually starts charging you for additional extensions.
Cons:- Rates: their rates are a bit high in my opinion and I believe it's mostly because of the number of resources they offer (mentors, career advisors, extensive curriculum, access to external resources like DataCamp). It's good to have that many resources, but in my opinion, some parts of the curriculum (maybe less than 10%) are useless or redundant. Therefore, I think the rates (assuming you avoid enrolling in paid extensions) could be 10% cheaper than what they currently are.
- Customer Service: this definitely has been the worst part of the whole program. I assume it's because Springboard has considerably increased its volume of students (across all tracks) but their personnel's size hasn't been able to keep up. While I always eventually obtained the information I requested, it takes a while to find and reach out to the proper person. First of, they only allow email communications. Then, their services are split between advisors, support team, finance team, etc... So if you ask for something to someone, they will most likely re-direct you to someone else. And the response time can be a few days. I don't expect every customer rep. to know everything and I assume it takes a while to train them, but it is quite frustrating when you can't get a straight answer immediately, specially for finance-related questions or for deadlines (when you need an answer fast).
