    Springboard's Data Science boot camp

    I'd like to share my experience with Springboard's Data Science boot camp. It was truly an unforgettable journey. While most of the learning material is readily available online, like on YouTube or DataCamp, what set Springboard apart was its structured program and well-designed projects. Additionally, having a mentor who offered valuable guidance and support throughout the course made a significant difference in my learning journey
