I signed up for Springboard's Online Digital Marketing Career Track because after learning on my own for a while I decided it would be best to have some structure to my study. I can't be more satisfied with the support and guidance I received from Springboard. They helped me go from not knowing what digital marketing career path would be best to actually working in my first role as an entry level digital marketer.

My experience working with Springboard was very professional and I can tell they really care about making sure their students reach their goals. The mentors for the class are very knowledgeable about the industry and they are always willing to help.

I'm glad I made the jump in joining this program. It really helped me alot.

Because of my workload and travel schedule, I'm not able to commit to a full-time on-site Bootcamp style course. I needed something that offered a great curriculum and remote flexibility without feeling like a kite-in-the-wind. Springboard was able to offer that and provide real face-time access to experienced mentors.

I was able to do my work at my own pace and obtain feedback from professionals all the while. I would recommend this course to anyone who wants the Bootcamp experience but may not have the time or bandwidth to commit to a conventional course.

Everything can be learned from the internet, but personal teachers will always make a world of difference--especially since as students our ways of thinking and the mistakes we'll make will be unique.

Springboard makes it possible for you to learn from the best, while still being flexible enough for you to carry on with your current responsibilities.

Sprinboard's DataScience Career Track is designed to propell you into the fray with the skills to stand out among other data science professionals and a portfolio to prove it. The extremely personalized yet professional and hands on course equipped me to be able to break into the data science industry not only becuase of the course but the paramount insights I was able to gain from my mentor. I'm way ahead of my peers in school. It's worth every penny. Would recommend it to anyone regardless of their background , education or current skills. 

I am currently a student in the program of data science career track. I've been in the  program for around two months. I enjoy the curriculum a lot. It's very well structured. I can learn new skills and get strenghened by applying new skills to my capstone project immediately. I believe this is a very important and efficient way of boosting skills. I look forward to producing a nice portfolio after the course.

Mentorship is a very important part of the program. My mentor is very experienced and helpful in keeping me on track and motivated. Otherwise I might spending 80% of the time in getting 20% of result. 

Though I am not in the process of job hunt yet but I had several calls with career coaches.  My coach gave suggestions on how to network, how to prepare profile and resume. All the staff was very valuable to me. 

I believe that I will finally land my dream job.

Excellent certification! The combination of the curriculum with a mentor with advices in a real work place, made my learning complete! ... I highly recommend this certification?

Springboard has a practical, relevant, and project-based curriculum that I absolutely loved. I liked that the materials I learned were from industry experts, rather than purely theoretical. I also had excellent support from my mentor, Angelo, throughout the coursework and with my project. I am coming from a rather different industry, and he helped me learn a bunch of new tools that would be more relevant to UX.

For an area of improvement, I'd like to see more of an outflow process for graduates when it comes to the job search. For example, if certain graduates/mentors live in a certain area, I'd like to find a way to connect with them through Springboard, so that I could pursue the possibility of following up in person.

Other than that, I would highly recommend this program to any friends who are looking to get involved in UX, or to brush up on the fundamentals on their own time.

I highly recommend Springboard’s UX Design Course. I began the course as a graphic designer knowing little about UX but curious to expand my skills and open up career options. The course was well laid-out and spent just enough time on each area to get a quick but substantial overview of each module. You can buy UX books or read about UX online, but the mentorship that comes along with Springboard’s program is invaluable. My mentor had many years of UX experience and was always thoughtful and prepared to give feedback on my projects—his support throughout the program made the course worth the money. I loved that the course also offered “office hours” each week that featured a different topic centered around User Experience design, such as “careers” or “freelance,” where you could ask questions with experienced professionals. The extra online resources, like Lynda and Skillshare made it easy to watch videos related to design that weren’t covered by the course. I would highly recommend this course to those interested in moving into UX design.

This course has been an amazing experience for me. Most of the tutorial is from datacamp, but there are other things such as exercises, mini-projects, and capstone projects to prepare you for the real world problems. The mentors add more value and provide some really good insights. Also, this course can be done at your own pace. I managed to complete it in two months by spending almost 8 hours a day. 

I just wrapped up this course and I would highly recommend. The go-at-your-own-pace structure was perfect for my already busy schedule. I was even able to pause my learning to focus on a job transition and pick it back up right where I left off several weeks later. 

There's so much out there to read on your own and teach yourself, but it doesn't compare to having a specifically curated curriculum from current, working, UX professionals. The information if as relevant and gives you an all encompassing foundation of all that is UX. Not to mention, getting paired up with one of the aforementioned UX pros as a personal mentor through the entirety of the course. 

Again, highly recommend, and I absolutely loved this course. 

*NOTE*

I rated Job Assistance w/ a 3/5 because I personally did not require any and therefore, did not discuss at all with my mentor.

springboard has amazing business analyst course. 

I’ve worked in the design industry for 15 years but lacked formal training in User Experience. When searching for a new job, I found most employers were looking for an all-encompassing designer with UX experience, so I decided to try Springboard. This course was very easy to follow and you can go at your own pace. The curiculum builds you up to a Capstone project, which takes everything you’ve learned along the way into one inclusive project for your portfolio. You’re also paired up with a mentor for weekly check-ins and to discuss your projects along the way - I found this to be one of the most beneficial features of the course. Lastly, they also offer career assistance if you’re not currently working. I highly recommend Springboard for those also wanting to get formal UX training under their belt.

Overall my experience with the UX Course and Springboard was amazing. I only had 3 months to finish the course on my end and it was hard to juggle work, life and the course but I enjoyed every minute of it. Lots of course material to go throught but all of it was valuable.

The best aspect of this course I'd have to say is the mentor. Having someone to reach out to and to chat with about the course and the projects throughout the course was very helpful. Not to mention the experience they have and being able to pick their brain about how they deal with things day to day in the UX world.

The course aside I'd like to also thank everyone from springboard. If I need an answer I got one and they were very quick to respond to any questions I had. Having that support made things very easy.

My last note would be to anyone thinking of trying the course. Its a lot of work but a great experience for anyone trying to learn more about UX Design. I'd recommend it to anyone.

Very good curriculum. Healthy amounts of machine learning and statistical inference. Statistical inference is very important for data science. It was not a part of the Foundations of Data Science from Springboard course. So, I am happy it was included here. Lots of material is from datacamp. Finishing many datacamp certificates will help you with this course. Good experience with the mentor. As always, comprehensive capstone project helps you utilize everything you learnt in a real world setting. Mentor gave many important inputs for finishing capstone. I definitely recommend this course for anyone trying to become a data scientist.

PS: I did the course fulltime so was able to get into the material in-depth. It maybe a bit challenging to do it part-time. So, if you do part-time and skip some material, make sure to go back to the curriculum and complete it when you have time. 

I have just completed the curriculum of Data Science Career Track. I found it very helpful to me to achieve the skill set to become a data scientist. I get to know Data Science from Springboard's Foundation of Data Science course. After that I enrolled in this course. Now I have finished three capstone projects.

The courses are very well organized and the Mentor is very helpful. I get feedbacks about my questions, projects, job search strategies quickly. Because this is a self-motivated and self paced course, it fit my requirment and arrangement well. My Mentor is very encouraging and professional, I think I can't make all the progress and complete the course without his help.

Even though I read a lot about UX design through websites it was difficult to understand how to deal with a full project and that why I subscribed into Springboard.
I highly recommend Springboard to anyone who looking for great UX Design course, the curriculum is comprehensive and you'll have a friendly experienced mentor who will encourage you throughout the course.

Loved participating and Graduating from SpringBoard's UX design course. 

I'm a working graphic designer - the way SpringBoard set up their course is for working individuals to continue their education.  SpringBoard is unique because of their large online community  and mentor's they have available to assist you throughout your course.  I was very thankful for my mentor (shout out Sandy!!) because she was challenging and offered amazing constructive feedback. 

My experience with springboard offer's an amazing foundation to continue learning about the entire UX platform and now I have an idea of what avenue I will continue with!! 

Thank you again, Springboard! 

I just completed the UX Design course. I chose Springboard after quite a bit of research into other online certificate programs because you can work at your own pace, which is a big plus for me, and this makes it more affordable if you finish sooner. The mentors were good and the curriculum gives you a good foundation in UX. Also, they contribute quality material to the community at large via things like their "office hours" videos which are free on YouTube.

After completing the course, I have a solid portfolio piece, and enough knowledge to set out on my own looking for jobs and projects. My mentor, Emily Holmes, was great.

Overall quite satisfied. 

I recently (June 2017) completed the Springboard UX Design course. It was a great experience! I really enjoyed my weekly mentor call. It was super helpful to get feedback from a professional working in the field. 

The projects were fun and allowed me to learn in my own way. I've tried other online courses and this is by far the best UX course I've experienced!

I only have positive things to say about the data science intensive curriculum, my mentor and everyone at Springboard. I have had the best experience and I would do it all again in the future if I had the chance to do something that would boost my skill set. For anyone considering Springboard, the Data Science Intensive curriculum is the best course out there in the field of Data Science and prepares you completely for the industry. No other courses can compare to the quality of this course and the learning it offers. Mentor-led style of learning works best for someone who wants to enter this field and is by far he best way to learn everything about this dynamic field. The support-structure provided my Springboard, right from the student advisor to your mentor, is amazing and Springboard gives it's all for you to go out there and be successful. The perks of the slack community, career resources, office hours, capstone presentation as well as the electives offered in the curriculum make this certification totally worth it and makes it stand out from the rest. Finally, the mentors are some of the most passionate and the most knowledgeable people in the field of Data Science working for the biggest companies in the world, which provides you with an unique opportunity to network and learn from the best.

Springboard was a fantastic course with a multitude of resources and also a step-by-step structure which truly helped you understand the UX process. But where Springboard really shines is the mentorship you receive from your 1-on-1 calls. I would highly recommend this course to anyone as you will take away from it solid skills and a mentor for life!

I decided to transition into a career in Data Science and began with the Foundations of Data Science course from Springboard.  I learned a lot, and the weekly mentor calls were very helpful.  I definitely recommend the course.

Look all my money and matched me with a mentor who has a lot of ego, who cares if he works for facebook...

They dont know how to deal with students in a cordial way, I will not recommend this to anyone who is serious about learning Datascience, you can find their course on youtube for free

I took the Springboard UX course early in 2017 when I had gotten laid off unexpectedly. I had planned to take it, but it just gave me a bit more time to focus on the course and since it was a pay by the month situation, I figured it was a really good time to dive in. The course itself is quite thorough in a lot of ways. I have a graphic design background, but you really don't need any background to go through it. Since I had read some books, did some reading online and took a few high-level UX courses, it was a bit easier at the start for me than maybe it would be for others. I enjoyed the set your own pace aspect and devoted 4-5 hours a day toward it, but it could easily be worked on part-time and be effective. I do think that the more immersed in the hands-on work you get, the better understanding you'll have. I found the projects and the mentor sessions to be arguably more valuable than some of the articles and videos you watch, but it's partially because I learn better by doing than observing. Overall, I really enjoyed the learning and came out of the course with a good portfolio piece as well as a solid understanding of how to do UX generally. I didn't utilize the job search assistance because I was able to get another graphic design job before I finished the course. I think if you go through the course you might be able to get an entry-level UX job if you did a solid job of thinking about your portfolio as you went through the course, otherwise, expect some work at the end to make your work presentable to prospective employers. I suggest Springboard for anyone who likes to get through a bootcamp fairly quickly and in the comfort of your own home.

The curriculum was comprehensive and having a mentor was extremely beneficial.
