Students have access to a unique community of industry mentors, thought leaders, and alumni, who are on hand to offer insights, networking opportunities, and support throughout the program and well past graduation. Every Springboard student is matched with a personal student advisor and industry mentor who guides them throughout the program through regular video calls.
To apply, applicants fill out an online form, take an aptitude test, then talk with a school representative about their background and motivations. For the data science career track a background in statistics and/or programming is required.

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 a...
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 yo...
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...
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 experie...

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.

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.
