    An excellent program!

    This program is top-notch if you're looking to break into data science.  From technical skills to securing a new job, the course offers 360 degree support.  Although people of all skill levels will benefit, it is certainly helpful to have some background in programming and/or statistics.

    Springboard UX Design

    Springboard provided a very nice experience.
    The curriculum was very nice and thorough. It didn't include any exclusive sources that you wouldn't find anywhere else, but it was nicely structured in clear steps in order to understand how to solve the current problems that you might face and also use this in any work that might be needed.
    I would like some "exclusives" because it's a good investment.

    The mentorship was the highlight and it had a really ...

    Springboard UX Design

    I really enjoyed completing the UX Design Springboard course. I completed it while working full time, so it took me longer than I initially expected and had hoped. If you are thinking about completing the course, definitely consider how much time you will be able to dedicate to it each week. If you have other commitments, it will take a lot of dedication and self-motivation to complete the course. 

    In my opinion, the best thing about the course was getting to work one-on-one with...

    Springboard was just what I needed to get a job

    I started the UX Design Essentials course with Springboard with one goal in mind: to land a job in the field. I already had design and UX experience under my belt, but I was unable to get a job. This course provided a structured way for me to add solid work to my portfolio and taught me about UX processes I was unaware of. Having a mentor was great as I could ask her lots of questions and get valuable feedback on my work. In the end, as soon as I finished the course, I landed a job in the ...

    UX Design

    A course that steps you through all of the components of user experience design at a high level, but provides a tangible (capstone project) opportunity to apply the knowledge to actual work and practice the concepts. If you're completely new to the space (i.e. never used adobe illustrator or photoshop, built a website (such as squarespace, or just aren't used to sketching) be prepared to build in some extra time to learn new tools to be able to create your projects. I really enjoyed the me...

    Review of Data science career track by springboard

    The boot campt was a good learnig experince. The support from TA abd mentors was outstanding. Job search support from the career coahces is excellent. It provides a good foundation for the data science career, specially for students with academic background.

    There are some videos in the curriculum which can be difficult to follow. Springboard should have enough data now to create their own course material.

    A real mentor helps

    The course is well curated and you have access to DataCamp as well. A real mentor helps keep things on track. There are a lot of resources to help with the course, many I did not use as much (Office hours, advisor help). There is a lot of study material, but you can skip over some parts. Overall, a very helpful course.

    Mentorship + Projects

    Springboard's mentorship and project-based learning were crucial to my success. The ability to work on actual marketing projects with the help of an experienced marketer gave me the confidence to move forward in my career. I have since started doing freelance marketing consulting and am excited for my future career opportunities.

    Intermediate Data Science with Python

    Overall the course was an awesome experience. The course contains interactive coding courses through Datacamp.com. You are given a free memebership to DataCamp while you are enrolled in the course. There are also actual Harvard Comupter Science lectures provided for some of the machine learning topics. Something I didn't know going in, but was a nice suprise. Then, there are mini projects and your major capstone project. The projects can be challenging at times, but that is what it takes t...

    An Absolutely Worthwhile Investment

    Making a career shift into data science was one of the hardest decisions I had to make, but enrolling in Springboard's Data Science Career Track made it a decision that has paid dividends. Through the 6 month course, I was able to go from being a novice with knowledge of C-programming and some knowledge of Python to a fairly competent data scientist. Along the way, my career coach and personal mentor assessed my progress and made sure I was on the path toward success. With their help, I ha...
