    A Pretty Good UX Intro

    I went into Springboard not really knowing very much about uxer experience besides the random articles I parsed over, but I was looking for a career change in a field that still had a lot of design aspects. I chose Springboard mostly for budgeting reasons, but found out that I was liking the program once I started. I liked that I could go at my own pace and that my mentor was able to guide me through what I should more be focusing on with the strengths I already had. I really enjoyed doing...

    The course was great for beginner, very well structured and organised. You learn by doing and accomplishing tasks one by one. My drawback was not knowing much of the Design software to make graphics look more polished and professional. You learn the process of the UX design and what it entails. It is great for beginner level and as a pre cursor to more expensive options out there.

    Intro to Data Science was interactive and pushed me to learn more.

    Having a B.S. in Math reduced the learning curve for me to complete the content in the Introduction to Data Science course but the real challenge and fun came from the projects and interaction with my mentor and the community. Learning and research is not a solo effort and Springboard has designed their program around that. The weekly meetings with my mentor who was very knowledgeable and motivating pushed me to keep progressing on with my project and try new things that I never thought ab...

    Great online training program

    My overall experience with Springboard was great. The most powerful part is the weekly mentor calls and career coach service. When I got stuck in my project, my mentor showed me how to overcome the problem and what companies are looking for in real-life situations. He also provided great feenbacks on my projects and my questions on real data science life. The career coach sevice was excellent and of great help on strategies in expanding networks, improving resumes/cover letters...

    Very comprehensive and clear introduction to UX

    I really like the structure of the course and the assignments. You get to work on your own project so you are very passionate about this topic so you would put more work into it. I also enjoy the mentorship since you get feedback and you are expected to complete certain works each and every week. This is a very good medium between extremely hands-off approach where you don't have anyone to lead you and Bootcamp where you need to put 24/7 effort into it. I just only feel that the time allot...

    I learned so much!!

    I decided take the Springboard UX design course over three months and I learned so much! It's definitely a starting off point, as you complete one project during the course and most UX careers will inquire more experience and material in your portfolio. But I feel like I know enough now to dive into creating my own case studies and build my portfolio. During the course, I was able to keep up with the projects and curriculum while I was juggling other work related projects, which was a huge...

    UX Design

    The Springboard UX Design was a great experience.  My mentor was very helpful and worked with me on improving my capstone project.  The capstone projects are unique to the students.  They also have a pause option if you need  break. I would take another course from Springboard.

    Senior Graphic Designer

    Springboard has been great since day one, I still feel like part of the Springboard family even after graduating. Thanks to Springboard I was able to land a new job even before graduating just by putting it in my resume that I am soon to graduate.

    Not quite what I expected, but it got me a job!

    To start, I had no experience in UX design. My background was video (production/editing) and graphic design. I wanted to expand my skillset but not break the bank on those other courses so I chose Springboard.

    Pros:
    - My mentor, Sarah, was amazing. Her background in UX was mind blowing and gave great inputs on my projects and great advice on everything. 
    - The Capstone project was really cool to do, it pretty much built my portfolio and the mentor helps you along every ...

    Springboard UX Design review.

    I just completed the UX course on Springboard. I found the content excellent. There’s so much relevant material from Mobile UX to lean. All the projects I submitted were used for my capstone project for my portfolio. The community are so helpful and you can see other students work if you’re not sure how to go about a project. My mentor was a fantastic help. It’s such a privilege to get a call every week from an expert in the industry. My mentor Brent was very positive and has so much exper...
