    UX Design - Comprehensive and great content

    I had a great experience in the Springboard UX Design course. The content was comprehensive and diverse. The weekly mentor meetings were helpful in getting real world perspective on questions. The course work was not too hard to complete given the fact that I am a full time worker and traveled often during my time at Springboard. I would absolutely recommend the UX design course to anyone looking to learn a new skill set and/or begin a new career.

    Springboard Data Science Career Track Review

    Overall a very strong course that teaches you the many different facets of Data Science. As someone who was very new to computer science, I felt the course was well balanced and not too overwhelming though difficult at points. The Capstone Projects were key in me putting all of this knowledge together and really understanding the data science process. Both my normal mentor and career mentor were very helpful throughout the course and I would recommend it for anyone looking into a change in...

    Look closely at this one

    (I wrote a review on another site about Springboard using the same title as this review - rather than just copy/paste, I'll start again from scratch here. If it seems fishy to you that they have the exact same title and similar themes, it's because they were written by the exact same dude.)

    Do a lot of research into which bootcamp is the best for you. Springboard will be at or near the top of your list. It's everything that you need, without a bunch of stuff that you don't.

    UX essentials

    What I really liked about the Curriculum is that it started out with a general overview of the discipline. It really helped me understand the big picture first and then zoom in on details and learn more specific information about the field without feeling overwhelmed. The support from the Springboard team was outstanding. Responsive, knowledgable and very helpful. I think the course could cover a little more on developers side of UX but I communicated that and I am certain that it will be ...

    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.
