    Great mentorship, curriculum is lacking.

    The Springboard UX/UI Design Career Track offers a mixed experience for aspiring designers. While the mentorship component stands out as a significant highlight, providing personalized guidance and encouragement, the overall structure and content of the course leave much to be desired.

    One major drawback is the lack of structured teaching for essential UX/UI tools like Figma. Students are expected to learn these programs on their own, which can be quite challenging without formal ...

    Everything was fine.

    Pros: overall is fine. 

    Cons:
    Would be better if NLP would be as an important topic, not optional. 

    A had Vishal Ratra instructor  who took a coding mock test, in my opinion, he was not a professional, as he did not want to answer to his own question, when I asked him. I believe, if you ask a question, you need to answer and show how to solve it if a person whom you ask doesn't know the answer or needs some guidance to answer it.

    Terribly run, rude staff

    Rude, condescending mentors, career coaches, student advisors, and other staff. They play favorites, are tribal, and really like people of their own continent and country. If you're a less favored minority, be prepared to get contempt, laziness, and rude treatment. They put themselves way above you, even if you're much better than they are. They can be incredibly unethical, and just oriented towards the bottom line. In fact, Springboard the company is like this. The course is poorly stru...

    Great courses

    Springboard is a really good bootcamp. The mentors and career coaches are great. My only complaint is that a lot of the course materials are links to websites that a person could access for free. But the access to industry professionals and career advisors makes up for that.

    Engaging and Difficult

    The UI/UX course was extremely engaging and properly difficult without making me want to give up. It was fun to learn all the new skills and new ways to apply general knowledge I had before this course. My mentor was very knowledgeable and not afraid to give me critiques when I needed it, which I always appreciated.

    Comprehensive Review of the Springboard UX/UI Course

    Embarking on my journey as a budding UX/UI designer, I enrolled in the Springboard UX/UI course, eager to augment my skill set and knowledge within the realm of design. Throughout the duration of the program, I found myself immersed in a meticulously structured curriculum that adeptly balanced theoretical underpinnings with practical application.

    A standout feature of the Springboard course is its unwavering focus on real-world projects. By engaging in a series of meti...

    Great program worth it

    This was a course that is built for the success of their students in mind. It’s comprehensive and does a great job introducing the world of data analytics from the beginning. I did enjoy that it even dived into mindset and how to think business-like.

    Great Curriculum

    This software engineering course was an incredible journey into the heart of web development. Covering HTML, CSS, and JavaScript provided a solid foundation, but my real highlights were diving into React for front-end magic and mastering Flask for server-side scripting. The course's emphasis on hands-on learning made it a fun experience. My mentors were knowledgeable, and the curriculum felt hard enough to know you are learning but not impossible to do if you set yourself to it.

    Springboard Cybersecurity Program

    My experience with Springboard has been great! I started my cyber course back in April and finished in December. It prepared me well for the IT industry and hands on training for the CompTIA Sec+ exam as well. I would recommend this course for anyone wanting to pursue a cybersecurity career!

    Good but could be better

    The curriculum is well done, and the Capstones allow for the student to really explore and get used to creating a data science project. I had a good mentor who was able to help me with the technical work and some of the logistics. The lack of required group work makes the course feel isolating and its hard to get a sense of how good you are relative to people in the same position since the only point of contact is a mentor who is established in the field.

    Good experience, not a magic switch

    Mentors and career coaches are great resources, but you will largely be teaching yourself the hard skills. I definitely feel very confident in my abilities, but finding work in the field can be very difficult even with this certificate.

    The Springboard Experience

    I absolutely loved Springboard. I am a new graduate. Everything from the mentors, career coaches, and the support team were there to guide me until I was finished. The curriculum is well suited for people who need a stepping stone into the IT/Cybersecurity field. I would definitely recommend this course.
