    Great Program! Great Value!

    I did a lot of research before finally deciding on Springboard's UI/UX Design Career Track. The deciding factors for me were the flexibility of the self-paced curriculum, mini internship (industry design project), and the reasonable tuition.

    Overall, the program was paced well and covered a lot of material (both theory and practice). I finished the course with four projects on my portfolio website and tons of practical advice from career coaches (salary negotiation, portfolio/resu...

    A good prep

    Was a good prep course, just a quick taste of data science. Was a little light on code and too heavy on basic statistics. Would have prefered more statistical concepts and less math forumlas.

    Great program for self-motivated individuals

    The biggest pro for me was the self-paced, very independent curriculum. I was working full time when I started the program, so it was nice to be able to work through the curriculum at my own pace rather than having a set schedule.

    Weekly calls with a mentor are very helpful in checking up on progress and making sure any questions you have along the way get addressed. My mentor was very knowledgeable and thorough in his explanations of any questions I had.

    I found the projec...

    Former English Teacher, Humanities Undergrad, Now Employed in Data Role

    I enrolled in Springboard’s Data Analytics Career Track upon completing a two-year contract with Teach For America. I always had an interest in data but never felt confident in acting on it until I had to figure out my next step after teaching. I studied international relations and communication/writing in my undergraduate career so had no formal quantitative experience upon applying.  From the moment I applied to Springboard, everything was incredibly professional ...

    UX / UI Design Career Track

    Overall I had a very good experience with Springboard. Their curriculum is very thorough and provided a great knowledge base to work with in future careers and internships. Springboard provided a company through which I was able to start an internship that has the potential of turning into a future employment opportunity which has been really nice. My mentor was very helpful and provided great feedback in our weekly calls. The curriculum was a little light on the 'UI' portion of the UX /...

    Fantastic program!

    I just completed the Springboard course and have to say,  I have never made a better decision in my life! 9 months ago I was laid off from my service industry job, wondering what direction I wanted to take my life. Now, I have a full-time position as a UX/UI Designer making almost three times the amount I did previously. I use the skills that I acquired from Springboard daily (in addition to all the great resources they provide.) The curriculum is fantastic, the mentors are top-notch, an...

    Overall Great Program

    The data analytics career track was a great program. Overall the curriculum is well designed it is easy to keep track of your progress. I loved that it was a self-paced program, but that it needed to be completed within 6 months, kept more accountability on it. The 1:1 mentor component was why I chose this program, and it was definitely one of the key factors in making the program so valuable. Having a student advisor that you could also schedule meetings with and email was very helpful ...

    Data Analyst

    This was a really great course! I learned a lot about Advanced Excel Functions, Data Visualization, SQL and Python. The mentors were really helpful and provided unlimited mentor calls whenever you need help or are stuck on the course. I would recommend this course.

    Springboard was such a great investment into my future. The mentoring aspect of it was the most helpful for me. I really felt supported and empowered by the mentors, coaches, and staff, and got such high quality education and personalized feedback from them. I highly recommend Springboard for anyone looking to transition into UX design!
