The program and curriculum are wonderful. In the beginning, you’re learning new terminology and concepts thus will feel overwhelmed but once you get adjusted to the business and technology lingo with the support that is provided by the mentors weekly study sessions, other students, and the curriculum, it makes the material understandable. From thinking with a business mindset, to Excel, Economics, Power BI, Tableau, SQL, and Python. Everything is covered, and more, to provide you with the knowledge to secure a position and to grow in the field. The platform that is used for our learning is wonderful and have never frozen on me and was available 24/7. The resources put in place to ensure your success and job placement is exceptional. I have secured a position with the assistance of the knowledge that I learned through Springboard, the career coaches, and the vast resources that are provided with the program.
My mentor, Chris Hui, is the best. He cares about your learning growth in the material and you as a person. I looked forward to our weekly meetings and I always leave motivated, reassured, and with more knowledge of the respective topic for the week. If anyone had any doubts about Springboard, please reconsider.Overall5.0Curriculum5.0Job support5.0Instructors5.0 -

My mentor and other staff connections were very helpful and informative. The content was easily digestible and I saw them continuously improving upon the program experience throughout the duration of my course. Springboard does a good job bringing the educational foundation to students and provides an opportunity to use that education in a real world setting (namely though the IDP). I had an abundance of support throughout my program, and felt as prepared as possible bringing what I learned to my current UX role which has been a successful journey.Overall4.0Curriculum4.0Job supportN/AInstructors4.0 -

I was stuck between Springboard Vs. Design lab when I was choosing which bootcamp to work with and decided on Springboard because they offered weekly mentorship, real life experience (industry project) you work with for 4 weeks, and excellent communication with the career help/advising. For anyone who is switching careers or looking to find a good program I would definitely recommend Springboard. I enjoyed the mentorship. The challenging part was to keep track of your time if you're working full time. I ended up quitting my job because it was too much for me and finished a little bit over a year. You also have to learn a lot of the tools on your own like Figma or your portfolio. Everything was intuitive and I enjoyed the process.

I need hand holding for the first Month or two so I can get comfortable and understand the concepts and be able to code on my own but instead I was left by myself and was unable to finish the projects and work which ultimately lead me having no choice but to drop out and owe a massive loan. Unless you already know how to code pretty well from front-end to back-end then I personally don't recommend this bootcamp. You're better off taking a Software Engineering course on Udemy. Lastly, this course doesn't provide any internship or professional experience and relies on you networking to find a job. Networking alone can only do so much as real world experience will be needed when it's time to interview. I've seen a lot of SpringBoard graduates on LinkedIn without jobs or it taking forever for them to find a job. There are so many cheaper and better software engineering courses out there that provide a greater value.Overall1.0Curriculum1.0Job support1.0Instructors1.0Dave Austin of Springboard
Springboard Advising Team

Hi Loulou,Thank you for taking the time to share about your experience, we are sorry to hear that the program did not meet your expectations. We set a high standard at Springboard to support students to a positive and successful learning experience, and we are truly sorry if that standard was not met while you were in the program.It sounds like you would have benefited from more live practice opportunities with industry professionals. In addition to weekly 30-minute calls with their assigned mentor, we also offer supplemental mentor calls that students can book on top of their regular weekly calls, live office hours twice per week hosted by one of our mentors, as well as virtual access to the TA's through live chat and Slack where students can seek professional feedback and support. If you were not aware of any of these resources, that's a miss on our part, and we sincerely apologize.With regards to whether students need prior coding experience to succeed in the program, we do have everyone take a Technical Skills Survey (TSS) at the time of their enrollment. The TSS is an assessment of each student's abilities in the different fundamentals of software engineering. For those who do not pass the TSS, we offer a Software Engineering Prep option that begins at square 1, covering foundational topics such as CSS, HTML, and JavaScript. Students are able to begin with the Prep material prior to advancing into the Core program through our 'Software Engineering Foundations to Core' track.Lastly, with regards to finding a job, we do offer extensive career search support to all of our students that includes, but is not limited to, networking strategies. Our extensive career curriculum helps students develop all the skills they need to land a job in the field, centered around 1:1 meetings with career coaches throughout the course, and especially after completion during the job search phase, where students work on updating their resumes and LinkedIn, writing cover letters, crafting elevator pitches, networking events and strategies, mock interview practice, and salary negotiation, among others. We aim to make our Career Services readily available to students whenever they need them, as we recognize this is one of the biggest factors that contributes to students landing jobs.Once again, we appreciate you sharing this feedback with us, Loulou, and we sincerely apologize if the high standards we set for supporting students were not met for you. If you are open to sharing more about how we could have done better, please feel free to contact advising@springboard.com and schedule a call with us.
Sincerely,
Dave Austin
