    Fantastic mentorship and support with engaging capstone project and mini-projects.

    Overall great experience and learned a lot. The pros far outweigh the cons, but I want a balanced review so I pushed to write up both.

    Pros:
    Support. Best support of any program I've enrolled in. Hands down.

    Mentorship. So helpful when you're stuck on something that's not easy to just Google. Also great to just get general direction, career advice, etc. You don't know what you don't know, but they do! Use them!

    Projects. Some of...

    Great Program, Great Mentor

    I really enjoyed the program, and the mentor helped a lot during the whole time! I had an educational background in data science but I never had practical/industrial experiences before. Springboard's boot camp prepared me to be job-ready. Highly recommended for anyone who needs to gain experience as a real data scientist.

    Great structured program, works around your schedule!

    Overall I've been very happy with the Springboard UX Design Career intensive! For the price it is a very thoughtfully structured and paced program to get theoretical and practical experience in this space, along with a lot of good person-to-person interaction.

    Pros:
    Works around your schedule - I was able to balance part time work + home life with this program
    Dedicated mentor in UX space offering weekly and on demand feedback
    Intelligently structured and organized - unit...

    At the point I decided to continue my career in the domain of Artificial Intelligence and Big data, I wasn't exactly sure what program would be suitable for me to kick start this transition. After some research I came across springboard and upon examination of the curriculum I knew it was the one.

    Pros:
    1:1 mentorship was incredible, I had 2 mentors during the course of my program. First was a senior data scientist and second was an entrepreneur building a big data ...

    Springboard builds me up so quickly and confidently!

    The UI/UX Career Track at Springboard is a 9 months part time course but allows you to do it at your own pace, and I've done it full-time in 3 months! The curriculum is abundant and in-depth. It builds you up step by step from a complete beginner (I'm from a HR background) to a junior designer with solid design knowledge and skills. The mentorship is definitely the most valuable part of the career track, as feedback and advice from an industry expert is 10 times more useful than working ...

    Springboard UX Career Track

    The UX Design Career Track at Springboard is a great stepping stone for a career in user experience. 

    One of the biggest benefits of the Springboard curriculum is having a mentor to help and guide you through the entire course and provide valuable feedback on along the way. The course load can a be a bit overwhelming at times if also working full-time while trying to complete it in the 6-month timeline given. Be sure to factor in extra the enxtension if this is the case. Having th...

    UX Design Career Track

    I did my UX Design Career track at Springboard. My background is in Motion Design so I did not have much background in UX design. The curriculum was to the point and covered all the important information needed to start me on my career path. The mentoring program was very useful and my mentor went above and beyond to answer all my questions and concerns about all topics. The career help with resume, LinkedIn, interviewing skills and portfolio design were also very helpful.

    Data Science Career Track

    Joining Springboard was the best decision I ever made. It has a well structured curriculum and you are guided by the mentors and the career coaches in every step of the way. You need to be at a certain threshold with coding, statistics and Data science to get the most of this boot camp. The curriculum has to be followed up with research and self learning.

    Great Experience

    The Data Science Career Track Bootcamp offered a comprehensive curriculum, which covers a wide range of topics in Data Science. The mentor system is also very useful. Capstone projects provide a unique experience similar to building a data science project from a problem statement to a final product. The only con I would mention is the specialization is a one-time choice. It would be great if they could offer a 1-week or so review period to make that decision.

    Great Foundation and Application to UX

    From the mentors to the progression of course content, I felt Springboard was the best camp I could've selected to learn the essentials of UX and product design. What made the course so great was its see-then-do approach to learning, where you would learn course material in the units before directly applying them to your capstone project. It is also a case of getting out what you put in where Springboard and the mentors give each student all of the tools necessary to be great and it's up...
