    Springboard is great for career pivots!

    I highly recommend Springboard's Data Science Career Track for anyone who is looking to pivot careers into data science. I learned a lot through my mentors and connecting with other students. The staff at Springboard are extremely dedicated to their students and do all they can to help you prepare for networking, interviewing, and eventually being a successful data scientist.  The curriculum is largely datacamp courses, but you are also required to complete 2 capstone projects. This is whe...

    Data Science

    My Experience with Springboard .

    I joined the springboard course in the month of Aug,2019 and I left/discontinued the course in the month of Jan,2020

    It’s not worth at all, simply i can say waste of your hard earned money and waste of time as well.

    So called mentors will be not available as per the schedules and they don’t spend much time with the students in explaining their doubts or explaining the concept.

    Next coming to so called...

    Great Mentorship makes the coursework alive

    I was already working in digital marketing but I wasn't getting the type of training that I hoped and I really wanted to accelerate my career. I got paired with a great mentor that really help me dive deeper into the coursework and bring it into the real world. I took alot from the course that helped me become more successful at work and helped me bring my career to the next level.

    Good way to get into data science field

    I had a good experience taking this course...the curriculum was well structured and organized and was tied to the completion of a final project. There were weekly 30 minute calls with a mentor who helped you with your questions on the curriculum and the project...the calls were also used to plan strategy and stay on top of things ... Overall the content of the course was very good... obviously there is a ton of things going on in data science, and the course material does not provide an in-de...

    Zero to Here

     

    This program guided me in creating a strong process to follow with UX design. I really have had a transformational year that started with this program. I went from having no idea what to do with my life, to getting my first app design client one month into the program, to now working for a large AI company. My income went from about $5k a year doing random web projects to $10k a MONTH. It's really put a whole new level of direction in my life. I can't say that was to the progra...

    Digital Marketing Career Track

    The Digital Marketing Career Track by Springboard is a curriculum that teaches you a general level of full stack marketing where they use blogs from real marketers as course material. You go through projects at the end of every module using a specific technical tool like Google Analytics or Facebook Ads. At the end, you can complete one big capstone project to demonstrate a specific digital marketing skill you want to develop on. I did two. One was doing a product marketing capstone where ...

    An amazing experience

    I've done a lot of schooling, but nothing like Springboard before. I felt supported in every way. There were times I had imposter syndrome, and whether it was my mentor, or my career coach or other students, I felt like I could see this course through. This course is worth every penny. I feel extremely prepared. The support team is amazing and will help you in every step to be successful.

    Amazing one-to-one mentor program

    Springboard offers a deep understanding of Machine Learning techniques with good introduction to the mathematical background of it. Their mentor program is the selling point of this course, as you get one mentor who will coach you through the curriculum and helps on the capstone project. I recommend this course to anyone who already has a some background of ML and AI algorithms but wants to deep dive into the details and build its first end-to-end solution.

    End-to-end Capstone projects

    One thing I like about Springboard's UX course is the capstone project. As a UX designer, you need a portfolio to demonstrate projects and very few bootcamps emphasize that in their curriculum. I also like the weekly mentor call. My mentor is very encouraging and very insightful, and I feel that I can ask any questions and not afraid of being criticized. I highly recommend this program to anyone who is interested in UX design.

    Excellent Intensive UX Immersive Experience

    The Springboard UX Career Track was an excellent program and a great experience. I came out of it with a well-rounded, high-level education in UX best practices, and a decent portfolio with three case studies. The content is well-curated, and all the mentors I worked with were high-caliber experts in the field. The online community is helpful and students are very open to helping one another. I would highly recommended this program.

    However, there were a few downsides:

    Intermediate DataScience Python Review

    This course will push you to learn the techniques you have been trying to learn. Its really reach and starts from basics of datamanipulation to inferential stats to machine learning. If you do this sincerely, you are sure to get medium expertise atleast in python for data science. My skills are definitely elevated.
