    Data Science Career Track

    I started Springboard's DSC track in June, 2020. Overall, I had good experience with it. The curriculum is very well designed. I definitely improved my data analytical skills after completion of the course.

    Great Curriculum and Community

    Going through Springboard was an incredible experience. The skills I've learned have prepared me completely for a full-time position as a Software Engineer and the mentorship provided was incredibly helpful. I'm very content with the result and for the price it's really no-brainer. That said, for those applying, make sure to start on algorithms and interview prep EARLY (first or second week). Doing that will help you pass technical interviews faster.

    Learned so much!

    I loved my experience at Springboard! I was able to work on 4 projects, one being an Industry Design Project and had the amazing help from my mentor (met with him on a weekly basis), career advisor and career coaches. Everyone was so helpful and provided insightful advice on how to break into this new career. The course curriculum is well set up in giving you the tools needed to succeed in this career. I chose them over General Assembly because of the cost and services offered. I highly ...

    UIUX Designer

    Overall I am satisfied with the course and would highly recommend to anyone. I have done the same course with General Assembly in the classroom and it is not even close to what Springboard has to offer. Yes, most of the curriculum is from other sources, but it is very well prepared and well explained. Other schools also use internet and other sources, so it is not a new thing. To me , it is definitely worth it as i am now making almost double from my old job.

    Great experience with Springboard

    I started the Springboard data scientist career track in Feb 2020, and finished the course in October 2020. I joined other Bootcamp last year but did not receive enough support. The entire program, including weekly 1:1 mentor, career support, office hour, and 2 capstone projects, is really amazing. I have a chance to work with experienced data scientists and learn from them. I highly recommend to anyone who is interested in starting their career or want to improve their technical skills....

    Good Immersion in Practice, but Theoretical Material is Absent.

    I was able to quickly become competent in the python-related related coding tools and practical methods for machine learning model development through Springboard. If this is all you need, I encourage you to use their product to help you achieve that.

    If however, you do not have a strong theoretical background in linear algebra, multivariable calculus, statistics, probability, and machine learning, you will not find that here. The program's initial screening criteria are permissiv...

    UX design career track

    I recently completed a UX design career track program through Springboard, and it was a great experience overall! I learned so much from the curriculum, but what was most helpful was having real projects to work on and then discuss with my mentor every week. I really value the time I had with my mentor and the way that it helped me gain confidence in the work I was doing. I will say, that it was difficult to do while working full time, but I really believe it was a good investment in my ...

    Springboard’s Machine Learning Engineering career track Is for real

    I recently completed the Machine Learning Engineering career track with Springboard and have reached all of the goals I set out to accomplish. I am very confident in my ability to use the tools of Machine Learning and develop automated solutions to accomplishAI tasks.

    One thing I can say is the course is very demanding and this is even having a background in software development of over 10 years. I do like to do things slowly, snd even though it took me a while to get ...

    Data Analytics Career Track

    One of the most cost effective Bootcamp for Data Analytics. The curriculum by large covers: Business Analysis, Statistics, Excel, SQL, Power BI, Tableau and Python in terms of technical skills. The content is mostly open source, however compiling the curriculum and putting together the content does the job well towards the Data Analytics Course material. The 1:1 mentor weekly helpful, I personally used all calls for discussing the projects and going through the submissions. There is unli...

    UX Career Track

    The UX Career Track is a great program for anyone interested to start / transition their career into UX.

    The platform is really smart and it has some features like "Study Plan" that make sure you go at the pace you are suppose to. 

    The mentor is a big perk, I like it better than having a professor because they are someone who you wanna be after a couple of years.They give you practical advice and it feels like you have your own personal tutor.
