    Strong foundations and good resources

    Quick rundown of where I am in the course: the UX Design program has an Intro, Immersion, Specialization and Job Prep (required for the job guarantee) course that is part of the entire curriculum. Right now, I've finished the Intro and Immersion course already and applying to internships, so I can't give you an accurate gauge on how well the course prepares you for a job, but I can say that the course teaches you very thoroughly the things you need to know, and the work you are asked to ...

    Informative and Thorough Courses

    This program has helped me so much! The tasks and achievements are so informative and are up to industry standards. I learnt how to use Figma and Adobe XD very easily thanks to instructions and tutorials I was provided with. I really feel like this course is equivalent to having a UI/UX degree with the amount that I learnt.

    CareerFoundry UI design course

    I love my course, theres a lot of information and every task is so clear and full of very valuable content and extra readings in case you want to sumerge more in deep about the topic, I can't say anything bad, just what I've been feeling is that my tutor everytime I submit a task she doesn't take too much time to review it or I feel like she just approves everything I submit and a part of me feels good but the other is like Wait! am I really doing everything that good that I don't have t...

    Worth every penny - LOVE IT!

    I am studying the Data Analytics course with no prior exposure or experience in Tech and I have found the course to be so informative and easy to understand. Each student has access to a tutor (who you can bombard with as many questions if you don't understand a concept) and a mentor, who helps you prepare for the industry. The support and course curriculum is well-rounded and project based - making you as job ready as you'll ever need.

    Learning a lot

    I’m very satisfied with my experience in CareerFoundry’s Full-Stack Development bootcamp. I’m learning a lot!  My mentor, tutor, the advisors and other staff have been encouraging and helpful.  The curriculum does a great job of providing resources for all types of learners, like text, graphics, code examples, videos, practice projects, and real humans to reach out to.
    It’s a lot of new information, as a career changer, but I’m really happy with my decision to enroll with CF!

    CareerFoundry meets my needs as a parent who is making a transition in a career. Fully online and self-paced. Compared to other bootcamps I researched, the cost to go to CareerFoundry is one of the lowest. One thing I have enjoyed the most is the Student Advisor team. All-around, a great option!

    Just What I Was Looking For

    My experience was positive from day one. I signed up for the UX program, and I like that I could complete the work at my own pace. With the flexibility of my previous job, I was able to make a full-time commitment to the course work and finish in six months! The content and assignments were chunked into easy, digestible parts, and I appreciate the thoroughness of the assignments because I anticipated graduating with a full portfolio. Having access to a supportive tutor with quick respons...
