    One of my best Decision

    CareerFoundry is one of the best decisions I've made in a long time. From course work and the way, my Mentor and Tutor treated and correct my course work inspired me to do better and Job Prep make me feel more and more prepared for the field of UI as I get through the course.

    My CareerFoundry Review

    So far, my experience has been great! I would gladly recommend CareerFoundry to anyone who wants to study UX Design. The learning material is thorough and well explained, the community is diverse and I've got great support from my tutor and mentor. I couldn't have asked for more!

    Ux Design Course Review

    During my 5 months online studies, i really like the course material and learned so much. However i think there is a room to improve. Here are some suggestions;

    - Tutors acting like AI. It’s nice to have them but there is no personal connection. We never have a video call with them. Their reviews feel like standard templates. This made me feel distant my self from the person and i’ve never ask any questions or replied their email.

    - Sometimes i felt lost during my course, a...

    Best decision I’ve made

    This course so far has been amazing. I didn’t have high hopes going in, mainly due to my past experience with online courses. Careerfoundry managed to exceed them all. Learning experience is easy, simple and enjoyable. I get constant support from my tutor and mentor and have my questions answered. I’m also very happy for the job preparation course. Have been enjoying it a lot so far

    A new career is coming

    Highly recommend. Thanks to CF I’ll start a new career in a field that I have never heard before. I can work part time, table care of my daughter and study in the meantime. I like it! I’m learning so many new things and I can  easily manage my free time. What to say? The best choice

    UX Design Certificate

    The CareerFoundry Bootcamp has been a great experience.
     I succeeded in finding a job as a UX designer 2 months after completing the last course.
     
     During the course, I learned a lot about UX Design, UI Design, and UX Research. I still use the course content for my daily business. My instructors have been supportive and experienced but I felt like the personal connection has been missing. My tutor doesn't even answer me anymore.

    UI Design

    CareerFoundry was the best online learning experience I've had. The platform was easy to navigate and assisted in being able to focus on the content rather than how to use the classroom. The mentors/tutors I was assigned were great to work with, and always very informative and encouraging. I have, and will continue to, recommend CareerFoundry to friends and colleagues looking to improve their design skillset or make a career change. It has been a life changing experience for me that I am...

    Data Analytics Course

    Very informative material with detailed step-by-step instructions in every exercise. I'm switching my career, so such detailed explanations on the material being studied is very important for me. Before enrolling, I've drilled through 10+ online schools and courses, looking for what they offer and CareerFoundry was the winner. Highly recommended to the beginners in data analysis.

    Very comprehensive self-paced course

    I am very happy with the online course, as it is self-paced and there is a lot of information to review and practice. I am also very happy with the assignments. Sometimes I would like to receive quicker or more detailed feedback on my assignments, but on the other hand this gives me the opportunity to look for solutions as I have to do at work.

    Top Notch UX Experience

    I was a little skeptical about doing an online course at first. I did a ton of research on what the best approach would be to learn UX before I signed on with Careerfoundry. There's plenty of self-taught paths you can take, multiple online bootcamps, and university courses. It was overwhelming. I found a review for Careerfoundry that really appealed to me though. The course offers a ton of resources to help you succeed. There's job placement assistance, you're assigned a mentor and a tut...
