    Intro to UI

    I thoroughly enjoyed completing every task throughout the course. I also particularly like how CareerFoundry structures the material and the flexible nature of the course. The feedback I received from my tutor was super helpful. And I learned a lot from talking to my mentor.

    I am extremely happy with the course so far. Due to my current circumstances I can only complete course work at intermittent times, but the course work is interesting, well explained, paced and I have support from my mentor and tutors. I would highly recommend it.

    Studying With Great Tutors and Mentors

    I have been taking the Data Analytics course from Careerfoundry since January 2022. Lessons are very effective, helpful, and intensively prepared. One of the pros that I like about this course is that the communication between students and tutors/mentors is very fast and productive.

    Amazing experience!

    CF has been a great experience and investment for me so far. I’m about 5 months in, and have found that the curriculum has been direct and relevant and the tasks do a good job of helping you focus on building skills that are most relevant for building a portfolio and starting a job. The availability of a mentor and tutor were big selling points for me, and both have been really helpful. If you’re someone who needs accountability to stay on track or is having a hard time figuring out what...

    UXUI DESIGN

    I’m a little less than half way through with my course and I have to say I’m loving it! My mentor and tutor have been incredibly helpful and provide me with lots of extra reading material that can help me along. The course is very detailed and explains things in an efficient manner.  It introduces you to popular industry tools and programs. The slack community is very positive and you met loads of amazing people. It’s great for networking! So far loving it!

    I have truly enjoyed my experience with Career Foundry as a career changer! My tutor and mentor have been essential in my success so far and the trust I have already with them just helps me to know that I can make mistakes and learn from them here while I'm in the course. I think the overall education that Career Foundry is supporting through this UX design program is a great place to start so that I can continue my learning and advancement after I've graduated.

    I love the learning by doing and knowing by experience!

    I am at this moment halfway to completing the full-time UI Design Course.
    I love how the themes are structured, main subjects are broken down into smaller pieces of information for a better understanding and assimilation. Along with the reading, there are always great resources to keep enriching the information provided. At the end of each class, there is a Task that is part of a project that the student is building up.
