    I am half-way through my UX course with Career Foundry and I'm so happy I found this program. Self-paced and fully remote, this has been the best choice for me, as I can still work while completing my program. My tutor has proved to be very helpful, so that I always feel that I have support. Would recommend!

    UX Design Program Review

    The UX Design Program is a great way to learn the process of UX design! The material is very in-depth and very applicable to what I would be doing in this field. The mentors and tutors are very professional and are quick to offer help. Getting help from people that are already working in UX design is very beneficial. The only thing I would change or suggest is adding some more details to the expectations for the tasks at the end of the exercises. Sometimes, how to get to the objectives o...

    Data Analytics

    This course begins with a 4 week intro course as an intro to analytics, then dives into a 55-task immersion course. I am closing in on the halfway mark, and have been very impressed so far. The lessons are broken into manageable pieces and I feel very competent in each subject once I finish a section. I am nearing the end of the Tableau work (10 exercises) and I feel confident I could make a Tableau dashboard in a professional environment. My mentor and tutor provided have also been grea...

But just reach out the the community or your tutor to help you get back on track. I like that I can work part tim...
