    Wish college was taught this way.

    Honestly, I think college and university should be structured this way.  You apply what you learn after each lesson to create a portfolio to be able to present on future job applications.  Lots of support available not only for what you’re learning but also during your career search. I would highly recommend careerfoundry.  I wish I did it sooner!

    Growth at own pace

    I liked that I could move at my own pace with this course. There were some sections that I needed to spend more time on and there were moments when I needed to take a personal break. My first tutor fell behind on reviewing my tasks which set me back a bit, but CareerFoundry assigned me a new tutor right away after I contacted them. Second tutor, mentor, and career specialist were attentive and helpful. They made this process so much easier and were very uplifting. There are a lot of reso...

    Enjoying the UX Design Course

    Worth investing in a course vs. wasting time trying to create a curriculum myself! Enjoying being a part of the CF community and meeting people in the field. The additional job search course has also benefited me greatly; I can use those exercises and tasks to benefit me in whatever stage I’m in within my career.

    Self paced, great instructor support

    I enrolled in the Data Analytics program at CareerFoundry to launch my career transition. The asynchronous learning is great for those like me who still are working and have to squeeze time in here and there. The feedback from my instructors was timely and very helpful. My tutor helped review the exercises and tasks that I would while learning each module and my mentor reviewed my portfolio projects and provided a perspective from an experienced worker in the industry. I marked "Job Assi...

    Career Foundry is the BEST UX/UI Program

    I've been learning with Career Foundry for about 6 months to study UX/UI. This is a major career change for me, and the staff, tutor I've been assigned, and grading tutor have been fantastic. They are supportive, challenging, and genuinely care about your growth and success as a student and in our career ahead of you. I would recommend Career Foundry to anyone interested in their learning topics.

    Really Great so Far

    The CareerFoundry Data Analytics course has been a great decision for me. With all the resources available on the internet I was skeptical about paying for a bootcamp, but the combination of the sensibly structured curriculum, frequent projects to test for understanding, graded by real tutors and mentors; I feel like I'm laying a firm foundation for a career change.
