    Incredible Experience

    Before choosing Springboard I researched probably over 40 bootcamps. I ended up choosing them because they offered a job guarantee, taught a well rounded, modern full stack developer course, and because they did not offer income share agreements but instead a flat tuition fee. I went at a slightly slower pace than recommended and ended up using some free extension but completed the course nonetheless and received 2 job offers 6 weeks after finishing. The program was adjusted while I was ...

    Machine Learning Engineering Career Track

    Springboard is an excellent curated program which provides all of the resources you would need to land a job in ML/DS. They do not hold your hand however, you get out what you put in, and you can go as fast or slow as you want. They simply conglomerate the best material out there for you to study, and the best resources for perfecting your application and interview skills for the industry. The material is not their own, but it is so well organized and you know you are learning something ...

    Amazing professional development

    I was so happy that my husband pushed me to join Springboard. I really benefitted from the mentorship and the career services help. I think. I would have done well using other cheaper options to get into this industry but the career services and mentor program were what made me sign up to begin with.

    UX Design Career Track

    It was very helpful to learn skills hands-on by starting the capstone project so early in the course, then slowly working on it for a couple months as each skill is learned. My mentor was particularly amazing (gave thoughtful, expert, challenging, and encouraging feedback), which made every penny worth the course. I hear most mentors are great, though I'm sure experiences can vary a bit. 

    My main small complaint about the course is that most sub-projects are still fairly large/inv...

    Software Engineering Immersive

    As somebody who has already worked as a Java Backend Engineer, I wasn't sure if I was going to learn much/  The course content was in depth and great (on javascript and python stack in contrast to J2EE), and my mentor was incredible.  He legitimately cared about helping me improve my career.  The job assistance at the end is a little lacking, especially because most of the career coaches are always booked, so you might need to show some initiative in that area.

    UX Design Career Track

    Applied for Springboard because I felt this program would give me the right tools needed to create a UX/UI portfolio. The curriculum provided all the internal/external resources and the 1-on-1 mentorship was a great experience.

    Very happy with this course!

    Overall, this was a really good, solid program. I am a trained graphic designer but have been UX-curious for several years. I had done a few Lynda/LinkedIn courses as well as joined the Interactive Design Foundation and felt like this course would be a piece of cake. It wasn't. 
    The course plan was excellent: it covered a LOT - far more than in any of the courses I had taken until that point. My mentor was rigorous, too. I have been a designer for 20+ years and have a fantastic work e...
