Avocademy

With a lot of experiences in life, you get out what you put in. Career Jumpstart offers a lot of the resources you'll need to build a solid portfolio and to launch your job search. They hold daily calls, you can book mentor sessions easily, and the peer community is full of amazing people. That said, the program doesn't hand hold. One has to take accountability and initiative to make the best use out of all the resources CJ has to offer. Changing careers is not easy but Career Jumpstart and the people there kept me afloat all the way to my first job offer 8 months into the program! 
One more great part of the experience, they do their research on what helps job seekers communicate their strengths/values best. They make tweaks to their curriculum that address the evolving job market as necessary. Last thought, the only red/yellow flag in my book is that they don't share the percentage of students who get UX jobs after [X] amount of months applying. 

When looking for courses/bootcamps to join, one of my main criteria was mentorship! I wanted to be able to ask real, experienced people questions and learn from them. I saw Avocademy had mentorship and a much lower price compared to similar bootcamps, so I decided to reach out to ask questions. I was really impressed and decided to sign up. I am SO glad I did! Avocademy has been nothing short of amazing. When I didn’t understand a concept or needed clarification, I was able to ask! Having this mentorship ensured I did everything correctly and I wasn’t left wondering if everything was right. I really enjoyed the course and signed up for Career Jumpstart (the course after Foundations). If you are thinking about getting into the UX/UI Design field, I highly recommend Avocademy!

I must say, this bootcamp has been an absolutely incredible experience for me. The UX Foundations course took me around four months to complete while juggling a full-time job. Career Jumpstart took two months to complete, which included working on real client projects and building my portfolio. It was an intense but immensely rewarding journey.

After a month and a half of job hunting, I've been fortunate enough to secure an amazing job opportunity with a Fortune company. I truly believe that Avocademy is the best bootcamp out there. The hands-on experience of working with real clients was a standout feature in my interviews and it helped me stand out from the crowd. The team at Avocademy consistently provided invaluable job search tips, best practices, and they put in tremendous effort to ensure that we find great job opportunities.

Moreover, this course equipped me with all the necessary tools to become a proficient UX designer. From learning the fundamentals to mastering the intricacies of the field, Avocademy provided an incredible amount of information. And the mentors are incredibly helpful in making sure that we are designing to industry standards. I wholeheartedly recommend this course to anyone interested in pursuing a career in UX design.

By putting in the hard work and diligently following the course curriculum, I successfully transitioned into a fulfilling new career. I am incredibly grateful to Avocademy for this life-changing opportunity. Thank you, Avocademy!

I knew I wanted to learn more about UX/UI Design & didn't know where to start until I stumbled upon Avocademy on TikTok and Instagram. After looking over the website and the easy pay plans I knew this was the place for me, the Foundations course provides you unlimited access to mentors and resources to make sure you feel comfortable with your work. I left the Foundations course feeling so much more confident in my UX/UI skills and enjoyed the course so much that I entered Career Jumpstart. If you're questioning whether or not Avocademy is the place to learn UX/UI design, just do it! You won't regret it.  

I jumped into the Avocademy UX/UI Foundations Bootcamp with zero knowledge. I only knew it was "tech" related. So, I went in completely blind. 
But, after going through the curriculum, it provided me with in-depth knowledge in "easy-to-digest" portions of lectures. 
Mentors are always available to answer the student's questions. So, it actually makes it harder to not be able to understand all UX/UI basics. 
The lectures and mentors will also prepare students for real-world situations while working as a UX/UI designer.
I highly recommend this boot camp to whoever is interested in this field or want to make a career change.

For those who are curious about becoming a UX/UI designer, Avocademy is a great place to break into tech!! They provide numerous mentors who are there for you whenever you feel lost or uncertain about any topic! The material is so easy to understand and as a person who does not have a background in tech, I was able to achieve success with the course! I absolutely LOVE the community!!! There’s unlimited support, endless material to better understand your field, motivational speakers, an amazing community to rely on, and everything was done AT HOME at my convenience. As a person that has a busy lifestyle, this was my biggest plus. I am now in Career Jumpstart and I am so happy I decided to take this path with the Avocademy team by my side!! I cannot stress that I would not want it any other way!!

I just finished the Foundations course with Avocademy and I thoroughly enjoyed it! I made use of all the resources that the course offered and was able to step into UX. I'm currently taking the Career Jumpstart part of the program and working my way to gaining more experience and knowledge. In the foundations course, there's a lot of independent work but each task that you do is followed with mentor support. I didn't make use of it enough at first but after meeting with one mentor, I realized that I could be scheduling 1:1 meetings to recap or review, not just when I needed help. When I started to do this, I learn so many more things that I didn't even realize. The mentors, whether novice or experts, had so much to share; each meeting I learned new tips and tricks. The course itself is well organized and structured; they set it up so that anyone, from any place in their education journey, can start and learn. However, it is not easy, you do have to commit to it. To get the best, you have to put in the time and work but in turn, it rewards you well.
