    Learning a lot!

    CareerFoundry meets my needs as a parent who is making a transition in a career. Fully online and self-paced. Compared to other bootcamps I researched, the cost to go to CareerFoundry is one of the lowest. One thing I have enjoyed the most is the Student Advisor team. All-around, a great option!

    Just What I Was Looking For

    My experience was positive from day one. I signed up for the UX program, and I like that I could complete the work at my own pace. With the flexibility of my previous job, I was able to make a full-time commitment to the course work and finish in six months! The content and assignments were chunked into easy, digestible parts, and I appreciate the thoroughness of the assignments because I anticipated graduating with a full portfolio. Having access to a supportive tutor with quick respons...

    Great Support in My UX Course

    I'm currently enrolled in CareerFoundry's UX course, and I've really enjoyed it so far. My tutor and mentor have both given me such great guidance, especially as a person that is very new to this world (I currently work in healthcare). The course is well structured with lots of visual markers to keep track of your progress. It is self-study, so be prepared to have your study/work/life schedule organized to make life easier! The course also has several links to outside resources for furth...

    So happy with my choice!

    Was a challenging thing to switch careers in my 40's and learn a new skill but CareerFoundry made the process a lot easier. With help from mentors, tutors and job prep coaches, the support i received was invaluable. I landed my first job a couple of days after graduating. It may not be the norm but all i can say is market yourself of any platform you can think of. It really helped. The curriculum is very detailed and i covered enough to feel like i can take on this new career. Beyond hap...

    Challenging and informative

    Classes are very informative and easy to follow.  Assignments are challenging but tutor/mentor are helpful when assistance is needed.  Examples and videos throughout the course are great and helpful in explaining what is needed and required to learn the topic that is being taught. For my personal preference the flexibility of classes are the greatest perk of the course.

    Career foundry

    I think career foundry is amazing.
    Before I tried to study in deferent sites and nothing compares to Career foundry. My tutor and mentor have been exceptional and supportive all the time. They do not miss a detail and the feedback is always encouraging. The content is also impressive and puts all the information straight away into practice with real live scenarios. I have really enjoyed it <3

    Well structured course with great mentor support

    I enjoyed the structure of the course plus the timely and encouraging tutor support. Weekly Mentor calls were so eye-opening in picturing the perspective of the pathway, and also getting answers from someone who has already experienced working in this field was really helpful. It would be great if all the material in the course were prepared in a video format rather than text to simulate the physical class.
