    An Intense, Focused, Fantastic Learning Experience

    I’m about 3 months into my UI course with CareerFoundry and I must say it is an excellent program that can be done by many people regardless of skill or previous experience. The platform is simple to use, the instructions are clear and detailed, and my tutor and mentor have helped me every step of the way. I have only had 1 issue regarding my mentoring, but it was resolved in a timely manner by my student advisors. I can confidently recommend this course to anyone looking to enter the de...

    In depth Course

    The course has been fully in depth into each step of the UX design process and UX design career as a whole. Having the mentors each step of the way has been a nice tool and good practice. The course gives you all the tools to learn UX design but it is on you to learn new softwares and eventually build your profile up enough to show to potential employers. I haven’t finished the course fully just yet but so far I’ve enjoyed it!

    Really enjoying it!

    I'm a little under half-way into my Careerfoundry UI design course. I had some experience in illustration beforehand but none in UI design and I'm finding it a fantastic and informative learning experience. I love being able to go at my own pace and my mentor and tutor are incredibly helpful. My calls with my mentor in particular keep me motivated and give me confidence in my ability to get a job after this course. I haven't started the job prep course yet but I will soon!

    Fantastic community

    Hi. The level of support I am receiving from CareerFoundry has been great. The community and peers are wonderful. The mentors and tutors are top-notch as well! The thing is sometimes the coursework does not match the tasks itself. I'm only talking about the UX Immersion part of it. I don't think many programs will be perfect, but I think CareerFoundry hires great mentors for the students to feel confident in applying to jobs. I not only learned and am learning fantastic UX foundations, b...

    Careerfoundry course evaluation

    I was afraid how big is the course & how i will finish all these achievements while keeping informations & skills i learned active and fresh at the same time, however, the course steps helped a lot to feel such confidence day after day.
    Tutor & mentor do amazing work to keep me on the right track.
    My only concern was about the way of describing achievement 2.1 statistical analysis, it needs more examples than context to understand ( i had to open other channels to get i...

    Loving it!

    It’s just been two months into the course  and I must say it has far exceeded my expectations. The content is so engaging and resourceful. We get a lot of support, direction and motivation from our teacher as well as mentor. Also the student advisors are always available in case of any concerns that we might have.The flexibility in the schedule is a boon especially for busy moms like myself. I am glad I decided to take up this course and I am hoping to ace it. 🙂

What makes getting through those obstacles possible is the incredible and patient help you receive from your Mentor and Tutor. So far on my journey the most beneficial and valuable element is the advice and hands on knowledge I r...

    It's been a life-changing experience!

    I've been enrolled with CareerFoundry for the last three months, and it's been a life-changing experience. I've wanted to make a career change for years, but time and financial constraints have always held me back. I'm so glad I decided to take the plunge with CareerFoundry. Their curriculum, support, guidance, and resources have given me such confidence in what I do now and what I hope to do in the future as a designer. I can't wait to see what the future holds!
