Data Analytics Career Track

The curriculum is constantly being examined and updated based on student feedback, which is a clear indicator of a commitment to quality. The tools, methodologies, assigned work and mentors are all top-notch. The Slack community is also a great resource to use when some units contain difficult topics to overcome alone.Having just completed the course, I am already seeing results by being invited to interview for analyst roles that incorporate some of the tools and processes I've learned at Springboard.

The course is well-structured, the support one gets during the course is immense and diverse ranging from 1:1 mentor calls(on-demand calls to mentors for help), office hours,  a slack channel, career coaching,  weekly calls with one's assigned mentor, technical support, advising and everything in between. My schedule didn't allow me to join the weekly office hours in real time but I could always go back and watch the videos, I could schedule appointments to speak to an on-demand mentor and those were so helpful. But for these, I do not think I would've finished the course. I learned so much, not just the technical course content but also about networking, resume and cover letter writing.  Simply, all the people associated with Springboard are there to see you succeed! Do not hesitate to reach out to anybody when you feel like you're falling behind or just not in the right place. They will help you!

Started the course on July 2019 and just completed the course today. Great course, I especially appreciated the support by mentor and career coaches. There were times when I could not see the end of the course but with their encouragement and positivity I made it. I feel that I am more confident tackling the technical skillsets necessary for my future job in this area and it has also made me a more creative and flexible person. 

Last week I completed the Springboard Data Analytics Program. It was a journey with a duration of almost 7 months and 400+ study hours. My experience was very interesting and challenging.
Please see below some points why I really love this program: 

The curriculum has a good structure and It covers the main topics for data analytics (Financial Analysis, Economics, Statistics, Career Coaching) and such important analytical tools as SQL, Python, Advanced Excel, Power BI, and Tableau.
Springboard's mentors are very professional and supportive. 
You will never feel alone with the useful Slack channel and weekly meetings.
Communication with the student advisers and the Springboard support team was good and very helpful as well. 
The program is flexible, and it is possible to balance effectively between your current job and the course.
You can take 3 weeks break if you need to pause the program.
The price is much lower than the prices of other bootcamps.
You can get a discount if you refer your friends (as I did!). 
At the end of the program, you will have two capstones projects and you will be able to tell your “story” and be prepared well for the real interview. 
After the program, you have 6-months of support from the career coach to help you to apply for the roles and pass the interview.
I can definitely recommend the Springboard Data Analytics Career Track program. It worth the money and benefit you as a data analyst professional. Thank you, Springboard!

the curriculum flows nicely and prepares you for your new job in data analytics.what i liked the most was the mentor program and the weekly call. i became close friends with my mentor in the end!

First I want to thank all mentor because their putting so many things on your career page. They always stay your side when you need just tell them. Thank you much hiring those mentor at Springboard. They gave me great support how to make better. Some times I lost my path they gave advise how to change it. I am really glad my paths crossed.

The customer services are awesome. My student advisor was amazing. He supported me all the way. They offer unlimited mentor calls which is a golden treasure, those mentors will help you and explain anything not clear. The curriculum covered a variety of important topics and skills. My only cons are the curriculum can be a bit deeper. Their course is good but they teach the essential skills so you can't expect to be an expert in Python for example after the course but you will be familiar with the environment and you will have enough skills to survive

5 Stars! Perfectly currated (you learn two visualization tools/ two programming languages + economics, statistics, finances, job search strategies, all aided by mentors and career coaches). I don't come from a tech background but this program was a timely and affordable way for me to make that move. Highly recommend!

The Data Analytics Career Track program through Springboard was a great experience and worth the value of the program. The program mentors are very knowledgeable and provide support every step of the way. As someone who was a transition from a different career sector, this program provided me with career support and technical skills to make the leap into the tech and data field. I highly recommend this program to people who love working with data and making a transition into this field. Springboard helped every step of the way. 

Springboard is the place you will be sure , you are going to learn a lot of great skills and being ready for job. I am happy that I attended in this course. Mentors, coaches and other staffs are very friendly and helpful. they are 24 hours to help and support you.  

Springboard is an intensive 6 month course that teaches you the following skills: advanced Excel, SQL, Python, Tableau & PowerBI.  You learn presentation skills using these tools.  It also provides you with career coaches, resume advice and LinkedIn tips.  I really enjoyed the course and the faculty support!

I had a good experience with Springboard overall. The main takeaways are:-Jobs: I ended up landing a job that I had applied for just before joining the program, so I have limited experience with the job  materials. From what I did, though, the prep felt pretty thorough.-General Curriculum: I liked the technical curriculum a lot, and while the course had more of a business focus than I might have preferred, this probably reflects where the jobs are (and they tell you upfront). A sufficiently motivated person could piece together the curriculum independently, but working through things as part of a boot-camp serves as a helpful accountability mechanism.-Projects: The Capstone projects were awesome. You have a lot of flexibility when it comes to topic and methods, so you can find something that really interests you. This is where the biggest part of my learning and confidence-building took place.-Support: I had a great experience with my mentor. I was able to get clear project/curriculum guidance on a weekly basis and really came away with a good picture of what day to day life as a data analyst looks like. The program has tons of other resources if you ever get stuck.

I had previously done an online Introduction to Data Science Course through springboard and my experience with them led me to continue with more insights and direction to pursue a career in Data Analytics. The course was well structured with a balance of all aspects required from a Data Analytics perspective. It had great course materials links articles and advise from Industry experts.  The curriculum has been curated from different resources by their Subject matter experts and PhD level Educators that advise on what materials are best right now based on the trending market demand. The mentor led course has a one on one guidance with a experienced industry expert who throws in real life wisdom and practices. This further enforces confidence and skill building not only in a student like me who wants to switch careers but anyone who wants a fresh start. Student support and admin support is excellent and my student advisor went to great lengths in understanding my personal shortcomings during difficult times and provided the flexibility in completing this course. Overall I would rate this experience as excellent and highly recommend anyone contemplating to start with Springboard.

My journey with springboard was very fascinating and encouraging. From the student advisor to the career coaches and most especially my mentor. They were very encouraging and motivating. Excellent curricula!!!

I would highly recommend Springboard for its course content, mentor support, mentor availability, and positive community support and vibes. For context, I completed the course while working full time and traveling for work, and while it was difficult to complete in the original goal of 6 months, with some course breaks and focused sessions with my mentor I was able to complete a large chunk quickly focusing on not being a perfectionist. I would also say SB is very open to anything you need or questions you have, and the mentors have a lot of availability. Their goal is to help you finish the course as well, so you don't have to feel like anything is holding you back. The content was varied from Economics and Finance to Python coding so it continued to be interesting content. I would highly recommend if you are considering a career change or to just add to your current professional skills!

 I enrolled in this program thinking it would be a great opportunity. I was in the Data Analytics program, and let me tell you, all they do is give you 10 minutes of introductory videos, then they send you off to websites like datacamp, youtube, and other free sites. What a utter waste of money. Then they throw assignments you expecting you to finish them after watching your youtube videos. You get a weekly mentor that you can maybe have enough time to discuss 1 or 2 problems, other than that you're pretty much on your own. On top of that, I actually encountered an EVIL UNPROFESSIONAL worker there. Her name is Maggie Zhang. I was on work leave due to the whole COVID situation and didn't have time to do the curriculum (this was last year around May 2020) and I get an email from Maggie.   "Hi DN, I'm following-up with you from my earlier email inquiring about your progress in your Springboard course. I'd love to discuss the course with you, and see if there's any way I can be of help or support. We do have some options that may make sense to discuss going forward.  If we don't hear from you within the next 3 business days, we'll go ahead and cancel your course enrollment. Let me know if you have any questions I can help with! -Maggie Zheng"  WOW so this is what you get from Springboard. If the email goes to junk mail and you don't respond to her within 3 days you are out of luck and out $10,000 tuition. VERY VERY unprofessional and awful person. Before this e-mail, I literally submitted an assignment 4 days prior. She had the nerve to email me to question my attendance even after I submitted the assignment. This lady is nuts, just threatening students and then sending emails with a passive aggressive "let me know if u have any questions I can help with!" Yeah you can help me if you look in the mirror and see what kind of awful demon you are. Usually I only encounter this type of disrespect when I suspect racism is at play. Who knows?  The company of course sides with her, perhaps showing their support for possible RACISM!  After being treated like sanitary wipes, I decide not to continue with them anymore. Now I'm stuck with a $4,000 bill thanks to springboard. At least I'm in a real school now and they are actually teaching me stuff instead of redirecting me to datacamp. The least I can do is protect and inform those who come after me to prevent these con-artists from stealing more money from people who can easily learn more from youtube videos.  You can definitely learn everything you need if you have the right template. Goto a different coding school.  DO NOT GO TO SPRINGBOARD, full of evil people like Maggie Zheng. 

When I set out to make a career change during the pandemic I knew it was going to be a lot of work, as I had no previous experience in anything technical. Springboard's curriculum did an excellent job at showing me what I needed to be a successful analyst. My weekly mentor gave me tons of industry insight. When it came to the job search their career services team proved to be invaluable in helping me get and prepare for interviews. Overall, Springboard's use of mentors, different learning tools, and career support combine to create an extremely well-rounded program that can help you succeed. 

I just finished the Data Analytics Program with Springboard. Overall, I thought there was great value. The mentorship program Was easily where I found a ton of value. I was matched with someone who challenged me to grow as an analyst. And, they offered support and insight when I struggled. I highly recommend the course. 

After researching online for almost 2 months, I finally zeroed down on Springboard. I have never had a pleasant experience with online studies, however Springboard is a game changer. Not only do they support you completely during the course, an extended 6 months support, post competition is provided which is an USP to Springboard. Moreover weekly one to one mentor calls, truly motivate you complete the weeks curriculum in order to present/ discuss with your mentor. Springboard also offers a Job Guarantee program to all eligible students, with the best of the best career coaches to guide you find you dream job. What I liked most was the flow of curriculum. Straight to the point. I can confidently say I learnt and enjoyed the last 6 months at Springboard and will definitely recommend SB to family and friends. 

Overall, I think the course is well-structured to help students with different backgrounds to learn new skills in data analytics. Even though it's designed to be a 6-month program, for students with relevant experience, they can speed up their learning and complete the course within 3-4 months as it's self-paced. I was able to complete the course in 3 months, as the mentors and student advisors were very responsive whenever you have questions (they have many mentors available besides the 1:1 mentor assigned to you). The career service from Springboard is overall very effective as well since most of the career coaches are professional technical recruiters and have been in the field for many years - I've worked with 3 career coaches, they are all very strategic in terms of resume writing and interview preparation. I was able to receive 2-3 times more interview invitations since I joined the program. The 1:1 mentorship is definitely the primary value of the program. My mentor was very supportive and knowledgeable - provide me lots of actionable feedback and advice. He really guided me down a career path that led me to an offer. I am overall very satisfied with this investment.
