Data Analytics Career Track

Absolutely wonderful experience! Best mentors in the industry and unlimited technical mentor call help when needed (Python, SQL, Tableau, Excel). I have grown to actually become very good at working with data. This was hands down the best learning experience of my life! 

Springboard provides a thorough curriculum for data analysis and covers a lot of the fundamentals of project design and framework, statistics, economics and presentation types. The case studies help put everything into context but it is on you to really utilize your mentor when you have questions or want to approach the problem in a different method. I'm a PhD economist with a lot of experience across roles/industries. I knew that I needed Python skills and a higher level of SQL knowledge/experience to compete in the job market for the positions I want to have. Springboard helped me level up on that side of the playing field. My student advisors went above and beyond to help me complete the course through health issues and then a semester of teaching 5 university economics courses. The value of the resources was so impressive, coaches and office hours provided so much more than I expected.

The springboard curriculum was well-rounded and allowed me to become familiar with many aspects of data analytics as well as with a variety of programs that will be useful on the job. The mentor calls are helpful in keeping you pointed in the right direction. Springboard also provided a lot of career support which would be beneficial to anyone looking for a new job or promotion... However, I did not take advantage of this aspect of the course as I was not looking for a new job and had already advanced my position. 

The Springboard Data Analytics was challenging, rewarding, and very helpful to me. It challenged me with exercises ranging from Excel, Python, SQL, and data visualization tools (Tableau and PowerBI). They also provided an incredible mentor to me, Sean Lucas, for when the challenges were too hard. It was rewarding because throughout the course I was able to improve my resume and LinkedIn profile. I also used some of the projects that I did as examples of the work that I have done to show to employers. Last but not least, I am an entry level data analyst and didn't have a firm grasp on SQL or Python. This course enhanced my abilities to use those languages and it improved my performance at my job. 100% enjoyed my time as a student, my mentor, my career coaches, and the Springboard staff themselves who helped me extend/modify my time/curriculum due to life being crazy. Thank you!

Had an amazing experience with mentor who help me to keep in the track despite some external aspects which challenged me to finish the program. Curriculum well designed, learned a lot only data camp part of SQL and Python could be updated with different provider such as udemy or coursera, this is just my opinion everyone has different learning style.

My Springboard experience was good. Unfortunately, it took me longer than expected to complete the course because my family issues. My mentor is very helpful. Rather helping me directly, he always showed me the way how I can find my own solution which seems to me really practical and effective. In this way, I learn how to find my own solution rather depending on others. I got continuous support from my mentor beside the scheduled meeting time. I found all the course materials and tutorials effective. But they could use more effective SQL and Python materials rather than fully depend on Dataquest. As a new SQL and Python learner, I found Dataquest not very effective (It is my personal opinion). But, the positive side is, if the student get stuck in anywhere, they can get instant unlimited mentor call support and community support in Slack. I have just finished the course and started to work with career support to search jobs and I found it helpful until now. Lets' see how long it will take to get the job. I recommended Springboard Data Analytics Career Track for the people who have no direct experience in Data Analytics, It will add value to your resume and Linkedin profile which will give them confident to present themselves in any Data Analytics interview.

My Springboard experience was great. Unfortunately, it took me longer than expected to complete the course because my job responsibilities changed. I also had to change mentors during the process. However, my mentor was great and provided consistent structure and valuable feedback that allowed me to complete the course in a timely manner. I am a tactile learner and was a true beginner to most of the SQL and Python material, so I do wish there was more time built in to get more practice. However, you do have lifetime access to the course material, so you can go back and practice as you wish. The career support was great also. Especially for people who may not have experience with Linkedin, networking, or asking for referrals and introductions. Overall, I am happy with my experience and confident the skills I've learned will help me achieve my career goals.

Prior to starting my course at Springboard, I was in the live events business. I was unsure of how to go about switching to a new field. I found Springboard in June and saw great reviews plus a job guarantee, so I decided to give it a shot. I was super impressed right off the bat with how well structured the course was. They start you off simple with foundations to use throughout the course, before going into the more technical stuff. The career search units were extremely helpful as well, since most people enroll in this course with the intention of finding a job afterwards. The mentor calls were a life saver as well. There were multiple times throughout the course that I felt stuck and having a subject matter expert that I could talk to every week was amazing. To anyone that is considering enrolling in a bootcamp, I would highly recommend Springboard.

I had a great experience with the Springboard Data Analytics Career Track. I worked full-time while completing the program and really appreciated how flexible and asynchronous it was. The curriculum is jam-packed and I personally struggled a bit to complete the program on time, but it's definitely doable! I would recommend this bootcamp to others who like to work at their own pace and on their own time and are comfortable working independently, as it does require a good deal of self-motivation and proactivity to complete. I found the content and assignments to be very helpful and practical and I have applied much of what I learned to my current job. Lastly, I found the weekly mentor calls and monthly career coaching calls to be INCREDIBLY helpful and all support staff I interacted with were excellent. Overall, Springboard was a great option for me and I'm really glad I did it!

The Data Analytics bootcamp from Springboard is a really effective program that helps the person with little data background digest the information into smaller bite sized pieces. I really appreciated this. However, as someone with other full-time responsibilities and being a parent as well, there were times I found it difficult to keep up on assignments. Dedicating 20 hours a week seems easy, but any little thing can throw you off. This speaks more to time management than their course. I believe for those who have the time, this would be a great investment. 

Even though I had difficulty with finishing the course on time, Springboard’s Data Analytics Career Track program is filled with useful information for those looking to find a career in data. I went from knowing nothing to having some skills in Python, SQL, Tableau, and others. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who has time on their hands and is looking to be challenged with learning a completely new field. This course is beginner friendly if you put in the effort, and the mentors are all deeply knowledgeable. 

I Had a good time studying with them, always being supported,  easy platform to learn also great mentors to help you during the course.Really helpful career advise program who helps me achieve my professional goals even before i finished my course.

I have learned so much during my Springboard experience. The application process was quick and easy and the more I learned about the program, the more confident I felt about enrolling. The curriculum is thorough with clear guidelines and expectations outlined for students. There's endless streams of support- career coaches, personal mentors (one-on-one, once per week), unlimited mentors, students on the Slack community or in virtual study groups, and student advisors. This program is also incredibly flexible with pricing- the loan option is outstanding and low risk- as well as timing (you can pause the curriculum at any time (limited on number of pauses) or can even do an extension if needed. This program is self-paced and offers endless opportunity to receive feedback on projects, develop a deeper understanding of the curriculum, and learn how to network effectively and land a job in your field. This has been an incredible opportunity and I really can't recommend them enough.

Great for those looking for full online virtual experience with the added benefit of a mentor to meet with weekly and to hold you accountable for your progress and work each week. The curriculum covers the basics and provides a deep dive into key tools that are used in the industry. I had previous experience in tableau and excel, however SQL and Python were brand new to me. Focusing on those sections with my mentor helped me learn it much faster than I would have on my own. After completing my certification course and posting on LinkedIn, I had a previous manager reach out about an opening that matched what I had just learned with Python and SQL. I now have a new role specializing in Tableau and Python. The certification helped show my dedication to the field and desire to pivot my career. Definitely worth investing the time and effort in this program. 

The highlight of Springboard's data analytics bootcamp was the well organized curriculum with unlimited access to expert mentors from the filed of data analytics and data science. There was a dedicated student advisor who continuously tracked the progress of the course completion and kept motivated to complete the program on time. The program also offered access to career coaches to prepare and be ready for the job search up on the completion of the program.

My Springboard learning was  quite an interesting one. Student friendly course curriculum , access to mentoring from Industry Professionals, Experts and Career Coaches. Unlimited access and support from other Course Outline experts when needed. Access to the course curriculum for life. I had a wonderful Student Advisor who motivated and guided me to the Finish line.

Life Changing!No regrets here. Very flexible program, even for people like me who worked full time and also have issues with follow through :/ They give pauses and extensions which helps immensely. They made the online experience doable, holding you accountable with weekly mentor Skype calls. One of the main reasons I enrolled was the mentor 1:1 and the smaller price tag. Curriculum and program overall has changed a lot since I enrolled in 1/2021, but probably for the better, they are expanding and constantly use your input to improve all aspects. I am going to miss my mentor very much :(

The course starts out nontechnical as it covers economics, finance, and strategic thinking (MECE Issue Trees), etc. It really helps with your LinkedIn profile (I have already had recruiters reaching out to me). The data visualization unit began a series of more technical units. The pacing really helped me to gauge how much I needed to work on each week. One thing I wish was different is how much time elapses in between units, sometimes I forgot the content that I learned. I really enjoyed the LinkedIn Learning and DataCamp lecture videos.

The course was very informative and I would definitely recommend to anyone seriously wanting to switch careers wether going into software engineering, data science, data analytics, UX/UI design, or cyber security. 

When I decided to pivot my career, I looked into several boot camps for data analytics. I decided to go with Springboard mainly because of its job guarantee. They not only prepare you for the technical aspects, but they also have you learn other skills such as structured thinking, financial analysis, economics, etc. They also have several sections dedicated for your career such as interview preparation, resume formatting, LinkedIn profile updates, etc. I think that this program is ideal for someone who is not only trying to learn something new but also trying to receive career coaching as well. They also provide mentor support where an industry professional keeps you accountable every week. Overall, it was a great course!
