Data Analytics Career Track

 The Springboard Data Science track is a well-rounded Bootcamp program. Over the course of six months, there are two major projects, weekly calls with an industry professional, several career coaching sessions, and ample study material. 

Springboard's data analytics career track boot camp program is designed in an organized manner. They have dedicated team at every stage to support. Springboard is very transparent. 

I had a great time Learning with Springboard Data Analytics Career track Course .Course curriculum is very well structured with lot of good content .Mentors are very knowledgeable who helps you understand the topics very well . Highly connected community in springboard where students gets to connect through slack channel to discuss course related questions.Overall Great Experience.

I chose Springboard over other ones because of the mentorship aspect.Pros -- an easy interface- they help arrange study groups- the projects are challenging but manageable- there is a slack channel to ask questions and share feedback- weekly meeting with a mentorCons- they are growing so there were so minor hiccups in the assignments but they respond quickly to problemsI just graduated so I don't have a job yet, but the career support has been useful so far.

Springboard is a great platform for any person be it beginner or intermediate. you can start course and will learn and gain best knowledge out of this.

I took Springboard's Data Analytics career track from Dec. 2020 to July 2021. I found the career track to be well structured, with a great overview of the data analytics process from top to bottom. You learn how to apply problem solving frameworks with technical skills, and then tell a story with your data. I took the career track as part of ongoing education at my current job, so I did not utilize the job support function of the program. That being said, the course absolutely helped me achieve my objective of creating a comprehensive mental model of the data analytics process; something I had known in many different parts over my career and the curriculum helped me to assemble into a comprehensive whole. I am confident in my ability to leverage data analytics to solve business problems, and extract value from data. The entire career track is a not-insignificant time commitment, and can definitely be challenging at parts (something I consider a good thing). You have regular mentor meetings which were very helpful to me in staying on track and collaborating on different ideas for the capstone projects. I liked how the curriculum pulled a variety of sources together and focused on practical examples. TLDR; Great investment for your time and money and this bootcamp will provide you the tools to provide value and leverage the power of data as a data analyst. I also think it forms a nice cornerstone for future learning (and continuing to build your own human capital!).

Great program - the mentorship and career support was really what set it over the top. Some of the technical units are a bit of a struggle with the data camp format, but the mentors are there to support you the whole way

It's a good introduction to the topic. It really depends on how much time you have to invest in the course and how do you get the most of your encounters with mentors and coaches.If you are not based in the US or Canada it gets demotivating to follow the track for the professional development part.

I like this boot camp because they have a great and good curriculum. It's really worked for me because it's flexible.

Total scam. The course was alright, but job assistance part is a complete scam. I am a Construction major and joined Springboard to switch career paths. I completed the course and the projects on time, but had no assistance with job search. 6 months passed and Springboard wouldn't even issue a refund. DO NOT BELIEVE all the reviews here. The students are forced to post reviews to receive course completion. Everything provided by Springboard is available online and for free. Save yourself money and choose another bootcamp. 

Springboard offers 1 on 1 mentorship which guide me through the technical material in the weekly calls and help me develop my technical skills for the industry.  On top of a fixed weekly mentor call, there are unlimited on-demand mentor calls that helps me resolve the technical issues when I went through the curriculum.  Springboard have curated the best resources which provided me with the best selection of content and the 2 capstone projects got me into the real world experience. The career service is strong, the career coach and placement service really help the student keep positive and work toward my goal.

PROS: for me, the key was introduction and use of new tools/skills in SQL, data visualization tools like Tableau and Power BI and python. These were used with helpful case examples.  I am really pleased that I completed the program and I am in a much better position to move forward professionally. It is an ambitious amount of work with several tools, mentors, advisors needed to succeed. 

The program is challenging and teaches a lot of key skills. Mentors working with you 1:1 weekly allows you to learn and improve based on your individual skill and need. Projects provide you with practical experience and a portfolio. Career skills are integrated to help you along the way. Career Coaches are helpful to target your search.

Mentor was the best part here after the curriculum. Enjoyed the overall learning new skills in Tableau, Python, SQL, how to approach the problem etc.Capstone Projects are the one where you can get a real feel of the overall usage of your learning. Supportive on line tech career coaches. 

Pros: Deferred Tuition         Good Curriculum         Work at your own pace         Job Guarantee         Unlimited Mentor CallsCons: No LIVE instructors.  All instruction is done via prerecorded videos.          No jobs set up immediately following graduation.  They should have partner firms who hire grads out of school immediately.          The student has to find their own job.          No immediate email or chatroom response.  If you call, you are most likely going to have to leave a vm and you may be                    responded to in a day or two.

I enrolled in this program to transition my career from recruiting to data analytics and it was very much worth it. It not only equip me with the technical skill-set required to function properly in the industry, but also helped me navigate through this transition smoothly. I recommend this program to everyone who's looking to kisk-start their career into the industry of Data Analytics.

The course was great! I liked that there was mentorship integrated into it. I got a mentor that I would meet with weekly and they would help you out. But in some of my cases, I would have a problem during the week and I couldn't reach my mentor. Luckily, Springboard has an unlimited mentorship where you can schedule to meet with one of their other mentor's whose main job is to help you out, and in some cases, you can see them as early as the same day. There is also a good slack community that can help you with feedback.

I had an arts degree, basic skills from the free codecademy python, and some experience in customer service. I did not think this would be successful, and thought that at best I'd get a job and at minimum I would get my money back and a bunch of new skills. Now, 4 days after I completed the course, I'm being hired at a dream company making almost double what I was making before. This may or may not happen to you. All I can say is, you have nothing to lose. You either do it and get the job, or you get all your money back. It has the potential to change your life, or you've learned an incredible amount of tech skills for free.The support system you will receive is unbelievably good. the career coaches I've talked to have all been amazing, I was assigned to a mentor that talked an hour with me every week, and I love the work that I do now. I have my constructive curriculum for the course, but overall they continue to update it and listen to student feedback, so if you're reading this a month, a year, or even further from now, I imagine it's an even better course than I got. There's nothing to lose and everthing to gain from this course.

This course was a fantastic learning experience for me, it not only helped me hone my skills in Python, Tableau, and Excel but also made me feel much more comfortable with what a data analyst actually does. My mentor gave me real world knowledge to see what his job is like, and always had answers to my questions. On top of his support there are chats, career mentors, and office hours all to support your education. SpringBoard is set up very well and lets you gain a lot of new knowledge. 

This program stands out because it offers an mentor who is an industry expert to help guide you through the course.  It also does a good job at teaching you how to “think” like a data analyst while still providing a strong foundation in all the technical skills
