CareerFoundry was the most PERFECT choice for me!
Quitting my stable job to do a boot camp for web development was not an easy choice so I definitely took my time researching the right boot camp. Honestly, I have not regretted choosing CareerFoundry ever since I joined. I was so lucky to have been paired with such an amazing mentor who LOVES to teach, and that’s really hard to find sometimes.

I also got lucky with my tutor who’s always available to help even though I know he’s also busy with his own life and other students, but he always manages to find time to help me. The student advisors are genuinely there to help you succeed so when I was having a hard time in my personal life, they understood and tried to help me out. Even just with advice to keep me going, they were there. I am so appreciative of CareerFoundy because I’m learning so much from their curriculum. Although I’m not finished with my entire course, I truly am grateful for everything CareerFoundry has offered me so far!

Learning with CareerFoundry was one of the best choices I have ever made. It helps you get to experience with HTML, CSS, and JS which are the three essentials to build websites. If you are willing to put in some hours, then CF is undoubtedly the best option for you.
CareerFoundry's online program is great for me because I can structured my time as I like it. I like that I'm learning by doing and that I will have 3 projects for my portfolio at the end of the program. Even though I don't have access to its Job Preparation Course yet (You have access to it upon 50% completion of your main program.), I'm impressed with the career specialist with whom I've interacted so far.
I am halfway through CareerFoundry's UX course, and my experience couldn't have been better! The curriculum is well-designed, so even career changers like me can follow it, and having 2 experts in the field helping me along the way is super helpful and supportive. Student support is excellent, with attentive student advisors I can reach out to no matter what the issue. I highly recommend this course to anyone getting started in UX :)
This program is really great for anyone looking to make a career pivot to UX Design. It's much cheaper than some other programs and the lessons are comparable.

This program is really great for anyone looking to make a career pivot to UX Design. It's much cheaper than some other programs and the lessons are comparable. The course content is organized well and I love having access to the Slack channel to help other students with assignments and learn from other students' projects. My tutor and mentor are both amazing in answering my questions on time, making sure I'm understanding the material and providing other resources to explore. The only issue I've had is that some of the lessons are a little vague in their explanations of concepts. Examples that have been chosen to illustrate certain concepts are oftentimes very different from each other and can be contradictory, so it can be confusing understanding which is the more right way to do things. But the course does a great job providing additional resources and my tutor also helps clear up my confusions. Overall, I definitely recommend!
I'm currently about 3 months into the Data Analysis course through CareerFoundry. I work full time and have two children, so flexibility was important for me in searching for the correct program.

The data analytics program is designed to introduce and provide the student with the mindset and skills to effectively conduct and communicate data analyses processes to relevant stakeholders. I have found the course materials to be relatively straightforward and easy to follow. My specific circumstances give me the ability to commit 6-8 hours per day to the program, which allowed me to move through the introduction to data analytics program fairly quickly. At this stage I am progressing through the data immersion exercises, and currently completing the visualization exercise acquiring skills in the use of the Tableau platform. I have found the hands on tasks at the end of each exercise to be helpful for strengthening and retaining skills in each domain; the tasks have been engaging, and most encourage the use of critical thinking skills based on the information learned from the exercise. My tutor has been responsive and encouraging, and has provided further support and resources on the occasion when I may have overlooked or misunderstood something in the exercise. My mentor has been similar supportive and to date has provided detailed feedback pertaining to submissions. The exercises also provide examples of other students work for reference, which has been helpful at times when I have gotten confused with a task. I'm looking forward to gaining more hands on experience with SQL and Python, and ultimately engaging with a career counselor to meet my objective of making a career change into the field of data analytics.
I reviewed several options of how to launch my UX career change journey, and I'm glad I chose CareerFoundry for my UX Design Journey. The design of the class portal is super easy to use and know what is up ahead or review the progress you've made in the course. The student community on slack is so welcoming and students are open to help out and connect with others. I'm about half way through, and I can't wait to get to the job prep portion.

Careerfoundry also asks for feedback all the time. It's amazing to see how much they want to listen and make changes that work for their students!

The course is in depth and you’ll learn a tremendous amount of UX, the course itself is broken down into many tasks, my goal everyday is “complete one task” and I’m getting through it rather quickly now.

I signed up for the Full Stack Web Development program as I already graduated from CF UI Design program with great experiences (though no job in the end).
I have to say, although their design program is worth it, the development one is just the opposite. First of all, there is a great distinction in CF team behavior to you depending on if you pay on your own versus if your course is paid by unemployment agency.

I signed up for the Full Stack Web Development program as I already graduated from CF UI Design program with great experiences (though no job in the end).
I have to say, although their design program is worth it, the development one is just the opposite. First of all, there is a great distinction in CF team behavior to you depending on if you pay on your own versus if your course is paid by unemployment agency. When I was paying on my own, the team was cordial and I managed to change my mentor with no big explanations. However, now that I am studying through unemployment agency, even though I do not have positive experience with my tutor, all my feedbacks are in vain.
Some things that bother me the most:
- Complete lack of support. I often lose 2-3 days on one task jsut because my tutor is not availabe during normal working hours. I have to stay logged in until midnight in order to try to communicate to him. He is responding to my chat messages only briefly and often this is not enough to solve the problem. Actually, he has been of zero actual support to me, only giving out links that I can (and do) find myself. Imagine solving one task whole day and then trying to resolve some issues until midnight (because your tutor has better things to do than to tutor you) and even that is not helping because he replies maybe once in an hour!! This means I am sitting endlessly in front of my computer trying to wait for a single reply, which then usually consist of brief sentence with a link to stackoverflow, youtube or whatever!!
- Consequence of this total lack of support is that I have to pay for extra tutoring from external people. Yes, that is correct. Because as AfA student, I have no time to waste and I cannot wait 2 days for my tutor to communicate with me, for the tasks I get stuck on I have to pay another person who can tutor me and explain me what is the issue. Yes, you do get mentor calls, but they are LIMITED. You only get 12 calls for the entire course of 50 tasks -and trust me development is hard!! When I asked Student advisors if it is possible to get extra calls, they flatly refused. They do not care about student's opinion at all, when you are not the one who is direclty paying them.
- Curriculum is OK and you do learn a lot, but it is expected that you will learn JS from zero to hero in 3 weeks or so, then React in 2 weeks, etc. This is impossible in such a short time, therefore I am paying additional courses on Udemy so I can keep track with the curriculum demands. I found better support on Udemy actually, because when I post some issues there I get sensible and helpful reply from course leader, which is usually not the case with my tutor.
- My tutor (again him, yes) is often rejecting my tasks even though I did the same as other students did (as a student you can see 3 approved examples made by other students as a guideline). We all get same tasks and same curriculum. I do not understand why I need to do more than others (for some tasks)!? When I asked my tutor how come I need to do X and Y which other students did not do, his response was that maybe their tutors overlooked this (!?). I have 3 references of same solution, so how can it be possible that 3 tutors made the same overlooking mistake for 3 different people??
- My mentor was initially non-responsive to my messages (would only accept call requests), but he did change his behavior when I pointed this out to him and is now much more helpful. However, I still have only 9 calls left with him and more than half of the course to go, so I know I will not have enough calls with him until the end of the course. Then I guess I will just have to pay to someone else if I get majorly stuck (my progress is watched by the unemployment agency so there is no leeway), which is of course not mentor's fault, it is the limitation of the course itself. In comparison, when I was paying on my own, I think I even unlimited calls with. my mentor (or at least much more than here - but this info I should double-check as I graduated already some time ago from the first course).
All in all, while I know that I will make it through this course because I did learn some basic development before on Udemy and some initial knowledge helped me to progress faster in the beginning, I would not recommend this course for Bildungsgutschein students, nor for beginners. Getting feedback as a beginner developer is extremely important because many things can go wrong that are beyong your control (especially when you are facing the topic 1st time in your life) and I am extremely disappointed by how they treat me as a student. And yes, I did send my feedbacks to their Feedback team many times and I also leave review and feedbacks after each lesson (maybe that will help other students if not me).
