"Decent Bootcamp"

Pros:
I’m overall satisfied with my experience in Springboard’s UI/UX bootcamp. The course materials were comprehensive, and I learned a lot from both the content and the guidance of my mentors and career coaches. Their feedback on assignments and mock... Read More

Cons:
The course materials were mostly curated from existing online sources like articles and YouTube videos. While Springboard organizes them so you don’t have to figure out what to read or watch, much of it felt like walls of text, which made getting through them tedious. Some resources also felt outdated—up to five years old—so I wish Springboard would update the content more frequently or develop more original material of their own. Since most of the content is free online, it feels like the bulk of your tuition really goes toward having a mentor. My mentor did provide assignment feedback and answered questions, but the interaction was limited to that. One negative experience I had was that during two consecutive calls, my mentor was on her phone while I was asking questions, which forced me to repeat myself.

I haven’t had my first career coaching call for job support yet, so I’ll remain neutral on that part of the program for now.
