Pros: Flexible, thoughtful sequencing of curriculum, and helpful mentors/advisors/community Cons: the analytics track SHOULD have intro to machine learning. Consequential presentations should be taped. How are the mentors and coaches trained? IMO the career coach experience should be a bit more stream-lined where experience/expertise/professionalism should feel similar. How are the trainers trained? This should some how be communicated. The SQL module has room for improvement. Perhaps consider another vendor aside/in addition to Data Camp? FEELS like there is a missing learning piece between the “introduction” and “intermediate” section Springboard administers. The excel module should delve in to basic macros in addition to pivots. Both are valuable and seem to be in demand.

Well, overall, the course is well designed with 3 components, self-paced curriculum, community in slack and mentorship. Keep you on track on your progress steadily. As for curriculum, I like the spiral learning method that visiting the same topic multiple times from easy to hard. However, some of stuff you still need external reading to help you connect the dots of knowledge points in order to move on. As for community, it's helpful. You can throw any question you have. As for mentorship, quickly you will find out that half hour a week is too short to have all you question to be answered. The mentor is experienced, knowledgeable and supportive.
