Excellent Road Into Software

Jackson Tarlin graduated BrainStation

Created 1 day ago

I went into Brainstation to study web dev with some experience in coding through University, but little experience with html, Javascript, or React. Through a series of increasingly challenging projects, a team of supportive educators taught me everything I needed to start building my own web apps and sites. Technologies taught include html, css/scss, JavaScript, React, Node, Express, and mySQL. I was able to build websites as a freelancer directly after graduating, and even learned a thing or...See more

Pros

Cons

You can't think of this as a "free pass" to a career in tech. For one thing, it's a boot camp and will require an immense amount of effort of the course of several months to complete the coursework alone. To truly succeed, even more work...See more

Springboard UX / UI Career Track

Braden Bullock graduated Springboard

Created 3 days ago

Overall I had a very good experience with Springboard. Their curriculum is very thorough and provided a great knowledge base to work with in future careers and internships. Everyone that I have interacted with at Springboard has been very helpful and knowledgeable. I completed this program with an average of around 30 hours a week in 6 months. Be aware that if you do choose to do the internship that they set you up with, that will take a month to complete so make sure to schedule that in.

Pros

My mentor was very helpful and provided great feedback in our weekly calls. Springboard provided a company through which I was able to start an internship that has the potential of turning into a future employment opportunity which has...See more

Cons

The curriculum was a little light on the 'UI' portion of the UX / UI Design program which was sort of disappointing.
