The learning experience this provides is rigorous, project-based, and adaptive—designed to empower you to acquire all the job-ready skills you’ll need to break into your new career.
The full journey is split into four parts: Intro to UI Design, UI Immersion, your choice of one specialization (Frontend Development for Designers, Voice User Interface Design, or Animation for UI Designers), and Job Preparation. This setup ensures you start out with the basics, and finish as an expert in UI design with specialized knowledge and a professional portfolio with real-world projects to set you apart in the job market. You’ll also have a solid approach to your job search, and the ongoing support of CareerFoundry’s Career Services Team as you apply for jobs and prepare for interviews.

I took Career Foundry's UX design immersion course while working full-time as a customer service representative. It was the best program I could find that was flexible enough to accomplish this without sacrificing quality.
The mentorship is amazing and was one of the best ways to get value for the more than $10k spent. Career Foundry gives you a job guarantee too which no bootcamp in Canada offers. The job preparation module and specialization course were other benefits I appreciated.
The only thing that made me hesitate was that not many people in Canada know Career Foundry. I interviewed instructors and spoke to employers and the school's reputation in Europe is very good. Employers hiring for UX roles also didn't seem to care where I studied, only that my portfolio and skills were strong.
If you're self motivated and serious about UX design, mark my words, this program will get you a good job as a UX designer. Within 2 months of graduation I had an offer for $70,000 in Toronto at a growing tech company.

This experience got me my first job as a data analyst! The mentor and tutor were what made this program what it is, in addition to curriculum that gives you a solid well-rounded foundation in data and a lot of job preparation. The community is also amazing, with so many people on Slack and LinkedIn ready to ask for help and share help along the way. I graduated with a very strong portfolio that was unique, unlike some other schools that give everyone the same project. The other factor for me was the job guarantee, which gave me the courage to take the leap. Never looking back!

You will receive a certificate when you complete the course to make your new qualifications easy for employers to see.
