Online learning company Springboard is launching its first data science bootcamp, the Data Science Career Track. The course, which costs between $4,800-$6,000 depending on payment method, promises graduates a job upon completion or a 100 percent refund. (According to Springboard, 50 out of 50 tracked graduates found jobs within six months at places including Amazon, Pandora and Boeing.) The self-paced course takes about 8 to 10 hours a week and runs for around five to six months. Through weekly mentor meetings and 24-7 teaching assistants, students learn skills such as statistics, Python, SQL and Hadoopfor. Springboard also pairs students with a career coach to help with interview prep, resume writing, and building connections to employers.
