Not exactly, a curriculum but we (Class Central) are publishing a six-part career guide that recommends the best courses in Data Science. So far three parts have been published.

Part 1: The Best Intro to Programming Courses for Data Science [1]

Part 2: The Best Statistics & Probability Courses for Data Science [2]

Part 3: The Best Intro to Data Science Courses [3]

I've been curious about Springboard's "Data Science Career Track" program. Does anyone have any experience with Springboard they can share?

https://www.springboard.com/workshops/data-science-career-tr...

hey, i'm a community manager for this course. independent contractor, as opposed to working directly for springboard (so try to be pretty unbiased). Happy to help any way i can.

I think the career track grew out of the "Data Science Intensive" course so similar curriculum but much more focus on the job related side and more hands on in terms of helping students going through the process of looking for work in this area.

Anyway - you are probably looking for past students as opposed to someone like me but just reply if any specific questions i can help with.

Dr. Bandyopadhyay looks well-credentialed to be announcing/leading this with MS & PhD CompSci from Rice and good bit of postgrad & work experience to boot:

Am I missing something simple? Trying to view the curriculum, the site is expecting me to log into a Google account...

As part of an ever-shrinking minority that avoids using anything "Google", am I just out of luck on this?

ETA: Two hours ago, this was not the case. Looks like they just now added some Google-account-holders-only validation.

i think if you click login in top right corner you can then press sign up and use a username/password that way if you want.

Ding-ding-ding! That's the ticket. I just didn't look around close enough.

Thanx muchly
