A 500 Startups portfolio company, Springboard offers high quality education through a combination of online coursework and 1:1 mentorship from industry experts. Springboard's agency selection stems from a number of relevant, successful PR initiatives in support of respected online education programs from UNC Chapel Hill, Syracuse University, UC Berkeley, University of Southern California, and other universities as well as professional development platforms covering topics ranging from data science and coding to business management and communications.

As agency of record, Resound will apply its signature style of PR storytelling to generate press traction and elevate awareness of Springboard and its offerings, with a focus on user success stories, curriculum and platform demos, and thematic storylines centered on best practices and thought leadership. A major component of the program will also be to generate awareness for its course guides including A Beginners Guide to Careers in UX Design, A Beginner's Guide to Getting Your First Data Science Job, and their new Ultimate Guide to Data Science Interviews. Resound will leverage its range of experience placing stories across mainstream business, HR, career, education, and technology media.
