What's on

This practical workshop will teach you digital copywriting skills and basic content strategy techniques.

The idea is to get you to think like a content designer: from how to structure text and write plain English to decluttering text and content strategy.

One-to-one mentoring is available additionally to the course: we'll review your portfolio, provide career advice, salary insights, and prepare you for that interview.

Who runs it

As a graphic designer I wanted to gain more of an insight into the world of UX/UI design and I was definitely given the knowledge and tools to be able to apply them into my day to day role.

Shauna

I took this course as a content designer wanting to learn more about UI and UX. Most other courses don't offer certificates but this one did. So it's great to have actual evidence to place on my CV, LinkedIn and online portfolio.

I did the UX writing course and it was exactly what I needed. I'm looking forward to finishing the UX/UI cycle with the school of ux and upping this to a 5-star review.

What we'll cover

writing and editing skills/digital copywriting: tips and tricks for taking bad, boring corporate speak copy into something that works for users and helps with SEO. Lots of practical exercises on front-loading and decluttering text and writing headings, links and in plain English etc.
think like a journalist: a lot of content designers started as journalists, trained to look at information critically, filling in the holes and checking the logic.
working with stakeholders: advice on working with stakeholders on copy. It’s kind of train the trainer – showing how to make stakeholders confident that you know what you’re doing if you edit their bad copy!
plus some basic content strategy to underpin any project
