What's on

Many designers like to jump into UI design before understanding actual business and user problems — and then we end up with «UX on crutches».

There's a better way to create useful (and usable) products and services with facts-based design, where you could validate your design ideas with end-users, rather than solely relying on gut feel.

This practical workshop run by a professional designer with 15+ years of experience, remotely via live video (not recordings) with practical exercises and lots of Q&A.

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

Who runs it

Chimmy from Nigeria 🇳🇬 – Senior UX designer who has experience working with British Airways, Vogue and WorldRemit. Particular interest in accessibility.

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.

This was a fantastic week of learning. Each tutor was incredibly helpful. Would highly recommend to anyone wanting to start a career in UX and or UI.

Izzy

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.
