This course instilled in me a UX process which I could always fall back on when dealing with ambiguity, and ultimately helped me figure out my own process to follow when dealing with ANY user problem that comes my way. This course helped me figure out... Read More how to convince stakeholders at work to integrate UX into our core values, which is extremely valuable.

This course provides exactly the right amount of theoretical knowledge to get you in a great position to get your next UX role - not too much information just for the sake of it, but covering all aspects that you’ll need in real world application and...

There’s great support from staff available on their slack channel Monday - Friday or from other students 24/7, and loads of live seminars giving feedback on work before you submit it, or from professionals on specific topics. Only negative is I wish there was more content on accessibility, as this is something I ended up teaching myself as it’s such a crucial part of the design process, so I was disappointed not to see that.

I learned a great deal about how UX design fits into the wider scheme of business and I learned how to embrace the importance of the branch. This increased my knowledge by acknowledging the min core of the profession - understanding the user. I'm appreciative... Read More e of the skillet I got from this program.

Pros: - Self-pace: You have complete freedom to control the time frame. For my academic year, there is no penalty if you delay to submit your assignment or delay to take the exam. - Good support: You will be invited to a Slack channel that is dedicated... Read More for the students and staff in UX Design Institute after you paid for the course. You can ask any type of questions, e.g. assignment, career, feedback for portfolio. - Responsive and knowledgeable staff: The members of staff in the Institute are quite responsive. Unless it is public holiday / sick leave, they reply your questions pretty quick within 1-2 hours if they are not extremely complicated. - High transparency: I know who to go to for when I have particular area of questions, e.g. career, exam, events. - Great events: The institute invites experts to talk about the UX industry and the events are quite interactive which allow participants to ask questions. Cons: - Outdated course materials: Most of the materials are related to the topic of UX but the software demonstration on the module about prototype is out of date. I took the course in 2021 and the demo was shown on a software in 2018 version. I struggled a lot as a beginner as the software's feature, interface and functions have changed A LOT. I ended up self-taught everything from Youtube and with endless experiments. Technologies have advanced so quickly that the Institute should keep up the trend. - No 1:1 mentor: It is good to have the Slack Channel to discuss issues but no one are dedicated to answer your questions. If you want to have a person to guide and teach you through the projects, I recommend you to hire a mentor outside the Institute. - Little guidance: The assignment were scored simply with pass/fail. I wish there would be someone talked to me about what I needed to improve. - Too little project: I wish the course could be more intensive, like having 2-3 projects which last for a year to build up my portfolio. The course only requires students to complete 1 project, which I don't think this will increase too much employability in the job market. It really rely on students' motivation. (Actually, it is two sides of the same coin - You could say the course was easy to finish because the course is not intense.)

The course is great to introduce you to UX in a friendly and structured way. Videos are greatly explained and they provide additional resources to keep learning outside videos. They have a slack channel where you can post questions, get feedback, access... Read More to resources etc. The more people shares, the better! However, I believe personal feedback throughout the course could be improved in their emails... They send you an email saying "You passed" after each project, but it doesn't actually say any score.. so you really don't know where you could improve or if it was excellent or just okay. Apart from that, it was a great experience and I recommend it to anyone who is looking for a course that covers the basics and a little bit more!

The online learning structure was well presented and was in perfect balance with all the practical projects; each video module gave you all the necessary content to learn UX, even as a novice. The videos were clear and insightful giving great everyday... Read More examples to explain UX, this gave me the confidence to complete my projects and enjoy doing them. I've felt like I've gained an immense amount of career changing knowledge! The tutors marked projects fairly and gave useful feedback, their honest critique was very beneficial and often gave insight to improve the current project or help when approaching the next. In all, the UX Design Institute team were extremely helpful, accommodating and friendly while been very professional. They were always quick to answer your questions, help with any course issues and would go out of their way to get you through the course and projects - they really went that extra mile!

I have been working as a business analyst for a long time and wanted to broaden my skills to also include the UX design process and techniques.
