4 Weeks, 4 Assignments, 8 Live Sessions

The UX training is designed to help you grow as a UX professional. We won’t be spending much time with the basics; instead, we’ll dive straight into complex UX challenges in complex environments — be it enterprise, governments or corporate world. That will keep us on our toes!

The Speaker

Every week, we’ll combine 2.5h live sessions with individual assignments. Of course, the live sessions will focus on insights from user research, case studies and best practices. But they will also highlight a specific UX technique or methodology that you can use to tackle a challenge at hand.

The highlight of the project will be in you applying all these insights in practice — by completing your individual weekly assignment. However, you won’t be alone in this: you’ll receive feedback from other participants, and you’ll be designing closely with Vitaly while getting personal 1:1 feedback as you make progress.

And if you have questions, there is also an Open Hour available for all your questions every week.
