Emily, UX Designer @ AIB

"I really enjoyed the programme overall. I liked that we were able to pick a project that was our own choice and we were interested in. My prototyping skills improved significantly, as did my research abilities and knowledge."

Craig Tyner, UX Designer

"I found the course to be brilliant, both for skills and general UX knowledge. I was also lucky enough to have been given a UX industry project giving me the chance to talk to a huge number of UX designers. If you were looking for a short, sharp course to build a unique UX case study, this stands out as exceptional and authentic amongst a field of mass-appeal online courses."

Tofunmi Awodein, UX Designer

"Getting regular feedback from my mentor and other mentors was very helpful. I learnt a lot about the proper structure of UX projects and how to approach them with them intentionally with the double diamond method."

Sami, UX Designer @ Each&Other

"I loved it! Working alongside my mentor while going through each step of the UX process allowed me to upskill and grow my confidence! Having someone to bounce ideas off of really opens up another perspective.."

Debbie Shonowo, UX Researcher

"I really enjoyed the programme, although I wish there was a bit more interaction between mentors & mentees, or even mentees and mentees, I understand that it takes a team effort to become a team. But I’d recommend maybe some more ice breakers to get to know everyone else a bit more and soften the tension or shall I say “shyness” in the group chats."

Mark, UX Designer

"I cannot overstate how helpful this program has been. It has raised my whole UX game entirely. What I especially appreciated was the chance to interact with experts as well as other mentees."

Davinn Quinn, UX Designer

"I think the course was great and well structured. The biggest learning for me came towards the end of the project, I had to do a second round of research and testing that could have been done during the initial research stge giving me more time to design."

Lachlan, UX Designer @ Eason

"UX tree mentorship was a fantastic experience. Everyone was so nice and supportive. I feel lucky to have been able to meet other designers within this field and this programme provided the perfect way to do that."

Shaun, UX Designer @ Laya

"The UX tree program has been a great opportunity for me to learn from others and expand my network. I couldn't have gotten the kind of insight I did from a college course. "

Aoife, UX Designer @ Elsevier

"I love the way it is not focused specifically on entry-level/junior designers to learn about UX and more about up-skilling and learning from other highly experienced UX mentors to grow the skills you already have.."

Niamh, UX Designer @ IBM

"As a career changer, this program was invaluable to help grown my confidence, skills and network in the UX industry. I improved my design and presentation skills, discovered new methods and became more confident."

Martina Turjak, UX Researcher

"I have connected with many people from the industry.I have learned so much from other mentors. The most valuable thing was exchanging information when it comes to tools, resources and ideas."
