Feedback from our Students

“I signed up for this course to improve my design and research skills. I learned many things that can directly be used in real-world working environment. I also loved the practical assignments after each module – allowing me to review what I had learned and applying that to practical tasks. I am especially thankful to my mentor for the detailed feedback, help, and encouragement throughout the course.

And the best thing is – I got the chance to work on a real project, where I could learn from my mentor and other mentees, get the feeling of how working in UX team looks like, and in the end – I can also add this to my working experience!”
