We're extremely grateful to be able to offer this course free of charge through Yrkeshögskolan in Sweden. However, we were granted this – very much last minute for us – due to an extension of the fall 2023 governmental budget. At this point we are not granted any more course starts except this one. Therefore this is a limited edition and a massive opportunity for anyone who has wanted to take our boot camps but felt that they are not looking for a complete career change or do not have the means to join otherwise. Join now or regret it forever.
This is a full-time course. For those of you that are familiar with us from before you know that we normally do high intensity boot camps. In comparison, this will be a more "normal" course tempo adjusted to profesionals. The workload will correspond to 40 hours a week where you can plan a lot of the time yourself.
This course is designed for you to be able to apply UX design methods on your current job – you will not become a full-featured UX designer. If you are interested in a career change to UX design we recommend our UX design boot camp.
Simply put, we don't know. This course curriculum is a bit smaller than our boot camps and with a slightly other angle. We're not closing the door for that possibility but are not making promises either.
We know that exploring and experimenting is key to learn new skills. We always focus on the how and to spark that creativity.
Everything we teach is mirroring how the industry works. We teach modern industry standard tools, methods and knowledge.
Expect to work in teams, discuss, give feedback to others. Together we are stronger. After our trainings you will be better equipped to keep up-to-date with the latest and to be an inspiration to your peers.
