My learning experience in UX Academy was fantastic! It was very practical, and I liked that we were also thought collaboration through the team project assigned.

It was intensive and productive course, lots of materials and awesome team B 🙂 I like all of this and I feel as well invested time in the necessary knowledge.

The course was very detailed and organized. I was really pleased with the quality of the course, as well as the administration. Pace - excellent, content - superb, good use of theory and very hands-on! The skills from this course will be really invaluable when as I start my UX design career.

The UX design course was an excellent investment in my development. I gained a greater understanding of user-centered design principles and also practical experience in creating effective digital experiences.

I feel like I have been thought about the basics of UX well enough by the teachers. It was interesting and engaging. The real life project was interesting and it was great to see how an ux project design works within a team. Ux Academy made me fell in love with the design world, thank you!

Thorough research of UX course offerings led me to believe the UX Academy was by far the best opportunity. Having completed the Beginner UX Design course, that belief is not only validated but even stronger. The material and pacing are just right, and the course instructors are not only experts in the field but kind and gracious leaders. It's hard to believe I went from slightly knowledgeable to feeling confident and experienced in just eight weeks!

Not only I learned a lot but also I had fun. Thank you very much for such a time!!

Coming to the course as a graphic designer, this was a great introduction to the world of UX and made it feel much more accessible as a viable career change option! The tutors are a wealth of knowledge and really supportive. I learned which areas of UX design I would be interested to work in/learn more about, and the different facets of work that might be involved day-to-day as a UX designer. It was also really rewarding working on the client brief and being able to deliver and validate our ideas to the client and for them to be really engaged and excited by what we'd done.

Thanks to a small class and to our instructor who adapted his course to fit our needs and seniority level, I learned about new tools and frameworks that I'm going to apply right away.

UX Academy was a great upskilling experiencing for me. The staff and instructors are all super pros, and getting to dive right into client work was perfect for a learn-by-doing student like myself. Highly recommended!

The UX Beginner course is a great introduction to the latest on UX design approaches and methods that are immediately applied to a real client based project within the course. I feel having gone through the experience I am more confident in working with UX teams and communicating ideas within distributed group. We used Figma and Miro for the first time and these were fundamental tools during the project - I loved the learning process that was integrated with a live project and great value for money.

I learnt a lot on this course, how to structure ones work properly as a UX designer, how to work within a team effectively, learnt how to use different software such as Miro for collaboration and Figma for prototyping and was provided a plethora of reading materials to further advance my knowledge.

UX Academy were able to provide me with the knowledge and skills to move forward with UX design in the confidence that I know how to work/develop as a designer.

This course was brilliant - I learnt so much and really enjoyed working in a team with other beginner UX Designers. Can't recommend this course enough for investing in your own development!

I have just completed the intro to UX course with UX Academy, and it was one of the best decisions I have ever made! I feel ready to go out into the world and get a job, doing a real life project alongside the lectures was really great (being taught how to do an exercise and then actually doing it) and a really good way to learn. The introduction to all the softwares was perfect, giving a good taster with enough time to learn the fine details outside of the class! All the staff I have been in contact with have been really helpful and so awesome. I recommend this course very highly, if you are thinking about doing UX design this is the course for you!

The 6 week VUI course is an opportunity to understand the nuances of voice based interactions whose time has come. I am glad i got to learn about voice user interface design from some of the industry’s best professionals like Ben Sauer and Stratis Valachis. We even had our work reviewed by Goncalo Andrade another trainer and expert in this field. I was the only student from India in this November 2020 batch, but loved the mix of participants from across the globe. They brought in amazing ideas which makes me dive deeper into this field now. All in all, an amazing learning experience at UX Academy and I strongly recommend it to all who want to add value to their careers and create something meaningful in this space.

This course covers everything you need to know to start VUI design. Great and experienced instructors, real projects and a lot more... Highly recommended!

Led by industry experts the course gave an incredibly insightful look into the world of UX design and design thinking. The course is well laid out which gives students real experience by working with real clients, and teaching UX disciplines. On top of that, the tutors and mentors are extremely friendly and are always willing to help

Very informative beginner class. Sparked my interest!

The program is well suited for beginners and to handle basic projects in a linear way. The teachers are good and clear and available to provide feedback on our work, it really feels we’re in a team and they want us to progress. I’m very satisfied and feel like I could start to work as a beginner in UX design tomorrow.

Whole team of UX Academy was supportive along the whole course. Quickly reacting, offering information and help. I am really impressed by the level of competence presented by the teacher. And of course what cannot be overestimated, providing contact with real clients and engaging students in developing real products, this is a very important and valuable factor of this curse.

The course was very engaging and I enjoyed learning about Product Design. I already had pass knowledge about UX but this course helped plug in the gaps and help me become a stronger UX/ product designer. The teachers were very good at explaining all the different elements and stages and were very approachable. It’s a great course.

This course is extremely informative and really helped prepare me with real life experience in designing a product for a client. The teachers are very knowledgeable and tailor the course to fit all levels of experience. I recommend it to anyone who is looking to help you take the next steps into bettering your career path.

An end to end process. UX Academy provides a holistic view into the world of UX, from research to synthesis, from wireframing to prototyping and then testing in an interative process.

The course has been absolutely fantastic. The teachers have been brilliant and very attentive with concerns within the course and project. Definitely recommend this course for obtaining real life experience and developing a grounding in UX.

A good course for Product/UX/UI beginners to get started.

This was first time I undertook an online course and I was unsure if this would work for me in contrast to learning in person, however, overall I have been impressed with the quality of teaching and the knowledge about UX I have gained.

I really enjoyed my training with UX Academy for the UX Product design course which opened my eyes more on how product should be treated before launching into the market for better services and customers happiness. I say thank you to my amiable instructors who really did justice to the course. God bless you all.

I was so impressed with UX Academy. The content is expansive and the instructors are extremely knowledgeable. The course setup is well thought out and its fantastic you get to work on a real-life product. I’ve done a few courses and this is by far up there with the best. You feel well prepared for stepping into a role as a Product Designer. It’s great value for money.

You as UX academy did great in giving first insights into the world of Voice Design! I enjoyed being a student and learning from you!

I really enjoyed learning about the job of a UX designer and would recommend the course to anyone looking into the field.

I expected to get an insight into the workflow in conversational design. But I have got so much more out of the course. They gave me so many technical tools in my hands that I will need some time to go through all the videos and practice a bit more. Thank you, guys!

I came out of the course with the knowledge and confidence to apply what I have learned to my current role. I feel this has given me a great opportunity to pivot my career towards an exciting future in voice design.

I have enjoyed learning the theory and practical skills needed to feel confident to enter the world of UX Design. I highly recommend the Beginners UX Design Course and the course tutors are so knowledgable and approachable.

A fantastic course offering great value for time and money. You will learn loads and meet some fantastic people.

I am very happy about taking the UX beginners course. I must mention Adrian who’s been a great support right from the beginning and throughout. The course instructors Stratis and Giulia are super knowledgeable and they make you feel very welcome. Nothing is ever too much trouble for them. Everyone at UX academy wants you to succeed. I would recommend anyone that wants to learn about UX contact any staff member. Ask questions and even attend the free webinars they have. It has been a welcomed distraction during the lockdown. I hope we can all meet up in person one day.

I’m very happy taking the Beginner Course with UX Academy and I genuinely feel that I have a great and solid understanding of basic UX skills I can now build upon. The teachers were amazing, and they also gave us a great insight into the industry and the possible career options in UX.

An inspiring and very passionate set of teachers guided us through our journey through UX learning.

I am very satisfied! The quality of teaching is at the best standards, the teachers are very committed and it’s fun!

I found the course really engaging and insightful. The tutors have a wealth of knowledge to share, and the opportunity to work through a live brief is invaluable. I’d highly recommend this course to anyone interested in a career in UX.

Before joining the UX Intermediate Course in London, my user research toolkit was pretty limited to interviewing customers (with varying levels of success). Drafting explicit hypotheses, structuring effective ideation exercises and synthesising the findings are some of my key takeaways from the course. The best thing was to have access to teachers who are also experiment practitioners, full of pro tips around how to both get the job (career-wise) and do the job (skills wise). It gives that type of confidence that anyone investing in a product design (or even product, more broadly) career needs. Super useful and recommended.

Having done both the Beginner and Intermediate UX design courses, they gave me confidence and sparked my passion for UX. I have now taken this knowledge and put it into place at my work and personal life in the form of building a website for my family business. All of the teachers were very knowledgeable and open to questions. They also had immense patience and great real-life examples. I am so happy to have been part of the course and to have met many wonderful people. I’d definitely recommend it!

The VUI course was exceptional. In two days it covered everything we’d hoped to learn from high-level theory to a detailed understanding of human linguistics and building our own voice skills. The instructors were obviously very knowledgeable of the voice space and really hands on. Would highly recommend the course.

I strongly suggest this Intermediate UX Course to anyone who wants to learn Google Design Sprint. It is really useful in terms of developing personal and soft skills. Furthermore, it can be an alternative for people who don’t have time for a lengthy course as lectures start conveniently after 6 pm. Lastly, when compared to other UX courses in London, the price is quite competitive.

I’m so glad I did this Designing for Voice Course. All the tutors were massively helpful and were really great teachers. I’ve gained a new skill set which I’ve already found ways to apply to my current job that I hope I continue to explore in the future.

I would definitely recommend this Intermediate UX Course to anyone considering furthering their knowledge and practical skills in this field. The workload is well designed for anyone with a full-time job. The course followed a good progression for revolutionary design. I will definitely be using what I was taught this a lot in the future.

It’s a great course for anyone who would like to get into the emerging technological field of Voice Design. Two tutors, Stratis and Goncalo, have significant experience in Voice Design working for reputable companies. They are friendly and massively helpful in guiding us through design challenges and give helpful suggestions to set our projects in the right direction. The content that’s been prepared and presented in the course is a really good start for newcomers to get your head around Voice design.t our projects in the right direction. The content that’s been prepared and presented in the course is a really good start for newcomers to get your head around Voice design.

With 3 years of UX Design experience, the course was a great way of consolidating all my knowledge and putting in practice all the theory I had learned. The main difference between this course and a University course is the approach. This program is much more industry-oriented. In fact, we worked on a project from the very start to the end, carefully building every single part, in order to create a good study showcase. This will allow me to add a great piece to my portfolio.

I think my favourite moment on the course was the introduction to creativity exercises. As an example, we took a random object and used its properties to generate a much broader range of design references for our service. Our object was a silver toy aeroplane that was also a pen and, as a result, we ended up focusing more clearly on whether our service needed to be tangible and what ethos of interaction it would bring for the user. We asked different types of questions: Would it be sleek or modular? What would the balance of play and function be?

As a startup founder and product manager, the UX Academy helped me to understand how designers think. The training improved the way I work with designers.

One of the most valuable aspects of the course was gaining a better understanding of the break down of the different stages of the User Experience and having the chance to put each of them to the test in teams. Working in a start-up, we go through most of the stages informally but it has been very helpful knowing how to run through things in a more structured manner.

The course has given me food for thought. I’m still as in love with UX as before, so that’s good. It’s given me ideas for where to find decent resources and how to use them. Now that I have completed the course I will be more confident to challenge people’s assumptions when we are building new products, and I feel more confident that this is the right path for me. ‘It is better to learn something than to be right’ – I’ll be carrying this phrase with me from now on!

I’ve recently completed the brilliant UX Academy course run by Mobile UX London. With many UX courses popping up all the time, here are a few of my thoughts on this particular course. Firstly, it was great user experience. Having already been working as a Junior UX Designer for a few months, the course was a great way of consolidating all my knowledge. It also allowed me to brush up on areas in which I haven’t worked on as much.

As a project manager from a development background, now that I have a better understanding of the basics of UX, I can make more informed hiring decisions and communicate more effectively with UX professionals to make sure the products we put out have optimal UX designs.

The MUXL 8 weeks training course is a great introduction for a beginner looking to work in the field or anyone curious about the UX industry. The scope of topics covered by four industry experts ranged from ideation, flow creation, wireframing basics, usability testing methods, and stakeholder management. Each three-hour workshop held once a week involved a trainer presenting their topics of expertise followed by a series of team exercises to expand on what was learned.

The course was a really good introduction and overview to UX. It presented all elements of the process from inception to completion.The course also presented the opportunity to work through an idea while learning important concepts.

The interaction was really good – I also really appreciated the resources as it was good to go over them after the course. Sometimes it’s hard to take all of the information in, having the resources allowed me to do so in my spare time.

Learn and do. Amazing to working on a real-world project through out the learning process as this really brings the UX principles to life giving your portfolio a boost. Friendly and knowledgeable teachers, and supportive mentorship throughout.
