UX/UI Course Syllabus
How The Course Works
Time Is Taken Out Of The Learning Equation
Our program is mastery-based, meaning that you move forward through curriculum once you have mastered each lesson, regardless of how long it takes. You will pass each module with an assessment with your instructor to progress through the program.
Mastery Based Learning
You graduate by landing a job, not just complete the program. Curriculum is designed by industry leaders and tailored to your life schedule and prior experience to get you job-ready as soon as possible.
Time Based Learning
This is the slowest and most expensive way into the UX/UI field. The industry standards and needs will change multiple times within the four years it takes to earn a degree.
