About this workshop

With the rise of AI bringing a rise in the need for tech talent, now is the time to break into UX Design. But don’t take our word for it, the Nielsen Norman Group. predicts growth from one million to 100 million UX pros between 2017 - 2050. We like the sound of that.

We’ll cover the fundamentals of design thinking from understanding how UX Design helps businesses improve their bottom line, to defining each phase of the UX Double Diamond: Discover, Define, Design, and Deliver.

By the end of this workshop, you’ll be ready for next week’s session where you’ll learn how to Master User Research and Interviews to get to the bottom of what your user needs and wants. We’ll see you there.
