    THE WORD FROM GA GRADS

    “
    “I made some really great connections and learned so much from GA. It's the extra push I needed to get into UX/UI over traditional visual design. I'm ecstatic to have a credible portfolio piece molded by feedback from my peers and teachers. My instructor even helped me negotiate a new contract as a UI designer.”

You’ll also deliver a final presentation, which can serve as a case study for stakeholders, future employers, and your portfolio.

    We encourage you to tackle a user experience design challenge that’s related to your work or a passion project you’ve been meaning to carve out time for.
