          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 moulded by feedback from my peers and teachers. My instructor even helped me negotiate a new contract as a UI designer.”

          For your final project, you’ll work on a real-world UX design problem, applying all the concepts and tools learned in the UK UX design course to a product of your choice. You’ll get hands-on practice with each step in the UX process and create professional standard documentation spanning personas, information architecture, user flows, wireframes, and more. You’ll also deliver a final presentation, which can serve as a case study for stakeholders, future employers, and your portfolio.

          You’ll be expected to spend time working on homework and projects outside of class each week, but the workload is designed to be manageable with a full-time job.
