your resume after training
Anne Poulsen
UX/UI Designer course
"The amount of useful knowledge is just off the charts! I didn't have this even at a creative university in London. Guys-mentors and it support in general deserve separate applause, because such responsiveness and speed of problem solving I have not met on any course!

The ux designer course is designed for 9 months, but only 5 months have passed, and I am already actively sending out resumes to work in this specialty. The knowledge gained really gives you the ability to confidently make design decisions, and most importantly understand why so!

"Never got involved with online schools before. However, I insanely wanted to pump up my skills and gain new knowledge so that I could do what I love to do.. I guess that was the point in my thinking, and I bought the courses. Payment in installments, of course, caused some problems and difficulties, but this is the problem of the bank and its work, not the school.

As for the training. I took a course on Web Design, so I will talk about it. The whole course is divided into semantic blocks, we went through Figma, Photoshop, Tilda. There were a lot of practical lessons and that's great. Actually the course gives not only understanding how to work with the programs, but also shows a lot of important chips in the work of a designer. Probably, for people who have never worked with design and visual images in their lives, it will be more difficult, but you can master all the programs, that's for sure. There was also a lot of theory, which is really cool. There was theory about freelancing, but most importantly, there was a big course on the basics of design. The lectures (including theory) are very interesting, informative, useful and of high quality. The course ended with the defense of the diploma work - a case study for a real online store. Now this store will have many options on how to develop their site.

I would like to say thank you to the course team, tutors, mentors, lecturers and support. It's been great!

"The structuring, aesthetics of presentation, detailed notes and motivating breakdowns are the few things I can already safely say about the course in the first few months of the course. A tutor is always ready to help and interested in the students' knowledge, as evidenced by the extra lessons on top of the main program. Clear deadlines, although wildly annoying, allow you not to put off learning into another "someday maybe" task list, which in times of information overabundance is rapidly filling up and weighing you down, but to study today, act now. This is by no means my first experience of the course and an exceptionally positive impression on all aspects. 10 out of 10. If it was possible to clap in correspondence - I would give a standing ovation"

"The training involves immersion in a sea of different technologies and specific software. There are theoretical modules in which, without unnecessary "water", information is presented that will help you generate ideas and concepts for your projects. Naturally, during the course, it is impossible to study one hundred percent all the tools you are introduced to, it is unreal ... (people involved in the industry of interactive media are busy with their self-education always). The main thing is that the training gives you an understanding of how this or that installation / show program / object (which you looked at before as a miracle, not understanding how you can physically create something similar) is organized. Consecutively you are given different tools and skills, and taught to combine them with each other. After taking the course, you begin to understand how this or that complex set-up works. And have enough skills to create your own project (for example: to create an interactive object for a museum/festival, or generative video content for a concert/performance) Learn how to make mapping on a complex building facade and much more....In the process of training you get into a community of enthusiastic people, and it doesn't let you procrastinate) Mentors help you deal with difficulties in training. Special attention should be paid to the laboratory with technical stands, to which you can connect online and practice in mapping, programming of lighting equipment, etc.).
I can recommend the course to everyone who is interested in show technologies and not only. The level of initial training is not important, everything can be learned in the process (although, a big plus will be the ability to hold a soldering iron ^_^)"

"I enjoyed the course immensely, everything is step-by-step, without unnecessary water. There is a lot of information, but the lectures are small, convenient when time is short. The most important thing is my gratitude for the opportunity to learn the programs. Support quickly responds if there are questions and try to do everything for a comfortable learning experience.

Before the training, I had a slightly different idea of the work of an interior designer. During the training, everything turned out to be even more interesting than I thought.
I fell in love with Photoshop.
And also as I am an artist and an engineer, it was a pleasure for me to learn to work in Archicad and get high scores for my work. As a real project, I always handed in my work before the deadline, and I hope to do the same.

I came to the course to learn the program and I think this goal I have already achieved, it remains to translate the conceived projects into reality and make the lives of other people cozier and more beautiful"
