Your Final Project

To complete your certificate, you will develop and design a mobile application, from conception through to a clickable prototype — with your own UI scheme. The theme of your application can be part of the class project, or a topic of your choosing.

What You'll Learn

User Research

Information Architecture

Learn how to structure information in a way that is clear to your users and helps them achieve their goals.

Sketching & Wireframing

Prototyping

Test the functionality of your designs with clickable prototypes in InVision that mimic a real product. Collect actionable feedback from your users in order to further develop your designs.

What People are Saying

“I find the classes refreshing compared to traditional educational institutions. They are casual but the course content is refined. Would recommend this class to anyone who wants to get a solid understanding of the tools and methods that UX Designers use.”

Daniel, Course Report

“I found the course material to be informative and engaging, but it was made far better by the industry professionals leading the course. They were able to expand on the material provided by BrainStation and offer their own insights and anecdotes on UX and what it means to be a designer.”

Dallas, Course Report

“After the class I actually got hired to be a Junior UX Designer, and I am so excited. It is a completely new field and so far i'm loving it. I would definitely recommend this to a friend if they were looking to improve your career.”

Julia, Course Report

“At work, we already rely on user research and testing when we work with business units but there is always room for improvement in how we deliver and leverage results. The UX Design skills I've learnt have increased my confidence and improved my overall knowledge, helping me in my career acceleration.”
