Avocademy’s core program is an 8-week UX/UI Foundations course. Each expert-curated lesson in the curriculum builds on the previous content, helping students gain the knowledge and skill required to land a Junior UX/UI Designer job in a relatively short time frame. The UX/UI Foundations lessons consist of video and reading material. After learning key concepts and best practices, students test their knowledge by completing activities rooted in real-world UX/UI deliverables. Throughout the 8-week course, students complete an entire UX/UI project from research to high-fidelity prototyping and testing. 

Students receive unlimited one-on-one mentorship each week to gather feedback on their project work and to ensure they have a strong understanding of the course material.

    Best decision for my career!

    I completed the Avocademy UX/UI Foundations course and then went on to do their Career Jumpstart course. I cannot express how valuable these courses were for my career progression. I came in knowing almost nothing about UX/UI Design, and through these courses was able to advance my knowledge and gain real world experience working on projects as a sole designer, a designer on a team of 6, and a lead designer with direct interactions with my client. These courses fully prepared me for work...

    Detailed and engaging UX Foundations Bootcamp

    I recently completed the Avocademy UX/UI Foundations bootcamp course and loved it! The course was thoughtfully designed with a mix of videos articles/ reading. Each section built on the one previous to it and while we covered a ton of information, it never felt overwhelming or out of reach. The course is designed so that you finish with one complete portfolio project and there are mentors who are available to provide help and guidance along the way whenever needed. I really enjoyed by ex...

    Affordable, convenient, and completely worth it

    Truly recommend this program for anyone transitioning into UX/UI!! 
    A BIG pro about this program is how affordable it is! Other bootcamps I was looking at were mostly around 16k ....the Foundations course is ~2k! And you are able to do a payment plan.
    Another huge pro is that you have ~unlimited~ mentorship throughout the program. The mentors are a HUGE help and you can talk to them anytime on slack, can schedule calls with them about any...

    Avocademy was a great bootcamp, the mentorship and project checks were very helpful and made me feel less alone while learning a new skill. They also offer a Career jumpstart program after you finish bootcamp that helps you find a job!

    Remarkable Experience!!

    Before I started I kept asking myself do I really want to change careers again? Do I want to learn something new and start all over? Once I started those doubts were quickly answered to a resounding YES I DO! Sure there have been days that I’ve cried cause I felt it was really hard, but the mentors and my fellow students are so encouraging and help you sort out your pain points. Which I found to be the most positive experience in education that I’ve ever received! The course is taught in...

    Amazing experience with Avocademy!

    Enjoyed my experience in the Foundations course at Avocademy.  I wanted to make a career change and wasn't sure what to do until a close friend of mine sent me a TikTok video from Avocademy.  I researched a lot before signing up for the bootcamp since I had a lot of uncertainty, anxiety, etc.  But as soon as I started the bootcamp, I knew I had made the right choice.  I went through the course and also was working full-time, and the flexibility of the bootcamp helped me out a lot.  My fa...

    Avocademy was the best choice!

    I had been trying to find a way to break into the UX design field for a while and looking at different BootCamp programs. When I came across Avocademy I was sold by the price, the reviews, and the promise of unlimited mentorship. I wish I had made this choice even sooner. I love UX work and feel confident and encouraged after going through this program. My experience through UX/UI Foundations has been amazing and I was proud of the project I created during the course. They keep up with y...

    Get a head start in UX!

    I was looking for a career change and wanted to explore and compare UX/UI programs. I decided on Avocademy and couldn't be happier with my decision. You get access to some great mentors, the course content is easy to digest and you can learn at your own pace within the  timeline they set for you. I really enjoyed the mentor feedback and interactions. I felt supported all the way through, even when I had some issues in the middle of the course, they were accommodating and set a new timeli...

    Taking classes at Avocademy is a good way to learn ux design

    In Avocademy I gained a lot of experience in UX/UI design, but the best part is that you have full mentor support and support with real client projects allowing you to learn and improve your design skills as well as get real-life experience.

    Best Path Towards UX/UI Career!

    I honestly couldn't imagine a better way for getting into UX/UI Design. I was able to learn the fundamentals at my own pace, there was always a mentor available to help me, and even during the moments where I felt like I was struggling and didn't quite grasp the material, I still knew I would make it through the course because I could always get the help and feedback I needed. The experience I gained throughout the entire process was well worth the price and I encourage anyone who is rem...

    Wonderful experience - recommend!

    Avocademy bootcamp was a great start into my UX/UI design journey, so thank you Maca! I loved the foundations course which lead to making your first project, and you can get as many mentor calls as needed to guide you in the program. There's many text reading lessons in this project but the information is important. The foundations course sets up skills that I transferred when I got into the Career Jumpstart course so you have a good general idea when you get to the real client projects ...

    A Great Learning Experience

    Finding and enrolling in Avocademy UX/UI Foundations program has been a game changer for me. The program is well structured with hands-on activities that lead to your first UX design case study. What I loved the most was the access to design mentors who reviewed my work throughout the program. I was also able to schedule virtual sessions with them to clarify any information that was obscure. Although the review of my work was delayed sometimes, the overall experience, especially the cost...
