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.

    Supportive learning environment

    Avocademy is a great way to quickly learn and gain design skills. There is a TON to learn about design and this course is structured in a way that the information is not overwhelming. You basically go through the design process as you are learning and create a project with it. There are plenty of resources provided for students to aid with their learning. Something unique about the program is the unlimited mentorship. However, I do suggest hiring mentors with teaching/mentorship experien...

    Foundations Course

    The Avocademy Foundations course was an amazing place for me to start. Coming from a healthcare background, I wasn't sure if I'd be able to learn how to work in a whole new industry but Avocademy has made it a piece of cake! The information provided was very digestible and super actionable. You have access to mentors every day of the week, which is such an incredible resource. The assignment revisions/approvals may take a bit of time depending on what it is. However, this can be a non-fa...

    Effective and informative UX design bootcamp

    I completed Foundations of Avocademy in July and jumped right into their CJ program. I enjoyed the curriculum and they did a great job of assigning you real life clients to add substance to your portfolio. The only struggle I really experienced was with team members sometimes not holding their own in the projects. They do a phenomenal job prepping you for job applications, interviews, and negotiation. I landed a job after 28 days of applying. Overall, I would 100% recommend this bootcamp...

    Life-changing experience

    Throughout Avocademy's Career Jumpstart program, I was offered a plethora of opportunities that aided me in landing my first job as a UX designer. I was able to work on real client projects in teams, which taught me a lot about how to collaborate and derive accessible design solutions for actual users. I was also offered unlimited mentorship, ranging from design challenge reviews to mock interview prep. The staff at Avocademy truly want you to succeed, be it in the Foundations course or ...

    Life changing!

    Avocademy foundations and Career Jumpstart has been life altering! I was extremely unhappy in my field and came across Avocademy. The bootcamp is extremely comprehensive with so much mentorship help from designers themselves. Once I graduated from the boot camp, I was able to join their agency to get real client experience and continually learn about UX Design. I received even more mentorship with how to work with clients and do design handoffs, resume writing help as well as job searchi...

    Avocademy Review

    I started taking Avocademy's UX/UI Foundations course at the end of 2021 as I was interested in changing careers into UX/UI without paying ridiculously high prices for a course. After I looked at other reviews and reached out to the founder, I thought it would be a good fit and it was! You're able to work at your own pace and you have unlimited access to mentors. By the end of your foundations course, you'll have a portfolio with your own case study. They also have another course that yo...

    UX/UI Student

    Avocademy has been a dream sent. It offered me the opportunity to learn more about UX/UI foundations before spending additional money on Career Jumpstart Program. By the of the Foundations part, I was so eagerly ready to start Career Jumpstart because my confidence grew and I believed that I could do it. I've researched lots of UX/UI Bootcamps and am glad that I chose this one. It pushes me to do more and exercise what I learned. Even though it is a self-paced course, it helped me identi...

    UX/UI Foundations

    My experience with Avocademy has been all positive! In the beginning, I was a little iffy because they are one of the newer UX design bootcamps but I'm so happy I chose do to their bootcamp. The course is broken up into parts that make it so easy to learn and you get to go on your own pace. The unlimited mentor calls is what really helped me. No matter what my schedule was I could always find a mentor to help me with coursework. I also love that the course works on creating your first ca...
