UX Design Micro-credential

Amidst the COVID lockdown, Yoobee Colleges reached out to me to create and design an online course for a micro-credential in UX. My assignment involved crafting a fundamental course tailored for novices, covering the essentials of UX, ranging from the principles of UX design to conducting user interviews and using Figma.

I’ve had the opportunity to instruct individuals from diverse sectors, including health, telecommunications, and government, in this field.

Have just finished an awesome UX Design course at Yoobee College of Creative Innovation (7 weeks of after-hours learning). Loved seeing the plethora of talented work my classmates all did, including UX research, Customer journeys, Personas, Wireframing and Prototyping. Many thanks to our tutor Yudi Rajkoomar for his help and input.

Live Online Classes:

Live online classes are a friendly and supportive alternative to watching video tutorials – you’re able to ask questions and receive answers from an experienced UX Design industry professional in real-time. Your mentor will share their screen, demonstrating professional tools and techniques, then support you as you follow along, completing activities during class time.

Live classes are supported by an active class forum where your tutor provides additional information and feedback outside of class times. Classes are also recorded, so you can review them in your own time or log in to learn at a time that works best for you.
