The course exceeded my expectation, i thoroughly enjoyed the 5 days UX, AI and Vibe coding course and our class activities. I have to say that it can be intense but totally worth it, just come in prepared and bring along your coffee. Highly recommend this to those who wish to understand more about UX and how new AI tools can change our ways of working.

I recently took part in a 3-day UX workshop, and what stood out most for me was finally getting a structured, step-by-step understanding of the core UX processes. The mix of practical exercises and real-world examples made the sessions engaging and directly applicable to my work. Sergei is an outstanding trainer his expertise in both UX/UI and the technical side of design brought an extra depth to the learning experience.

For anyone who’s self-taught in UX but hasn’t yet gone through formal training, I’d strongly recommend this course it’s a game changer!!!

I recently attended the 3-day UX training/workshop, and for me the most valuable part was gaining a clear understanding of the key UX processes and steps. The workshop not only included great hands-on exercises but also real-life scenarios, which made the learning very practical. Sergei is an excellent instructor with deep knowledge not just in UX/UI but also on the technical side, which added extra value to the sessions. If, like me, you are a self-taught UX designer but have never taken a proper course, I highly recommend this training.

Also, the food and drinks throughout the workshop were excellent!

Great course: informative content and engaging instructor!

I took the CERTIFIED UX DESIGN AND AI BOOTCAMP and had a great experience. The content was comprehensive, well-structured, and thoughtfully paced. What stood out most was its practical, real-world approach to moving from concept to launch—seamlessly integrating AI throughout the UX workflow. Sergei is a knowledgeable and engaging instructor who brings clarity and energy to every session. If you’re building or improving digital products, this course will deliver real value to your team and users alike.

Excellent course, great teacher

This course far exceeded my expectations. Would highly recommend.

It was super practical and hands on which I find most helpful to help consolidate my learning. After being out of the classroom for nearly a decade o was concerned about being able to keep up, but it was paced evenly but appropriately challenging throughout. Anything I wasn't sure about, Sergei took the time to clarify before moving on which I really appreciated.
The bootcamp was one of a few similar sounding courses I was considering and im really glad I chose this one. Loved it!

Incredible UX bootcamp with amazing tutors

I had amazing experience doing the 7 week UX bootcamp (bi-weekly so 4 week) which I finished Jan 2024. Sergei and along with the other tutors were just incredible knowledgeable and brought a lot of industrial experience to the table in their lectures. Other people in the Cohort were amazing to work with so I do recommend the School of UX if you thinking of getting into the world of UX or level up in the industry.

I had a great experience at the school of UX, I came from a design background with experience in UI design but I needed a better ux portfolio. The course was very helpful, easy to follow and it provided the chance to create new case studies and learn user experience principles.

I like the projects we worked on, the ux writing classes and all the tutors we had, they were very supportive and kind.

I high recommend this course to UX juniors that wanna build their portfolios or improve their skills.

7 Week Skills Bootcamp

My experience at The School of UX was great! Coming from a design background, I had a strong creative foundation but needed to strengthen my research skills. The course helped me transition from making design decisions based on instinct to focusing on what the users need and backing it up with solid evidence. This has significantly improved my design abilities, and I've recently landed my first UI/UX designer role. I'm incredibly grateful for all the mentors in The School of UX, especially Sergei & Chimmy! :)

Great Introduction to UX & UI

I completed the 4-week UX Design Skills Bootcamp in March of this year, after attending the 1-Week UX, UI Design & Prototyping in Figma last summer.
As a complete newbie to the world of not just UX and UI but design in general, I was slightly nervous, but Sergei, Chimmy and the other tutors were patient and helpful to all of us taking the course, whatever our experience. As my background is writing, I particularly enjoyed the UX Writing section, taken by Felice, and am now beginning my own UX Writing personal project.
I would absolutely recommend the School of UX to anyone looking to add to their skillset, or who's thinking of a career change.

UX Design 7-week Skills Bootcamp

The team was fantastic—passionate about UX and highly knowledgeable in their respective fields.

I joined the course to explore UX and UI, and it exceeded my expectations. The curriculum covered a wide range of topics, from copywriting for the web and customer behaviour psychology to an introduction to Figma and brand asset libraries. This broadened my understanding and deepened my interest in digital creativity.

The course was well-organised, and the use of Zoom was seamless. However, it’s called a "Bootcamp" for a reason—the sessions were intense, lasting 5 hours each. I would have preferred splitting the sessions into two, one early in the morning and another later in the afternoon, allowing time to decompress and complete work in between.

Towards the end, there was pressure to complete a portfolio. As a designer, I value thinking time, and the tight deadlines didn’t align with my working style. I would have appreciated ongoing assessments instead of the heavy focus on a final portfolio, which I didn’t finish.

Providing handouts summarising key learnings would have been very helpful, rather than relying on my scribbled notes and numerous screenshots of bullet-pointed slides.

Overall, I enjoyed the course and made some great connections. I hope this feedback is helpful to Sergei and the team at The School of UX.

Incredible course for getting started with UX/UI Design!

I took part in this course, and I can’t recommend it enough! As someone who was taking their first steps into the world of UX/UI design, I found the course to be incredibly insightful and well-structured. The content was easy to follow, and it provided me with the foundational skills I needed to feel confident in this field.

What made the experience even better was the support from the teachers. They were always helpful, ready to answer any questions, and provided valuable feedback throughout the course. Their guidance made a huge difference in my learning journey.

Not only did I learn about UX/UI design principles, but I was also able to transfer these skills and inspirations into my own business. It gave me a fresh perspective and new tools to enhance my products and overall customer experience.

Big thanks to the School of UX :)

The perfect UX bootcamp

For anyone who wishes to learn and understand the fundamentals of UX design I really recommend taking part in the School of UX bootcamp. The amount that you will learn will really shape you in to a better UX designer. I have already recommend a few people interested in UX design to take part in their bootcamp.

Landed my role with a great company

I loved that there were different teachers covering their specialisms rather a single lecturer. I landed my current role because of the portfolio piece I specifically did with The School of UX so I'm very glad I attended this short course (I also worked on this to define it in my spare time post-course).

Highly recommend for juniors or below!

Variety of different teaching styles…

Variety of different teaching styles and briefs.
Had a great experience on the course. You could tell every tutor has their unique methods of teaching due to their specialism and so I got a taste of different areas of UX and got to ask very specific questions. The only thing I would ask is for recording class time to rewatch and understand the steps to different methods.
