Our days were not like routine learning in a boring school, on the contrary, it was fun, easy and educational."

Why UX
In today’s digital world people’s experiences have become a crucial aspect for every product, company or organization. The transversality of the UX field affects all areas of business as well as the technology and its development.
This bootcamp will help you know your users better, design products that are truly functional and that people love, learn the proper design process and provide designs for real life problems.
But I don’t know anything about UX...
Our course is prepared for people with no previous experience in UX Design. Previous experience with related fields such as project or product management, visual or graphic design, development and QA will help you to better understand the industry, but it’s also ok if you want to start from scratch.
Our instructors will teach you all the methodologies and mentor you through the process of becoming a UX designer. With small groups and best students/teachers ratio, you will have a personalized approach for helping you to succeed. All you need to have is a laptop and a strong desire to become a UX designer.
The rest is our job.
What if I already know something about design?
That’s great! Traditional Design skills (Graphic, Editorial, Digital…) are extremely useful for UX Designers. That will help you establish yourself in a higher seniority level once you finish the Bootcamp. We have mindbending challenges and more complex concepts to consolidate, strengthen and improve further your skills!
