I’ve taken a few in-person Adobe classes with Noble Desktop and their UX/UI Certification remotely. Every tech school is built different, and this school is great for those that enjoy the traditional classroom setting with a live instructor [online and in-person classes all have live instructors]. It’s a great option to add supplementary knowledge to your tech skill set. With the different options for scheduling, you can go as in-depth as much as you want too. It’s also a good starting place in case you want to dip your toes in a certain field of study without too much time commitment just yet. It gave me a great starting foundation to learn more once classes ended.

Having some knowledge in visual design, I wasn't sure if I needed this course but decided to take the leap. It was a fantastic course than gave me more insight toward visual guidelines, ideas and strategies that I have already put into place the day after class. I recommend this class to anyone looking to gain more knowledge in this field.

The Visual Design Bootcamp class offers great tips and direction for building websites visually and accurately. I learned so much in just 3 days and felt prepared to start my own projects right away. Dan is a patient instructor and gives great advice on your project throughout the 3-day class.
Victoria Greiss
Great class. Very clear instruction. Good balance of activities and "lecture". Lots of hands on help. I came in a novice and left feeling like a professional.

UI Design Certificate is rated 4.8 stars by 577 students
The materials were great, and I liked the opportunity to practice in class.
My overall experience was very positive. It felt intensive at times, but that’s the nature of two consecutive 6-hour sessions, and no time was wasted.
Dan did such an amazing job of delivering the content in an engaging way. You could tell he didn't want to just get through the lessons; he really wanted us to understand the features and functions of Figma.
I had a great experience! I use Figma every day at work and am self-taught in the program This was awesome for filling in some gaps in my Figma knowledge! The instructor was great, easy to follow, and answered all the important questions!
The class was helpful and the instructor did a great job of teaching to both the students in person and online. I had to switch to online due to weather and was relieved it was still easy to follow along.
Eugenio was quite instrumental in helping me better understand the fundamentals of Adobe Illustrator. From his guidance and instruction, I believe I am better prepared to enter my dream job with the required skill set.
Every creative person who works in Figma should take this course, from designers to researchers to content creators and writers. It will instantly up your game, and the skills you learn are invaluable.
This class gave me the experience and confidence to begin playing with Photoshop as a tool for my work. I'm so glad the class was in person, and the price feels reasonable for the amount of skills / practice / attention you get.
There is a great amount of material covered. I'd explored Figma before but never understood prototyping or auto layout properly. Eugenio broke down the content and built knowledge up from the baseline. Now, it makes sense. The class was really great, I will definitely recommend it.
My instructor was knowledgeable, thorough, and patient. He did not hesitate to assist me and make sure I stayed on track with the class. The book was also step-by-step and easy to follow.
The UI Design Bootcamp is a good class because it builds on the Figma class that I took just before it. Eugenio is also a good instructor. He is very helpful and works hard.
This is a good class to learn Figma. Eugenio is a good instructor and worked hard to answer all of my questions.
I may not remember everything I was taught, but I now have a vocabulary and understanding of each design program we focused on. I can refer to the resources I was given as needed. This experience has filled in the blanks I was missing.
Excellent class to get started in Photoshop.
Michael Suen is a phenomenal UX/UI teacher. He is knowledgeable, but equally importantly, he always makes lessons compelling and easy to understand. He's kind, patient, and helpful.
Eugenio is the master of this art application. He knows all the resources of Photoshop, and he can assist with anything you have. I learned a lot in a short amount of time.
Dan is a great teacher and speaker! I appreciate his approach as a designer paired with his technical knowledge of Figma, which helped me understand how to use the application. I would definitely take another class he teaches.
Couldn't be happier with the experience. Eugenio was engaging and knowledgable. The class covered a range of topics, and was a perfect introduction to Adobe Illustrator.
Eugenio is a great instructor, and taught a great class! This was a really great chance to refresh my skills with Illustrator, learn some new things, and use this course as a way to professionally develop in my career.
Eugenio was an exceptional instructor, bringing a combination of expertise and enthusiasm to the class. I was overwhelmed when I started AutoCAD classes 20 years ago, but this is a comprehensive and engaging introduction to Figma.
Overall, the class was an excellent introduction to Photoshop, and I would highly recommend it.
Photoshop is very complex. I think this class is a good introduction to what is possible to do with the software.
This class was an amazing deeper dive into Figma. Breaking things down step by step and then building upon complexity was great. Having materials to take home and practice has also been very helpful! Dan was a patient and skillful teacher, 100% recommend!
Dan is a wealth of knowledge and his relaxed and thoughtful lessons were a great starting point for developing your Figma skills. Great class! Miles ahead of any online tutorial video.
Another great class from Noble Desktop! Dan was very well-informed about the program and made sure to explain steps and processes in a manner that was very easy to understand. The written curriculum within the book itself is something that I can see being very useful long into the future.
