Figma Masterclass
August 5–7, Weekdays, 10–5pm

Unlock the full potential of Figma with this comprehensive 18-hour Figma Masterclass, combining our Figma Bootcamp and Figma Advanced courses.

Figma is a modern design app built with the specific needs of a modern web designer, UX designer, or app designer in mind. Unlike image editing programs such as Photoshop—which were originally created for print, photo retouching, or illustration—the entire focus of Figma is on designing user interfaces and user experiences. You can craft the visuals and turn them into working prototypes all in a single app!

Figma uses frames (which other apps call artboards), to efficiently design web layouts for mobile, tablet, and desktop (or screens for apps). It’s vector-based, so you can scale for a variety of screen sizes with ease, as well as export hi-res (Retina) graphics for websites, apps, etc. You’ll find tools and features specifically relevant to UI (User Interface) design and UX (User Experience) design, such as components, built-in prototyping tools, and much more.

In this class you’ll learn to create designs and then turn them into interactive prototypes that go from screen to screen, open navigation overlays, make specific areas within a screen scrollable, and more. You’ll even add animations to your designs using smart animate! Work with advanced prototyping functionality to create add more realistic functionality to your designs. Learn to create flexible design systems with components, styles, variables, and more.

Figma is a web app and 100% cloud-based, so collaboration and easy file sharing is built-in. While you can install the Figma desktop app, you can also just log into Figma in any web browser and start designing without installing anything.
