This class is not currently available. Take our Figma Bootcamp to learn the current industry-standard tool for user experience (UX) and user interface (UI) design.
In this class, you’ll thoroughly learn Sketch from beginning to advanced features for UI (user interface) and UX (user experience) design.
You’ll learn to design web layouts for mobile, tablet, and desktop (or screens for apps) using text, graphics, styles, and more. With artboards and layout guides, you can design on popular grid systems (like Bootstrap), making it easier to design responsive webpages.
Symbols are where Sketch really shines. They let you reuse design elements (such as buttons) while allowing each instance to be customized. Being able to globally update symbols will enable you to create flexible design systems that are easier to manage. You’ll learn how to share symbols (and styles) across files and computers to keep everything in sync and updated. This is useful for individual designers, but especially important when managing a team of designers to make sure everyone is using the latest design components.
Sketch is vector-based, so graphics can scale for a variety of sizes, and export as hi-res (Retina @2x) graphics for the web or apps. Exporting graphics is quick. Mark what you want to export, select the filetype and size, and you’re ready to export.
Turn your designs into clickable prototypes using Sketch’s native prototyping tools as well as using InVision and the InVision Craft plugin.
Start using Sketch plugins that add new features and save time by making things easier, using plugins that we recommend.
From our hands-on training style to world-class instructors and custom-crafted curriculum, we deliver results our alumni are proud of.

Dan's a very knowledgeable and helpful instructor. He really knows Sketch in and out and also can compare Sketch features to other popular programs. As a long-time Sketch user, I was surprised at how much I learned in this class. Very worthwhile class!

This was easily the best creative bootcamp I have experienced. The presentation style and delivery was A+, the pace was easy to follow, the instructions were easy to execute, and the presenter tied it all together nicely. I highly recommend this course.

I went out on my own two years ago after 25 years in corporate America. Continuing education is essential to my success—I am so grateful that Noble Desktop exists. In my experience, the instructors are, without exception, engaging and invested in the students understanding the material. I look forward to your classes because I know I will walk away with a wealth of information that will forward my career and business.

The content was progressive and covered the most salient aspects of the Sketch platform – perfect for a quick refresher or an introduction.

This 2-day Sketch Bootcamp covers the most practical uses of Sketch. From creating those nice arrow buttons and pin maps to prototyping to showcase your work without sweating a code. Totally worth it!

This software is a very interesting pivot from the Adobe software. I feel like I learned all the secrets to it from this course as well.

I'm really glad I found Noble Desktop! I've been using Photoshop for web design projects for the past 5 years, and I knew I needed to be up to date with the latest technology. I tried figuring it out on my own but it was too overwhelming, and YouTube videos only got me so far. I was looking for an online class with a live instructor, and this was exactly what I needed to get a good understanding and have confidence using the software at my workplace. I was shown so many solutions to things that were holding me back in Photoshop, and I'm excited to start using it now.

Would take a course from here again. Dan had a great depth of knowledge and willingness to explain all ways of approaching projects. Also, had a great pace of going through the material and stopping to address any questions.
