The UX/UI Design Certification process did a beautiful job of introducing me to the field, giving me a working knowledge its components and getting me excited about working in it in the future. The new space is beautiful and Michelle was intelligent, passionate about the work and thoughtful in her student interactions.

I would absolutely advise taking this class if you are looking at getting into UX/UI and want a thorough understanding of its foundation and principles.
Brent Scott
A lot of useful information that will prepare you for the next step in your career. The overall experience was enjoyable and I feel like I learned a lot of high-level material. The instructor was very helpful throughout the course.

The UX Fundamentals class was an in-depth look into the behind-the-scenes work that takes place before a site or app goes live. For people like me that thought coding knowledge was the only thing needed to break into digital, this was a revelation. User testing and flows, journey maps, ideating, wireframing and prototyping are the true heart of web design. If you want to wear many hats in the digital world (as potential employers will practically demand of you), this is the class for you.

This class allows you to take a real world idea and walk through the steps to bring it to life. It opened my eyes to a whole different world of design.

This is a great way to learn about the field of UX Design, as well as prepping you to begin your potential new career! It's a lot of information to learn but in a good way.

After doing considerable research into online UX courses, I am so happy I chose Noble Desktop. I was able to get a variety of instruction in a short amount of time and for an affordable price.
Haley Day
When I entered the UX Fundamentals class, I felt that I was a complete newbie to the UX field. After I finished the class, not only was I able to finish a prototype that I really love, I'm most likely going to develop it soon.
Eva Schicker
The professor was amazing and so inviting. I felt respected and was treated like a true UX professional! The connections I made with the rest of the class really fueled my creativity, insights, and understanding of the work.

Every class I take at Noble gives me something I can directly apply to my life a a graphic designer. UX Fundamentals was no exception.

I just completed the UX Design Bootcamp and highly recommend this course to anyone interested in learning about UX. The class gave a very comprehensive overview into the philosophy and process of UX, showed real world UX case study examples and then had us apply the UX process to our own class project. In the end I built a working prototype of an app that was based on and informed by me conducting actual user interviews, personas, journey maps, etc. etc. It was a great experience to apply the UX process to building my app all while learning a new program. The last class everyone presented their case study and app—very inspiring to see what some of my class mates accomplished in a few weeks!
Noreen O.
Great bootcamp, I highly recommend for the price if you are looking to learn UX for the first time and the processes involved in creating an app or website idea. You get to leave the course with your very own prototype project if you are willing to put in the time and effort.

This class gives you a ton of content to learn from, and is a great point of departure into the UX design world.

The content was presented in a clear way, and I feel that I have a better understanding of what UX design is than I did before taking this class. Joy kept the topic interesting and paced both the content and workshop parts of the class well. I appreciate that so much could be accomplished during class time (though not all, of course).
Elizabeth S.
Joy is excellent at distilling a huge subject (UX Design) into digestible bits. We will leave with a strong working familiarity of the various parts that go into UX design and I have several new tools in my design arsenal.

Noble Desktop is a great place to learn, and I recommend it to anyone who is looking to start or expand their design and coding careers! They prepare you for the job market and for you to be ahead of the curve in your career. I am actively applying to jobs and when I look for a product designer or UX/UI positions, everything I am learning in class is listed in job descriptions, so that is a huge advantage I will have once I start working. Five stars all around! :)
Lindsay Tagliareni
This program was great. You get to meet new people because the course has you working in groups a lot of times. The content was great and gives a good insight into what you would expect from learning a new skill set.

What makes for a good User Experience (UX)? UX design is a user-centered design approach that aims to design products and experiences which are effective, efficient, and enjoyable.
