"Great Experience!"

"Please do not waste your money."
I do not recommend Designlab. I ignored the comments that warned me about it but after wasting my money, I realized that it was a complete waste of money. Yes, you will learn some stuff. But most of the stuff you can learn for free...If you need a mentor... Read More

"Helpful and Practical"
Before Designlab, I took a lot of free online courses, but none of them gave me practical teaching on how to use software and actually design. I appreciated that in conjunction with all the informational lessons, there were many projects that allowed... Read More

"Easy to follow, great lessons and projects, amazing mentorship, and very encourgaing."
For a foundations course, there's not any cons that I could think of when it comes to the overall course. The dashboard was very user friendly, which allowed me to easily follow along what lessons were next and when my next mentor meeting was. The course... Read More

"It was a roller coaster with moments of frustration, pride, doubt, satisfaction, curiosity, and accomplishment!"
I wish there was at least some focus on civic/gov't UX/UI or the idea of using UX/UI for social justice/good. It all felt very marketing, branding, capitalism driven which was a big source of demotivation for me. As a complete newbie to design and not... Read More

"I've learned so much!"
I've got to say that learning the foundation course here in Designlab has been super smooth. Everything's straightforward and easy to understand, and having that one-on-one with a private mentor? Absolute game-changer. Plus, the cost is pretty affordable.... Read More

"Loved this foundations UI/UX course"
After a lot of research, I settled on DesignLab's Foundations course because I wasn't ready to spend thousands $$$ of dollars for a full-on Bootcamp. The Foundations course was the perfect in-between, it was a $500 course that was divided into eight units... Read More

"My experience was useful and easy to understand."
The pros of this program are the mentorship, user friendly experience, and good pacing to the provided lessons. I don’t have many cons to provide, besides the fact that uploading projects can be a pain when the max file size capacity was lower than what... Read More
