H Academy

Experience design is definitely a life-inspiring learning even you are not working in the design industry.  I enrolled it as an interest course, didn't have much expectation, just wanted to have an interactive learning on UX design, as i had done a few... Read More online ones during covid. Yet, after 6-weeks, it was far beyond expectation. It was fun, inspiring and very challenging  as well. The key takeaway is the design thinking process, which taught me to think in a more 360 approach systematically, to identify properly the problems, so that you can find out the best fit solution, etc. I believe these are not only valuable for designs, but for your own self as well. I love the training we did every class, the real-life project with actual companies, all the discussions with different levels of people. These were where I learnt / inspired so much from. Our instructor Michael is very inspiring, always push us to think more, yet provide lots of guidance/ support when we needed. Definitely recommend to take this course !!!!!

If you are an UX newbie who is lost and don't know where to start, this course is definitely a perfect starting point for you. Our instructor, Michael Tam, is the best UX instructor one could ever find. Not only he is extremely knowledgeable and experienced... Read More in the industry, he also has immense passion in teaching and towards people. He always willing to go for the extra mile to support and help everyone of us when needed, despite his hectic schedule. In this course, apart from being able to learn design thinking in very well-structured way, I am also starting to think of my career path and to tell my unique story based on my background and work experiences. Another exciting part of this course is that you are able to work on a real-life project from scratch. It is a safe space for you to "learn by doing", as you can constantly loop and bring new ideas and solutions to the table, while fail quickly and cheaply, which is something you can't or can be rarely done in the real business world. It is also a golden chance to get a real taste of UX design in the real world and learn how to design a solution that balances between business, tech and most importantly, users. Last but not the least, you will get to meet and network with like-minded people who shares the same passion as you! Definitely recommending this course to anyone who wishes to upskill themselves!

Really appreciate for Adriana and Julio effort to providing online course for me as I sometimes cannot attend.

This is new area for me and helped me to consolidate what in my mind and I do think upcoming my company's digital marketing strategy will be more clear. Thanks a lot for the patience. Enjoy to make new friends in different industry and open my eyes too.

I was pondering for months which school to go with for my study in UX Design as there have always been a handful of major names in town that offers slightly different course structure. I came across H Academy when my friend shared the link with me for... Read More a tester course, and I knew it was the right one for me since. I chose H Academy based on 3 major reasons - the course structure, the real-world project and the instructor. Course structure - Firstly the course is 100% in-person and your instructor will always be after you to support your learning along the way. Moreover, it is substantially different from what the rest of the market offers. It places a strong emphasis on working up students' design thinking mindset, rather than the technicalities on UI design. Real-world project - The 6-week course exposed us to real-world project with business clients, where we got to put theory into practise. I love the fact that the project is very close to the problems we need to approach in a business setting, which could be a solid project in your portfolio. Instructor - Our instructor Michael is a very devoted mentor who keeps his students highly engaged before, during and after the course. He is always happy to offer career advice and provide directions for us to achieve more in our corporate projects. I would highly recommend this course to anyone who is looking to tap into the UX field.

The instructor Michael Tam is a reputational UX professional in the industry and he always shared his experience with us during class. Despite his busy full-time job in IBM, he was so passionate in teaching us that he stayed behind in the classroom even... Read More after lessons just to give us guidance on our projects and problems. Besides the design thinking concept that is supposed to be included in the course, Michael also guided us on discovering our own unique value and transferrable skills from our previous work experience, which inspires and motivates me a lot regarding my career planning. Highly recommend!

If you are looking for a course that will blow your mind, this is the one to go for. Rather than solely focusing on Experience Design’s hard skills like Figma, our instructor Michael helped us develop the mindset of design thinking. When I was in doubt... Read More and hesitated, the instructor & TAs were very supportive and dive deeper with me. I also partnered with a group of curious minds and worked with aspiring entrepreneurs. The project was intense yet fruitful, and I had a lot of takeaways from collaborating with different stakeholders. Our final playback was evaluated by a panel of experienced UX Leaders who gave valuable feedback too. The course coordinator offered various career support from career planning, personal branding, and story-telling that are immensely helpful to land a UX job! I am just grateful to join H Academy's Experience Design community and learn far more than I expected!

The reason why I chose to enrol in a physical UX course was 1) the instructor had great experience and background, 2) I can interact and ask the instructor any questions 3) tap into the instructor's professional network 4) meet other aspiring UX designers... Read More and be in a community. The best part of the program was being able to work on a real business problem. Not only I get to be hands-on and learn all the concepts and skills right away, but I am also able to build a connection with a potential future employer. This project also gives me a great case study in my portfolio and help me stand out from the crowd as it isn't a hypothetical case study. Through this project I also worked closely with teammates and the business stakeholders, which is a great chance to taste how a real UX job will be.

Michael is very clear with all the content he delivers in class. He helps to clarify many common misconception about UX and design and help us to think from user perspective. I like how Michael emphasizes us to get the concept right instead of overly... Read More focusing on UI related matter. I appreciate his and TA’s effort to be responsive to students questions on discord. I think this class is awesome and i dont see any reasons not taking this class!

I remember I was looking to an up-skill course about Experience Design, done all research online. Found out H Academy have a Demo Day for the Experience Design Course. On the demo day, I got a taste of what this course is about then decided to enrol in... Read More H Academy's Experience Design Course. Now, I could say it was a great decision I had made. This Experience Design Course course is not what I was expecting to learn something like UX trick but more like “Design Thinking” course. We have learnt basic UX concepts apply to the daily pain-point, which gives us a taste of how to solve the problem. More than we would be working on a real-time project from a real client. Truly apply the learning by doing it. Now after 6 weeks, I could tell you I learned more than imagined before. H Academy offers career help, offer 1: 1 meeting give to tips on cv, interviews. Also, a meaningful workshop by Workhap, telling you about tips cv and career planning. Overall, I will recommend people interested in UX enrol in this course, you will not regret it.

The whole course is well-designed to give us a taste of doing UX in the real world. Michael is not only a wonderful instructor in class, but he also actively gives us his guidance through our class’s channel and encourages us to reflect on our learning... Read More and think of the questions we have during the course. The course is also designed to let us work on a real-world project with students from different backgrounds, so it also enhances our communication skills in the process. Although it is just a 6-week course, I have gained more than I expected by working on the project. In addition to the excellent course, H Academy also offers very useful tips for planning our next career, we have gone through amazing workshops by Workhap and even 1:1 meetings from Happyer for preparing the most eye-catching resume. In short, I really recommend people who want to grasp the real taste of doing UX to enroll in this course. :)
