It will be easier for us to catch up. It's nice to have some chance to talk about a different topic in the class.
The course help me to see things from different point of view.
And it is important that we need to improve some details in our life with UX design.

It will be nice if we can have more case study. How a UX project start in a company.
If we can follow a case/ project in class together, it may easier for us to understand how a project work in a career.
Get to know how the actual project works from problem statement to usability test together.

This course is a great first step for absolute beginners who haven't done any programming before. Adrian, the instructor of the course, not only is willing to guide me through the technical aspects of the assignments when I am confused but he can also enrich your exposure to the current business environment. The location of the class is also convenient, situating in Sino Plaza and Leighton Centre in Causeway Bay.

I have also met people from different backgrounds, including investment banks, properties, commercial banks, etc. Everyone can learn the fundamentals in a few weeks time.

Although I am not a full-time student, Resham, the co-founder at Xccelerate Talent Solutions, are willing to provide career consultation and support to you. I have enriched my interview skills and learned how to build my CV. She is very patient and can definitely help you to identify your career options.

I would highly recommend people to take this course as the starting point (especially those who would like to apply for the Bootcamp afterward) and potentially taking other more advanced courses in the future if you would like to get into the industry.
