Video lectures

You work through the theory whenever suits you, and course access is permanent.

Feedback and support

You can ask a question at any point, so you are never left alone with a problem.

Plenty of practice

Assignments and useful material with almost every lesson, so the theory sticks.

A community of freelancers

You get access to a private chat with people doing the same work — sharing experience and passing on jobs.

How the course works

1. Get to know the platform

Once you enrol you get everything: videos, assignments, lesson notes and extra material the tutors keep up to date.

2. Work through the course

The course is made up of video lessons of varying length. Watch them wherever and whenever, and go back over any of them.

3. Do the assignments

Each block of theory is followed by an assignment — extra practice and another pass at the topic. Notes for every lesson help you through.

4. Work with a mentor

On the Mentorship plan you work in a small group with a mentor who is a working designer. They will help with the difficult parts and show you how to strengthen your project.
