    100% recommend

    I come from a non-technical background and I was able to learn so much in both foundations and CJ. Having hands-on experience gave me the ability to speak confidently during interviews. CJ gave me all of the tools needed to successfully transition, but I also put in A LOT of work. I made sure I was meeting with mentors often both in CJ and out, asking questions, learning outside of CJ, and putting in the time to show up for all my CJ projects. You get out of it what you give. I was able ...

    Such an amazing experience!

    Avocademy is an amazing school for new and upcoming designers and they have two courses, the first course is foundations where you learn the basics of UX/UI Design and the second course is Career Jumpstart for recent graduates from the foundations course. I am a recent Grad and thought the really covered all of the basics you can possibly learn for UX/UI Design. All of the mentors are amazing and really know how UX/UI design works. It is an investment, but so worth it!!

    Best decision I've made

    I did a ton of research on which UX bootcamp would be the best fit for me. I was pivoting careers and wanted something that I could complete in less than a year and that was affordable. Avocademy was just that. While there were some great options out there, Avocademy offered unlimited mentorship throughout the program, which to me was invaluable. The lessons were thorough and the projects challenged me. When I got stuck on something I made sure to schedule a 1:1 with a mentor. I liked th...

    Best educational investment I've made!

    As a person coming from a completely different creative background (fashion & graphic design), I felt like I hadn't really found a great fit for my passions until I started researching UX/UI Design. For me it's the perfect balance of creativity & technicality--while helping solve problems. After a couple months of researching I came across a few bootcamps but Avocademy stood out the most to me and I went for it.  I completed the Foundations course with Avocademy in October and it...

    Look no further than Avocademy!

    I'm so glad I found Avocademy! I did some very thorough research to find a bootcamp that fit my particular needs. I found Avocademy early on, but due to nerves and anxiousness to learn new skills in a new field I held off. Let me say, I wish I took the leap sooner! From the beginning everyone was so helpful and supportive. I was very impressed with the amount of help and resources available to me and how mentors responded to all my questions in a timely and patient manner. I dove into th...

    Avocademy: UX/UI Foundations

    Avocademy is a self-paced, intensive UX/UI bootcamp that I was lucky enough to come across early in 2021. I was looking to make a career change, or at least find something that would allow me to save money for Grad school, but I have since fallen deeply in love with design. The way that Avocademy's team has structured their course, alongside the tremendous amount of support and guidance they offer, really sets you up for success. It's clear that this program was made with the utmost care...

    Avocademy UX/UI Foundations Program

    I recently completed the Avocademy Foundations program and I couldn't be happier with my experience. The course was well-structured and provided a great foundation for a career in UX/UI design.



    One of the things I appreciated most about the course was the flexibility it offered. It was self-paced, so I was able to work at my own pace and fit my studies in around my schedule. The material was presented through a combination of videos, readings, and interactive ...

    Educational and Flexible

    Avocademy's course was great! The content was informative layout in an easy to follow, organized curriculum.  I really enjoyed having a schedule to follow and timelines to achieve during the foundation process. I'd recommend this course to anyone interested in knowing more about UI/UX.

    Avocademy Review

    Avocademy is by far the best Bootcamp I have ever attended. I wanted to break free from the medical field and stop working 12 hr shifts, so I made the change into a new career in UX/UI Design. The mentors here at Avo are amazing, always willing to help, and always check up on you to ensure you are doing well and on track. I would highly recommend this Bootcamp to anyone wanting to pursue a UX/UI design career. and last but not least they will help you get into job placement!

    Avocademy has helped so much!

    I was contacted by Maca on LinkedIn after I posted in a Transitioning Teacher thread. I had no idea what shift to make, just that I wanted out of teaching. I researched UX Design and all the Bootcamps for a month before signing up. Avocademy is amazing. They ease you in quickly, but effectively and not too overwhelming. I was able to quckly catch on and have learned so much. After finishing Foundations, I signed up for Career Jumpstart. I am currently on my third project and I am applyin...

    Streamlines your career change!

    I started off with their UX/UI foundations course. It helped me a lot to break into this industry. Of course, there are tons of free courses and curricula online, but Avocademy has gathered all the articles, sources, etc all in one place without having to figure out which information is good or bad. It is a lot of reading and can get kind of boring, but they are very useful information. After the foundations course, I joined their career jumpstart. Much more information and you actually ...
