Who this is for
- Career switchers who already notice bad products.
- Graphic designers moving into product.
- Founders and project leads who must brief design without guessing.
Course overview
UI/UX Design is how product companies decide who gets the junior and mid-level design seat. They do not hire decoration. They hire someone who can show a user, a problem, a flow and a decision. This cohort builds that case study with you, so you can ask for design pay, product influence and roles that hire from a portfolio rather than from one city.
Why the market wants this
Fintech, startups and digital teams in Nigeria and abroad ask for Figma, research and a portfolio before they read the rest of the CV. No case study, no interview.
Why enrol on this intake
A portfolio built alone usually looks like homework. Critique in a live class is what makes it hireable. Seats for that critique are limited.
Enrol nowWhat you stand to gain
Pay
Product design pay sits above general graphics once you can defend a flow, not only a poster.
Leadership
The designer who can explain a decision gets to shape the product, not only decorate the last screen.
Promotion
A case study is the artefact a promotion or hiring panel can open. Taste is not.
Remote and international work
Design portfolios are reviewed from anywhere. Remote product roles hire the file, then the person.
Trigger
A product team asked for a case study, not a moodboard. You can feel bad apps and cannot explain why. A junior UI/UX role wants Figma, flows and research — and you only have decoration.
What you lose by waiting
Hiring managers skip Dribbble tourists. The people who get the seat can walk through a problem, a user, a flow and a change they made. Every month without a case study is another round of applications that die at ‘send portfolio.’
Why now
Critique slots in a live cohort are limited. A portfolio built alone this year will still look like homework. Build it in the room, this intake.
Why this programme
The work you will be hired to do.
Product teams do not hire people who can copy a Dribbble shot. They hire people who can sit with a messy problem, talk to users, draw the flow, and ship an interface in Figma that a developer can build. This instructor-led UI/UX Design cohort takes you from ‘I like design’ to a case study with research, wireframes, a system and a critique you survived. You leave able to explain why a screen exists.
Career switchers who already notice bad apps and want the craft behind them.
Graphic designers moving into product and digital.
PMs and founders who must brief designers without waving at a mock-up.
What you will walk out able to do.
- Frame a problem with users, constraints and a success measure.
- Map flows and information architecture before you decorate.
- Build a Figma file another professional can inherit.
- Run a critique and change the work without taking it personally.
- Publish a case study that shows thinking, not only screens.
How the cohort is taught.
- 01
The brief
Who it is for, what hurts, what ‘done’ means. You stop designing in the dark.
- 02
Research that fits a cohort
Interviews, competitive scans, and the notes that change a flow — not a 40-page PDF nobody reads.
- 03
Flows and wireframes
Structure first. You will throw away decoration until the path is obvious.
- 04
Visual systems in Figma
Type, colour, components, states. A file that can grow past one screen.
- 05
Usability and iteration
Test, listen, change. The difference between taste and evidence.
- 06
Portfolio case study
One project told properly: problem, process, decision, result. Ready to send.
