I had a fantastic experience with the DesignerUp Product UX/UI Design course! It covered all the basics and walked me through the entire design process, giving me a solid foundation to build on. But what truly set this course apart was the instructor, Elizabeth. Her deep industry knowledge and practical experience shone through in every lesson. She shared real-world tips and tricks that were incredibly valuable and not something you'd easily find in a textbook. I now feel confident in the foundational skills I’ve gained and am excited to continue my journey in UX/UI design. Highly recommend this course for anyone starting out in the field!
Product Designer
Introduction: After a 6-month immersive journey, I'm thrilled to announce that I've successfully completed Elizabeth Alli's Product Design Bootcamp at DesignerUp. As someone who was eager to deepen my skills and understanding of UX/UI design, this course has been a game-changer for me.
Course Content: The curriculum was robust, covering everything from the fundamentals of design thinking to the nitty-gritty of wireframing and prototyping. What impressed me most was the course's focus on current industry trends and best practices, ensuring that we're learning skills that are immediately applicable in the job market.
Instructor Expertise: Elizabeth Alli is a phenomenal instructor. Her deep expertise in the field is evident, not just in her lectures but also in the real-world examples she brings into the classroom. Her teaching style is engaging, and she has a knack for breaking down complex concepts into digestible pieces.
Learning Experience: The course was structured in a way that allowed for incremental learning, with each module building on the last. The pacing was just right—challenging yet manageable, ensuring that we were always pushing our boundaries without feeling overwhelmed.
Materials and Resources: We were provided with a wealth of resources, from textbooks and articles to software tools and templates. These materials served as invaluable references that I continue to consult in my current projects.
Practical Application: One of the highlights of this course was the opportunity to work on real-world projects. I've been able to directly apply the skills I've acquired in my own work, and I'm thrilled to share that I've launched my personal website portfolio. You can check out my first case study to see how I've applied what I've learned.
Areas for Improvement: While the course was excellent overall, I think there could be more focus on user research methodologies and perhaps more guest lectures from industry experts to provide different perspectives.
Conclusion: In summary, Elizabeth Alli's Product Design bootcamp at DesignerUp has been a transformative experience for me. I wholeheartedly recommend this course to anyone looking to elevate their skills in UX/UI design. And yes, I'm open to feedback on my portfolio—because let's face it, the journey of a designer is always a work in progress!
Product Designer (UX/UI) & Architect
Amazing comprehensive bootcamp for product design! As an architect transitioning into product design, I was looking for a program that gave me a broad understanding of the product design world. DesignerUp is an affordable and thoughtfully structured program - the courses are concise/clear and are always supplemented with helpful resources and mentorship. Liz is an awesome mentor, and always provides very focused and detailed feedback. This self-led program also gave me a lot of flexibility, as I was taking the course while working full-time. I highly recommend this to anyone interested in exploring product design!
So far it's been really great. I love the detailed feedback we get when we post work. There are tons of resources. Coming from a background outside of the industry, this is incredibly helpful. The live office hours were incredibly valuable too—I got a lot out of hearing from people with different backgrounds and at different stages in the industry. The insights on portfolios and what people look for in them really connected with why we're learning certain ideas and processes.
Corporate Educator
The overall experience is good, and I really enjoy it. The community is active, so I appreciate receiving feedback on my assignments and enjoy giving feedback as well. The resources are useful, though I sometimes struggle to have everything in one place, like templates on Figma or certain templates on Notion.
Education & Design
The course is very easy to use, it is attractive/consistent in terms of the interface, and I found it more informative than the Google UX cert I have been taking. Both are wonderfully helpful, but this one has been more clean cut and full of more external resources. I also appreciate that there is one major project. My other cert had 3, and while I may still do all 3- it was overwhelming alongside the amount of information, and. sometimes felt I had to do extra digging to complete a task. Overall, I haven't experienced that with DU.
UX/UI Designer / Web Developer
I'm excited to announce that l've completed DesignerUp's Product (UX/UI) Master Course 🥳 After years of hard work, I can finally call myself a designer and I owe Elizabeth Alli and Eric a lot for that. I decided to take this course because from the first moment I could see they were very passionate about Product Design, and their "Mindful Design" values aligned very much with what I wanted to become as a designer. I'm grateful to everyone who has helped me and advised me during this process (special credits to Cristobal Lemoine). It finally led me to my first official position as a UX/UI Designer and Webflow Developer 🤓

I'm forever thankful for this in-depth course by DesignerUp I can't wait to apply for my next entry product design job role! DesignerUp has taught me all the fundamental knowledge and skills of UX/UI and product design that I was missing in my previous education at school. The community also made me feel very welcomed & supported throughout my project when I encountered difficulties. These lessons made me think through the design, business and technical decisions with a mindful approach considering what is in people's best interest and mental well-being, which the world needs more of moving forward!

Hi! My name is Lacey. I am currently working as a graphic and web designer. I have been designing for 5 years and have a background in Art History and in Hospitality and Tourism. I recently did some research, LinkedIn courses, and reading regarding UX design. This spurred my interest in UI/UX and I have been researching different courses. Ultimately choosing DesignerUp because of the curriculum, the focus on mindful design, and, to be frank, a gut feeling that this was the right direction for me right now.

Elizabeth is the epitome of everything a mentor and teacher should be: invested; curious; empathetic; empowering; communicative; and mindful. I couldn't recommend working with Elizabeth (and DesignerUp!) more — I wouldn't be the designer, operator, and mindful human being I am today without her.

When I was looking around at courses to level up my product design and strategy skills, DesignerUp very quickly stood out among the competitors as the perfect option for my needs. Primarily I was looking for an asynchronous option so I could structure it around my full time workload, and I appreciated the more tailored, individualized approach to the lessons.
