Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet conse adipiscing elit.

You want to design for people, but dont know how to progress your career.

You are worried about the impact of AI on jobs, and not sure what to do.

You have done some UX, but need more advanced level skills.

OR you dont have a design background and are unsure how to get into UX.

There are many different UX courses, and it is difficult to choose the right one.
