“I felt a sense of community that I didn’t with university training”

Oshi Paranavitane

UX Designer

While studying her Masters in Design, Oshi felt she needed something more. Then she discovered User Experience. Read about her career transition and her plans after graduating.

“It gave me the chance to clearly demonstrate my skills and understanding of the full design process.”

Yuka Mochizuki

I went in with high expectations, which were all met. I totally understand why people recommend this course, and in particular, Hayden… it [the training] absolutely enabled me to get the job with Westpac. When I did the interview, I was about 75% through my first project - which was a mobile app for sustainability and recycling and featured a smart bin. I was prepared to answer standard interview questions, but the interviewer asked me to walk her through a digital project that I loved. I feel that if it hadn’t been for the project within the UX UI Design Transform course, I wouldn't have been able to get the job. It gave me the chance to clearly demonstrate my skills and understanding of the full design process.

“Studying UX Design at Academy Xi is amazing”

Albert Brunda

Studying UX Design at Academy Xi is amazing. Effectively, UX is an end-to-end process, and I think most people don't realise they’re doing UX. Academy Xi equipped me with the tools and processes of how to solve problems.

“no amount of searching on Youtube for ‘how-to’ videos could compare to a well-structured course”

Amy Tran

After finishing the Graphic Design Elevate course in 2020, I left with a newfound sense of confidence in my design skills. While I had a base level of skill using the Adobe Creative Suite, no amount of searching on Youtube for ‘how-to’ videos could compare to a well-structured course. Our course mentor was excellent and was able to share unique insights about working in the industry and how to get started as a freelancer. With my new skills, I’m able to take my digital art side hustle to a whole new level.
