Successfully completed Google UX Design Course

I recently completed the first unit of the Google UX Design course on Coursera, which took me nearly a month. Although the estimated time for completion was around 19 hours, I took detailed notes to aid my learning and retention. The course is incredibly detailed and professional, providing a systematic understanding of foundational UX concepts such as user-centred design, the design process, accessibility, and equity-focused design. Even though I had previously self-taught some UX design principles, this course introduced me to a more structured approach and covered many details I hadn’t considered before. I also gained insights into various UX research methods, the design sprint, the product development lifecycle, and important nuances in UX research, including different types of biases. This course has deepened my understanding and appreciation of UX design, and I highly recommend it to anyone interested in this field. I am excited to continue with the remaining six units of this course to further enhance my skills and knowledge in UX design.

I'm on a roll, ya'll. Still have some more to go before I complete the whole Google UX Design Professional Certificate (it's very long). While this course is aimed at people new to this career path, I've found it to be a great refresher, especially the module on UX research that identifies the different kinds of research and their pros and cons. The module about the different specialties of UX Design also helped me identify some opportunities to explore beyond the more generalist approach I'm accustomed to (perhaps a future specialty in motion or interaction design).

I have successful completion of Google UX Design Specialisation and it took me approximately 6 months at 10 hours a week to complete. The Google UX Design Professional Certificate have completed seven courses, developed by Google, that include hands-on, practice-based assessments and are designed to prepare them for introductory-level roles in UX design. They can complete the design process from beginning to end: empathizing with users, defining their pain points, coming up with ideas for design solutions, creating wireframes and prototypes, and testing designs to get feedback. 😊
