About the Course

Foundations of User Experience (UX) Design is the first of a series of seven courses that will equip you with the skills needed to apply to entry-level jobs in user experience design. UX designers focus on the interactions that people have with products like websites, mobile apps, and physical objects. UX designers make those everyday interactions usable, enjoyable, and accessible. The role of an entry-level UX designer might include empathizing with users, defining their pain points, coming up with ideas for design solutions, creating wireframes, prototypes, and mockups, and testing designs to get feedback. Current UX designers and researchers at Google will serve as your instructors, and you will complete hands-on activities that simulate real-world UX design scenarios. Learners who complete the seven courses in this certificate program should be equipped to apply for entry-level jobs as UX designers. No previous experience is necessary. By the end of this course, you will be able to: - Define the field of UX and explain why it’s important for consumers and businesses. - Understand foundational concepts in UX design, such as user-centered design, the design thinking framework, accessibility, and equity-focused design. - Identify the factors that contribute to great user experience design. - Review common job responsibilities of entry-level UX designers and teams that they work with. - Explore job opportunities and career paths within the field of user experience. - Explain why design sprints are an important and useful part of a UX designer’s work. - Describe common UX research methods. - Identify and account for biases in UX research....

It's been a great start, however creating a portfolio doesn't seem quite feasible within this time frame. I will now enroll in webflow university to better understand and get started on the portfolio.

Very good introduction and overview to the field of UX/UI Design! For me the course included the right amount of information, and a good mix of videos, readings, activity and tests. The only thing I would have liked to seen less of is the discussion questions.

Exceptional introduction to UX Design done at a casual and welcoming pace. At no point was anything over my head - even technically. The Google brand is everywhere in the course which makes me feel it's so worthwhile to achieve this Certificate. Thank you Google!

Excelente introducción al UX Design. Quienes han llevado algún área del diseño les resultará muy fácil por lo familiar de algunos términos, conceptos y teorías, mas también es muy concreto a introducir a aquellos quienes no estan familiarizados del todo al tema.

The foundation course is designed very well with a lot of details. It is very easy to understand the basics of UX and different UX roles, it helps an individual to gain clarity on what part of UX are they more inclined to and how they will excel in future roles.

I loved learning about the different framework and design sprint but most of all about Imposter SyndromeThe most difficult part was creating a profile and networking as I wasn't ready to interact with some industry experts as I still need to know before I do so.

This is the best course you can ever find on internet, but there is one problem in the verification of ID we can't verify our ID, if we don't have a last name. Please resolve this issue.In UX designing this type of is known as edge case user, so please fix it.
