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....

Wonderful. I learned many concepts and techniques that I didn't know before. Even though it was a beginner course, I learned things that I had not learned in other courses I took.

I appreciate the combination of videos with transcripts and readings with illustrations. Sometimes I prefer one or the other or both and I can do any combination at my own pace.

It's a very detailed step by step course for begginer ux designers. The price is fair and get a lot of knowlege in return. More reading is needed though for more advanced topics.

Great for beginners who want to dabble into UXD for the first time. I suggest skipping this 1/7 courses if you are already familiar with a lot of the practices and methodologies.
