Full-Stack Designer Bootcamp is an 8-week, cohort-based program that teaches product design using the latest Figma features. We focus on real-world skills, portfolio development, and career preparation to help you launch your design career.
Our program is designed for career changers, recent graduates, and current designers looking to level up. No prior design experience is required - we'll teach you everything you need to know from the ground up.
We focus exclusively on the latest Figma features (2024-2025), have small cohorts (10-15 students), and our instructors work at top tech companies. We also provide extensive career support and portfolio development.
While we're not a traditional accredited institution, we provide a certificate of completion and our curriculum is designed by industry professionals. Our focus is on practical skills that employers value.
The program is 8 weeks long with 2 live sessions per week (Tuesdays and Thursdays, 6-8 PM EST). You'll also spend 8-12 hours per week on projects and assignments.
You'll learn the latest Figma features including variables, Dev Mode, design tokens, advanced prototyping, and FigJam. We also cover design thinking, user research, portfolio development, and career preparation.
