In the first week, you’ll connect with your peers, learn how to work effectively in the course, explore the IT industry and career opportunities, and discover how to use (and not misuse) AI as a tool to support your growth.
Together we'll start with the basics and tools from the areas of UX and UI. We'll show you how to use typography, iconography, colors and Gestalt principles in digital websites or apps to visualize your ideas.

Another practical project will help you to deepen the skills you have learned and to build up your personal portfolio and is good preparation for your final project.

At the end of this phase, you’ll practice agile methods such as Scrum and Kanban and learn about optimal workflows for UX/UI designers.
