Learn how to turn your website into a more user-friendly experience
TL;DR: Improve your website's design with the Introduction to UX/UI Design Bundle, on sale for $29.99 as of March 30.
An eye-catching, uniquely designed website might attract users, but if they can’t find the necessities — a menu, store hours, how to make a purchase — it likely won’t hold their interest. People have short attention spans and busy lives. They don’t have time or energy to waste on a site that doesn't deliver the goods.
Understanding the basics of user experience (UX) and user interface (UI) could be the difference between a website that users want to spend time on and one they want to abandon. And this five-course UX/UI beginner's guide can help.
This 20-hour training is presented as a game, which means it's both entertaining and easy to follow. First you’ll get an introduction to UI components and discover the building blocks of design, like different types of buttons, icons, controls, sliders, inputs, forms, and more. Then you’ll dive into the visual elements, like color and typography, design composition and design principles, and accessibility in design.
With lifetime access on both desktop and mobile, you can work through all five courses whenever they fit into your schedule.
Each of these classes is valued at $100, bringing the grand total to $500. But for a limited time, you can sign up for only $29.99.
