​A flexible, part-time and remote friendly UX bootcamp for career-minded people with busy lives. ​​​​​
​

PART-TIME 

You are busy, we get it. That's why The Makery Bootcamp is part-time. You gain the skills to break into UX design without quitting your day job. ​

REMOTE-FRIENDLY 
​
The bootcamp is 6 weeks (remote friendly) with a flexible blend of instructor-led lessons and self-guided practices and informative UX resources 

REAL CLIENT
​
You will learn UX/UI skills from actual industry professionals while paired with a real client to design an innovative UX/UI solution for their customers. 

Learn real-world UX skills
​by designing a project for a real client. 

​
​You'll learn the theories and real work techniques of User Experience Design then apply them to a real world project, where you'll strategize, research, design, test and prototype a website or mobile app. 

The bootcamp is 6 weeks long. There is a weekly 2 hour live class and review sessions with instructors. Most makers invest around 8 - 12 hours a week outside of the classroom, but it's really what you make of it!

​Hello! I'm McLean - I built the content and teach The Makery UX Bootcamp along with our talented UX/UI designers at The Makery Group. 

This User Experience Design course is a fusion of foundational academic frameworks I've studied blended with industry-driven best practices I learned as a design executive. 

Most recently, I was the Vice President of User Experience Design for Shutterstock in New York City and a Design Manager for Expedia in Seattle. I'm an Adjunct Professor of Design at the University of Minnesota and a student too - earning my doctorate in Education (Ed.D). 

​Structured in project-based assignments, you will gain the ability to think strategically and build the UX/UI skills to deliver impactful work in today's digital economy. 

Thanks for considering our fun UX class!
