Interaction Design Foundation’s UX bootcamps are part-time, fully online programs with a focus on job-readiness. Interaction Design Foundation (IxDF) is an independent initiative with a mission to make design education affordable and accessible. Every bootcamp is designed to help students develop practical skills and a portfolio through Capstone project work.

IxDF bootcamps are mentor-led. Mentors in the Interaction Design Foundation bootcamps are experienced UX design professionals with 5-15 years of experience. Beginner-level bootcamps in UX Fundamentals, User Research and Design Thinking include a dedicated mentor as well as live classes with an instructor and group critiques with peers. The UX Portfolio and Career bootcamp includes a dedicated mentor, peer reviews and consultations with design recruiters. 

Students are also given a one-year Interaction Design Foundation membership, which includes Interaction Design Foundation courses, which are available to those who wish to supplement or expand on their knowledge from bootcamp. 

All bootcamps include a verifiable certificate of completion. Students who complete at least 3 beginner-level bootcamps are also eligible for an IxDF UX Certification with a Job Guarantee.

    Get a Job in UX Bootcamp

    I have just completed the Bootcamp and I can honestly say that it was an extremely worthwhile endeavour. I was paired with an excellent mentor with tonnes of industry experience who truly cared about my progress. My UX portfolio has come on by leaps and bounds in the eight weeks. I would thoroughly recommend this course to anyone seeking their first start within UX Design.

    UX Bootcamp

    It was a great bootcamp. I attended several conferences and courses. I already had some knowledge but I did not know where to start, how to continue and finish. This bootcamp helped me to bring together all of my knowledge and produce end-to-end project. Well-structured documentation helped me close the gaps. Mentor has directed me whenever I was lost in the project and her advices helped me to understand my mistakes.

    Get a New Job in UX Design

    This is a well structured bootcamp that had helped me not only to learn by doing, but to gain confidence about my previous knowledge!
    This is not a beginner bootcamp and I highly recommend it to people who need the final boost to land their first UX job. 
    Also, I would consider doing this bootcamp again in a couple of years. The main reasons are: 

    • Each student has the possibility to set up their expectations and their goals from the beginning. The bootcamp wi...

    Get a UX Job Bootcamp

    this bootcamp was super helpful in terms of connecting with a mentor and recruiter. personally, I felt the layout could have been structured better to actually put your portfolio together [vs. the research part] - as the ultimate goal is to have something to show off once you're done. my mentor was great, but I personally could have used a bit more guidance. overall, the connections I made are invaluable and I'd recommend this to anyone looking to start making headway into the UX job mar...

    A Solid Intermediate Boot Camp

    I attended The Interaction Design Foundation 8-week Boot Camp in June of 2020. I was super green, a complete newbie, and this boot camp was not only advertised as one for entry-level, but it was also one of the most reasonably priced options available. 

    After completing the boot camp, I would have to say that it is definitely more for intermediate UX designers. While I did learn a lot, I feel the learning curve was a little steeper than I anticipated. Of course, the added benefit ...

    Excellent Mentorship

    I've been working as a Designer since 2010 but I had a break in 2016 to pursue other things for a while. I had decided to join the IDF UX Bootcamp in order to update portfolio and to get more knowledge in user research methods. My mentor was amazing, she helped me with all questions and doubts I had and we both got to work out how we would approach my projects from beginning to end.
    If you have any doubts about the UX job market or UX processes, in general, this Bootcamp is perfect fo...

    Amazing experience that really worth the price!

    The bootcamp from IDF is amazing! It is the best way to learn to have a mentor and to be able to work on real projects. 
    Big plus, IDF is a non-profit school which makes the price of the bootcamp unbeatable! I highly recommend this bootcamp. Education should always be non-profit.

    UX Bootcamp

    All in all I had a very positive experience with IDF UX Bootcamp. Schedule and program was well thought, mentor was very helpful and knowledgeable. The only recommendation I would give to those who plan to start this course is to learn tools before subscribe. It will help you to concentrate more on your projects rather than spending time on learning basics. The rest was great.

    UX Bootcamp. Get a New Job in UX Design

    I highly recommend the UX Bootcamp and the IDF school in general. The Bootcamp gives an incredible uplift in a couple of months, provides unique materials and what was most important for me — a highly experienced mentor.  I can not give a review of the job assistance yet, some time is needed (let's say 5 stars for now)  But other points are definitely 5/5.

    Mr

    I found the Interaction Design Foundation - Bootcamp really helpful in giving a proper shape to my portfolio. The structure, timing, course content and value for money  are all very good . The support provided by IDF too is very prompt and supportive. You get to choose from three instructors based on your preferences. I can't speak about the quality of all the mentors, but in my case, my mentor was very highly experienced, supportive, wise and under his guidance I have been able to devel...

    UX Design Bootcamp Review

    Great experience all around! The course is well thought out and very flexible. The dedicated mentor component was key in offering guidance and encouragement through the process. My goal going into the course was to become a more versatile designer across the design spectrum - the experience has given me a huge confidence boost towards that goal. I would highly recommend.
