Manage episode 284403114 series 2871557
Colman Walsh's head has been in UX design education for the past decade. Who better to continue our design education topic from episode 4?
In 2013 he founded UXTraining.com, and ran it successfully as in-person training for individuals to corporate groups. Then came the opportunity to scale this work, and reach a global audience through online education. In 2017 Colman founded the UX Design Institute, fully online courses for certifications in UX. Interestingly, it offers accreditation through Glasgow Caladonian University. In the episode Colman describes this as a type of disruption through traditional education.
Here are some of the other highlights from the chat:
- Importance of student feedback, then and now
- The decision to go for accreditation
- Importance of uncommon common sense for a UX career
- Gaps in design education
