Focused Exclusively on Design

Since our founding we've taught one thing: design. This focus has provided us with a unique understanding of the evolving needs of design professionals and the teams they work with. Our courses have been created specifically for these individuals – and are formatted to provide maximum ROI on your time and money.  

Upskill on your schedule. Designlab programs mix asynchronous curriculum with scheduled mentor and peer group sessions. Custom solutions for teams provide even more flexibility.

Our courses and trainings are filled with hands-on exercises and projects that allow students to gain the practice needed to master the skills they're looking to develop. Students also receive personalized feedback on their project work to further accelerate learning.

Mentorship is a central part of our programs and courses – and allows students to learn directly from working professionals with real-world experience related specifically to the coursework. And rest assured that all Designlab mentors are rigorously vetted for both their design expertise and communication skills.

Learning Outside the (Virtual) Classroom

Deeply ingrained in our programs is the idea that learning happens best when facilitated by real human connection. That’s why we’ve focused on building opportunities for Designlab students to connect with peers, mentors, and others in our community.

Connect, Collaborate & Discuss

At the center of our community is the Designlab Discord server. Here students, alumni, and mentors alike help each other get unstuck on coursework, give career advice, and provide design feedback.

But it’s not all business on Discord. It’s also a place where people discuss wellness practices, share book recommendations, find online video game partners, and talk about their favorite stationary (all real examples).

Learning, Live

Our courses feature live sessions (Group Crits, Peer Sessions, and more) so students can  present work, discuss feedback, and practice integrating the value of active critique into their design work. While the precise format varies by course or program, they all provide the chance for students to interact with peers in a facilitated session.

Real-World Insights: Expert-Led Events & Workshops

Being part of the Designlab community has its benefits. Students, alumni, and mentors receive lifetime access to our full slate of exclusive events and workshops. These online events cover a wide range of topics from navigating the job market to storytelling, user research, the latest design tools, and more.
