    An award-winning resource to learn UI/UX design from short courses, one-on-one mentoring from professional designers, or a full UX Academy as a way to go from beginner to a junior level designer. They even have a guarantee that you will get a job within 6 months of graduating or your money back. I personally know folks who have gone through their programs and found them beneficial. I definitely recommend DesignLab as a way to learn the fundamentals, especially if you don’t want to go to college for design!

    What's your favorite way to meet other designers? Mine are in-person meetups or conferences!

    MLC Connect was fun last Summer, a bunch of sports designers chopping it up in Chicago. I might hit up IDEA this year though.

      Thanks for the comment! I really got a lot out of a college degree and I don't think I would hae learned as much without it, but there are people who teach themselves. You should check out my video on college vs. self taught for design if you're interested in this topic!
