I love the quote by Viran Anuradha Dayaratne: "People don't use a product because of the great design; great design helps them use the product." A badly designed product not only looks bad, but it makes things harder for user to use too

Regina Pratt
In fact, the website design course online made a good impression from the very beginning. Before buying, I contacted the manager by phone, and he very cheerfully and exhaustively told me about the course. I concluded that it was what I needed to buy.
I searched a lot for the right online design course offering a user experience, and everything coincided. We must pay tribute that the quality of sound and filming of the web design course content is at a high level. The coach is well versed in the subject, explains everything clearly, I am glad that I studied here.

I love the feedback on the UX design course! I watched the lesson, and based on the knowledge gained, I did home assignments, and then I received feedback and analysis of my mistakes. The plenty of comments, all to the point. And this really encourages me to improve as a web designer.
Having tested myself in different directions, I decided to go to study to become a UX designer. I read about ux, turned to usability specialists of different levels for advice, read reviews on online ui ux design courses from different companies and decided to choose training in ICS.
