Hi! Portfolios and Resumes are something we're considering to cover in another course, as this first one is more about how to design well (good paths and practices). Definitely there is a plan on a mini-course on killer-portfolios later this year :)
I think the question is how closely does the certificate measure your knowledge and skills in a subject. If the cert. is given out to everyone who gets through the entirety of the course, and not measured by the quality and effort output of the student, then it’s not going to measure or say anything. The problem is designing a course in a way where you can confidently say that the certificate is only given to those who show a certain level of skill or knowledge. In other words, it’s not easy to put it into practice and certificates usually fall short of this goal. I’m excited for your course for this reason. Not everyone who completed the course gets a certificate. But those that do can be confident that they are going in the right direction in progressing in their skills and knowledge in UI. I want to see or gage if what I learn and my level of skill in UI is enough to earn a certificate. That way, I can confidently tackle my imposter syndrome and if I don’t earn a certificate, well then I will know where I’m at in the spectrum of UI skill and know what I need to work on.
Yeah, I think that reinforcement was also one of the things that helped the most with all my previous attempts to guide and help junior designers - often times they felt they weren't good enough when they were, and that led to subconsciously sabotaging themselves on job interviews. This course is going to be different as it focuses heavily on one very important aspect of UI design that is very measurable and objective. Can't wait to share more :)
Please, I'm looking forward to the release of your course. I'd appreciate more detailed information about it, such as where it'd be released and the cost..
Hey Mike! I have a question: how much prep work should I do before your course goes live? I've just finished course 1 of the Google certificate, and am watching some tutorials about how to use Figma. Thanks!
I don’t think it’s relevant. I don’t want to dedicate months to get a certificate when I can focus on building a project or case studies of my choosing. That demonstrate ux and ui principles
I plan to take the google course to educate myself about the UX Design career path before completely making the leap, and i understand that's typically not enough to land a job. Should I be pursuing a specific bachelors degree (such as design ) that would help me secure a UX career in the future?
Malewicz: An Online certificate is just a jpg or png. Also, Malewicz: Here is my course with a jpg certificate... I've seen many other people offer courses claiming they will do the hard work of grading and mentoring. But after a week or so, why did I do this? Dude, just offer your course on Udemy to compete with all the other courses already in the market.
I may have been a bit unclear if that's what you got from this :) Don't worry about me giving up, I've been helping hundreds of designers with free reviews for years, I can deliver. And no, the certificate won't be a JPG, it will be more about that feedback and guidance + telling people that I believe they are now good. That's worth more than a JPG. Cheers!
I’d argue that the certificate themselves aren’t worth much but what you learn in them is!
Exactly! And that is going to be me goal with my course too :)
“If you pass that means I think you’re good” SOLD.

Looking forward for this challenge Mike :) and honest feedback priceless 🖐
You and me both! I'm excited by just seeing the content I already have for it.
I only wish the course includes portfolio prep before applying for jobs. I am all in and can't wait for your course :)

love your objectivity and honesty man! how long is your course?
A little over 4 hours of video (at least that's my goal but still some videos to record in the coming days, so it may get longer)
Please, I'm looking forward to the release of your course. I'd appreciate more detailed information about it, such as where it'd be released and the cost..
My courses are already available at hype4.academy :-)
@@MalewiczHype thanks
What do you think about Uxcel Certificates?
Yeah these certificates matter, but only if you have learned something 👍😇
Highly wanted to join the courae but not able to join due to financial issue , hope i will take it after some months

Hi, just the complete basics of any design tool - how to create a rectangle, change its color etc. It will be very beginner friendly :)
@@MalewiczHype Would you say absolute beginners should avoid your course?
I don’t think it’s relevant. I don’t want to dedicate months to get a certificate when I can focus on building a project or case studies of my choosing. That demonstrate ux and ui principles
I joined your course, recieved confirmation letter but they didnt debit any money from my accout🤔
Hi! In some cases Gumroad only "locks" the funds on the card without debiting the account - I think that debit will happen on the day of the launch.
linked in has those certificates they offer for ux design
Yeah, but I don't think they're that relevant.

Degrees don’t help that much either. Working on a portfolio of made-up projects is key, then networking with ither designers :)
@@MalewiczHype Thankyou!

I have a question. What software do you use to annotate your videos ?
I do all those texts / visuals in Sketch and simply add them to Final Cut.
@@MalewiczHype Thank you ☺
