  Our comprehensive Figma 101 course is designed for anyone who wants to learn the fundamentals of Figma at a professional level. No prior experience with other design tools or Figma is required.

  In small, live groups, our experienced teachers will guide you from creating your Figma account to building your first simple prototype. The Figma 101 course includes three, 3-hour modules, which you can book as a complete package or individually. You can find the dates listed below.

  You'll learn how to create your own logos, avatars, wireframe prototypes, and more. We'll show you the essentials of Figma, including Figma Draw, Grids, simple Auto Layout, and Interactions. The content for each module can be found in this section.

  All participants will receive a certificate of attendance after each completed module or upon finishing the full course. This live online course is hands-on and interactive.

  After the course, you'll have full access to all learning materials and session recordings on our campus for an entire year! If you need more support, you can also book a discounted one-on-one mentoring session with your instructor at any time after the course.
