Figma 201: Efficient Design & Interactive Prototyping

Ready to level up your Figma game? Our hands-on Figma 201 live online course is for anyone who knows the basics and is ready to start designing faster, smarter, and more systematically.

Across nine hours of intensive live sessions, you'll dive deep into advanced Figma skills. You'll become a pro at Auto Layout for responsive interfaces, leverage Components and Variants to build scalable UIs, and create interactive, high-fidelity prototypes using Smart Animate. Plus, you'll learn how to efficiently build Design Systems and seriously speed up your workflow with Design Tokens and plugins.

You'll get a certificate of attendance for each module you finish, or for the entire course. Everything is live online, practical, and interactive.

You'll also get a full year of access to all learning materials and session recordings on our campus! And if you want to keep the learning going, you can book a discounted one-on-one mentoring session with your instructor at any time after the course.
