What graduates are saying

A Harness Project essentially allows you to jump straight into a real project with a real client to help solve a problem the company is facing. With a small group of 12 students and a mentor to guide you through each step of the way, you are left with real life experience by presenting a final solution to a problem and a portfolio piece that you are proud of!

Overall, I really enjoyed this learning experience. It was a highlight for 2020, considering the challenges of COVID-19. The live weekly classes, access to a mentor and employability scorecard report at the end were features that I found particularly valuable. If there are others like me – i.e. without a design background typically associated with UX, so hesitant but still curious to learn – I would highly recommend enrolling in the Upskiller UX program.
