• What is a UX designer?

  User experience (UX) designers focus on the experience that users have while using products like websites, apps, and physical objects. UX designers make those everyday interactions useful, enjoyable, and accessible. The role of an entry-level UX designer might include coming up with ideas to address user problems, conducting research with users, and designing wireframes, mockups, and prototypes.

  If you enjoy talking to and empathizing with people, drawing, thinking creatively, or paying attention to details, a job as a UX designer might be a good fit for you!

• Why start a career in UX design?

  As the digital world continues to expand, companies recognize that designing good user experiences is a necessity, which is why UX design is a high-growth and in-demand job field. UX designers create and organize products that people interact with daily, like mobile apps, websites, smart watches, and even physical products.

• What background knowledge is necessary?

  None! Whether you’re completely new to the job field or have had some exposure, a Google Career Certificate is the right program for you.

• Do I need to take the courses in a specific order?

  We highly recommend taking the courses of each certificate program in the order presented, as the content builds on information from earlier courses.

• Which tools or platforms are included in the curriculum?

  Figma and Adobe XD are the design tools taught in this certificate program. Spreadsheets, word processing applications, and presentation applications will also be used. Throughout the program, you will create a professional portfolio, using the platform of your choice, to showcase your UX design work.

• What will I be able to do upon completing the professional certificate?

  Google Career Certificates are designed to prepare you for an entry-level role in job fields like IT support, data analytics, project management, or UX design - whether that’s doing in-person or remote work, at a small company or a large enterprise organization. Upon completion of the certificate, you will have the option to share your information with top U.S. employers that are hiring entry-level professionals, like Cognizant, H&R Block, Hulu, JM Smucker, Infosys, Intel, KForce, MCPc, PNC Bank, RICOH USA, TEKSystems, UPMC, Veterans United Home Loans, Walmart and of course, Google. Currently, access to jobs in the employer consortium is only available to those eligible to work in the U.S., but it is expanding to India, Europe, and other regions soon.

• Which jobs does this program prepare for?

  One of the most exciting parts about joining the field of user experience is the large number of job opportunities available. Nearly every company needs UX designers to help create their digital and physical products. While the need for UX designers continues to grow, there is currently a shortage of UX design professionals to fill those roles. 

  A career in UX design allows you the opportunity to work as a generalist, finding a role as a UX designer, UI designer, or UX researcher, or as a specialist, like a visual designer or interaction designer. Upon completion of this certificate program, you will be able to search for jobs with all of these titles, and find the role that best suits you.

• What resources will be available to help with the job search process?

  In addition to expert-led training and hands-on projects designed to prepare you for a job, you'll get access to interview tips, mock interviews and resume building workshops, career coaching sessions and more. You'll also be able to connect with over 130 U.S. employers who are searching for candidates who have completed a Google Career Certificate.

• What kind of companies hire UX design professionals?

  Organizations of all kinds, in industries as varied as technology, finance, and advertising, need UX designers to develop products. 

• Why did Google create this program?

  Google had long faced an issue that many other companies also contend with: we had open IT Support roles, and not enough qualified candidates to fill them. So we built and tested a training program to provide pathways to jobs in technical support at Google, for people with no college degree or experience.  In 2018, Google launched the IT Support Career Certificate, so that this training could be available to everyone. Since then, thousands of people have completed the program, making it the top professional certificate program on Coursera. 82% of U.S. program graduates report a positive career outcome within 6 months of completion, such as getting a new job, promotion or raise. 

  When we saw the positive impact this program was having on people all over the world, we wanted to expand into additional fast-growing, high-paying career fields – Project Management, Data Analytics and UX Design. These certificates, built and taught by Google, are designed to prepare people from all backgrounds for jobs where there is great demand for qualified candidates. Like the IT Support Certificate, no degree or relevant experience is required, and at the completion of the program, graduates will be able to connect directly with over 130 U.S. employers who are accepting Google Career Certificates for open jobs.

• Is this program offered in other languages?

  This certificate is currently available globally in English. We are working on adding more languages soon. Some tools - like the employer consortium - are only available in the United States at this time. Please check back here for updates.

• How much does this certificate cost?

  In the U.S. and Canada, Coursera charges $39/month after the initial 7 day free trial period. The certificate can be completed in less than 6 months of part time study, meaning most learners complete for under $300 USD. In other countries where the IT Support Certificate is available, your cost may be lower. Google does not generate any revenue from Google Career Certificates and has made need-based financial assistance available.

• Can I get college credit for taking the Google UX Design Certificate?

  Those planning to attend a degree program can utilize ACE®️ recommendations, the industry standard for translating workplace learning to college credit. Learners can earn a recommendation of 10 college credits for completing the UX Design Certificate, the equivalent of 3-4 college courses at the bachelor’s degree level. This aims to help open up additional pathways to learners who are interested in higher education, and prepare them for entry-level jobs.

  To share proof of completion with schools, certificate graduates will receive an email prompting them to claim their Credly badge, which contains the ACE®️ credit recommendation.  Once claimed, they will receive a competency-based transcript that signifies the credit recommendation, which can be shared directly with a school from the Credly platform. Please note that the decision to accept specific credit recommendations is up to each institution and is not guaranteed.
