The UX world initially felt overwhelming. I came from teaching, not tech, and every other platform left me confused. IxDF didn’t. I started with Become a UX Designer from Scratch. Each section introduced tools and terms through practical examples, not textbook definitions. Lessons included visuals, quizzes, and guided paths that made it all feel manageable. I joined a local IxDF group, built out mock projects, and stayed motivated. After a year, I had a working portfolio. It included wireframes, real personas, and clean design flows. I applied for internships and got one. The structure and support made all the difference.

From starting my first Design Thinking course to landing a job as a UX Designer in another big organisation took me just 6 months. IxDF has shaped my basic as well as advanced skills in Experience Design and gave me a lot of confidence in my design process and decision making. IxDF has a one of the Best design education from industry experts, compact and effective when applied it unleashes the power of Kraken.
Reasons why I go there for years:- Price! unbeatable compared to other platforms - Content! Highly verified content by best of the best UX/UI people with real psychological background - Time! Go as you wish, taking a 4 week break is no problem. - Contact! Wow, a platform where you actually get personal feedback within shortest time.
I joined IxDF in 2024, completely new to the field of UX. Looking back after a year, the transformation I’ve experienced is incredible. The content is structured with clarity and depth — from foundational topics to advanced UX strategy — and always supported by practical examples and real-world applications. What makes this platform stand out is not just the quality of the materials, but also the vision behind it. I genuinely admire the founders for building such a rich and accessible learning ecosystem from the ground up. It’s clear that every detail has been crafted with care. IxDF hasn’t just taught me UX — it’s empowered me to think like a designer. Thank you for creating a space where learners from all backgrounds can grow with confidence.
I joined IxDF a few years ago while transitioning from graphic design to UX design. Before that, I was learning through YouTube tutorials and free courses from various websites. While those resources gave me a basic understanding, they eventually became repetitive and remained at an introductory level. IxDF, however, offered structured courses from well-reputed experts that really helped me grow, which for me was worth the investment. With the knowledge I gained, I was able to create my first portfolio, and the certificates I earned caught the attention of a few recruiters on LinkedIn. Now, it's my third year, as a UX designer and I'm still learning with IxDF. They consistently update their course material to keep up with new technology, and their customer support has been exceptional. Overall, I’ve had a really positive experience and couldn't be happier.
I am a self-taught UI/UX designer, and a huge part of my learning comes from IxDF. As a fresher with a master's in Information Technology and no prior background in UI / UX, I built a strong foundation through their courses.Initially, I was skeptical, as many platforms are profit - driven, leveraging trends and niches to attract customers only to leave them astray.But IxDF was different—I received incredible support from one of the co - founders, Rikke Friis Dam.When I faced issues with course enrollment, she made exceptions that allowed me to complete my courses.for instance, IxDF usually limits users to two active courses at a time, and enrolled courses must be completed.I mistakenly enrolled in a course and reached out to her—without rigidly citing policies, she understood my situation and helped me switch courses.More recently, when my professional membership ended, I applied for a student membership, which only allows two active courses.At the time, I had three.She granted me a grace period to complete one course and converted the remaining grace days into credits, reducing my membership cost.IxDF remains my go - to platform for its outstanding support, genuine care for its members, and industry - relevant courses designed by professionals.
A game-changing resource for UX professionals. After two years of being a member of the Interaction Design Foundation, I can proudly say it has been the most impactful source of knowledge in my career, from Master Classes to carefully crafted courses by world-leading UX experts. I have never regretted renewing my membership, even if I did not make huge academic progress every year, because just one course can elevate your career to the next level if you choose wisely and focus on what you need to grow. For anyone serious about professional development, IxDF should become part of your lifestyle. Apply the knowledge practically, and you will progress toward your career goals.
My background in psychology laid the groundwork for diving into user experience, but I was not prepared for how much smoother the journey would be with this supportive community. The curriculum strikes the perfect balance between video and text, matching my preferred learning style. This blend brings complex ideas to life and makes it easier to apply them in real-world contexts. Embarking on a career shift is never easy, but the encouragement, guidance, and mentorship I received have been vital to keeping me on track. I also feel profoundly grateful for the scholarship awarded to me—it is not just financial help; it is a vote of confidence that has empowered me to thrive in this new field. I am eager to keep growing and learning alongside this incredible community. Thank you, IxDF family <3
The Interaction Design Foundation, IxDF, has been an absolute game-changer in my design journey. Over the past year, I have taken so many of their courses, and each one has expanded my skills in UX, usability, and interface design in ways that are both practical and immediately applicable. What sets IxDF apart is the clarity and structure of their curriculum. Complex topics are broken down into digestible, well-paced lessons that respect your time without cutting corners. Standouts for me include Personas and User Research with William Hudson, which gave me concrete, repeatable methods for building user-centered products from the ground up. And if you are ready to dig deeper, Formal Design Methods: Formalism and Design with Professor Alan Dix is in a class of its own. It is one of the most impactful courses I have taken—online or anywhere. It reframed how I think about design structure, logic, and the systems behind user experience. It is not light reading, but it is foundational in the best possible way. The instructor lineup is rock-solid. William Hudson, Alan Dix, Frank Spillers (his accessibility content is essential), and the legendary Don Norman all bring serious expertise to the table. It is not just theory—it is grounded, actionable, and rooted in real-world best practices. With a global community of designers, local meetups, and a platform that keeps getting better, IxDF is easily one of the best investments I have made in my ongoing design education. If you are serious about mastering the craft—or just keeping your skills razor-sharp—this is where you want to be.
I am happy to be a part of the IxDF community! As someone who grew up in Armenia with limited opportunities to interact and learn from professionals, this platform has given me a solid foundation. Some technologies are still not easily accessible in my country, so understanding new tools and innovations is especially important for a UX designer. Thanks to IxDF, I am gaining these valuable skills. I am truly grateful to the founders and lecturers—they are incredibly kind and responsive. Whenever I have sent an email or mentioned someone in a LinkedIn post, they have always replied. I highly recommend the IxDF community to anyone looking to grow in the UX field.
IxDF has been a lifeline for me during an ongoing challenging career transition. The platform is packed with well-structured, insightful materials and genuinely helpful guidance, which I relied on throughout my master’s degree as a valuable additional source, and continued to use afterwards. What truly sets IxDF apart is the human touch. People like Rikke go above and beyond to support members, even during difficult times. Highly recommended for anyone serious about learning UX the right way.
I found the Interaction Design Foundation, IxDF, at a point when I was exploring the shift from a safety design and construction background into the world of UX and service design. What I did not expect was how deeply it would help me connect the dots across my past experience and give structure to my growth as a designer. Through IxDF, I gained not only strong foundational knowledge, but also the confidence to lead community events, collaborate across disciplines, and grow professionally, both as a UX designer and as a mentor to others. What makes IxDF special is the depth of the content, the supportive community, and the clear focus on real-world, human-centered design, not just flashy tools or trends. If you are looking for a space to grow, rethink how you work, or just connect with others who genuinely care about design, IxDF is it!
