UI/UX Designer Fellowship

They provide good placement plus great course real time learning and so detailed program and good for beginners in this field. I would recommend this course to all of you who are starting in this field. Plus meha ma'am guidance is a big plus point why you should enroll for this course.

My experience with NextLeap was largely disappointing. While Arindam Sir’s sessions were informative, the content itself was nothing beyond what is already freely available on YouTube. Much of the course revolved around installing tools and following along, rather than offering deep, original learning or meaningful mentorship.I did find a few guest sessions valuable, but considering I paid ₹40,000, the overall value did not justify the cost. Despite making three attempts, I was unable to clear the evaluation rounds. What felt particularly unfair was that several candidates who relied heavily on AI tools such as Google Stitch to generate designs were selected, while I combined AI with my own design skills and was still rejected—without receiving clear or actionable feedback. The reasons given for rejection felt vague and unconvincing.Another major issue was the project submission process. Their website frequently faced technical glitches during submissions, which made uploading projects frustrating and unreliable. These issues were never acknowledged or taken into consideration during evaluations, even though they directly impacted the submission experience.During the course, Akansha was responsive, but once the program ended, communication dropped significantly. It felt like there was little genuine concern for students after enrollment. The team makes strong efforts to get you to enroll, using big promises and confident messaging, but the post-enrollment experience does not reflect those claims.There is significant hype around this course online, which raises expectations. Unfortunately, the reality does not match the marketing. The level of assistance, mentorship, and accountability offered is minimal, especially when compared to established institutions. For anyone considering this program, I would recommend first strengthening your basics through free resources like YouTube and then investing in programs from reputed institutes that provide structured learning and real guidance.This is my honest experience, shared to help others make a more informed decision.

Joining the NextLeap Product Design Fellowship was one of the best career decisions I made. I learned to approach problems with empathy, design with purpose, and communicate my ideas effectively. The mentorship and structured projects helped me grow, while the career services team supported me throughout my job search — from refining my portfolio to preparing for interviews. Thanks to NextLeap, I not only became a better designer but also secured my first product design role.

NextLeap is a community that truly empowers aspiring designers. Before joining I had passion but lacked direction, and NextLeap has been instrumental in my design journey, It's where I built a strong foundation and got clear understanding on the fundamentals of design. The curriculum is thoughtfully structured, and the hands-on approach helped me not just learn, but truly internalise key concepts. The guidance from the instructors and mentors was incredibly valuable, their constant encouragement and practical insights made all the difference. Forever grateful to this community!

NextLeap’s Product Design Fellowship helped me smoothly transition from architecture to product design. The hands-on projects, mentor feedback, and real-world challenges really sharpened my skills. Being selected as a Top Fellow was a proud milestone in my journey. 

Before joining the bootcamp, I had a basic idea of UI design but didn’t fully understand the “why” behind good product design. This bootcamp changed that for me.The structure was clear, the mentors were supportive, and the projects felt real and practical. I learned not just how to make things look good, but how to solve real user problems with design.What I appreciated most was the constant feedback and guidance. It pushed me to think deeper and improve with every step. The community was also super helpful – we shared ideas, gave feedback, and grew together.It wasn’t always easy. Some days were intense and challenging, but looking back, it was worth it. I now feel more confident in my process, from research to wireframing to presenting my work.

I had an incredible learning journey with NextLeap's Product Design Fellowship. The course provided a well-structured, hands-on approach to mastering UX/UI design concepts. What stood out most was the emphasis on real-world applications through practical projects that challenged me to think critically and apply my skills effectively.
The mentorship was exceptional, with experienced industry professionals offering valuable feedback and guidance throughout the course. I particularly appreciated the collaborative learning environment, where I could engage with peers and gain diverse perspectives.Completing the fellowship not only deepened my understanding of product design but also boosted my confidence in tackling complex design challenges. I highly recommend NextLeap to anyone looking to enhance their product design skills and advance their career in UX/UI.

I was enrolled in Product Design Fellowship last year. What I really liked about the whole program was industry aligned course. The instructors were practicing Design & Product professionals and the mentors were available every week to solve our issues and help us build our portfolio showcases. The mentor I was assigned to also helped us in understanding the course milestone evaluations and also gave us an Idea of the product certification assessment. If you are looking to learn and ready to put in hours for this course then it will be a rewarding experience in the longer run. 

Next leap was the right decision I made when I chose product designing to be my career. The syllabus covered everything for a person to kick start his career in product designing. They also made us do practical project along with the classes so that we understood the meaning of doing each steps. And at last we had to do projects with 3 chances . So after completing the course I had 3 projects to keep in my portfolio. We also had full time assistance. We could ask doubts any time . Message or a call .Even if it took some time I got placed as a design intern at rise11technologies.

My journey with NextLeap has been truly rewarding. The streamlined course structure helped me identify what I was missing and guided me to fill those gaps effectively. From interactive sessions to tasks like LIPs and grad projects, every step taught me something valuable while enhancing my UX/UI skills. The placement support is impressive, connecting with top startups and good companies, making it a perfect choice for anyone seeking direction in this field.

 From engaging projects to detailed feedback, every task is structured to enhance your design thinking and problem-solving skills. The time management skills I developed during my graduation project were further refined, thanks to their guidance.The mentors are highly knowledgeable and approachable, ensuring a supportive learning environment. Their real-world insights and personalized feedback helped me bridge the gap between academic learning and industry expectations.

The fellowship formed a strong foundation for me as a designer. I made sure to be in sync with the course calendar, and that helped me a lot in becoming a Top Fellow in the first attempt itself. I got to meet incredible design instructors- the best of the industry and an absolutely great mentor. Becoming a top fellow opened gates for placement support, and the team proactively made sure of sending profiles of fellows to apt openings. The hassle of getting an internship was shared by the career team helping me focus only on take home assignments and interviews, rather than putting energy into finding vacancies and following up with recruiters.
