Thinking about enrolling in Coursera's UX course after the Cybersecurity one.To give you a little background, a few months ago I finished that Google/Coursera UX design course. I enrolled in the course initially just as something to do, but I found that I really enjoyed doing it.
After finishing the program, I got a part time entry level position in UX design(I'm a CPA as my full time job).
What else should I learn as I continue to advance in UX design? Should I learn some coding?(HTML/CSS)
Reps for any advice![]()
If you can take a General Assembly bootcamp, that would be your best bet.To give you a little background, a few months ago I finished that Google/Coursera UX design course. I enrolled in the course initially just as something to do, but I found that I really enjoyed doing it.
