FAQ
Figma. Yes that is it!
Most lessons have homework assignments so you can practice what you’ve learned.
Every week there is a live zoom session (you can choose from 2 time options to suite all time zones). During the session you can ask questions, shmooze with your fellow students and learn new concepts
You’ll have access to the course videos for two years.
You get to decide when to take those two classes each week, depending on what’s going on in your life.
There is also a mandatory weekly Zoom class where everyone checks in and we do a quick review (two times to accommodate different time zones).
You need a computer with (at least):
- I5 processor
- 8 GB RAM
- USB drive
- Mouse (not just a trackpad)
- 15-inch screen
- The ability to play audio and videos
We also recommend email or internet access if you plan to send in your projects for comments
For the USB package you will need a Windows computer, since the video files we send aren’t compatible with other models. (Sorry! You can still watch the videos online and get all other files by USB.)
In short: No.
During your time at The Bold Edge, you will get intense training in the essential software, design and business skills you need to succeed in the field.
