FAQ

(Yes, we’re mind readers on the side 😁)
What do I need to know before taking the course?
You need to be very comfortable using a computer, and be familiar with Photoshop and Illustrator and design concepts. If you’ve already learned graphic design, we’ll review your work or give you a design assignment to assess your skills. Students coming in without any design knowledge at all will need to take our mini design course, which covers essential topics related to web design.
Which software will I need?

Figma. Yes that is it!

How does the course work?
Each lesson is delivered in a video recording where you’ll hear the instructor talk while you view what she’s doing on her screen. You can pause, rewind and rewatch. The lessons come with files so you can try out the skills on your own.

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.
How long will it take to complete the course?
The course is given over a six/seven month period, with two lessons scheduled per week.

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).
What kind of computer do I need?

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.)

Do you offer college credits

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.

Credits? Not needed to get a great job as a web designer. You’ll graduate with a professional portfolio and the confidence gained from hands-on practice. And don’t forget, our dedicated job placement team will work on getting you jobs after you graduate.

What happens if I have a question during the course? And what about afterward?

Glad you asked. 🙂 Support is one of the hallmarks of The Bold Edge courses. We believe in being there for any questions you have. The Web Design course includes a FULL year of support and project feedback. (OK, that’s not really accurate. We actually answer our graduates’ questions way after they finish the course, too!)

How will I find work?
This course has a lot of success converting raw talent into professional skills. Businesses know this and reach out to us all the time when they’re looking for fresh talent.

We also have a dedicated Job Development team that networks, makes connections, and develops job leads for our students. Our team sends out daily emails with job leads, and regularly posts job openings that we find all over the world.

Over the past year alone, we have sent out over 366 job leads!
What will I complete the course with?
You’ll have in-depth knowledge of web design and marketing. By the end of the course, you’ll also have a complete WordPress informational website, ecommerce website, and eventually your own personal website to show off!
This course is an investment. How do I know if it’s a good fit for me before I commit?
