The General Assembly User Experience Design Bootcamp (UXDB) hosts "real world" design challenges that provide hands-on experience for emerging talent to work with clients and stakeholders. This is an excellent opportunity for business leaders like you to access professional caliber research, design, and strategy for your product at no cost.
HOW IT WORKS:
Clients are assigned a team of UX design students, who collaborate with them to research and design an app, website, or other digital product in a 3-week sprint. As a client, you get implementable deliverables to hand-off to your team; and our students get to apply their skills to real business problems.
DESIGN SPRINT PROCESS:
1. Complete the application
2. Have a screening call with a GA team member
3. If your project is approved, meet your UX team
4. Define your project scope
5. Work with your team
6. Receive your solution presentation and deliverables
WHAT YOU GET:
All clients receive implementable design solutions and product insights. Solutions are customized, based on stakeholder goals, business needs — and above all, what will best suit the user. This includes user research, strategy, and design.
WHAT WE’LL NEED FROM YOU:
If you’re selected to participate, you’ll need to attend an initial, in-person kick-off meeting, as well as a 1-hour final presentation meeting where you’ll see the team’s finished work. You’ll also need to be available via email and phone 3-5 hours a week.
To ensure a successful project, you’ll need to provide existing metrics and analytics, design files and assets (style guides, fonts, etc), access to the site, product and/or feature in development, a representative sample of customers willing to take part in user interviews and usability tests, and consent for our designers to showcase project deliverables on their online portfolios.
