Learn how to use AI tools to transform your UX design workflow. From user research synthesis and persona creation to wireframing, UX copy, usability testing analysis, and accessibility auditing — discover practical AI techniques that save hours every week. No coding required.
This free course teaches UX designers how to bring AI into every stage of their workflow, from early research through prototyping and final accessibility review. You will start by learning how to write effective prompts as a designer, then move through hands-on modules covering user research synthesis, data-driven persona creation, competitor UX audits, wireframing ideation, and UX copy and microcopy. No coding background is needed, and the course is built specifically for designers who want practical techniques they can apply straight away.
The course goes beyond basic tool introductions. Later modules cover AI-powered usability testing analysis, maintaining design systems with AI assistance, and accessibility auditing, giving you a workflow that spans the full design process. You will also explore how to build custom GPTs tailored to your own UX processes and how to chain prompts together using AI agents for more complex, repeatable tasks.
Whether you are a student studying UX, a junior designer building your skills, or an experienced practitioner looking to work faster and more confidently, this course gives you a concrete toolkit.
