• Guide learners through practical projects using tools such as Figma, Adobe XD, and Miro.
• Support learners in developing user‑centred design skills — from research and wireframing to prototyping and testing.
• Mentor participants on portfolio development, design case studies, and interview preparation.
• Embed employability skills and promote progression into junior UX/UI roles, creative apprenticeships, or further study.
• Collaborate with employer partners and guest speakers to deliver live briefs, real‑world challenges, and portfolio reviews.
• Monitor learner progress, provide constructive feedback, and maintain accurate records in line with funding and quality requirements.
• Champion inclusivity and accessibility, supporting learners from a wide range of backgrounds to achieve their goals.

Essential Skills and Experience

• Professional experience in UX/UI or Product Design.
• Strong knowledge of user‑centred design and accessibility principles.
• Proficiency in Figma, Adobe XD, and similar design tools.
• Excellent communication and mentoring skills.
• Experience in training, coaching, or supporting adult learners (preferred but not essential).

• Create accessible, engaging digital prototypes.
• Build a professional portfolio aligned with industry standards.
• Gain interview experience and direct access to employer opportunities.
