TTFA Academy · A fellowship for people at work
For graphic or visual designerUI/UX Designer
Research, wireframes, prototypes and design systems in Figma, reviewed the way a product team reviews. From graphic or visual designer to UI/UX Designer, taught by people who do the job.
Designed for AI-native design roles: the AI in the Design Workflow module covers Figma AI for first drafts, research synthesis with an assistant, AI copy and imagery for prototypes, and the judgement to check all of it.
Curriculum updated
UI/UX Designer Fellowship is a live online program for the graphic or visual designer: the next step is being seen as an UI/UX Designer. Research, wireframes, prototypes and design systems in Figma, reviewed the way a product team reviews. Classes run over 24–36 weeks on weeknight evenings and weekends in IST and are recorded the same day, so a late shift doesn't cost you the week. You work in Figma, Design systems and Prototyping on projects modelled on the mentors' production work, each reviewed 1:1, with doubt-solving on the LMS between classes. A counsellor confirms the batch, the schedule and the fee on one call; nothing is charged on the call.
Why this program
Results, your career, the part of the job you do by hand today, and who teaches it.
Results-focused
Research, wireframes, prototypes and a design system in Figma, on real briefs, reviewed the way a design lead reviews work.
Career-focused
You have the eye. The programme adds user research, information architecture, prototyping and usability testing: the product work the role is hired for.
Pain-point focused
You learn to find out why before you draw: research, testing and the iterations in between. Then the design earns its place.
Premium and professional
Mentors who design products in production, briefs modelled on their own, 1:1 critique of every screen, recordings the same day. For designers who want to be taken seriously.
Who this is for
You already do part of this job. The program closes the gap between where you are and being seen as a UI/UX Designer.
Probably not for you, yet
If you haven't worked in the domain at all, a counsellor will say so on the call and point you to a better starting program. If you want a certificate more than a portfolio, this isn't it.
What you'll build
Each project is modelled on the mentors' production work and reviewed 1:1. Together they are your portfolio.
Project 1
Modelled on the mentor's production work, with the messy parts left in, reviewed 1:1.
Project 2
Brief, build, review: the way a manager would hand it to you, with the checks that stop it breaking next month.
Project 3
Published, documented and defended, with the notes a senior would give you.
Curriculum
24 to 36 weeks, depending on your pace. Each module ends with an assignment a mentor reviews.

How the weeks run
A counsellor confirms the exact days and times for your batch on the call.
Two evenings a week with the mentor, on the work of the week.
Project time with the mentor in the room: build, get stuck, get unstuck.
Every class recorded the same day; 1:1 doubt-solving whenever you're stuck.
Your projects reviewed like production work, with notes you can act on.
Questions
Anything else: ask on the call.
Yes. The program assumes you know your work, not the tool. If you've never worked in the domain, a counsellor will point you to a better start.
Every class is recorded the same day, and 1:1 slots exist for exactly this. Most people who fall behind catch up in a week.
There is career support: mock interviews, profile reviews and referrals where we have them. Nobody honest can promise you a role; your projects make the case for you.
Both. UI/UX Designer Fellowship is VILT (virtual instructor-led training): live online classes in the evenings and on weekends, in IST, recorded the same day so you can rewatch them. It runs 24–36 weeks, depending on your pace.
Designed for AI-native design roles: the AI in the Design Workflow module covers Figma AI for first drafts, research synthesis with an assistant, AI copy and imagery for prototypes, and the judgement to check all of it.
Figma, Design systems and Prototyping, the way they are used at work, on projects modelled on the mentors' own. The curriculum section lists every module and topic.
Fees are not published on the site. A counsellor confirms the fee, GST and the instalment options in writing after one call; nothing is charged on the call.
Notes
Researched by the mentors, with every source and the date it was last checked.
A counsellor looks at what you do today and tells you, straight, whether UI/UX Designer Fellowship is the right next step.
