The UXIFC Foundations program runs for 16 weeks and consists of live instructor-led sessions conducted online.

What makes UXIFC different from other UX courses?
UXIFC combines human-centered design, product thinking, AI-native workflows, live cohort learning, practical assignments, and industry-relevant methodologies.
