They are professionals in their field. From the very beginning of the classes, you can feel how experienced Ran is in his field and really knows what he is talking about. I sit, write down and take notes a lot. I took 3 courses in a package and I feel that I will need to buy a separate thick notebook for each on, he-he. When I finish these, I want to take another course on in-depth design with Rachel. Thank for your big work, Ran
The best online school in the world for web design! I joined Flux Academy because I was an intermediate web designer and I already did some client projects but I wanted to bring more value and better work to my clients. I enrolled on 4 courses and after finishing 2 of them I can already say that I improved 10X my web design skills. Also, I met amazing people in the Flux community, lessons and assignments are insightful and packed with great info, and coaches really CARE about every single student and answer every question. The thing that surprised me the most is that courses are not "just watch the video" and that is all, they encourage you to do the work yourself, they have quizzes, assignments, the final exam for certification, live office hours and so much more. I would 100% recommend Flux Academy to any designer that wants to become a real PRO.
It's very valuable and interesting. The Flux Academy team is incredible. They're always there and will tell you how to do it better. Lots of useful tricks and feedback. A lot of interesting and unique information. I really enjoyed it.
I am a proud student of all 5 courses at Flux Academy, each one of these courses taught me something special. I went from charging $200 Per website to over $2000 per website in a matter of months. And it's only up from here, the sky is the limit.

Each module should take 3-4 hours of work — most of which will be spent designing. If you work on one module a week, you’ll be done with Core Design Skills in 5 weeks. The course is entirely self-faced though, so you can adjust your pace as you like.
This course is software-agnostic as it’s focused on how to apply design principles to any kind of design work. That being said, we will talk briefly about software and discuss a few free and paid alternatives you could use, but you don’t need to have previous experience using these tools.
All course videos come with closed captioning and transcripts. If you need any other accessibility features, email team@flux-academy.com and let us know. We’re eager to make our courses accessible and helpful to as many students as possible.
