What students say:
Olga Golubeva
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
Tin Majetić
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.
Anastasia Matiienko
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.
Schneur Smith
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.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Our Freelance Ignite program has 2 prerequisites:
1. The ability to provide a service to clients (such as web design, branding, or development)
2. Having an existing portfolio with previous work or concept designs.
If you meet these requirements and are ready to kickstart your freelance business, Freelance Ignite is the ideal program for you. It will provide you with the business principles and strategies needed to launch or expand your freelance business quickly and efficiently, helping you attract your first or next few clients in just four weeks.
If you don't meet these requirements or need help building your design skills and creating a portfolio site, we recommend our Design Career Kickstarter bundle.
It depends on your goals and current situation. If you're just starting out, struggling to find clients, or want to solidify your freelance business foundation, Freelance Ignite is the right choice. However, if you're looking to take your established freelance business to 6-figures and beyond while maintaining a healthy work-life balance, the 6-Figure Freelance Designer course is a better fit.
The ideal choice for you depends on your existing skills and the presence of a portfolio site.
If you already have an eye for great design and a portfolio showcasing your work, Freelance Ignite will be enough.

Although it doesn't cover design-specific skills, it offers the foundation and strategies to launch, manage, and grow your freelance business while securing clients quickly and efficiently.
It depends on where you’re in your freelance career.

Our 6-Figure Freelance Designer course can help you build systems to take your freelance business to 6-figures while maintaining a healthy work-life balance.
If your freelance business has stalled and/or if you don’t have a clear picture of how to land new clients, then our Freelance Ignite program is for you — no matter how long you've been freelancing. On the other hand, if your main goal right now is taking your freelance business to 6-figures and beyond while maintaining a healthy work-life balance, check out our 6-Figure Freelance Designer course instead.
Not necessarily. Freelance Ignite covers business principles that will help any freelancer. If you’re ready to get serious about your freelance business and eager to attract your first (or next) few clients in as little as 4 weeks, you can still benefit from this action-packed program.
No. This is a business course for up-and-coming freelancer designers and career switchers, so we won't be focusing on doing any design work.. If you’re starting out in design and want to hone your visual design basics or need to create your build and launch your portfolio site, we recommend our Design Career Kickstarter bundle on this page.
This program is designed to be completed at your own pace, as you go through the 4 weeks of email content (plus, bonus video lessons). You will have the chance to connect with other students in the Flux Community.
Freelance Ignite is NOT about watching videos for long hours. It’s all about doing the assignments 2-3 times a week for 4 weeks to get measurable results. So, we expect 1-3 hours of commitment per week for 4 weeks, which will immediately translate to landing new clients, developing partnerships, or creating proposals for new projects.
This program is structured so you can progress at your own pace. And no matter where you are in the material, you’ll be able to benefit from our bonus video lessons and fill-in-the-blank templates.
Forever! You’ll get access to one new content 3 times a week, for 4 weeks. After that, the content is yours forever — including any updates we make in the future. You'll also get exclusive access to our Flux Community.
