Validating excellence in UX education

We want you to learn the most relevant and up-to-date skills. That’s why we formed an Industry Advisory Council, consisting of technology industry employers, design leaders and recruiters. The Council serves as our main line to the industry, playing a vital role in overseeing the development of our courses, and making sure they are employer-focused and forward-thinking.

Setting a global standard

The Industry Advisory Council, along with university accreditation, helps to set a globally recognised standard for our educational programmes. Employers and recruiters have confidence that graduates from the UX Design Institute have achieved the highest level of UX education, and have acquired skills and experience that are relevant and up-to-date.

Who makes up the Industry Advisory Council?

Members of the council are comprised of three main types of organisations; global technology leaders that employ UX graduates and professionals; startups and agencies making practical use of the latest design techniques; as well as recruitment agencies involved in sourcing and placing UX professionals.
