Abhinav Chhikara
I had the good fortune of hiring designers, mentoring them and building the design team at Unacademy, an ed-tech startup that's now valued over $3.4 billion. The products designed by my team and I are used by millions of students and thousands of educators. It has helped Unacademy grow & raise investment from global investors like SoftBank, Sequoia Capital, Facebook, General Atlantic etc. However, something was still missing. In conversations with experienced designers in my network, we all agreed on a common problem: the state of design education in India was broken.
Comprehensive Curriculum

Month 1: Foundation
This stage is your orientation: meeting your cohort mates, understanding the history of design & getting your mindset and habits right. Learn the fundamentals of visual design & Figma & get thrown head-first into your first design project. Receive feedback & iterate.

Month 2: Process
Beyond fundamentals, it’s now time for frameworks. Understanding the design process, mental models, research, metrics and product. A mix of case studies & one in-depth assignment to apply theory to practice.
3
Month 3: Frameworks
Conceptualize your final capstone project to apply everything you've learnt. This stage also focusses on personal brand, preparing case studies with your projects so far and how to start finding opportunities – freelance, internships & full time roles.

Why choose a Cohort based course?
01
Learn and grow with a tribe
Be part of an exclusive and private community filled with people who will support and grow together. Courses are designed to facilitate peer learning and interaction through breakout groups, community activities and group projects.
02
Engaging Live Sessions
These are not like recorded online classes that you do in isolation. The sessions are designed to increase engagement. In this course, they won’t just deliver a lecture, they’ll engage the class, facilitate breakout discussions, and leave plenty of time for Q&A.
03
Ensuring feedback and accountability
You will get regular feedback throughout the course. And since this course is going to have live classes and community, this should lead to more accountability to drive your likelihood of success with the course.
