Courses I teach

organizations like Google, Airtel, SAP, Lollypop Design to name a few

UX Audit using Nielsen Heuristics

This course is published on Udemy and has helped thousands of students learn about the most fundamental aspects of usability

This course is for the professionals who want to gain better skills in communicating feedback and receiving feedback

Mastering Feedback for Effective Communication

"Totally indebted to my mentor Jagriti Pande for the valuable lessons regarding UX and otherwise. The course helped me to structure my UX processes and made me confident to take up the challenges regarding the same. I would highly recommend to go for the course not only to gain UX knowledge but some valuable life lessons to pick up along the journey. I made some really good friends and met people which helped to inspire to do more for the community as well. Thank you, Jagriti for doing this I had turning point in my career and Personal growth. I'm grateful and glad to be a part of this program."

- Nishita Joshi, Lead Experience Designer @ Bharti Airtel

”I was a student of the UX Immersion Program 2020 conducted by Jagriti. And it was one of the best experiences in terms of what I learnt, the network I built, the stories I heard and the skills I developed. I never thought I would be able to say that I enjoyed every moment of a 4-5 hour class, but that was exactly what happened. Jagriti structured each class in such a way that you don't realise how fast time flies. Classes were interactive, educative and fun. All the assignments that I did, built my skills towards building my final case studies and portfolio and also making me a confident
individual.”

-Nina Chandi, UX Designer @Google

"Jagriti is a great teacher, ofcourse you will learn software skills such as Figma, etc but where she shines is imbibing a way of thinking as a UX designer. Teaching you where to focus to solve a design problem, how to carry out the research to make that happen, how to communicate with participants for the usability testing. These are skills that are more difficult to teach in my personal opinion. "

- Sujit Oomen, Lead Experience Designer @Prickly Pear Health

"If you have her, helping you, for your product design, then 70% of your worries regarding the success of your product is off your shoulders and the only job left is to get it to the right market.. "
