Course Projects
These projects built by former students are great examples of what you’ll build throughout this course.
GOcery Redesign
View LiveGOcery is a grocery delivery app that specializes in the Asian grocery niche. However, it arguably lacks the level of UX refinement to compete with its polished, high-profile alternatives like Instacart and Grocery Gateway. For this project, UX Design student Alex Huang completed a case study of GOcery’s app, and considered how a redesign would be an opportunity to provide safer, easier, and more efficient access to groceries for users who need it the most — as well as be more appealing to its audience of Canadian ethnic shoppers.
A Human-Centred take on Seniors and Technology
View LiveIn our UX Design course, students are tasked to use design thinking to propose a solution for a real-world problem. In this project, Juno graduate Mahsa Yavari explores the issue of seniors’ disengagement from technology, by first understanding and examining the root causes.

What people are saying about Juno
I felt the community was very welcoming and I got a really strong introduction to UX. I definitely left with some more solidified ideas about the field and the process. My teachers also gave lots of "real world" examples and were honest about the field.

I find that the applicability of the concepts covered during the class worked well to plug gaps in my own skillset and workflow.

If you’re looking for someone who will only teach you how to make pretty things, this might not be the best course for you. But if you want to learn how to use qualitative and quantitative research to solve problems with beautiful design, then you’ve hit the jackpot with this class.

I took the UX course and it was even better than I expected! Ricardo is hands down one of the BEST instructors I’ve ever had. He’s so knowledgeable and his enthusiasm for design is contagious. What struck me the most was how he was able to teach topics that are interesting to both UX designers and people with no design background.

UX Design FAQs
All of Juno's Bootcamps, courses, and workshops are offered Live Online, so you can learn with us from anywhere in the world. All you need is a computer and a reliable internet connection!
You'll need a laptop for every class! If you are unable to provide your own, we offer a limited number of Macbooks for rent for our In-Person classes, at a rate of $100/month plus HST with a refundable security deposit of $250. Please let us know as soon as possible if you require a laptop rental.
To participate in our Live Online courses, you must have:
- A computer with working speakers and microphone — a laptop or desktop computer is fine!
- A modern operating system - MacOS 10 or higher, Windows 7 or higher, or equivalent. We recommmend you use:
- An Apple laptop newer than 6 years old running one of the 3 most recent major releases of MacOS (currently: 10.14 (Mojave) or newer)
- A PC laptop newer than 4 years old running Windows 10
- A strong and consistent internet connection: at least 10Mbps download and 5Mbps upload — you can check your speeds for free here!
Machines outside these parameters may still work, but might have issues running the software and tooling needed to complete coursework. Juno will only be able to provide limited support to older computers, OS versions, and other operating systems not listed above (e.g. Linux). At this time, laptops running ChromeOS (“Chromebooks”) don’t easily run the software and tools we need for coursework at Juno, and cannot be used with our courses.
To make the most of your Live Online experience, we also recommend:
- A working web cam (it doesn’t have to be the greatest quality)!
- An external monitor if you're using a laptop, or a secondary monitor if you're using a desktop computer
- A comfortable desk and chair
- Noise-cancelling headphones
- A positive attitude!
Juno's UX Design course is designed for developers, designers, marketers, and other customer-facing professionals who are looking to upskill in their careers.

No, this course isn't only for designers! Developers, product managers, marketers, and any other customer-facing roles are encouraged to join this course. While existing visual design knowledge will be helpful in this course, it's not required.
There are no prerequisites or tech challenges required to enroll in Juno's UX Design course, though the course will be most beneficial for those already working as designers, designers, marketers, and other customer-facing roles.
This course does not cover how to use any Adobe programs. There will be a brief lesson on visual design best practices and how to use Figma so that everyone has the working knowledge needed to complete exercises and projects.
