Our take
Despite the prominent role of design in creating user-popular websites and apps, the training available to designers is dwarfed by that aimed at development, with little options to pick from. Uxcel supplies an interactive learning platform for designers to train and upskill in UX/UI, empowering them to build their careers in design.
Uxcel was founded in 2019 by a designer, to combat the lack of training resources available to their peers; beginning its life on Instagram delivering pocket-sized interactive learning experiences, with the platform then being launched in 2020. The company offers interactive courses and, uniquely, skill tests, so that users can not only learn but maintain their UX/UI skills. Additionally it supplies hiring resources and other tools for building successful careers in design.
Uxcel has seen good levels of growth, showcasing that it has achieved a strong product market fit, which bodes well for the company’s future. It has received good levels of funding to support this growth, and allow it to develop its product and expand its teams.
