UX content training grants
We offer financial help for university students, marginalized communities, those facing financial hardships (including prohibitive currency exchange), and more.
Making accessible pathways
for UX content careers
UX content is a fundamental design discipline – it should be accessible to everyone from different backgrounds. Unfortunately, many people struggle to learn content design skills due to high costs. We believe the industry is better when people from a variety of backgrounds, countries, languages, and cultures, can contribute to the design process.
How training grants work
- Training grants are provided in the form of price reductions (30%, 50%, 75%, or 100%) for course or workshop costs
- We may provide custom pricing to some grant applicants based on, and payable in, their local currency
- Applications are open to anyone in any country
- There are a limited number of grants available every month, but there is no limit on the number of applications. (In other words, if you don’t get a training grant, you can apply again.)
- All our courses are in English, so you should have a good command of the language
- UXCC reserves the right to give, or withhold, training grants for any reason
