Learn how to make the right choices to support your company's unique audience. Align with brand voice, develop styles, and articulate the "why" behind your content decisions.
UX writing demands empathy and a deep understanding of user goals and needs. Develop your user-centered writing muscles to deliver what your audience requires in the moment.
Just need the basic rules on how to write for translation and localization? We cover those and more. Learn to write content that meets many accessibility best practices—or take our skills courses and become a pro.
Learn how to write for common components like lists, dialogs, alerts, error messages, onboarding, and forms. Analyze your UI to assess the need for microcopy, tooltips, and other info paths.
Companies come in all flavors and sizes, but team dynamics and roles are largely predictable. Understand how to represent content design to other internal teams, how to defend your work, and how to deliver outputs like audits, copy docs, and light content test results.
We're a verified education provider with Figma. You'll leave our course with hands-on experience using Figma to design app content, collaborate with designers on wireframes, and make decisions across task flows to meet your users' needs.

Time estimates fall around 20-40 hours of study and practice work for this course depending on your speed. There are 7 units in the UX Writing Fundamentals course. Each unit is broken down into a series of 4-6 lessons with practice quizzes and reviews along the way. To be certified, you must receive a passing score on a challenging UX writing final project and a final exam.
This course is designed to fit around your schedule. Lessons are available on-demand at any time. There is no live instruction, so you’re free to study whenever you have time.
By the end of the course, you’ll have designed your first UX writing samples to include in your writing portfolio.
You do need to have some knowledge of user experience design and methods.
This course is currently offered only in English. For students to be certified, the ability to write and read in fluent English is required. If English is not your primary language, please take this free test before signing up for the course to assess your English-proficiency level. If your score is at C1 or above, you’re ready to take the course. If you score below C1, it’s unlikely that we’ll be able to certify you. Thanks for your understanding.

If you earn a certification, you will be fully trained to join a company as an entry-level UX writer. The success rate for getting hired as a Certified UX Writer is very high. We can’t guarantee that you’ll land a job, but we have a good support network in place to make it easier.
Landing a job seems to be heavily dependent on where you’re located. San Francisco, Seattle, NYC, Tel Aviv, Dublin, and other tech-heavy regions have the most open roles. Remote jobs are more common now, but still in high demand. We also offer a Jobs board to connect you with hiring managers, and coaching to help with interview preparation and fine-tuning your portfolio.
UX Content Collective also publishes a Jobs newsletter with job listings from around the globe.
