So, whether you see yourself as a web developer, in user experience design, or in digital marketing, these courses could help you. Apart from being super informative, they will also save you time and money in the long run as they could save you from investing in a career or degree program that you’re not totally sure you’d like.

This way, you can try it out and decide for yourself. Or, you can simply stop by the open house summer social event on June 2 to have a beer and chat with the experts at RED Academy.

Some of the full and part-time courses offered at RED Academy:

• Web development
• App development
• User experience design
• User interface design
• Digital marketing

Not only do you get to build your portfolio and gain real project experience, but you learn from industry professionals – like your teachers. And, this all happens in a cool, community-minded environment where learning flows creatively.
