Amazing Course!
meparece genial
Fantastic Course, especially the strategic thinking covering Brand and systems design!
Muy buen curso, me dedico al área de ux y aunque conocía el tema, pude aprender cosas nuevas y una nueva forma de estructurar el trabajo. Recomiendo tomarse el tiempo para hacer el curso y ver todos los recursos, son muy útiles.
Sólo recomiendo tomar notas propias ya que las de los recursos no se entienden bien al ser traducidas
Recomendable!
