How do you choose the right UX course there are so many available in the market. I already took one from OCAD University and it did not help me. Just a ppt portfolio.

Can anyone please suggest or advice on what is a good school because that’s how I prefer learning being a neurodivergent person I need some help and a structured course. I’m a graphic designer with nine years of experience experience and looking to transition so anything which helps me get another role in Canada.

I've heard some good comments on Coderhouse careers in UX/UI

Look for a place that teaches design thinking and building case studies. I also think connecting with the right mentor creates the best experience for students. You have a professional resource and hopefully a connection you can reach out to after the program ends.
