Go to design school part time. Complete a UX portfolio, then send it to the Studio Leads and take it from there.

Downward dog?

You can take great courses on Lynda online and start creating a portfolio and show to your studio leads

First learn if it’s what you want to do (and what your strengths are) before switching. Try online classes at Coursera.org and General Assembly. Through those classes you can start building a portfolio

Question about inclusion…. I’ve been teaching inclusion for 5 years so I’m still a newb, but a first year coworker of mine said she got points off on her observation because her kids were scattered in the classroom and she was having to move from kid to kid to assist. While I see the point of putting them together for convenience, I don’t agree with this at all! To me this is like singling them out by putting them all together instead of INCLUDED amongst peers. What do y’all think?
