Figma Courses from the experts

With this powerful prototyping tool, Figma courses teach you to efficiently create prototypes for apps, websites, interfaces, and products. In these hands-on Figma courses, you discover how to quickly convert your concepts into working designs while including interactivity and maintaining fidelity to your original design.

Learn Figma from UX professionals who understand how to use It in a UX and UI workflow. Start with an introductory Figma class, or if you have a good understanding of building basic responsive layouts, consider the advanced Figma training. Not sure where your skills are? You can also call us to schedule a private Figma course for you, your group, or your team.

Regularly scheduled Figma classes cover fundamental skills that teach you to control object properties, create responsive controls and layouts using frames, build and use components, and start a design library. In contrast, advanced Figma classes cover deeper features in components such as variants and nested properties. The advanced class also covers variables, advanced layout controls, and methods for working more efficiently as a team using Figma.

Private Figma courses are available and can be customized to your specific needs. You can attend Figma training online as a live course, in person with an instructor who comes to your location, or in person at an American Graphics Institute classroom.

Figma has been widely adopted by many businesses because it lets teams work together online, in real time, and includes everything needed for designing and prototyping in one place. You don't need separate apps for designing and prototyping anymore. Figma works on the web inside your browser or it also has apps for both Mac and Windows, so everyone on a team can use it no matter where they are. Figma puts together many features that used to need different apps, like drawing, animating, and editing text. This means designers can do a lot with just Figma, from making drawings to creating animations that show how an app or website will work. As an online tool for designing and prototyping, Figma helps design teams work together at the same time. Most designers can learn the basics of Figma in just one day if they have the time to attend a course, and have experience with similar design tools such as Illustrator or Photoshop. The options for learning Figma include live classes, online courses, or at your own pace with free tutorials.

Because Figma is quite different from other design tools, those without any previous experience are not at a significant disadvantage, and can quickly gain foundational skills, especially with the help of Figma training. To learn more complex Figma capabilities, such as creating design systems, additional time is required for both learning and practicing. These advanced capabilities are covered in advanced Figma courses at AGI.
