Student Success Story: Brendan Murray

Brendan completed our 12-Week part-time Product Design course in August 2021. He is currently working as a Senior UX Designer at British Red Cross.

We caught up with him recently to see how the course helped him achieve his goals and his pearls of wisdom for any budding product designers.

Tell us a bit more about what you were doing before you decided to pivot into design?

I was working for a creative technology agency. My projects focused on building bespoke innovation centres for our consulting clients, and directly supporting the users of those centres. 

How was training at Experience Haus different from other providers?

The in-person course felt more tailored to individual students, rather than being diploma mill style templated worksheets. It’s also priced a lot more competitively than similar providers. 

What was the highlight of your course?

The opportunities to make real human connections with the other students and instructors. 

What was the most challenging part of your learning experience?

I feel you get exponentially more out of the course I did, if you put in more than the required minimum. So it’s not a negative, but it’s important to be self-driven to get the most out of these courses/even after the course finishes.
