Closing the design skills gap

The gap between what teams hire for and what learners can access keeps widening. Quillbrook Give hands immediate, structured design learning to the people furthest from it.

Affordable

Quality craft education shouldn’t cost a month’s rent — qualifying organizations get their learners in for free.

Concise

We distil and curate every lesson, so a concept lands in minutes instead of afternoons.

Inclusive

Built for anyone, whatever their role or level, who wants sharper design judgement.

Flexible

Learn any time, anywhere, on any device — even in the 6 minutes before a stand-up.

Engaging

Streaks, practice sets and short reviews turn learning into a habit that actually holds.

Comprehensive

Beyond lessons: portfolio reviews, assessments and hiring tools to move a career forward.

An all-in-one service for user-experience professionals and for people just starting. Training, practice, then certifying what you know — all in one place. The profile pages double as a UX-focused CV, and studios genuinely browse them looking for their next hire.

The most fun I’ve had with learning in years. It’s well designed and it keeps getting better — good information in small bites, easy to understand, remember and carry into everyday work.

The best online learning platform, full stop.

Traditional e-learning is tedious and padded with redundant information. This is fun, direct and packed with more benefits than I could list here.

It makes design genuinely easy to learn in chunks, on a daily basis, and the content itself is extremely useful. I’ve learned a great deal already — well-invested money and time.

I’ve been on the platform for over a year now and it is still one of the best ways to learn design. We learn in a fun, smooth way.

So glad to share my latest achievements from the app with you all.

Honestly, it is the most enjoyable way I’ve found to study and practise interface work.

Hands down the most comprehensive source for interface design I have found. It excels at breaking down complex topics and giving clear, robust explanations — ideal for beginners who find free reading online overwhelming.

A great study platform, a lot of fun, and it is still possible to test your knowledge across different categories.

Wonderful learning platform. The courses are structured well and the information is explained and condensed properly — you don’t need to spend hours untangling a topic. Good job.

Portrait by Ben Khatry on Pexels Isaach González ElizarrarásLead Product Designer

It made learning design genuinely easy. There are a number of valuable, practical tips that help designers pick up crucial ideas in the most addictive way. Great job, team.

For anyone interested in interface design, this is a very enjoyable interface with bite-size chunks of useful information. If you like learning on the go, it works great on mobile too.

Loving this right now. It is exactly what I was looking for to sharpen my skills — wanted something that was like a quiz but like a game too, making it more fun to learn. Besides that, the interface is beautiful as well.

Frequently asked questions

Why Quillbrook?

We teach the craft the way it is practised — short structured lessons, real critique, and assessments that map to how design teams actually hire. Over 217,000 designers use the platform in 74 countries.

How does Quillbrook Give benefit my organization?

Approved partners receive a year of Quillbrook Teams for every member, plus an admin dashboard for cohorts, progress and certification records — at no cost and with no card on file.

What types of organizations are eligible?

Registered non-profits, community bootcamps, public libraries, refugee and re-employment programmes, and university design societies. If your work puts people into design roles, apply.

I belong to an organization that could benefit. What should I do?

Send the application form to whoever runs your programme, or submit it yourself with their contact details. Review takes about 9 working days, and we write back either way.

Who decides who gets a subscription, and how?

Your programme leads do. Once a partnership is approved, they invite members from the dashboard and can reassign a seat whenever a cohort turns over.

What does Quillbrook get in return?

A better field. We ask only that partners share anonymous completion data once a term, so we can keep improving the curriculum for the learners who need it most.
