Accelerator Overview

The Craft's Product Design Accelerator is designed to help ambitious professionals supercharge their careers in design, land their next job, or start their own ventures. Unlike other bootcamps and programs, this course is created by Product Design experts.

The accelerator combines a 6 to 8 month industry-oriented education program and apprenticeship with a real company. Students will begin the apprenticeship 2-4 months in depending on their progress in the course.

You'll also have ongoing community membership throughout the year. This means you can access our monthly workshop events, expert guest speaker sessions, career support, and a supportive network of highly talented peers.

I have learned so much in the past few months. Going through the videos and readings from the course got me so interested which made me want to dive deeper. The material is great and having Jeremy as my mentor has been amazing. I didn't know what to expect, and I don't know how other bootcamps are, but the videos that Sera has set up are really good. I am almost done with my first case study and I honestly couldn't have done this kind of work without this bootcamp.

The Craft's bootcamp has been instrumental in propelling my growth as a designer. I firmly believe that no other program could have provided me with the level of knowledge and support that I've experienced here.

Lucia

As someone transitioning from an architecture background, this program provides a great bridge to make the leap into product design. The journey has been transformative. The curriculum is well-structured and tailored to individuals like me who were new to the world of product design. I appreciate how it focuses 100% on entering the tech industry, always providing with the most updated tools and systems. As I near the end of this bootcamp I am beyond excited to start working as a Product Designer.
