What's inside

Eight things every enrolled student uses, every week

Studio

Live Sessions

Join live classes with mentors and cohort — one click from the portal, no separate meeting links to hunt for. Recordings appear automatically the same day.

Practice

Assignments & Briefs

Every module ships with structured briefs, upload space for your work, mentor comments in-line, and version history — so you see how your craft has actually grown.

Feedback

Written Critiques

Beyond the verbal live-session review, every submission earns a written critique against the same rubric your ADS Certified exam will use. Kind, specific, evidence-based.

Library

Downloadable Resources

Every template, every research script, every Figma starter file used in your programme — organised by module, accessible even after graduation.

Community

Cohort Space

A private channel with your cohort and mentors — for peer critique between studios, project help, and the informal learning that actually compounds.

Progress

Progress Dashboard

See your module completion, upcoming deadlines, jury readiness score, portfolio pieces submitted — one honest view of where you are.

Credential

Certificates & Badges

Once earned: download the PDF certificate, share the verification link on LinkedIn, claim your Credly badge. All from one tab.

Career

Placement Support

Portfolio reviews, resume & LinkedIn coaching, mock interviews, salary negotiation coaching, hiring-partner referrals — every asset in one place.

The learning flow

From enrolment to hired — step by step

Every course follows the same rhythm, so nothing about the format ever surprises you.

Enrol & get access

Welcome email with portal login arrives within 30 minutes. First day: complete your onboarding, meet your mentor, join your cohort channel.

Learn live, practise deep

Live studio sessions (weekends or evenings) + structured practice on your own schedule. Recordings for revision, not replacement.

Ship, submit, iterate

Real project work with real research participants, submitted through the portal, critiqued in writing, iterated week-on-week.

Defend before a jury

Your final portfolio is defended live before external practitioners — the credential is earned here, not by attendance.

Graduate & get placed

Certificate + Credly badge issued in the portal; placement support kicks in with your first review and continues until you're placed.

Access, honestly

What you keep after graduation

Six months

Full portal access continues

Rewatch recordings, revisit resources, keep polishing case studies, and use career services actively for six months after your course ends — the actual window when most placements happen.

Forever

Certificate, badge & verification

Your PDF certificate, Credly digital badge and the public verification page at agiledesignschool.com/verify are permanent — every future employer can confirm your credential in seconds, indefinitely.

Alumni

Community continues

Alumni channels, jobs board, quarterly meetups, and access to future workshops at graduate rates. Not a lifetime video library — a lifetime professional network.

Career

Referral network stays open

Graduates return as mentors, jurors and referrers — and every current student benefits from the network that came before. Being placed doesn't remove you from the network; it upgrades your role in it.

The pledge

If the portal is broken, the school is broken.

The learning happens in live studios, but a poor portal ruins good teaching. So we treat portal quality like course quality: monitored uptime, real humans answering support tickets within one business day, and a running changelog visible to enrolled students. If it slips, we hear about it in the next cohort review — and fix it.

Portal FAQ

What new students always ask

Do I need to create a separate account?
No. When you enrol, you receive one welcome email with a magic link to the portal. Set your password once, and the same email logs you into every future course, workshop and certification you take with us.
Which device works best?
Live studios run best on a laptop or desktop with a stable webcam and microphone. Recordings, notes, discussions and resources work fine on mobile — but critique participation needs the bigger screen.
What happens after I finish a course?
Portal access continues for 6 months after your course ends, so you can revisit recordings, download templates, keep working on your portfolio and use career resources. Alumni events, certificate downloads, and Credly badges stay accessible permanently.
Can I get help inside the portal?
Yes. The Help & Support panel routes to your programme lead for course questions, and to studio ops for anything technical. Real replies from real humans — typically within one business day.
Is the certificate verifiable from inside the portal?
Yes. Once earned, your certificate carries a unique ID and a QR code that anyone (recruiter, HR, LinkedIn viewer) can verify at agiledesignschool.com/verify — instantly, without contacting us.
What's the difference between the website and the portal?
The website is public — courses, fees, blog, credentials. The portal is your enrolled space — live sessions, assignments, feedback, community. You do not need a portal account to browse the site; you get one automatically when you enrol.
