QD Monthly #39 | UX Bootcamp Announcement
This month we're embracing reflection and focusing on what’s next for QD.
Hello everyone, and welcome back to The QD Monthly, QTBIPOC Design's newsletter that aims to provide you with monthly updates on our community along with some tools, resources, inspiration, and more to take with you wherever you are in your design journey.
This month, we're reflecting on our much-needed July rest period, which has allowed us to recharge and plan for the months ahead. We are also looking back at some of the fun experiences we got to have this summer. At Figma Config 2024, we had new and old members come together and it was a great chance to chat about how to continue elevating our communities and our work.
UX Bootcamp Announcement
We're excited to announce that our UX Bootcamp cohort has been confirmed, marking a significant step in our commitment to empowering QTBIPOC designers. These 20 students will be starting the program this fall, gaining hands-on experience and connecting with industry leaders.
