Take one of our design courses. Spend just 3 hours per day learn to design your mobile app or landing page using Photoshop.
Each self-paced course teaches you to design a final product in 7 days.
Here is a high-level step by step explanation of how DesignBoost works.
Purchase a course to learn a specific skill set or a 12-month membership that allows you access to all DesignBoost courses.
View HD video training and complete assignments for each lesson that teach you to design your app or website – step by step.
Customize the pre-designed, quick start Photoshop templates that are included in every course. Beginner-level Photoshop skills required.
Launch your product! By the end of every DesignBoost course, you will have a finished design for your app, landing page or website.
You can waste a lot of time tracking down design templates and video tutorials scattered around the web. DesignBoost provides not only pixel-perfect design templates, but also valuable training on how to use the templates and create the look you want for your website or application.
Every course includes pre-designed, pixel-perfect Photoshop templates that jump-start the design process for your app, landing page or website. They are designed to ensure a quality layout and final product design.
The only way to guarantee you leave each course with a finished product in hand by giving you the right tools. Every course includes lesson assignments that require students to apply what they’ve learned directly to their design.
The design templates and worksheets provide the means for creating your design, and the video training teaches students how to manipulate the templates and gain a better understanding of design fundamentals.
Taking DesignBoost courses not only gives you a final product design at the end of each course, it saves you the expense of hiring a pro or taking classes at a design school.

All you need to take DesignBoost courses is beginner-level Photoshop skills. DesignBoost’s learn-by-doing teaching philosophy enables students to quickly acquire and refine Photoshop skills. DesignBoost founder Jen Gordon observes that “by teaching students how to design real products, they are able to laser focus on their website or app idea. Learning Photoshop becomes a by-product of this process.” Look at some of the cool products DesignBoost students have created:
Cara Oba, designer
“Our early prototypes of Treed used the DesignBoost icons heavily. Also, we continue to use the PSD mockup tools to flush out new ideas and designs. Currently, we’re using the “How to Make Your First iPhone App” PDF to hone our marketing, as well as plan our next app.”
Eric Prive, entrepreneur
“DesignBoost made me even more aware that design in apps is crucial. Too many medical apps have a lousy design and with the high quality training and insights we got from DesignBoost we created our iP Voiding Diary.”
Tac Leung, developer
“I have designed, product managed and launched over 10 apps for clients using your design templates. I particulalry like how you give well executed ideas of how to skin applications so they look different than the standard iOS interface while retaining a sense of polish and sophistication.”

DesignBoost training promises that at the end of each course, you leave with a finished design in hand. Here’s what else you can expect:
