Can complete beginners join and what laptop do I need?

No prior design experience is required. A laptop and the willingness to practice, iterate, and accept feedback matters much more than having a polished design background.

Which tools and frameworks do I actually use during training?

You work with Figma for UI/UX, design systems, prototyping and Dev Mode handoff, Adobe Illustrator for vector and brand work, and Adobe Photoshop for image editing and campaign assets. AI tools are part of the real workflow: Figma AI / First Draft for first-pass layouts, Adobe Firefly Generative Fill, Midjourney V8 for mood-boards, Canva AI for fast drafts and Adobe Sensei, always drafted then finished by hand. Maze handles remote usability testing and you publish a live portfolio site in Framer or Webflow.

How much does the Graphic Design & UI/UX course cost and how long is it?

The current fee is NPR 26,000 for the full 10-week program. Classes run Monday to Friday for 2 hours of live session per day, giving you 100 guided hours plus another 2 hours of expected daily self-study (design drills, moodboards, case-study writing). On the fifth day of each week the last 1 hour of the live session is a built-in revision and critique-clinic block for consolidation and doubt-clearing.

What portfolio and career outcomes does this course support?

You leave with portfolio pieces that can include brand systems, campaign assets, UI screens, prototypes, and case-study style presentation work.

01Why This Course?

Why This Course?

Graphic Design and UI/UX training in Nepal is increasingly valuable because businesses no longer need visuals alone. They need brand systems, campaign assets, landing pages, app screens, and product interfaces that look strong and feel easy to use.

That creates a practical opportunity for learners who want both creative and digital product skill. Many local employers and freelance clients prefer designers who can work across visual identity and interface design instead of staying locked in one narrow tool skill.

Saarathi Academy's current 10-week Graphic Design & UI/UX program is built to support that kind of hybrid readiness. It starts with visual foundations, Illustrator, Photoshop, layout, and brand thinking, then moves into UX research, wireframes, Figma UI design, prototyping, and portfolio presentation.

Why Graphic Design and UI/UX Training in Kathmandu Makes Sense

Kathmandu continues to grow as a startup, agency, and digital-product center, which increases demand for designers who can work on both marketing visuals and product-facing interfaces.
Freelance and remote design work remain attractive because portfolio strength can travel well beyond one local geography.
Companies increasingly want user-friendly interfaces, stronger brand consistency, and designers who can explain decisions rather than only decorate screens.
This path fits learners who want a blend of creativity, technology, product thinking, and practical communication skill.

What You Learn in Saarathi's 10-Week Design Program

The course is designed to help you build design judgment before relying too heavily on tools. That means hierarchy, typography, color, spacing, layout, and composition matter from the start. Once that base is in place, the tool training becomes much more useful.

From there, the program moves into Illustrator and Photoshop workflows, brand identity systems, UX research, wireframing, Figma UI design, prototyping, and design-system habits that support real collaboration with developers and teams.

Visual design fundamentals such as typography, color systems, composition, hierarchy, and layout discipline.
Adobe Illustrator for logos, brand elements, vector graphics, and identity-related design work.
Adobe Photoshop for campaign assets, image editing, compositing, and digital creative output.
UX research, user flows, wireframes, and information architecture for more thoughtful interface design.
Figma for high-fidelity UI design, responsive layouts, components, design systems, prototypes, and handoff readiness.

Why Saarathi Academy for Graphic Design & UI/UX Training in Nepal

The course is project-based and portfolio-oriented, which matters because design hiring depends heavily on what you can show, not what you claim to know.
Small-batch delivery gives more room for critique, revision, and design feedback that improves actual visual judgment.
The curriculum combines brand design and product design in one path, which reflects how many real jobs and freelance projects are structured.
Career support helps you package work into stronger case studies, portfolio pieces, and application material for local or remote opportunities.

Career Outcomes and What Comes Next

This course supports outcomes such as Junior Graphic Designer, UI Designer, UI/UX Designer, Product Designer, Brand Designer, and freelance design work. The real value is that you leave with stronger cross-functional design ability instead of depending on only one software skill.

After the course, you are better positioned to pursue internships, junior design roles, agency work, product design specialization, or freelance client work with a more credible and structured portfolio.
