About the UX Writing Hub
Founded in 2018 by Yuval Keshtcher, the UX Writing Hub created the first online education platform to train UX writers.

If you’re serious about transitioning into the field of UX writing, this program is a must for you.
The course was co-authored by our chief editor, Aaron Raizen, who combines linguistic knowledge and instructional design expertise to bring you engaging educational content that is easy to grasp.
Student success stories
"Joining the UXWA best decision I’ve ever made in my professional life. I learned so much in the boot camp and gained confidence in my skills from my assigned mentor’s feedback and advice. He helped me prepare for a job interview and build my portfolio…and I got my first UX writing job while still enrolled in the course! Without any experience in the industry! I’m officially a UX writer for PwC, all thanks to UX Writing Hub and their amazing team of educators and staff.“
Hannah Lockwood UX Writer at PwC
“The UX Writing Academy helped me completely change careers and become a full-time UX writer. The information was incredibly thorough and I learned so much about the entire UX writing process. The community is supportive, my mentor was so helpful, and the real-world experience you get with the capstone project and real-industry project is unmatched. Those experiences were so valuable. I can’t thank this program enough!”
“The UXWA didn’t just train me in UX writing, it also helped me gain the confidence I needed to apply for jobs in UX with major companies. I love my job, but I would never have applied if it wasn’t for the Academy!”
“The UX Writing Academy was just what I needed to make the transition from content writer to content designer. The easy-to-read materials, hands-on exercises, and supportive mentorship gave me the real-world knowledge to land an awesome new job before even completing the program. I am so glad I found this program and made the investment—it was 100% worth it.”
“I’m so glad that I chose the UX Writing Academy.
One of my biggest priorities when looking at UX writing courses was 'pick the one that’s going to help me land a job.' By the end of the course, I’d gained a strong portfolio thanks to the course projects and mentorship, and I’d developed everything I needed to shape my UX writing career.”
“I’ve done a lot of online courses, many from notable schools. UX Writing Hub’s course is better than them all, on many fronts: quality content, practical projects, student interaction, and access to instructors. 👌👌👌”
“When I made the risky decision to shift my career from law to tech, I knew I needed to find a course that did more than just teach the basics. I needed to learn the type of practical skills and design thinking that would get me noticed by an employer—and that’s exactly what I got. Thanks to UXWA’s excellent teaching and support, I developed a strong portfolio and landed my first UX writing job at a tech unicorn within a month of finishing the course."
“I’m so grateful for the UX Writing Hub. This certification attracted me because of the reasonable price, direct mentorship, writing-specific course content, and solid reputation. It lived up to all my expectations and helped me fall in love with this industry. Six months after completing the certification, I landed an awesome full-time job at SimplePractice as a content designer. Thank you for your guidance and support not only during the course, but after through my job search. A must for aspiring product writers!”
