We want to solve this problem.
With the new introduction of the UX industry into Vietnam and the ever-evolving UX development globally, young Vietnamese people can face numerous challenges and struggles when it comes to finding the right direction in UX careers.
With the hope of creating a playground among people in the UX field and building a sustainable and educational UX community, we would like to introduce UXMP – the first UX Mentorship Program ever in Vietnam where people are interested in becoming a real UX practitioner and can all learn from and grow with each other.
The program will invite experienced mentors in Vietnam and globally, coming from various fields, to come up with a plethora of foundations. This will help build a more panoramic view of what UX can bring to the table.
The program lasts for 12 weeks. Each Mentor will guide 2 Mentees to complete a challenge, thereby helping them to answer 3 big questions:
Mentees need to reflect upon their identities as a person, to think deeply about their needs, desires, and goals, which can help their interpersonal and professional development.
Mentees will know what is happening in the UX industry in Vietnam and in the world. When they know where they are, they will realize the "best path" for themselves.
Mentees might know where they want to go next, but can be lost on their journey without clear guidances and instructions. This is where UXMP can help.
