Level Up is a guided mentorship program where you’ll learn more about the design world after you complete your first case study! We are asking for an application form just because we want to make sure we have committed individuals who will make sure to attend the lectures - but we plan to admit most people who apply!
Interested in helping out and giving advice? Apply to be a mentor here [https://forms.gle/fokvF3EEfKdBfqw5A]. Mentors aren’t required to attend the first 15 minutes of lecture and don’t have to make the lecture slides.
