Mento Design Academy and The Fearless Group have teamed up to make the design world a better place. We’re happy to launch the giveaway of a UX & UI Bootcamp scholarship within Mento Design Academy AND a 3 month paid internship at **Fierce** for one aspiring UX Designer that comes from an underprivileged background and can’t normally afford the UX educational costs.

We’re welcoming applications from anyone who:

• Is 18+
• Ideally has a computer + a stable internet connection to join the weekly video mentorship sessions

  • Your current background
