Imani’s Story: Left Banking to Become a UI Designer

I worked in the banking industry for 15 years, but 10 years ago, I went on maternity leave and was there for a while. Now, I have three children. I started thinking about part-time and remote work.

I read about the Sigma Academy on the Internet but never paid much attention. Then my friend said she’d started studying there, so I also applied. I chose the «UI Designer» course because it was different from what I knew and used to do.

We studied for two months only; the education was intense. I successfully completed the final project and started looking for a job. For some time, I worked for free to get experience. However, six months later, I got a job offer from a web design agency located in Germany.

I wish future students to choose an interesting specialty and find practical application for their knowledge.

Makena’s Story: I’m Working as a Software Tester from Home

I used to work in trade, but I’ve been on maternity leave for two years now. I found out about the Sigma Academy on the Internet. Initially, I wanted to take the course organized by a university, but it was too costly, so I looked into other options and the Academy came to mind.

I went to the «Software Tester» course. It’s a high-demand profession, which gives the opportunity to work from home. I liked the training, everything was clear. The instructor answered all my questions. The advantage was that you can watch lessons in the recording. After a while, I found a job in my new profession.

I wish future participants success in learning. Don’t get discouraged if something doesn’t work right away, like finding a job, and don’t compare your beginning to someone else’s peak.

Omari’s Story: Closed My Business and Plunged into Data Analysis

I had to close my business and started looking for a remote job. I came across the Sigma Academy on the Internet and took the «Data Analyst» course, because I heard many positive reviews about the work in IT.

At first, I didn’t think it was what I wanted. But I finished the course, I liked it, and I got an internship. The internship was great! When it ended, I was offered a job at the company.

I wish everyone persistence and perseverance. Don’t be afraid, with such instructors you’ll succeed! Keep learning, it’s an excellent opportunity to change your life.

Nia’s Story: From Lawyer to Graphic Designer. I Devote Time to My Family & Live Off 5/2 Schedule

I decided to start training while I was on maternity leave. Before that, I worked as a lawyer in a government agency. The job was OK, but I wanted more, especially in terms of salary. During maternity leave, I took a great interest in design. I took part in free marathons and a couple of paid courses, cooperated with a blogger, and created visuals for her social media. I wanted to study this subject more deeply, so I signed up for the «Graphic Designer» course at the Sigma Academy.

By the end of the course, I already had two clients. Two months later, I came back to my job, and applied for the position in the project channel — an online yoga school was looking for a graphic designer. I was invited to an internship and then hired. I’m still working there. When the level was equal to the salary at my main place of work, I quit my job. I want to devote time to my child and live off the 5/2 schedule.

I wish everyone to take advantage of this opportunity to get a new profession and choose a specialty that you like!
