Figma Summer Camp with Miggi [Cohort 2]
Join us August 31st through September 3rd for the second cohort of Figma Summer Camp, a virtual program designed for students and educators who want to go deeper with Figma.
What to expect
Over the span of four days, you'll build a series of small, hands-on projects that strengthen different design skills across Figma's product suite. Each day spotlights different skills and various tools, so you'll leave with real work in hand and the confidence to keep creating long after the week wraps. You’ll get the chance to ask questions directly to Figma's Designer Advocate Miguel 'Miggi' Cardona.
What you'll walk away with
Students will walk away with work to turn into strong case studies and portfolio pieces for recruitment. Educators will gain new skills and fresh ideas to bring straight into the classroom, along with a firsthand look at what's newly possible in Figma.
A cohort experience
This is designed as a cohort experience, so you'll be learning alongside a group of fellow students and educators, working in shared files, sharing your progress, and connecting with one another throughout the week.
To support that, we'll be creating a dedicated Slack group for communication and community. We're also limiting the series to roughly 100 students and 50 educators so we can best support everyone taking part.
This cohort will consist of daily afternoon sessions: 4:00–5:30pm ET
