Is taking the Google UX design course a good idea in 2025? Is it still relevant and is it worth the time and money?

Even though I finished the course in 2021, when it launched, and made a complete set of reviews of it on YouTube, I still get asked these questions a lot.

The answer isn’t easy.

It all depends on your approach to learning design, your goals and whether you can wait to get the first job. But don’t worry. I’m here to guide you through the best possible approach to learning UX in 2025. And yes, it does include the Google UX Course in it.

It is still worth doing but only if you’re prepared for the right approach. It’s all about what to focus on, what to avoid and skip and what kind of expectations should you start the course with.

That correct approach here is really important. Otherwise you may be in for an unpleasant surprise.
