GrowthX Academy offers online training courses for individuals who want to level up or transition into a career in Growth Marketing, UX Design, or Sales and Business Development. The Growth Marketing Customer Acquisitions course is a self-paced, online, 8-week course covering customer acquisition, discovery techniques, analytics, technology self-sufficiency, and more. The UX Design course is a self-paced, online, 12-16-week course covering UX foundations, design research, design structure, and UI design. The Sales and Business Development course is self-paced, online, and covers business acumen, lean startups, unit economics, customer psychology, sales models, and more. Classes are taught by entrepreneurs, founders, business owners and investors who teach useful skills, mindsets, and frameworks for today’s competitive environment. GrowthX Academy students learn from a dynamic curriculum which they get lifetime access to.

To apply for GrowthX courses, applicants should talk to an enrollment advisor, audit a class (optional), and talk with an instructor. Once the team has assessed if the applicant is a good fit, the applicant will then fill out an enrollment agreement. No previous experience is needed, but GrowthX is looking for committed students who are enthusiastic about technology, but not necessarily to code.

Graduates receive personal and professional branding, and hands-on experience working alongside real companies like Alma Box, Cleanify, and Loverly. Students also benefit from immersion into the network of student peers, instructors, mentors, events, startups and investors. Throughout the course, students work with mentors and a career coach through the GrowthX Academy Career Canvas Funnel™, which helps match students with jobs that fit their goals. If students are unsatisfied with the course after 30 days, they can get a full refund.

    Unconventional and unmatched in quality

    I've taken countless Udemy courses, read all the blogs, watched all the videos, and been in the industry as a marketer for over 2 years now. Nothing matches the level of depth and quality that's offered in this course. Ryan does an excellent job of showing real-world examples, defining terms, and giving clear instructions for how something should be done. This is like a PhD in growth marketing and is well worth it for everyone. It covers everything: concepts, strategies, tactics, and even ...

    Growth by Design

    Having explored online and in-person programs, I chose GrowthX Academy to start my transition from real estate to UX Design; it is one of the best decisions I have ever made. Having no formal exposure to design prior to the course, I graduated with the experience, knowledge, and tools that will empower me throughout my career.

    A course is only as good as the instructor teaching it – and Julia DeBari raises the benchmark for what makes a great educator. Her tireless dedication to ...

    UX Design

    Joining the UX Design track at GrowthX Academy was the best decision I've ever made for my personal and professional growth. After considering other programs, I chose GrowthX after sitting in on a class and experiencing first hand what they could offer me. From day one, I could tell the entire team at GrowthX genuinely wanted to see every student succeed and was happy help at every step of the way.

    Learn from the best.

    GrowthX Academy gave me deep knowledge on how to sell products that people want and how to scale a business. Not only did we learn valuable sales skills for selling to enterprises, the information that I learned have give me confidence in a changing startup environment. Everything I learned was instantly applicable and practical. 

    I happen to believe that in order to become successful one needs to learn from those who've already achieved it.

    Growth Marketing

    I was accepted into multiple different boot camps which I then toured//observed classes.  I choose GX Academy because I felt I entered a family vs a business trying to churn money, which has stayed true even after my completion of the program.  During my course work at GX Academy, I was supported in all ways possible even when I completed the Growth Marketing program and wanted to obtain a job doing customer success.  The continuous support was very helpful considering I just had made a cr...

    Take control of your career!

    I'm a fresh graduate from Manila that recently moved to the Bay Area. Coming here, I knew I wanted to work in the tech industry. I had a dream but I didn't have a concrete strategy to achieve it. And so, I took the step towards enrolling in GrowthX Academy. It was single-handedly the best decision I made then because now I'm living my dream. 

    Prior to joining GrowthX, I was exposed to the possibility of joining other bootcamps. During the process of choosing, I had encounters wit...

    Sales & BD Grad

    GrowthX Academy is the total package. They provided me with great curated content in the course plan, access to an amazing network of tech sales mentors, hands-on experience working in a real startup, and assisted me with getting a job. In fact, I already had two job offers before I finished (and I hadn’t even applied anywhere yet!). These opportunities came from connections I made in the program.

    Director of Insides Sales

    Had the  pleasure of hiring a GrowthX student from their very first academy class. The student came on as an intern during her program with GrowthX academy,  but before her completion of the internship, I knew I had to give her an offer! It was refreshing to hire and work with a smart individual who had a good baseline knowledge of sales techniques, different sales tools and an overall understanding of sales and marketing processes. If you are a sales director/manager, you know how d...

    Take a chance on you.

    I joined GrowthX Academy for one reason AND emerged from it with a zillion reasons why you should join. If you find yourself where I was three months ago — looking to break into tech with no coding skills, interested in the sales and marketing side of businesses, but having difficulty getting noticed with no hiring potential — seriously, look no further and join already. 

    GrowthX Academy is, by all means, hands down and up, the place to be.

    Nothing beats experience

    I treated my course at Growth X as oine might treat an MBA -- You know that the material might be online. But the mateiral is not nearly as important as the mentorship you receive from long term industry veterans through a structured learning process, not to mention the opportunity to work for real-world clients through your study. Julia, as the UX instructor, has been a fantastic teacher and resource, and has become a friend rather than just a contact. You won't find many people more gene...

    Great opportunity

    I think you can find content online to purchase in many ways but doing it in such a structured way how GrowthX does provides a load of added values. What I like the most is the people within GrowthX community and the way how the curriculum is set. I developed a lot.

    Dir. Of Business Development, AppZocial

    I came to GrowthX through a chance meeting on a Thursday, pulled the trigger and started classes on Monday. It was a bit overwhelming and very intense to do since I was also in a full-time role at AppZocial.

    However, the time, resources and energy have been worth it. The best part is the emphasis on personal as well as professional development. It forces you to confront who you are and how you work- not only in your career but in your life.
