About Learning Hackathons
We believe that the best way to learn is through application of thought to real-world problems. Learning Hackathons (LH) will give you the opportunity to do exactly this.
Participants will be given a real world problem faced by a large consumer brand, to solve, each week. You will have a week to come up with solutions. Along the way you will also get one on one feedback on improvement. In all you will be able to work on 4 challenges, a new one each week, for a month. Ideal for Product Managers, UX Designers or anyone who is looking to make a career in these fields.

UX hackathon is a unique concept. Interesting problems, weekly deliverables, peer learning and insightful feedback, it’s faster way to become a better UX designer.
I’m used to giving feedback in my organisation, but I’ve not seen better feedback given like this before. It was very constructive. It really helped and also taught me how to give good feedback
