Figma AI: Productivity Tools for Designers

In this course, you will learn how to use AI tools in Figma intentionally and responsibly within real design workflows. You will understand where AI features live in Figma, what problems they are designed to solve, and how to evaluate their output critically instead of accepting it by default. You will develop practical skills in prompting, refinement, and decision-making, learning how to guide AI clearly while retaining ownership of design outcomes. The course focuses on AI as a support system for designers and marketers, not as an automated replacement for judgment or creativity. You will explore core AI features across layout generation, content assistance, visual refinement, presentations, and collaboration, and learn how these tools behave in real files. You will also examine professional considerations, including ethics, safety, bias, and responsibility, which become increasingly important as AI becomes part of everyday design work. What makes this course unique is its emphasis on evaluation and judgment rather than feature memorization. Instead of teaching shortcuts or projects, the course helps you build a long-term mindset for working with AI thoughtfully. By the end, you will be better equipped to decide when AI adds value, when it does not, and how to stay in control as tools continue to evolve
