Free Balsamiq Mockups for UX Training

We believe life is too short for bad software. That's why we created Mockups in the first place! :)

Are you also trying to rid the world of poor usability? We'd love to help you if we can.

Are you a thought leader (teacher, speaker, author, guru, etc.) who trains other professionals about usability, UI, UX, IA or web design?

Are you running a session, workshop, seminar or webinar at a conference or camp where attendees could benefit from hands-on wireframing experience?

If so, we'd like to provide you with a free version of Balsamiq Mockups for you and your students to use for the duration of your workshop/session (plus a few days before and after). This could be used for in-class exercises or simply as an example of wireframing tools that your students might look at.

This version of Mockups is basically our online demo but without the 5-minute nagging dialog and is password protected. All you have to do is share a URL and username/password and they'll be able to jump in and start wireframing. Nothing to install, all your students need is an Internet connection and a browser with the Flash Player on it.

If you'd like to take us up on this offer, please send us an email at uxtraining@balsamiq.com. Please include:

• your name
• the name, date and URL (if possible) of the training session
• what username/password you'd like to use
• if you'd like to have us try to help advertise your session somehow. We could tweet, blog about it or post a link on this page as well
• any other relevant information you'd like to share

Events should be targeted at professional designers and developers, or others in the industry. Sorry, college courses do not qualify. See our academic discount info here instead.

We know this sounds like a clever marketing trick for us to spread the word about our tool, but believe us when we say that even if we don't make a dime out of this, it won't matter to us. What matters is helping people build better software that makes people happy instead of frustrating them.

By teaching people about usability, you're doing something we really admire. We'd love to help you if we can, that's all.
