Hi Eva, the best way is to start consuming free content on UX design that is available online from tutorials to webinars and books. Once you get a taste of what skills the role requires and if you're still aligned with transitioning into design it would be a good idea to start investing into different education programs available for UX. Depending on your time and budget there are a lot of options available, such as UX bootcamps, UX certification and full on design degrees. If you are on a tight budget joining online learning platforms that charge a low monthly fee is a great place to start. Those programs usually help you build a portfolio that you will need to get hired in the design field. They may even help you land your first design job. Another way to practice your skills would be to join design hackathons and challenges. The key is to never stop learning and continue evolving your design skills so that you can build a solid design career going forward. Good luck as you're about to enter on a very exciting journey!
