This course provides the essential knowledge to transition from being a classical usability engineer to become a complete user experience designer.
It is no longer enough to design just for efficiency - now user experience experts must also design for engagement.

Progressive testing of Web sites and software applications is a critical component of creating a user-centered design. This seminar provides practical techniques to help move the web and application design into compliance with the user’s needs, limitations, mental models and cognitive styles. Rich functionality is worth little if the user can’t access it. This seminar provides usability practitioners with quick and practical tools to accurately predict how users will experience their applications.

Successful user interface design is both a science and an art. Learn to optimize both user performance and visual appeal. This course draws on thousands of research studies on user behavior – and on modern principles of visual design. You will learn how to design for your target users, create navigation structures that make sense, and avoid common design pitfalls. Experience design challenges with real world examples. Experts in the field of interface ergonomics offer a comprehensive approach to creating highly effective Web sites, Intranets, and Web and Windows™ applications.
