User Experience (UX) Basics Workshop (online)

Learn about the importance of preliminary research, testing during the process of developing a design, and how to test and analyze existing designs. Explore user experience (UX) roles and the artifacts they contribute during the user-centric digital design phase(s) such as wire framing, paper and clickable prototyping, card sorts and other testing methodologies.

Discover how UX can be utilized in a variety of settings and have a better understanding of how UX is used in product development. This course is for those exploring new career opportunities, those interested in learning what user experience is all about, and/or those that are wondering whether MCAD’s User Experience (UX) Design Professional Development Certificate is right for them.

Please note that this is not a lab-based class. This class is not a prerequisite to MCAD’s User Experience (UX) Design Certificate.
