Masterclass in User-Centred Design

Instrata is offering a 1-day intensive workshop on user-centred design. You will receive a basic grounding in a variety of techniques such as ethnography, lead users, personas, scenarios, prototyping and evaluation.

You will learn when to use the techniques and what their benefits are. Most importantly, you will learn to apply the techniques through a series of exercises to the product or service you bring to the workshop. This could be a software application, or a mobile or web application, or a physical product.

The workshop is aimed at those of you that have taken on a usability or interaction design role within your organisation and wish to learn more.
