Overview

“UX Research Methods” is designed for roles such as Web developers, designers and UX teams and Editors, content owners and document authors. In 6 hours you work your way through Qualitative and quantitative methods, Conducting user interviews and Surveys and questionnaires in a structured way – with plenty of practice and time for your questions.

Digital services must be accessible, understandable and pleasant to use for everyone, not only for legal reasons but because it makes them better. The UX Research Methods training combines accessibility and user experience in practice: you learn requirements and methods, try testing tools and assistive technologies yourself and apply what you learn to websites, apps or documents. We work with concrete examples, checklists and patterns you can use in projects right away. Each course lasts one day and runs online or on site.

The course is delivered live – either online in a virtual classroom or on-site in our training rooms in Munich, Salzburg, Berlin, Augsburg, Hanover, Bremen, Stuttgart and Kaiserslautern. We can also run it exclusively for your team.
