This one day course offers an introduction to usability, providing delegates with an overview of what usability is and what it actually means in the real world. This course will offer you the chance to develop a strong understanding of usability and the huge benefits of applying usability principles and practices to your website.
Course outline
Usability plays a key role in ensuring your users are able to fulfill their online goals. At Nomensa we realise that when people have good experiences online, they soon repeat their journeys, but more importantly, happy users share their experiences with others. To enable you to understand how to put your users experience at the heart of your website, Nomensa's interactive training session will take you through:
- What usability is;
- Why usability is important?
- What is the return on investment from usability?
- Learn the lingo! What are the key terms?
- Usability preparation and strategy;
- Common usability evaluation methods;
- Turning test results into an actionable strategy;
- Your usability strategy.
We feel confident that upon completion of the course, you will be able to pinpoint areas where you can begin to implement usability practice in-house, and have the confidence to knowledgeably engage with others in the usability field.
