Learn one of UX design’s most fundamental skill sets: how to organise the information in a digital product or service so that it makes sense to real people. This course takes you through a human-centred design approach to making digital content findable and understandable.

How does it work?

This is an experiential course. You learn by doing. Our teaching methodology is built on giving you three building blocks for everything we cover:

1. Principles

You get the foundational theory behind the methods you learn – why we work the way we do. This is to give you a basis for further study or self-development and helps you judge how appropriate any method is for a given challenge, enabling you to alter a method as required or to develop your own methods as needed.

2. Methods

You get common design methods that make up a typical human-centred design process. These are practical ways of working that you can take away and start applying immediately.

3. Practice

You apply the principles and methods you learn on a project. This practical component is essential in making sure you can apply what you learn in the course to real life human behaviour and design problems.
