UXW
Duration
2 Days

Good usability and a positive user experience (UX) determine the success of your products. If the product development does not meet the needs of your users, sooner or later they will be dissatisfied. This dissatisfaction results in competitive disadvantages for your company. Outstanding software products can only be developed in dialogue with future users and under consideration of their use cases. In this hands-on workshop, experienced trainers will teach you the theoretical basics of UX. You will test the acquired methods in practical exercises and learn to apply them in your own projects.
