About This Event

This seminar describes best practice in web usability, demonstrates good and bad examples of web pages and teaches you the tools and techniques you need to make your own site a success with its users.

OVERVIEW
There are dozens of books and web sites dedicated to web usability, but few of these provide the 'big picture'. The aim of this course is to help delegates design better web sites by showing how the various usability tools and techniques fit into real-world design and development processes.
Over the two-day course, delegates engage in a practical design activity that helps them discover the usability secrets behind e-commerce development. The activity covers the full design lifecycle, including business requirements, customer needs, page and site design, prototyping and usability testing.

WHO IS THE COURSE FOR?
This course is for you if you are actively involved in the design of a web site and you want to make sure that users can find and use content quickly and easily. The course will be valuable for business analysts who want quick and effective tools to communicate web user requirements and for designers who want to learn methods for evaluating their site structure and web page designs. Marketing managers will benefit by learning about the business and brand benefits of a usability focus. Delegates do not need a background in usability to benefit from this course.

HOW WILL I BENEFIT?
After attending this course, you will be able to:
-Describe a user centred design framework that supports end-to-end usability involvement in web projects
-Use personas to share information about customers and their tasks in an engaging and usable way
-Develop cheap, throwaway prototypes to get quick and frequent feedback from your users
-Specify usability metrics
-Apply discount usability techniques, such as Nielsen's heuristic evaluation
