SUMMARY:UX Intensive
LOCATION:Amsterdam, Netherlands
DESCRIPTION:The field of user experience is too young to be caught up in tr
 ade secrets and intellectual isolation. To help advance the field, Adaptive
  Path promotes its ideas at public workshops around the world, and send the
 m out as free essays in our newsletters. 
\n
\nAdaptive Path is leading the
  way to user-focused design by placing emphasis on how design affects the u
 ser. For those who adhere to the tenets of user-centered design, Adaptive P
 ath assures dividends. This is UX Intensive defined. This workshop series e
 xamines the four key elements that contribute to a successful interactive e
 xperience: Design Strategy, Design Research, Interaction Design and Informa
 tion Architecture.
\n
\nThe workshops of UX Intensive are for experienced d
 esigners and their managers who are looking to learn new ways to provide le
 adership within their organizations through design and research. Workshop p
 articipants leave each day with more sophisticated understanding of their f
 ield and a new set of tools to put that understanding to good use.
\n
\nThe
  workshops are taught by leaders in the field. These designers and research
 ers are the folks to whom Google, Sony, Greenpeace, The United Nations, and
  Intel turn to when they need to reconsider their customers’ interactive 
 
\nexperiences:
