UX Conference

Full event program describing all full-day UX training courses.

Deadline for reduced-fee advance registration for the Virtual UX Conference: this Friday, April 17.

The course on Design Tradeoffs and UX Decision Frameworks is now sold out at next week's Virtual UX Conference, and one or two more courses are close to selling out, so register now to be sure to get your choice of courses. (How can anything sell out in a virtual format with no physical limitations? Because we're still learning how to coordinate multiple instructors across the many audience interaction formats we employ. So right now we still have to limit course sizes. Sorry.)

Virtual Clients

In addition to presenting virtually at our conferences, we have now completed several successful virtual client engagements, presenting courses to teams that work from home. See virtual in-house courses.
