Have you had to make decisions based on assumption or hunches? Or worse still, made a wrong decision based on poor or inappropriate research? Have you conducted expensive focus groups that left you thinking, “so what”? Are you bombarding your customers with surveys that never seem to deliver the insight you need? If so, this course is for you.
This course is equally for you if you want to learn how to know the best way to spend your time and resources to get the maximum insight to feed into your UX strategy. Doing research is important, but doing the right research is more important still. This course will teach you how to plan a research programme (for you, your teams or 3rd parties to execute) and how to spot and reject bogus research.
The foundation course is aimed at those with limited (or no) experience of commissioning or running user research projects, with a view to helping you to confidently understand and choose the appropriate research methods for your projects. Product owners, UI Designers, and Project Managers would all likely benefit from this course.
