In most discussions of Agile approaches to system development, the issue of usability and user experience are left to the imagination. In this session we'll look at some of the arguments both for and against a significant effort in user experience (so you'll be prepared). You'll also learn how to present your own case based on demonstrable improvements that will be made in customer satisfaction, reduced customer support and increased productivity.
Most of the Guerrilla UCD webinars are intended for a broad audience. However, this session is particularly for usability and user experience specialists trying to ensure or increase commitment to usability, user experience and user-centred design. Naturally, anyone with similar interests would find this webinar useful:
All Guerrilla UCD webinars are 90 minutes long and include audio/video recordings and a copy of the slides. Recordings will be available for download after the live session. All resources can be shared within your team.
If you are able to attend a live session, you will be able to ask questions using a chat facility. You can connect to the webinar over the internet, or in most countries use a local-dial phone number and follow the session using the slides. See About Guerrilla UCD for more details.
