On Tuesday, February 10, 2009, from 6:00pm to 8:30pm, the Michigan Usability Professionals’ Association will host Introduction to Usability: An Interactive Discussion at Quicken Loans in Livonia, Michigan.
Interested in learning the basics and benefits of user-centered design and how to introduce it into your organization? This is the event you want to attend!
Mike Beasley, the president of the Michigan UPA, and Dave Mitropoulos-Rundus, owner and principal of UsableWorld, will lead the discussion. Learn about:
- What is usability? Can you touch it? Can you measure it?
- How can you incorporate it into your organization?
- “Usability,” “User Experience,” “Human Factors,” “Information Architecture?” What do these words and phrases mean?
- What can my website analytics tell me about the usability of my site?
- How can you use user tasks and goals to organize your website?
Food and networking begins at 6:00pm, program at 7:00pm.
The introduction to the basics of usability will be followed by a Q&A session. Audience members will set the agenda for this discussion through the questions you bring, so come prepared!
