Everyone is currently talking about "user experience" or "customer experience" or "interaction design" or "interface design", but what does it all mean, and what does it mean for your company? In a day when computers and technology continues to invade every inch of people's lives, good design is one of the most important weapons available. Effective user centred design can make the difference between a product that sells and a product that sells well with little or no customer support required. This training course will cover the main areas of creating excellent and efficient user experiences. It will explain the difference between interaction design, interface design, information architecture, graphic design, usability and human computer interaction (HCI). It will also explain what these different elements mean for different projects that are worked on every day.
