Overview

The 2 day certified User Experience Design UXD course explores the steps of designing a website or application in order to attract the intended target g audiences and user groups. By learning this skill, we will help you achieve an understanding of users' problems and ways to address them, learn to integrate graphic aspects with application goals, gain effective testing techniques, and more.

UXD studies and evaluates how users feel about the product, looking at such things as ease of use, aesthetics, perception of the value of the system, utility, or efficiency.

UX designers explore and test out a variety of different approaches to solving specific user problems.

The broad responsibility of a UX designer is to ensure that the product logically flows from one step to the next. They also constantly develop software to keep up with technological advancements and increase user satisfaction.

This course will teach you to create well-crafted, easy-to-use websites that encourage users to come back again.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
