Interested in learning how User Experience (UX) design can help you meet your goals? What are the quick wins for knowing your users, designing with your team and getting feedback on your designs? This webinar is for you if you are involved in maintaining or designing a website, tool or app or alternatively, are in a role where it is key to understand your user (e.g. training or capacity building).

User experience design places the user at the centre of development. Our speakers will discuss tools to profile the user (e.g. personas), to create a user journey, and using sketches and prototypes for usability testing.

We will focus on lean UX tools, and will discuss quick wins for knowing your users, designing with your team and getting feedback on your designs.

During this webinar we introduce you to UX design using the Open Targets platform as a case study, showing how UX can be applied and demonstrate how it can make a positive difference.
