Sample usability report

Course handout with the key points

In this course, I am going to cover the essentials of usability testing. The 20% that gives you 80% of the results: Tasks, Detecting issues, and Unpacking issues. Once you master these 3, you will be able to find ways to improve (or surpass) even the world's best-designed apps.

How do I know what the essentials are? I have been doing usability tests for a decade now. I have been doing them in real business and industry settings and saw what made a difference and what didn't. This course is the very essence of what I have learned and distilled during the years. If you only have 60 minutes to learn about Usability Testing, I recommend you learn this.

Who this course is for:

Designers and PMs who want to expand their toolbox with Usability Testing.
Talents who want to start a career in UX Research.
