Blueprint Usability

Usability Training

We offer our usabilit training courses as in-house events. We bring the course to you.

In-house training gives us the opportunity to customize the training material to suit your business. This means our instructor can concentrate on the specific issues facing your design team. This practical focus improves delegate learning and performance on the job.

In-house training

We offer the following in-house seminars.

Benefits of in-house usability training

  • Bring business-critical usability skills into your company.
  • Practice new techniques to solve specific design problems that you are facing.
  • Hear about real-world solutions discovered during our own consulting experience.
  • Receive personal attention from trainers with practical experience in solving design problems like yours.

Measuring the success of your in-house usability training?

We will ask this question at the beginning of the training activity. We can assess it by:

  • Asking delegates to rate the training course - paying particular attention to how they answer the question, "This training will help me do my job better (Yes/No)".
  • Carrying out a site visit to see if people are doing what they were taught.
  • Measuring the impact on the business, for example in product improvement, reduced development costs or increased profits.

Off-site training

If you would like to get off-site, we can arrange to deliver the seminar in a local hotel meeting room, close to your facility.

The only thing worse than training employees and having them quit, is not training employees and having them stay.

Training room requirements

We can deliver our seminars in any quiet room in your office or building, you do not need a specialized training facility. Here's what we need:

  • A conference room and table that can comfortably seat 6-12 people, or a room with chairs and desks arranged in a classroom format with delegates seated in pairs.
  • Breakout rooms, or meeting spaces, for the syndicate exercises for some seminars.
  • For the 2-day seminars, it helps if we can leave seminar materials and equipment in the room overnight.
  • An LCD projector and projection screen (and a spare bulb ... just in case!).
  • Two flip charts, or one flip chart and a whiteboard.
