Building up scenarios and tasks, guerilla user testing
Analysis and reporting of user insights to inform design iteration

How does all this fit together and within the development context? What flows and features should you build first? We’ll look at some project examples and share our experience on what a UX-er needs to do in an agile environment.

Overview of agile methodologies
UX strategy and prioritisation techniques
Iterations, long- and short-cycle projects

You’ll spend the whole day testing your product with actual users, not your teammates. During the project work, you’ll experience what it means to build and iterate a product based on real user feedback.

Impressions from the course

Edmond Jreige

Business development manager at UX studio

I enjoyed working in small groups, learning by doing, afterwork party. I really liked the content and the fact that different people from the studio were coming to explain some topics. Great working atmosphere in the studio, team breakfast on Friday. The feedback we have got from UX researcher Dan was really interesting as he gave us some insights how ux design is part of a whole business strategy.
Jeff Gage

UI/UX Designer, eDOT Germany

The most valuable part of the course was hearing all the answers to my questions which are always popping during the research phase of the new/existing product. Mentors were very helpful! I enjoyed usability testing with real users and getting feedback from UX Studio experts. The course helped to see a bigger picture.
Simon Tratnik

Digital Product Designer, Styliff Tech

I liked actual interviews with users and the team work. All the presentations were great, also you indeed stick to the timeschedule. The atmosphere was really friendly and informal, the lunches together were a good way to set up the mood.
Áron Fridvalszky

UX/UI Designer, Skillio

I found very useful the topic about how to go from the interviews to building personas and user journeys. The pre-course readings and tasks were a good idea! it helped me a lot to get on track. The constant feedback and staying in touch is awesome!
