June 1 - STEVE KRUG

Do-It-Yourself Usability Testing: The Workshop

Usability testing is the single most valuable thing you can do to improve a Web site, a Web application, or a piece of software, and not nearly enough of it gets done. In this day-long workshop, Steve Krug, author of Don't Make Me Think and Rocket Surgery Made Easy, will teach you how to do your own low-cost/no-cost testing that's simple enough to make it a routine part of your design process.

Adaptable Information Architecture: How to Say No to Your Next Redesign

Is your site stuck in a cycle of redesign after expensive, painful redesign?  Are you tired of making short-term, cosmetic changes, and never really solving problems for your site's users?  Then attend this workshop!

Lou Rosenfeld, co-author of Information Architecture for the World Wide Web, will teach you practical skills and show you design approaches that will help you tune and tweak your site's information architecture, improve your users' experiences with your site, all while costing your employer less than just about any redesign initiative.
