Testimonials
The seminar explains the connections between the different research and prototyping methods very clearly. All important methods are explained and supported by many exercises. The cheerful trainer created a good atmosphere.
"The seminar "UX Professional, Advanced User Experience" has given me a multitude of valuable ideas that will enrich my work in the conception of software systems. It is fascinating what a variety of topics we have worked through in three days. The extensive seminar documents with the many links to more in-depth information round off the positive overall impression."
The 3 days were very interesting and instructive. Despite much theory not boring! Great praise! My expectations were fulfilled.
For me as a print designer who is increasingly involved with interactive design, the seminar was an enrichment in many respects. Stefan succeeds in conveying the variety of relevant topics in a simple and practical way.
Dear Stefan, thank you very much for the great seminar! It was a lot of fun and pleasure to join this exciting seminar.
