User Experience Training Webinar

Product not yet rated

Last year LinkedIn described “Usability Expert” as a high demand job title.  LinkedIn and the Bureau of Labor Statistics forecast continued growth in UX jobs through 2030.  Both describe salaries as commensurate with demand, ranging between $77,000 and $103,000.  The purpose of this webinar is to introduce two Usability Experience training courses now available to HFES members at a discount.

The UX Content Collective https://uxcontent.com offers several UX training courses, which are designed to be completed in 8 to 10 weeks.  Their courses include certification tracks for UX Writing, a developing UX specialty.  You can read more about UX Writing here: https://workingincontent.com/r... and here https://uxplanet.org/2019-ui-a....
