“We seek to bring together professionals from the marketing, design, technology and research communitiesso that we mayshare our collective experiences and create a forum for learning and professional growth. A rough definition of a usability professional is someone who samples the interaction between a user and an application or product, measures the results, and presents findings to a team, or management. This is usually done to set a baseline, discover areas for improvement, validate changes, or some combination of all of these. Usability testing can be iterative, depending upon the size of a project, and it can be as formal or informal as the project environment allows. A core concept of usability involves testing with prototypes before any live code is deployed.”

“We host events featuring speakers, panels, or workshops that cover topics related to the user experience industry. Event topics range from e-commerce to social media to research. Some events are introductory, and others are more of a deep-dive into a specific discipline, such as usability metrics or eye-tracking.”
