2015 Usability Day


No one should have to suffer through products and services that get in their way. People should not be made to feel stupid by technology.

World Usability Day is an annual day of celebration and education centered around usability. The objective of this day is to bring together people interested in usability, user experience, accessibility, service design, and other related fields, in order to have conversations about how we can work toward ensuring that services and products used in daily life are accessible and simple to use.

Please join us for a few informal sessions on Usability to celebrate this year's World Usability Day! All sessions are free and open to the public.
