Participate in one of many World Usability Day Events in Michigan Next Week!

[Dave Mitropoulos-Rundus]

World Usability Day is Thursday November 13^th.

Events are held around the world on this day, and Michigan alone has 5 events across the State. The events range in cost from FREE to $20, and it is a great opportunity to get some training locally…and network with other UX people while we are at it.

 

Following is a summary and links.

 

I hope you can participate in one or more!

Regards,

Hi Christina,

How are you and things at QL? After 4.5 months away from QL, I will be back in the building this coming Thursday morning to present with some other people on UX and usability. I sent you a free ticket incase you would like to come down for part or all of the morning. Please also let your team know in case some would have interest and wish to take advantage of this event! As you can see below, there is also an evening event up the street, and other events around the state.

All my best!

This note was intended for an individual and not this distribution list. You all have already received enough announcements already.

Apologetically yours,
