We’ve been doing a lot of user research and designs for iPhone apps, Android apps, mobile optimised websites and websites using responsive design. However we have a hunch that many organisations are struggling with choosing a platform, designing for the context of use or maybe they’re not sure what to do next.
So we’ve created a two day course to equip you with the knowledge and tools to plan your mobile strategy and determine the ins and outs of designing for multiple mobile devices.
The training course has two streams: the first day focuses on defining your mobile strategy, and the second addresses mobile design techniques. We realise that one day might be of more interest to some people, so you’re free to attend whichever day you prefer, or both days if you’d like the full course.

But it’s not just about price – another common behaviour is checking reviews and getting further details on a product.
If you’re a retailer, this year might be your last chance to take advantage of your online and mobile channels. If you don’t, you’re going to miss out.
It shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone that a record number of Australians did their Christmas shopping online last year. More Australians chose online to discover interesting products, conduct research, avoid crowds, and save both time and money.
