5th Annual World Usability Day New England: November 12, 2009

Dartmouth College and Landmark College are taking a break this year from hosting this annual conference. We look forward to co-hosting WUDNE 2010 next November on the Landmark College campus.

The theme this year is sustainability. Events worldwide will consider how design processes and decisions affect the social and economic impact of systems, products, and services.

At Landmark this November 12th, we will take part in World Usability Day with an internal design activity to identify pain-points and opportunities for the sustainable renovation of one of our campus buildings. We will share the outcomes of this design work session.

The Usability Professionals' Association organized World Usability Day events worldwide with the goal of increasing awareness of the importance of usability and user-centered design. Last year’s saw participation of more than 40,000 people in 175 cities in 35 countries around the world.
