Thought provoking. Useful session to start you off in improving customer journeys. Whilst the content seems obvious, it's useful to bring everything to the front of your mind and map out how you would tackle each stage.

By SIEW LAN NG on 5/28/2023

Excellent training. Clear examples to illustrate the difference between customer journey map and process. I've learnt how to create a customer journey map and the reasons why it's so important to have one.

By Jedida Kitsao on 2/14/2023

The foundations and applications of customer journey mapping are explained in an easy to understand way, and in the context of design thinking, with real world examples.

By Pavitra Saraf on 2/7/2023

The course is a good match with what I was expecting from it. It captures the topic well within the defined duration. It could have used more business world examples to make it more relevant for application. Overall I thank the team and the Instructor for the insightful session

so far so good. it's pointing out the reasons for the need. need to see how to resolve the issues in order to determine if it was what I was expecting.

By Ainara Ayala Soriano on 11/10/2019

I found it clear, but very basic. I was expecting more "how to get there" examples and how to facilitate the sessions. We talk about validation, but not discuss at all metrics and how to validate, for instance. Thanks for the course, it´s been a good refresher.

By Shamir Leon Colin Joseph on 9/2/2019

A lot of theory, not much practical work. It gave a brief insight and overview of what a customer journey map is, the elements of the map and explained them using a case study. However, the course did not go into details about how the iterative process is actually carried out in practice and how to involve and get feedback from customers when making the map itself. Customer interviews, feedback forms, observational exercises, testing, All these steps have been excluded. Also, I did not like the fact that in the certificate of completion it says '1 House course'. It demeans the value of the certificate.

Poderia ter legenda em português. O professor é Indiano e seu sotaque acaba dificultando o entendimento, as possíveis alternativas são um professor com uma fala mais fluida de melhor entendimento a nós, brasileiros ou legenda em nossa língua.

By Nicholas Schreiber on 3/18/2019

It was a great course on User Journey Mapping that provides awesome insight into the process. Would recommend it to anyone that wants to learn how to create journey maps!
