Course Description
Learn the Lean UX way to design better, faster user experiences.
You'll learn everything you need to know to use a Lean UX process on your next project. Lean UX applies the Lean Startup ideas to the design of user experiences. When you do Lean UX you come up with hypotheses about design, create minimum viable products/prototypes, then test the hypotheses with your users. At that point you make a decision about whether your hypotheses were true or not, and what idea to try next. It's a radical approach to designing user experiences. The result is that you design better and you design faster.

Susan Weinschenk, Ph.D.
I have a Ph.D. in Psychology and decades of experience as a behavioral scientist, applying psychology to the design of digital products. I'm a consultant to Fortune 1000 companies, start-ups, and educational and government organizations.
A client once referred to me as "The Brain Lady", and it stuck. Probably because I like to teach and consult about brain science.
I'm currently the Founder and Principal of The Team W. I consult, coach, teach, and speak about behavioral science, brain science, psychology, design, innovation, and user experience. I've been lucky enough to travel around the world as a keynote speaker.
I am also an Adjunct Professor at the University of Wisconsin.
My clients include Disney, Amazon, The Mayo Clinic, Zappos, the Federal Trade Commission (USA), and the European Commission.
I like to write books, including: 100 Things Every Designer Needs To Know About People, How To Get People To Do Stuff, 100 Things Every Presenter Needs To Know About People, and Neuro Web Design: What makes them click? I blog at my own website and I blog for Psychology Today.
My work over the years has included the design of websites, software, medical devices, TV ads, physical devices, experiences, and physical spaces to make them persuasive, usable and motivating.
I live in Wisconsin, USA, with my husband. My two children are grown and "launched". When not teaching, speaking, writing, or blogging, I perform

great class
By Akar şümşet
I already shared this with Susan and she was already in process of enhancing the course.
By Yves Binda
The presenter is very knowledgeable and easy to follow.
By Ori Zmora
Ms. Weinschenk is a great presenter and has extensive UX knowledge and some good courses.
This course is a nice introduction to lean UX, but is not enough to get you implementing lean UX on its own.
By Kim Krause Berg
I recommend this course because she has us practicing and watching how she applies Lean concepts. Great introduction to Lean UX.
By Matt Watier
Unfortunately the lack of real-world implementation this course sounds like a utopic view for a company. Using the method she implores has very little sucess for a project focused company that has zero patience for failure.
By (KC) Kevin Porter
Very easy to understand and I like the pace she moves to explain things.
By Timothy Delroy
As always, Susan Weinschenk delivers exactly what you need to know and how to apply it. I've taken a few of her courses and they blow away most of the courses here. Good production, very professional and they don't have hours of fluff to make the course look more significant. Excellent as always.
By Lynne Davies
This course gives a good overview of lean UX. I particularly enjoyed the exercises, which were very well thought out and if you email your responses to Susan she provides personal feedback (very rapidly too).
By Bryan McDonough
I like the instructor but am struggling to figure out how this would work in my organization. For example, what if the MVP itself must be larger for a user to even complete a task? Does the hypothesis span multiple Sprints? In practice, this could get very complicated.
By Chuck Marshall
Good course at a high level. Not real deep, but it wasn't meant to be deep. My only recommendation is to add a few more exercises into the course.
By Stephanie Kao
When I incorrectly answer a question, it just tells me that it’s something I should review, but I’m not sure where it was actually covered...
