User Centered Design

User-Centered Design (UCD) is an iterative design process in which designers focus on the users and their needs in each phase of the design process. Coursera's UCD catalogue teaches you to understand and apply the principles of user-centered design in the digital realm. You'll learn how to conduct user research, create user personas, design wireframes and prototypes, perform usability testing, and implement user interface design based on user feedback. Gain proficiency in tools used for UCD such as Sketch, Adobe XD, Figma, and others. This skill is essential for roles such as UX designer, UI designer, product designer, and interaction designer, or anyone interested in creating user-friendly digital experiences.
