The Human-Centered Design Community of Practice is relaunching on November 14th with a World Usability Day Event!

World Usability Day is a single worldwide day of events around the world that brings together communities of professional, industrial, educational, citizen and governmental groups for our common objective: to ensure that technology helps people live to their full potential and helps create a better world for all citizens everywhere.

The 14th annual World Usability Day event will be celebrated globally with programs and conferences being organized in over 40 countries around the world. This year’s theme is “Design for the Future We Want."

Why is ISG hosting a World Usability Day? 

As usability professionals, our work is moving us closer to a certain future. Whether the progress towards it is intentionally or unintentionally created, or whether that future is tomorrow, next month, or several years down the line – we are all heading towards endpoints of our own creation. This begs the question – What kind of future are we designing for? Our event will be an opportunity:

• For the Human-Centered Design Community of Practice to come together and share knowledge,
• To showcase some of the work and learning across the lines of business,
• And to highlight some of the human-centered design work that takes place throughout the agency.

Save the Date!
