If I cannot make a session, will I be able to watch it later? 

The sessions were recorded and are available for viewing here. 

Can I have a copy of the presentations? 

Yes, the presentations are available here.

When is the next World Usability Day?

Mark your calendars for World Usability Day 2022 on Tuesday, November 8 and look for more to come on next year's theme and CCSQ events. 

Do I have to attend the entire day? 

We encourage you to join us for the entire time; however, the event will be an open-house style format, and you are welcome to join portions of the program that align with your schedule and interests. Review the schedule to identify the sessions that interest you the most. 

How will I know if a session will be of interest to me? 

First, review the schedule to learn more about the sessions. We have labeled each session with likely areas of interest (compliance, data, design, leadership, policy, product, strategy, and technology).  

The schedule identifies a keynote presentation, two plenary sessions, and a panel discussion that we anticipate will have the broadest appeal to all attendees. We expect all the sessions to provide insightful information as we explore design, trust, ethics, and integrity. 

Will I be able to participate during the event and connect with other attendees even though it is virtual? 

There will be time for Q&A sessions at the end of most presentations, breakout rooms to meet the speakers, and an interactive activity.  

What kind of prizes are you giving away?

Attendees will be entered into drawings for 9 prizes! 

• Custom Avatar. Win one of two avatars formatted for Slack, MS Office... or pretty much anywhere. Personally characterized by a graphic designer based on your headshot.
• Custom Zoom Virtual Background. Win one of five backgrounds designed personally for you and formatted to meet Zoom specifications.
• Lunch n' Learn. Win one of two Zoom-based HCD presentations or workshops for you and your team or business group.

Learn more about how the drawing will work.

Does the event qualify for self-education and training? 

Yes, for ISG Federal Employees, participation in communities of practice, workshops, training, conferences, and other events can be used as a direct contribution to meet ISG Playbook Objective 6, Key Result 1. The objective requires ISG Employees to spend 5% of their time, approximately 8 hours per month, on self-education. Management review and approval of training attendance must occur before registration. After attendance, ISG Employees can self-attest to their attendance and education hours and will record those hours on the ISG Education Connection Training Tracker. 

Who is the event for? 

CCSQ World Usability Day is open to the entire CCSQ and QualityNet community. We have a diverse group of professionals presenting topics relevant to positions across the product development ecosystem and beyond. You can find the intended audience within each session description, but do not be afraid to join if you do not see your exact area of interest listed. We have labeled each session with likely areas of interest: compliance, data, design, leadership, policy, product, strategy, and technology.
