Students will gain foundational skills and knowledge to specialize in healthcare UX. This course focuses on the&nbsp;specific challenges and requirements of designing for healthcare, including regulations, accessibility, and patient-centered design. Through hands-on learning, students will gain practical experience in research, design, and problem-solving, preparing them to contribute effectively in this field. A key part of the course is&nbsp;building a functional AI-powered healthcare app, using a no-code tool. This project will help students&nbsp;apply their learning in a real-world context&nbsp;and create a strong portfolio piece. By the end of the course, students will have a&nbsp;clear understanding of healthcare UX, a portfolio showcasing their work, and a&nbsp;structured approach to navigating career opportunities in the field. This is a three-week course designed to introduce new folks to the healthcare UX field equipped with a basic toolkit and working healthcare app, and for more experienced folks to get coaching in closing those high-level job interviews. A foundational understanding of UX is helpful as this class will focus on the aspects of UX specific to healthcare, but folks from all backgrounds have created amazing apps. Note: As this is a short-form course it includes just what you need to hit the ground running - however, it is not a substitute for an accredited degree program and does not guarantee job placement.
