WORKshop: Human-Centered Design 101

Join us for this fun and informative 90-minute workshop at WORK!

Shira Babow will break down the buzzword “innovation” and use a methodology from Stanford’s D.School to introduce you to Human-Centered Design (HCD). HCD helps us approach our work with two goals: keeping the end-user as the focus and constantly testing our assumptions. Anyone can use HCD to improve their personal and professional projects.

This workshop is 90 minutes of learning-by-doing, fun, and creativity! No prior skills needed – just bring your curiosity.

Free for WORK members, $10 for non-members
