Learn the fundamentals of the DTA Framework ® and accelerate the development of innovative user-centered products and services. This course encompasses the 3 core areas of the framework:
Problem
The Problem focus area equips individuals, teams and organizations with the techniques to discover the users’ problems through qualitative and quantitative data collection, culminating in a final problem that is well-defined and can be addressed with potential solutions.
Solution
The Solution focus area equips individuals, teams and organizations with the techniques to develop ideas to address the problem, testing assumptions through rapid prototyping and iteration before a solution feels right to build for real.
Product
The Product focus area equips individuals, teams and organizations with the techniques to build and deploy the product within their agile framework, iterating and integrating as user needs are confirmed.
