"Certified Professional for Usability and User Experience" (CPUX)
Whether it's designing user-friendly products, conducting usability tests or developing intuitive user interfaces - sound knowledge in the field of user experience (UX) is now a key competence for designing modern human-technology interaction.
The certification programme is offered by the UXQB - International Usability and User Experience Qualification Board and is divided into different levels. The basic level, CPUX-F (Foundation Level), provides key knowledge in the areas of usability, UX principles, user requirements, design processes and evaluation. The exam is aimed at anyone looking for a sound introduction to UX - whether for study, career entry or further training.
In the Human-Technology Interaction seminar, we teach the basics that are relevant for the CPUX-F certificate. We are also happy to provide support if you are interested in certification and registering for the exam. The CPUX exams are regularly conducted online by certified providers. The cost of the exam is currently 180 euros for students. Participation is possible regardless of location.
With the CPUX-F certificate, students can provide professional proof of their UX expertise during their studies - a valuable advantage when applying for jobs in the fields of UX design, usability engineering or human-technology interaction.
