UX Grad Scheme Training Programme
COURSE COORDINATOR AND FACILITATOR
Since the Ocado UX Grad Scheme has existed I have designed and coordinated a learning programme for the new UXers, which runs weekly for the first 6 months of their time with the company.
This has evolved over the years and now provides the UX grads with a 10 week practise project where they do discovery on, prototype, research and high fidelity design their own application.
After this the course focuses on more specific UX skills around different methodologies and advanced Figma techniques, as well as sessions on engaging with the wider business.

The Workshop Workshop

A half day event that covers all the tools and tricks needed to get started on building your own workshops. The course covers icebreakers and energisers, how to design your workshop, converging ideation techniques, diverging ideation techniques and general facilitation tricks.
