Why PET design?
While traditional user-centered web design focuses on designing for usability, it is now essential to design for Persuasion, Emotion, and Trust to satisfy customer needs and meet business objectives.

In this course, you will learn advanced techniques to:

  • Engage customers
  • Persuade users to act
  • Achieve measurable results

Whether your site, application, or product is informational, functional, or transactional, PET design teaches you how to influence people to make decisions leading to conversion.

"This is incredibly important work that, if done correctly, with proper diligence and ethics, can open up entirely new ways of thinking about business and web strategy. This course properly redefines what User Experience means. Organizations that do not adopt at least some of these principles will be left behind in very short order."
