New HFI white paper
In this white paper
Seven years ago, HFI established industry-standard certification of usability professionals' knowledge and skills in user-centered design. We are pleased to review the progress of the Certified Usability Analyst™ (CUA) program in this white paper.
Since launching the CUA certification, over 2500 usability practitioners, designers, managers, and business owners around the world have passed the exam and been certified as CUAs. The CUA has become a recognized certification among both user experience professionals and enterprise organizations. The expertise of CUAs has contributed significantly to the expansion of user-centered site and application design both in client/employer organizations and across the profession.
This paper explores the value of CUA certification in:
- Building the skills of the practitioner
- Enhancing careers
- Making teams and business units effective
- Meeting organizations' business objectives
