The most important component of a Graphical User Interface application is the user. If the application is too difficult to navigate or understand, the users will reject it, support and training costs will skyrocket, programmers will get discouraged, and maintenance will be a nightmare. GUI applications must be designed to effectively meet today's demanding business needs.

This class covers the fundamental and key principles of successful GUI design. You will adopt the new GUI paradigm that includes the event-driven mind-set, user-centric design, proper use and placement of GUI controls, and GUI architectural modeling.

Attendees will:

  • Study examples of GUIs that differ based on the nature and type of application being designed.
  • Hear how GUI design standards truly accelerate the development of consistent GUIs.
  • Learn from experts who have trained Fortune 1000 programmers and analysts throughout the U.S., Canada, and Europe.

GUI Design Workshop is the culmination of our 9 years of experience in developing GUIs for business applications.

What will I learn?

This two-day class, for both developers and end-users, explains how to apply the concepts of the graphical design paradigm quickly and efficiently.

Attendees will learn how to:

  • Determine the GUI application's navigation and presentation model.
  • Convert character-based interfaces (CUIs) to GUIs.
  • Create GUIs from user requirements.
  • Prototype and test usability.
  • Create in-house GUI design standards.
