Description

Organisations are now asked to put users at the centre of their design endeavours, which demands services to be developed from outside-in instead of inside-out. Thus, this service design training provides participants with a multidisciplinary, collaborative and human-centred approach that focus on the user’s experience through services that are useful, usable, and desirable as well as effective, efficient, and distinctive.

 

Participants in the training will develop the craft of tying together human, digital, and physical interactions, over time and space, to orchestrate a service experience that meets the needs and exceeds the expectations of users, staff and partners. In order to co-create meaningful value an array of tools and methods are exercised, such as persona maps, empathy maps, journey maps, LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY®, SAP-Scenes, Wizard of Oz prototype, etc.

 

Moodle is used as the training virtual learning environment, and the training uses blended learning supported by three main learning forms:

  1. contact learning - A proportion of the training hours provide the opportunity for contact learning between participants and experts (the facilitators and other relevant stakeholders). Contact learning takes place during the six interactive contact days offered to participants.

  2. directed learning - Forms of directed learning used are individual learning activities and the service design project commissioned by a real-life organisation, which is answered by diverse teams, which include Master level students. Teams are coached and supported by experienced service design trainers. Participants in the training can offer their own company as the commissioned case.

  3. self-directed learning - Self-directed learning is also an important part of this training and participants are encouraged to set their own learning objectives and learn on their own.

In short, this training provides participants with:

  • 48-hours of contact learning

  • 221-hours of directed and self-directed learning

  • 1-hour of the assessment of one’s own learning
