How Usability makes Operations Procedures Safer!
Event Information
About this event
Why Attend a Presentation about Usability and Operations Procedures?
Our presentation focuses on creating safer operation procedures, standards, guidelines and technical manuals. You will learn why we use the sciences of human cognition, learning and behavior patterns as well as psycholinguistics to drive and guide the behavior of users to keep them safer.
We'll review the principles underlying Usability Mapping and how you can create safer documentation faster and cheaper than traditional technical writing.
If you write anything to help anyone get something done, or manage teams that do, this presentation is for you.
