About this event
Join us for an Introduction to Design Thinking. This two-half day training event, led by the Further Degree design team, will provide you with the mindset, framework and set of tools you need to put humans and their context at the heart of your innovation efforts.
This is a very hands-on class and you will learn by doing using a digital whiteboarding tool called MIRO. Throughout the day you will work with a team, utilizing a four-part framework to discover, analyze, create and develop a contextualized human-focused product or service.
