Certified Usability Analyst ™

Hmm, still trying to decide what I think about this. I’m all for training, but the whole idea of certification seems a little silly. And yes, they’ve trademarked the term “Usability Analyst”.

Don’t get me wrong - I like HFI’s courses, or at least the idea of them. I’ve tried to sign up for two different courses in the last two months, only to have them both canceled due to lack of enrollment. Maybe the current economic state has more to do with this push for accreditation than anything else….

And sorry I haven’t been posting more. I’ve got a couple of big projects I’m working on - extensive usability testing of Movable Type being one of them. I bet you’d rather have a great weblogging tool than listen to me anyway.

Go check out WebWord or InfoDesign, they’ve got plenty of link goodness over there as usual, most of which I haven’t explored as of late.
