Customer journey mapping, modelling & information architecture
Learn how to distil research data and insight into useful tools that will drive design forward on the basis of user centred knowledge.
Course description
Insights from research are not used if they live in spreadsheets and slide decks or sit as notes in your desk drawer. Learn how to bridge the gap between research and design by turning data and insight into useful design tools upon which you can act and communicate effectively.
This 1 day course explains how to distil customer data into actionable models such as personas, empathy maps, experience maps, and mental-content models, as well as various forms of requirement modelling such as ‘jobs to be done,’ scenarios, and use cases. It introduces the important topic of information architecture and how this can be constructed and tested for use in websites and other similar systems.
It’s fun, it’s interactive and you’ll meet interesting people to exchange ideas and experiences with. By the end of the course you will have produced something worthwhile and will go back to your desk armed with tools to ensure your research and insights translate into exceptional user centred designs.

About your trainer
Jon holds a DPhil. in Visual and Computational Neuroscience from Oxford University. Jon is a former invited expert for the Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI) and former editor-in-chief of the Usability Professionals Association newsletter.
In 1999, Jon escaped the cosy confines of academia and co-founded Bunnyfoot. He likes to keep hands-on with client work where possible (his recent projects include Boden, Microsoft, Cotswold Outdoors, M&S) but is also in-demand from national and international conferences and training courses.
The site was developed following extensive user research, and features a new, streamlined navigation that reflects the way people choose to access information, as well as more intuitive functions that enable users to quickly access the right data. We’ve already seen a number of encouraging results including increased dwell times and engagement levels, as well as improved mobile conversions on key funnels.
I wanted to let you know what a pleasure it was working with you and the rest of the Bunnyfoot team on both this and the IA project. I am in no way exaggerating when I say that you were by far the best suppliers I dealt with, both personally and professionally. I know that I learnt a lot from your approach. Please pass on my thanks to all the fabulous consultants that I worked with over the past few years
