SAE International Adds Two New Courses to Its Line-up of 2014 World Congress Professional Development Seminars
Warrendale, PA (PRWEB) March 05, 2014 -- SAE International announces two new courses that will be added to its professional development seminars during the SAE 2014 World Congress, which will be held April 8-10, 2014, at Cobo Center in Detroit, Mich.
The two new courses, which deal with human factors, include:
• (April 7) Developing In-Vehicle User Interfaces: Design Principles and Techniques – This course will provide a systematic design method to develop intuitive and safe vehicle interface solutions. Participants will learn user interaction design steps, tools, and the team synergies required to develop an interface from concept to the final product. The course will use exercises to practice interface design, with example interfaces to cover lessons learned.
• (April 8) Vehicle User Experience: Human Factors Principles and Techniques for Design, Research and Development – This course will provide an overview of principles and techniques for designing and developing vehicle interfaces which deliver optimal solutions while avoiding unintended consequences like driver distraction. Case studies and exercises will be used to identify best practices with key human factors design and research concepts that provide an intuitive, safe and effective user experience.
Attendees of SAE International’s professional development seminars held in conjunction with the SAE 2014 World Congress & Exhibition will enjoy special, reduced pricing to the annual automotive conference.
Attendees to the seminars get complete access to SAE World Congress activities for only $40 per day, a savings of almost $400 off the SAE World Congress on-site daily rate and a nearly $1,200 savings for all three days.
In addition to the two Human Factors classes, SAE International will offer more than 25 timely, highly rated and acclaimed courses designed to provide knowledge that help shape careers.
