The program

Day 1

  • An introduction to the basic principles and theory of service design
  • Everything starts with identifying the right question. To do this, we co-create a research challenge and examine assumptions.
  • Uncovering the needs and desires of your end-user, with various qualitative user research methods
  • Creating a deeper understanding of your target audience. How do they experience your service? What are the problems they encounter? Which opportunities lies ahead? We map everything out, using persona’s and customer journeys.

Day 2

  • Nothing like a good idea generation session to start the day. We’ll brainstorm on how we could meet the needs of your target audience even better with new services.
  • Making ideas and solutions tangible by creating prototypes, then validating them quickly to iterate and improve those first concepts
  • We end our training with concrete tips to improve your services’ quality long-term.
