We think a course can be useful because it brings together resources and exercises that you won’t be able to on your own. Plus, we offer feedback from working UX writers and content designers.
Technical writers, who are accustomed to crafting detailed documentation and instructions, are uniquely positioned to influence UX. Their ability to present complex information in a clear and accessible way directly impacts how users experience a product. By integrating UX principles into their work, technical writers can enhance the usability of their content and, by extension, the product itself.
