Paul Rouke - Usability Professional

Over at PRWD we have published details of our Advanced Google Analytics Training Course, and below I have provided details of what the course is about and who the course is aimed at:

Why Google Analytics Training?

Google Analytics is a free tool which is generally very simple to be installed on a website. There is an ever increasing number of websites using Google Analytics as their analytics tool of choice, but that isn’t to say businesses understand how to set-up Google Analytics correctly and how to get the most commercial value out of the statistics and reports available.

Google Analytics provides both basic and enterprise class features and functionality, but understanding what is available and what applies to individual businesses and users does not come easy.

This course, delivered in-house to ensure key stakeholders from the same company can benefit simultaneously, aims to help you and your business colleagues begin using Google Analytics effectively.

Further reading

• Case Study: In-house training for The Scout Association
• Econsultancy training course by Paul Rouke: E-commerce Usability and Best Practice

Along with providing public training courses, most notably for Econsultancy with a course entitled “E-commerce Usability and Best Practice For Online Retailers” I also provide in-house training and consultancy, especially for retailers.

Most recently I provided a full day of in-house training for The Scout Association. What was most interesting with this work was that they where embedding usability at the very start of their new e-commerce and ERP platform development project, rather than putting a focus on usability and customer experience at the latter end of the project, which is often the case.

In the words of E-commerce and ERP Project Manager Mark Selwyn,

In order to deliver the system within budget, my objective was to build “usability” into the design of the new web stores, using industry best practices, rather than have to rework at a later stage as a result of usability testing

E-commerce Areas Covered

The areas that I provide training on for the in-house e-commerce training are as follows:

• Homepage
• Search
• Navigation
• Category page
• Product page
• Persuasion architecture
• Cross-selling and up-selling
• Shopping basket
• Checkout process
• Web forms

Case Study For In-house Training

We have recently published a case study for the training course I delivered for The Scout Association which provides plenty of detail in the following areas:

• Background to The Scout Association
• Objectives for The Scout Association
• What I Delivered
• The Benefits and Impact for The Scout Association
• Testimonials
• Training Course Feedback Ratings

I must say I was delighted to receive the feedback that I received and its great to see how they are progressing with the project since I delivered the training course.
