‼️ Revamped 2026 Curriculum + format. Price will go up after March 1st 2026. Includes content updates from 2 future cohorts! Is this you? You’re sitting in front of a mountain of raw feedback—interview transcripts, survey results, and customer messages from multiple sources. Your brain is fried from collecting it all, but the real challenge hasn’t even started yet: turning that pile into clear, actionable insights. Stakeholders are emailing:👋 “Where’s the analysis?”👋 “When can we share this with the team?”👋 "We need to decide about [product change] NOW." -You've been trying to use AI to speed things up, but it gave you results that didn’t feel reliable.- Vague themes, out-of-context quotes, or flat-out fake "user insights."- You have a constant fear that it missed something critical that *you* would have found.- And after all the time spent, you decide to re-do the analysis manually anyway.-I’ve been there, too. 🙋‍♀️If you’ve felt stuck in endless ChatGPT loops, redoing AI’s work, or wondering if there’s a better way—this is for you.With the right knowledge and systems, AI stops being such a gamble and becomes an ally you can trust for faster - and more complete analysis.

2026: AI isn't optional. It's a core tool - and most people haven't mastered it.

You're a Designer, Researcher or Product person spending hours digging through customer input, searching for insights that matter.

You’ve tried AI tools, but the results feel “meh.” Instead of saving time, they create more work -- and you're back to doing it yourself.

Learn to build AI agents and workflows—developing judgment for what works, what doesn't, and how to adapt as capabilities evolve.

You've heard about AI agents. Synthetic users. Deep thinking models that can work autonomously for hours. They sound powerful – but what do you actually do with them?These new capabilities – agentic AI that runs complex multi-step processes, synthetic users that scale research impossibly fast, systems that think deeply while you're offline – unlock something fundamentally different. Not faster prompting. True research partners that follow your direction, think through problems, and execute sophisticated workflows without you at the keyboard.This course teaches you to harness these frontier capabilities. You'll create agentic workflows that execute multi-step research processes independently. You'll deploy synthetic users informed by real research data and learn when they're valid versus when human participants are essential. You'll build systems that think for considerable time, following the exact research patterns and rigor you define.Using accessible tools like n8n and Claude Code, you'll move from prompting to orchestrating. No coding background required – but you will learn to work with an IDE, terminal, and automation platforms that unlock AI's full research potential.

Move Beyond Prompting. Harness the Full Power of Agentic AI for Research.

Cohort 5

In this course I share everything I've learned about how to write with impact that I've learned in a 10+ year career that spanned management consulting, big tech and founding my own UX research agency. I created this course because I believe that good ideas need good communication to thrive. Writing is an essential skill for anyone who works in any organisation from the smallest agile startup all the way through to the biggest publicly listed corporate organisation. Being able to align stakeholders around your ideas, your vision, your insights, and your recommendations is an absolutely critical skill for anyone who works with customer insights. I believe that this is a skill that can be taught and can be improved. Many of us go for long stretches in our career, focusing on other more technical skills. But writing is a critical, foundational skill that can and will increase your influence inside and outside your organisation.

<pre><code class="language-markdown">If you're anxious that AI might make your skills obsolete, you're not alone. Customer research is changing fast—and whether you're a seasoned researcher or a designer or PM now expected to gather insights, you need to create results you can trust in an AI-powered world.

Here's the challenge: AI tools promise speed and scale, but can you trust the output? How do you maintain quality while leveraging AI's power?

The gap is widening. Some teams spend weeks gathering insights manually while AI-confident practitioners deliver trustworthy results in days at 10x scale. The difference isn't just speed—it's who gets invited to strategic conversations, who leads high-impact projects, and who shapes decisions with confidence.

This course gives you frameworks to evaluate quality and trust. You'll access enterprise-grade tools, learn from founders building these platforms, and develop critical judgment to distinguish reliable insights from AI noise.

You'll try tools yourself and form your own conclusions. No hype. Just practical expertise from someone who's tested hundreds of tools and knows what delivers trustworthy insights.</code></pre>

Masterclass 4

This masterclass will show you how to connect your UX research to dollars, cents, and decisions that matter. You’ll learn practical methods to quantify impact, not just describe it. We’ll move from talking about “insights” to proving how your work redirects priorities and creates measurable value. You’ll leave knowing how to identify and communicate metrics that demonstrate the real impact of UX research - even when you don’t have product data. You’ll understand the four levels of impact that UX research creates inside organisations and how to frame your contribution at each one. And you’ll write your own impact statement, ready to use in a performance review, portfolio, or CV. If you want to grow your influence, build credibility with business stakeholders, and prove the impact of UX research, this action packed 2-hour session will give you the tools and language to do it.

This course shows you how to apply JTBD to real business decisions—by using the right framework for the right use case.You’ll move beyond idea-driven innovation to designing around customer progress—what actually drives demand, adoption, retention, and growth. Rather than treating JTBD as one method, you’ll learn how it applies across seven real-world use cases, grouped into four goals:<ul><li>Growth &amp; Market Expansion – increase demand and adoption</li><li>Product &amp; Offering Differentiation – compete through better products and services</li><li>Experience &amp; Decision Enablement – reduce friction and support confident decisions</li><li>Retention &amp; Long-Term Value – improve customer success and loyalty over time</li></ul>You’ll compare the top three JTBD frameworks side by side—Ulwick’s ODI, Kalbach’s JTBD Canvas 2.0, and Boehme’s Wheel of Progress®—to understand when to use each and where they fall short.In the final project, you’ll apply the right JTBD approach to your own use case, leaving with a practical, decision-ready framework you can take back to your team.
