Press Release Body = Userfocus, the UK's leading usability training company, now
offers a free place to non-profit organizations on all of its training courses.

for a non-profit can attend free of charge.

The training courses vary in length from one to two days and include:

. Web Usability training (http://www.userfocus.co.uk/training/webusability.html)
. Usability testing training (http://www.userfocus.co.uk/training/usabilitytest.html)

(http://www.userfocus.co.uk/training/webaccessibility.html)
. Usability expert review training (http://www.userfocus.co.uk/training/quickfire.html)

"Userfocus is delighted to offer a pro bono place on our training courses," said
David Travis, Director of Userfocus ltd. "Non-profits need to improve the usability
and accessibility of their web sites just like other organizations. But they often
struggle to fund the training costs of their developers and designers. Now their
staff can attend the same high quality usability training courses as large
corporates."

Several non-profit organizations have already taken advantage of the free training,
including Cancer Research, Mind and RNID. Feedback on the training has been
universally positive. For example, after attending Userfocus's Web Accessibility
training, Gerry Loughran from Christian Aid said, "The course opened my eyes to the
importance of accessibility and the tools available to achieve it." Similarly, James
Elliot, from the World Society for the Protection of Animals described the Web
Usability training as, "The best course I have ever attended."

Userfocus run their usability training courses every month at the Usability Training
Centre in Central London.
