			<title>AJAX usability training Course - half day course - 7 Aug</title>
			<description>AJAX is changing the way that users interact with websites. AJAX has the potential to provide richer and more interactive online user experiences but also introduces its own set of usability and accessibility problems.

This workshop will present views from leading usability experts from around the world from a workshop conducted at the Usability Professionals Conference in USA in 2007. We will also discuss key usability issues we have unveiled through our own usability testing and research with users in Australia.</description>
