UPA of Iowa
promoting usability concepts and techniques in Iowa
We are the Iowa chapter of the Usability Professionals’ Association. UPA supports usability specialists, people from all aspects of human-centered design, and the broad family of disciplines that create the user experience in promoting the design and development of usable products.
Our members come from a range of backgrounds, companies and industries, and apply usability principles to a number of practical applications.
This site is intended to be an introduction to usability practitioners not yet a part of our group, a resource for usability professionals and students, and a community-building site for members of the group.
