Expand your users’ cognitive abilities and make them think harder. Create
complex interaction flows and clever, nonobvious interfaces.

Sold-Out Seminars

A few courses are now sold out at the Washington, DC conference:

   - Information Architecture
   <http://nngroup.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=538d934a891681a5d850bb4e5&id=330cc752c6&e=d1c480de21>
   - Visual Design for Mobile and Tablet: Day 1
   <http://nngroup.us4.list-manage2.com/track/click?u=538d934a891681a5d850bb4e5&id=c8d3985b46&e=d1c480de21>

I apologize for under-estimating the growing interest in solid UX
information, but we had to book these conference rooms long ago, because DC
is a hard place to secure event venues. However, there are still many
topics with available seats in DC (though only a few open seats in some
cases). Also, if you specifically need one of the sold-out topics, they are
offered in other cities later in the year (click each link to see the
cities for that topic).
