Human Computer Interaction courses can help you learn user interface design, usability testing, interaction design principles, and accessibility standards. You can build skills in user research, prototyping, and evaluating user experiences across various platforms. Many courses introduce tools like Figma, Sketch, and Adobe XD, that support creating and testing interfaces, along with methods for gathering user feedback and iterating on designs.
