24th - 26th June 2025 - CPUX-User Testing Training Course & Examination

Created in association with the International Usability and UX Qualification Board, this professional 2.5-day UX certification programme covers usability evaluation methods and theories – in particular, usability testing. It is independently assessed/certified by Certible.

Bunnyfoot were the pioneers and are now one of the leading providers of the Certified Practitioner of User Experience Course (CPUX) in the United Kingdom.

Please note: To take the CPUX-User Testing course, you must have passed the CPUX-Foundation exam.

CPUX (Certified Professional for Usability and User Experience) is an international standard for qualification of individuals who are professionally involved in developing or ensuring the usability or user experience of products.

CPUX-UT (CPUX-Usability Testing) is an advanced module which focuses on the preparation, moderation, and analysis of usability tests and builds on the foundational CPUX-F course. 50% of the course will be spent on practical exercises like writing test tasks, moderation, and communicating usability test results.

What are the UXQB and CPUX?

The International Usability and User Experience Qualification Board (UXQB) is a consortium of internationally recognised experts in usability and user

experience. UXQB’s objective is to develop, maintain and manage the certification program (CPUX: Certified Professional for Usability and User Experience).

CPUX is an international standard for qualification of people working professionally within UX. So far professional UX-organizations in six European countries have joined UXQB: Germany, Switzerland, Austria, England, Holland and Denmark.

CPUX-F, Certified Professional for Usability and User Experience – Foundation Level, is the basic UX certification and foundation for more advanced certifications in usability testing (CPUX-UT), user requirements engineering (CPUX-UR); interaction specification, information architecture and prototyping (CPUX-IIP), and usability engineering (CPUX-UE).
