Service Design Training
Service Futures Lab developed a tailiored training programme to upskill the UAL Digital teams in service design methods as well as deliver mindset change that would affect the teams’ ways of working, with the aim to make the way IT services are developed at UAL more responsive and user-centred.
Aims:
Creating a culture shift towards student-first and frontline academic staff focus.
Demonstrating the impact of working in this way, in particular on student experience.
Building capacity and capabilities within existing teams to reimagine the service delivery within a culture shift environment.
Building capacity and capabilities within existing teams to demonstrate the impact of new future student-facing services..
Impact:
Participants are using the service design methodology they learned in the programme while working on new initiatives.
Participants are now more confident in addressing the needs of their users.
Participants are aware that their teams’ work culture has shifted and are welcoming further change.
Participants learned to incorporate service design thinking in their practices, even if they are not designing services directly.
