Trey helps professionals and organizations think about end users of the street how to incorporate people's experiences into the planning and design process. He works on this for cycling with Bicycle User Experience (BUX) and the Urban Cycling Institute.

What Urban Professionals Have to Say

This course has shown me many different perspectives of cycling I did not consider before. It gives a practical and fresh view on the discipline and helps specially to grab the different perspectives individual cyclist might have on cycling and the city. The methods and exercise helped me to structure ideas I already had or developed through the course. I highly recommend the course to anyone, who wants to develop a more practical and diverse picture on the cyclist and cycling in the city.

This course highlighted relevant methods to evaluate, analyse and improve the cycling experience in cities. It was very accessible and easy to follow, enabling to re-watch and re-visit previous lessons and videos.

PhD in Design at University of Lisbon
Before taking User Experience for Inclusive Cycling in Cities, I had a lot of hunches about the importance of considering cycling experiences for urban planning and promotion. However, I struggled to understand how I could systematically capture experiences in a way that would be creditable and beneficial for myself, the organisations I worked for and for the traveling public. The course gave me the solid tools I was searching for and an understanding of their background and how to apply them. Even if you don't apply them directly, these tools are great to have in the back of your mind when considering cycling in your city as a policymaker, planner, advocate or just someone who likes to ride. I highly recommend this course.

Great to get a sense of BUX with plenty of resource to go deeper in the study

I didn't know much about UX design and i've never heard of UX applied to cycling, the course is clear enough to get a sense of what this is and the advantages of tools and techniques and offers plenty of resources (articles, videos, other course) to further investigate this topic. The structue of the course, with one quiz and exercises after each module allow to track your progess.
