Successful design requires a real understanding of people—our capabilities, how we perform, and our limits. Much of this revolves around our cognition, the mental processes behind how we think and act. A foundational understanding of cognitive science is therefore crucial for UX professionals. Simply put, you can't create truly usable and successful products without understanding what makes us tick.

Instead, you'll gain practical knowledge that will elevate your work and enhance your communication with stakeholders.

Error messages are essential to create a successful user experience (UX). They guide users, offer instant feedback, and prevent mishaps. Friendly and informative, they build trust and empower users while ensuring inclusivity and satisfaction. However, many error messages fall short, being too generic or technical, and lead to frustration rather than assistance.
How can we design better error messages UX? How do we display errors in data tables? Where do we place them?
In this one-hour Master Class webinar with Vitaly Friedman, a UX Lead working with the European Parliament and the Founder of Smashing Magazine, you'll delve into error message UX details, covering form layout, live validation, disabled buttons, compatibility, and crafting effective error messages. You'll also learn techniques to improve error recovery rates and proactively minimize errors.
