Testimonials

" Had a fabulous experience undertaking the Service Design Practitioner course with the Service Design Network. I thought the sessions were very well organised and full of interesting information, case studies and tools. I enjoyed working within my assignment team, using our learnings as we went through the process which really helped me to understand how I would use this methodology in my work. " Service Design Practitioner Curriculum, Course Participant, May 2022 

This course opened up my eyes to service design thinking and the different ways to apply it. Service design thinking is not just for service designers! I'm excited to take away what I have learnt and apply it to my role to take the way I work to the next level! " Service Design Practitioner Curriculum, Course Participant, Feb 2022
