Join us at the 2019 Inclusiv Conference for an action-packed agenda and unique learning opportunities like our 2-hour Product Development Life Cycle workshop on Tuesday, September 17th. This interactive experience will guide workshop participants through the product development process — from concept ideation through validation to development — to help you gain understanding of the key business and user considerations directly related to the product development process. Participants will articulate a business problem and identify solutions to address and execute on that problem. The workshop is hosted by Tech College at Capital One with speakers Kimberly Parsons, Tech College’s Senior Learning Manager, and Heather Powell, Communication, Design, and Engagement Lead, along with Learning Program Manager, Carey Leahey, and Product, Delivery, and Operations Lead, Justin Noel.
