I found the Postgraduate Certificate in Ergonomics to be a well-structured and informative course. The instructors were knowledgeable and responsive, and the online discussions were a great way to connect with fellow students from diverse backgrounds. One of the most valuable takeaways for me was learning about the importance of cognitive load management in user interface design. The course materials provided plenty of examples and templates to work with, which was helpful for applying the concepts to real-world scenarios. While some of the assignments were a bit challenging, I appreciated the feedback from the instructors and felt that it really helped me improve my understanding of the subject matter.
