At Go1, we take pride in providing our users with the best possible learning experience, and we’re always looking for new ways to improve. We started our Experience Research Program last year to gather feedback directly from our customers and partners, and that feedback is already helping us enhance our product.  

We’re so grateful to everyone who has participated in the research program so far. If you haven’t participated yet, we would love for you to do so! Past participants have shared valuable insights that have helped us better understand their experiences, and we’ll be sharing more results from those studies soon. 

We want to learn from your learners 

As we enter the next phase of the research program, we would now like to invite your learners to join! As regular Go1 users, learners can provide us with a new perspective on what’s working and what isn’t so we can continue to create a better experience for everyone.

FAQs

What is the Go1 Experience Research Program? 

What do L&D managers need to develop engaging courses for their learners? How do learners engage with learning at work and what can we do to support their engagement? What are the most significant moments of delight and challenge in an L&D leader’s role? How can we ensure navigating learning content is intuitive and efficient?  

Go1 UX researchers, product managers, and product designers want to answer all these questions and more. We love learning, and we want to learn from you and your learners to improve your Go1 experience. 

What's in it for you? 

  • Invitations to research studies, paid and unpaid.

What type of research do we do? 

User interviews 


We’ll share the topic we’re studying with you before the interview. During the interview, you’ll talk to a small group of Go1 team members. We’ll cover questions related to your experience with Go1 offerings and the challenges you face in your role. 
 
Concept testing 


During a concept test, we’ll share different design images and concepts and ask you questions that relate to how you might use, navigate, and make sense of these. This can include activities like card sorting to understand how you think through different tasks and themes. 
 
Usability testing 


Usability testing involves asking you to complete several short tasks using Go1 products or prototypes. We’ll ask you to think aloud so that we understand what you are thinking and feeling while completing the job. We’ll always remind you before the session that we are testing the design, not you. 
 
Surveys 


We regularly send out surveys that help us measure and learn more about your experience with Go1 products and services. We use the results of these surveys to make design and product decisions.
