Hi Steve, et al.,
I wanted to let you know that Education is one of the areas that IxDA
is presently targeting with a team of volunteers.
Jeremy Yuille is presently heading up the effort on behalf of the
IxDA Board, and there are a couple dozen IxDA members who are
contributing. One of the
Heya,
Thanks to @mediajunkie, I just read a good article on education from
a web designer perspective. It mentions IxDA's efforts as well as a
variety of other organizations. See:

In keeping with the theme of my previous post and
I'm in India right now and I have the option of studying in Dubai.
Its actually easier for me to study in Dubai however there are very
few HCI courses and industrial design courses (if any) much less any
courses related to ixd in Dubai so I've focused on looking at
schools in the India region.
Taking on your original problem, what is wrong w/ National Institute
of Design (NID) in India. They have industrial design and from what
I've heard from others here some serious interest in IxD? I'm sure
there might be some visa issues you are alluding to that makes Dubai
better, but Dubai has no
Hi Dave,
I find the Bauhaus model quite interesting for solo or small team
projects.
I'll re-consider NID's post graduate program.

@live I had in mind that members of the main board (and those who have
more weight in the business world) could shortlist design schools and
courses at least initially.
Possibly a supplementary board/band of ixda members who have
experience with developing academic materials could evaluate
Steve, what is unclear is the list of schools you looked at. You
seemed to mention a geographic constraint as well. There are so few
IxD programs that of course geography is going to be an issue and
many programs are just sub-par in general, but there are GREAT

There's a generally recognized certification process for IxD? Really?
Not sure I like that idea...No, actually I'm sure I don't like that

What are you proposing to be the basis for the certification?
