In this instructor-led, live workshop held in Bhutan (online or onsite), participants will learn how to apply the five stages of Design Thinking to better understand the problems experienced by end-users of a product or service, then develop the best approach for resolving them.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Use creative strategies to match customers' needs with technologically feasible solutions.
• Formulate a strategy to increase customer value and enhance product and service offerings.

Overview:

The Design Thinking (DT) process comprises five distinct stages: empathize, define the problem, ideate, prototype, and test.

In an increasingly complex world, we often encounter problems that require specialized approaches. Design Thinking serves as a vital tool for navigating such complexity. By mastering design thinking, individuals can address complex issues more effectively, enhance their communication and persuasion skills, improve business outcomes, and elevate both organizational and personal behavior and performance.

• Understanding DT: Learning from people and the problem at hand, identifying patterns, designing a model (including model drift), testing the model, evaluating it, and re-engineering as necessary.
• The interplay between DT, innovation, and entrepreneurship.
• DT methods and tools: including personas, stakeholder maps, customer journey maps, service blueprints, and business model innovation.
• Application of DT: cultivating a design mindset, driving disruptive innovation, adopting an iterative approach, using agile estimation techniques, critical thinking, problem solving, teamwork, leadership readiness, communication skills, technological savviness, forward thinking, intercultural and ethical competency, emotional intelligence, self-awareness, negotiating skills, and conflict resolution.

Objectives:

• To grasp the fundamentals and nuances of DT.
• To explore key concepts, factors, theories, types, and models within DT.
• To experiment with, experience, and practice DT.

Delivery:

This one-day (4-hour) training course is structured as follows:

• Lectures (40%): Presentation of theories, concepts, models, and interactive discussions.
• Group exercises (30%): Activities involving group dynamics, games, group discussions, and mock conflict resolution.
• Individual activities (15%): Tasks such as writing, designing, and peer discussions.
• Other components (15%): Videos and reading materials.

Note: Due to the interactive nature of this course, there is a minimum group size requirement of 3 participants.

This live, instructor-led training, available online or on-site, is tailored for beginner to intermediate PCB designers and electronics engineers aiming to build a complete and controlled PCB design workflow using Altium Designer.

Participants will work on a single, interconnected project, progressing from initial project setup and library management through schematic capture, PCB layout, and verification, to the final manufacturing outputs and controlled production release.

By the end of the training, participants will be able to:

• Create and manage structured PCB projects in Altium Designer.

• Develop and validate schematic designs and component libraries.

• Configure PCB rules, routing parameters, DRC, and manufacturing constraints.

• Generate and verify fabrication, assembly, and mechanical outputs.

• Apply practical high-speed design constraints.

• Manage engineering changes and controlled re-releases.
