Current Planning:

Practice groups give you shared time to practice via exercises with Indi. Connect and discuss ideas from the course with people from around the world. The practice exercises depend upon you taking the related lessons before attending each practice meeting. (See the FAQ.)

Six weeks. Week 1 starts with Kickoff then Section 1 of self-paced course. Week 2 is Practice Meeting #1 followed by Section 2 of self-paced course. Week 3 is Practice Meeting #2 followed by a week for catching up on videos, exercises, and quizzes. Week 4 is when participants will do Section 3 of the self-paced course. Week 5 starts with Practice Meeting #3, followed by Section 4 of the self-paced course. Week 6 ends with Practice Meeting #4.

FAQ

  • Practice meetings depend upon you already understanding the lessons. You need to learn before you attend a meeting. Usually people take the associated course lessons the week before each practice meeting. And yes, you can take the lessons a couple of weeks or a month before the practice meeting.
  • Already took the course years ago? That’s fine! 😄 You can use the “Already” price. (We will look you up in our records.) And if you want a refresher, you can get six-more-months access for really cheap.
  • For the Listening Deeply Practice Group, you have the option of reading the book Time to Listen instead of taking the course.
  • There are Team discounts available. Or, employees of the same org can form a Private Practice Group of 6-16 people.
  • If your circumstance doesn’t fit any of the four price-levels above, Indi can put you on a waiting list. If the current practice group doesn’t fill up, then Indi will reach out to you if you let her know what you can afford here: Request to be placed on the waiting list.

Refund Policy

Refunds are possible up until 94 hours (4 days) prior to the Practice Group kickoff date.

About the Practice Groups

Each Practice Group is associated with one of Indi’s self-paced courses. The practice groups are intended to provide practical experience to augment the self-paced course materials.

  • Join a Practice Group with Indi and a small group of 8-16 people.
  • We use Mural and Zoom to practice for 2 hours, once a week for 4 sessions.
  • There is a Kickoff session first, and a catch-up week in the middle. (6-week span)
  • Indi guides each practice session. You will get personal feedback from her.
  • The session exercises are different from the exercises that come with the Self-Paced Course.
  • This is how you may qualify for Certification: Practice Group + Self-Paced Course for all courses.
  • 6 months access to Practice Group canvas & recordings

“Most beautiful exercises I’ve seen!”

Testimonials

  • Thank you for sharing your sparkling and kind energy with us. I learned a lot just observing your communication style in the practice sessions. I cannot wait to attend next practice group with you.
    — Alla Seleznova, 9-May-2024
  • I started off as a way to do something refreshing, just have conversations with people and to practice what I’m learning in real life. But I got so much more out of it. Just by trying these practices I learned so much about how to do the deep listening. I don’t think doing just seeing the course alone would have given me this level of enrichment that I got from the live practice on top…

  • Learning how to listen alongside others to talk it over with — what you find, how amazing it is, and what you find out about yourself (and how hard it is – whoa). This practice series experience was all of it.
    — Alex, 28-Nov-2020
  • Really great course with good interaction. Make sure you dont have anything booked during the 4 live classes. I missed a class and watched the backup recording once, which wasn’t quite the same.
    — anonymous, 26-Aug-2019
  • Enroll as soon as a new live practice is open. It is so rich, with so much knowledge to improve not just our work as UX Researchers, but also to use in our own lives as well.
    — Benício Pereira, 8-May-2024
  • I think the associated Practice Group should be mandatory for anyone looking to achieve the certification or even just learn. Practice makes the master, but I would like to say that this kind of practice makes you a great listener.
    — Miguel Baeza, 17-Oct-2023
  • I really enjoyed the dynamics of the practice group meetings and the way Indi brings together people from some many countries who learn together as a knowledge-hungry team. The exercises were extremely helpful, and honestly I did not expect an online experience to be this productive and skill-boosting.
    — Maria Mishchenko, 1-Jul-2020
  • If you really want to understand what listening deeply is and a safe place to practice, take this course and practice group.
    — Francesca Barrientos, 21-Aug-2019
  • Go for it! Definitely bundle it with the self-paced course (or book) for maximum learning.
    — Katherine, May-2024
  • Thank you for the supportive atmosphere at live practice meetings and all your energy.
    — Yulia, Ukraine, 1-Aug-2022
  • Indi’s class allows you to practice research rigor and apply what you learn in a real-world setting. A class like this is hard to come by, where you learn tactical tips to do strategic research right. You walk away learning that questions are a powerful tool of clarity and that the skills you’ve just practiced with Indi will guide you to a deeper understanding of people as people, not users.

    If you don’t know which…

  • Just like the Listening Sessions themselves, Indi created a safe space for learning about each other and ourselves.
