Hello DXIers,

Happy Spring! Before you unplug for the long weekend, we'd like to share a few key announcements and reminders about upcoming events, including...

IBM Enterprise Design Thinking Challenge!

Please join us for this exclusive training with IBM! We will be joined by Peter Swiek, Senior Managing UX Strategist at IBM and GU alum (BSBA, '10).

Peter is an empathy-driven experience architect who will share more about his background in design thinking and teach relevant skills that students can apply to their summer internships and post-MBA careers. Participants will engage in group activities and simulations for a chance to win prizes. Afterwards, all participants will become IBM certified!

FYI: Peter will be hosting a Zoom session this Thursday, April 06 at 12:30 EST to provide critical information and go over event logistics. Yes, it will be recorded and shared afterwards, but we highly encourage all registrants to attend so that you are adequately prepared.
