  Welcome to UPA Boston

The Boston Chapter of the Usability Professionals’ Association is a highly active community for persons with individual and professional interests in usability, user experience design, and their many related fields. Membership is free, and we invite you to take advantage of all the benefits membership has to offer. These include access to job listings, networking opportunities, event notifications, collaboration projects, resume-building activities, and more:

Monthly Meetings

We hold eleven monthly meetings annually in a variety of locations throughout the greater Boston area from downtown to Framingham. Regardless of where you live or work, we’re likely to be within reach sometime during the year! Meetings feature lectures, demonstrations, jobs discussions, tours of host companies’ proprietary labs and more! Members are invited to host and present at monthly meetings.

Quarterly Workshops

Specialized Saturday workshops given by members provide in-depth half- and full-day tutorials on a variety of topics from research techniques to mobile device design.

Annual Conference

Members are invited to submit abstracts to present at our spring conference. Last year’s conference drew 260 attendees, thirty presentations, and a handful of tutorials- all in a single day!

World Usability Day Boston

This annual event held with the Museum of Science, Boston, offers members the opportunity to design activities and educational experiences that introduce usability, accessibility, and design tenets and techniques to museum visitors.

UPA Boston is what you make of it! We invite you to join today to learn from others and to share your vision!
