I took Interaction Design Practicum last year and it was really helpful (I
am a Development Manager with no formal education on HCI or related
disciplines, although I have strong technical background). I had previous
contact with the work from Cooper and that made it much easier to understand
the class topics and relate them to my actual work.
The most important aspect of the class was the way it is explained because
it made easy to tailor to the needs of the company I work for. This was
specially important given that I needed buy-in from upper management in
order to allocate *development* time for interaction design.

I concur with this. I took the course and then had my whole team
attend. I found we were able to able to immediately apply what we
learned. There is no question that the software we designed was better
for our target customers.
