Originally, our organization provided psychotherapy services. We have since added more services and we are now a multidisciplinary healthcare clinic. We want to update and revamp our existing website to attract more customers. We would like to work with students to develop a new website that is easy to maintain while providing an appealing interface for users.

This will involve several different steps for the students, including:

·        Researching different site-building tools and their associated advantages/disadvantages.

·        Conducting a needs analysis to determine which platform is most suitable.

·        Building a website, with our assistance in providing the content.

·        Providing training on updating and maintaining the website.

Bonus steps in the process would also include:

·        Testing prototypes with customers and refining ideas with feedback.

What tasks will learners need to complete to achieve the project goal?

By the end of the project, students should demonstrate:

·        Understanding of website platform options

·        Identification of the most suitable platform

·        Development of a website using the most suitable tool

·        Recommendations for website maintenance

Bonus steps would include:

·        Testing the website with users and making improvements based on user input

Final deliverables should include:

·        A website prototype.

·        A final report which includes instructions on how to update the website and a list of all associated passwords

Students will connect directly with us for mentorship throughout the project. We will be able to provide answers to questions such as:

·        Our current products and website design

·        Our customer and industry insights

·        Input on choices, problems or anything else the students might encounter.
