Results of In-Housing
 Observed that some of the testers had difficulty
finding the answers to the more detailed questions
 Example of one scenario
 “You are interested in a Nursing position and about to
graduate high school, but you do not know which university to
apply to that would be the best for Nursing. Does the website
provide you with this information? If so, where would you find
it?”
Changes to Website
 In order to have a user friendly and easy to find
information website, we plan on:
 Adding a search box
 Changing confusing headings, for example “training” under the
heading ‘About’ can be changed to “Programs”.
 Clarifying confusing texts.
 Have a “Frequently Asked Questions” page
 Keeping the website up to date
