Challenge

The PHSRC website fails to give clear information on the topic of volunteering and where to start the search process. The aim was to restructure the webpage to give current info so that health students can confidently seek out volunteer and shadowing positions.

Solution

The webpage features a diagram that walks through the volunteer seeking experience from start to finish, with an emphasis on how to overcome common obstacles. The visual and written language was designed for students to feel confident in participating and benefiting from the professional experience.
