Examining the UK's future histopathology talent
Keen to increase the UK's uptake of clinicians into histopathology, NHS Histopathology Training Schools felt it was time to show how forward thinking the speciality is.
Concerned their current website had technical and design issues, NHS Histopathology Training Schools contacted The Site Doctor for a site review outlining issues with the existing design and navigation of the site.
After conducting a review of their existing website, it was clear that their website was not functioning as well as it could or portraying the image they desired. As a training portal designed to encourage signups from potential trainees, the site should appear fresh, exciting and entice the visitor into the world of Histopathology.
With the national histopathology recruitment campaign fast approaching, The Site Doctor was commissioned to redesign the site and design a new logo. The resulting design tied back to the NHS brand identity guidelines (although this was not a requirement) while remaining fun and inviting.
As we were able to deliver a complete CMS within their very tight timescales, we were commissioned to also develop the site for NHS Histopathology Training Schools.
Although not a requirement, the site has also achieved a very prominent search engine position; currently #1 for histopathology training despite having longer established competitors.
Although the time scales were very tight, the new design and CMS was delivered well in time for their January 2009 recruitment campaign.
