Alumni First Design Strategy
An inclusive design initiative for all of our alumni
- We want to think of how to make digital products that are easy to use for:
- Our oldest alumni
- Our youngest alumni
- Alumni at different career levels
- Alumni with visible and less visible disabilities
- Alumni with large monitors and small tablets.
- Alumni with 5G devices and with a 5G iPhone
- Alumni diverse in race, gender expression, abilities, and more
- Alumni grads from outside of the Philadelphia campus.
Surveys and Usability Studies
Every time an alumni answers a survey we learn the what, where, who, when, and how
- How our alumni are struggling to use the alumni website
- Who do we have an opportunity to provide a better website experience
- What our alumni are most interested in on our websites
- When in our alumni’s careers do they need specific resources
- Where on our websites we can make improvements for alumni and our partners
Fiscal Year 2023 & 2024 User Experience and Design Goals
