Wall Street Institute Introduces New Design for its Online Student Community

July 12, 2010

Wall Street Institute has updated the design of its online student community, The Village, offering visitors easier, more intuitive navigation to popular features.

The new design incorporates a cleaner look that uses icons for navigation instead of text, which is helpful for students who are just learning to speak English. Icons direct students to the features they use every day, such as the practice exercises and the new educational Podcasts.

“It is important for our students to be able to quickly find what they need in our student community,” said Simon Buckland, Wall Street Institute’s Director of Curriculum Development. “Learning English can be challenging, and the new look of our student community helps guide our students easily to the places they need to go without relying too much on written copy, thus eliminating some frustration.”

The new look also includes additional features to the “My Village” section of the online community. Students can now link their profiles to their Facebook and Twitter accounts.
