Project scope
What is the main goal for this project?

The main goal for this project is to explore innovative and fresh UI and UX ideas for the current website of Cross-Checks Background Reporting Inc., which was made using WordPress but is not yet complete. The aim is to enhance user experience and provide a robust background reporting solution for clients, ultimately helping them mitigate risk and meet their obligation to due care.


This will involve several different steps for the learners, including:


  • Conducting background research on our existing web application for the product. We are happy to provide a walkthrough and other resources to help bring them up to speed.
  • Identifying key areas of our current website and what areas of focused might return the best results in design changes.
  • Learning and using various software design tools. We strongly recommend students learn how to use Figma as this is the latest and greatest tool currently available.
  • Creation of a screen-by-screen UX / UI prototype of a web application which can be used on all major browsers and be mobile friendly.
  • Conducting UX / UI testing with real potential users potentially involving software tools to support this.


What tasks will learners need to complete to achieve the project goal?


By the end of the project, learners should complete the following tasks:

  • Familiarize themselves with our existing website and products
  • Familiarize themselves with a design tool of their choosing and understand how it works. We strongly recommend Figma.
  • Design and build inside of the design tool all the needed screens for a redesigned prototype of our product
  • Present the final design screens to us with the context of all their choices they made, problems they encountered, and next steps they recommend.


Final deliverables should include:


  • A detailed report outlining the design process, user feedback, and proposed improvements.
  • High-fidelity prototype designs for the website.
  • A presentation as stated above of the final designs



How will you support learners in completing the project?

Students will connect directly with us for mentorship throughout the project. We will be able to provide answers to questions such as:

  • Current product understanding
  • Any sort of branding or styling advice
  • Input on choices, problems or anything else the students might encounter
