Learning a new skill takes motivation and time – can busy healthcare professionals be persuaded of the value?

In 2023, a digital education company aimed to develop a website delivering continuing education programs on a rare disease. The project required a designer to quickly orchestrate the website and brand design. The platform needed to support busy healthcare professionals through educational content and assessments, providing a smooth and engaging learning experience.

HMW Question

How might we cultivate and guide learners through a new skillset, given our expedited launch date?

Solution

Use our e-learning expertise to create elevated experience packages that teach relevant, in-demand skills.

As Brand and UI Designer, I expanded the Medical Masterclass initiative into a fully formed website and brand. The challenge was to deliver a wide range of aligned assets that reflected the quality of the educational content and differentiated the programs from other e-learning courses. I designed a comprehensive e-learning site in Figma, commissioned a logo and color palette, managed stakeholder approval, and supported development integration. To ensure consistency across materials, I created a style guide and produced splash pages, email templates, and graphics for both the platform and promotional campaigns.

Part 1: Mid-Fidelity Wireframes 

Drawing on my experience designing e-learning websites, I mapped out necessary pages and flows for the platform, prioritizing an experience that encouraged busy healthcare professionals to engage with and complete educational content.




Part 2: Product Style Management

With a strong brand name and premise already provided, I engaged a talented freelancer to create the logo and color palette while I focused on site designs. I communicated the brand premise, provided guidance, and reviewed iterations. I then shared the three finalists with stakeholders, who approved one for use.




Part 3: High-Performance Marketing Assets

Generative AI solutions:



Stills gathered from the initiative's high-quality educational videos:



Illustrated value with final package mockups:

(To be mailed to users who completed the experience)



Part 4: High-Fidelity Site Designs

For this step, I applied the branding to a robust, high-fidelity mockup in Figma. Working closely with a product owner, I finalized flows, assisted with handoff to development, and supported user acceptance testing.






Part 5: Growth-Oriented Brand Guidelines

With the brand approved and applied to one key part of the project, it was time to share with others. For this task I created a document with brand guidelines and dispersed the final PDF (paired with a folder of assets) to departments like video production, marketing, sales, and graphic design to assist them in generating on-brand materials.




Part 6: Responsive Email Design

Figma is great for email design, so for marketing, I created a set of responsive, developer-friendly email designs in Figma that could hold both custom campaigns and automated, behavior-based messages. I also reviewed and approved the developed builds to ensure they maintained visual and functional consistency.



Part 7: Conversion-Friendly Splash Pages

With the site launched, the final task was to create two on-brand splash pages for further campaigns. These pages visually aligned with the overall brand identity, supported sign-ups, and encouraged engagement with debut courses.
