ACHE Message Boards

5) ACHE’s Higher Education Network is a collaborative effort between ACHE and Program Directors designed to provide a valuable on-campus experience for students. Participation in the network entitles designated health administration faculty access to a variety of resources and tools. A dedicated Web area on ache.org is available to support faculty efforts to provide a valuable on-campus student experience. Members of the committee have been given access to this faculty-only area through September 17, 2010. Please click on the link below (log in with your ACHE Username and Password), review the area and please provide suggestions to improve the resources and tools.

I think the information on the website is good but downloading multiple PDFs to get to the detailed information is a little time consuming and can get confusing with the massive amounts of docs these folks accumulate.  Having the info in html and PDF format might increase viewability and access.

Adding new information and resources to this area on a regular basis would greatly increase its utility.  With the current structure I don't see a reason why program directors would log-in again once they obtained the initial information.  It seems like a section with current news/events for them to share with students would help draw people to the site.

A clearer outline of the purpose would be helpful, as well as being better geared to the academic audience.  Having a singular document would also be helpful.
