Project description: Migrating the complete HelpArgentina Website to a content management system. 2. Objectives: a. Increased usability (for both visitors and staff), improved content structure, cleaner design. b. Coherent tools and user/permission based workflows for site operation, maintenance, and extension. Users may be both Help staff and member organization representatives (Extranet, distributes site content publishing). c. Complete and dynamic multi-language capacity The intern would be involved in the requirement collection from the stakeholders (though much of that would already be completed upon arrival to save time), help with the drawing up of the functional requirement specification, evaluate the CMS options and write the technical requirement document, implement the project (CMS setup, extension coding as necessary, porting of existing php-based functional modules, content migration, and ideally some graphic design of the CMS based new site, testing and QA, and project documentation and preparation of staff training.) 3. Challenges: a. Complexity: The site is complex, uses many administrator functions, database management, custom processes. It has grown from being a simple, design-focused institutional website to a major, mission critical work tool, incorporating many processes online. However, this expansion has come in fits and starts, using various different volunteers with different levels of experience, many of whom are not available anymore for additional work or even comments. Hence, the site is hard to maintain, functionality is often not documented, original modules have been modified without maintaining consistency in methodology and design. There also is a lot data junk on the server that nobody knows whether it is still needed. b. Design and Usability: The original design was not meant for growth. Because the site navigation and content structure has not scaled, important info is not easily found, is hidden in some link somewhere not necessaril intuitively placed, the visitor gets lost on the site, etc. On the staff side, there are various important tools that do not talk to each other, and incoherent in their usage, etc. The existing site admin does not cover many of the relevant and quickly changing site parts, e.g. the news section is manually updated using Dreamweaver, etc 4. What is the length of the project? 2-3 months, full time 5. Language skills required/desired: / Idiomas requeridos/preferidos? English, Spanish basics would be helpful 6. Technical Skills required/desired: a. Excellent skills in php, MySQL database, and advanced Website design b. Experience in content management implementations, open source systems like Mambo CMS or Drupal preferred as there is no budget for commercial software c. Graphic design experience would be helpful (for the new site's layout) d. Well developed documentation skills 7. General Skills required/desired: Capacidades generales requeridas/preferidas? a. careful and methodical professional b. works well in a multicultural team environment c. sympathy and interest for the HelpArgentina mission and the social sector in Argentina 8. What responsibilities, if any, will the student have prior to and after the placement? a. it would be helpful is the student could commit some time evaluating the website prior to starting the project, so as to jump-start everything b. after the implementation, it would be helpful if the student was available for at least comments and assistance to other programmers and users, ideally he would occasionally be available for some site tweaks or extensions 9. What will the long term impact of the student's contribution be? (How is this project capacity-building?): The new website will be a major factor in facilitating HelpArgentina's institutional growth. It is a crucial tool for all it's stakeholders, staff, member NGOs, donors etc 10. Who is the primary contact for the project? HelpArgentina CTO - Ingo Boltz 11. Who will be supervising the students work? HelpArgentina CTO - Ingo Boltz 12. What kind of accomodations are available to the student? (Does your organization have the ability to arrange housing?) We can assist the student in looking for affordable housing. We may be able to offer (but can not garauntee at this time) free/low-cost housing, such as an extra room in a staff member's house. 13. Can your organization provide any funding or other support for a student? Unfortunately, we can not provide financial support for the student.
