Find out more about: ICE web project

ICE’s web project was planned in response to increased dissatisfaction with the current site and ICE’s ongoing commitment to its increasing global membership. Considerable progress has been made on the project, and the new website is scheduled to launch in June.



The key to the new website is that it will be personalised for each user. When you sign in to the site it will show you material most relevant to you're personal preferences: be that the region you live in or the topics you are interested in. Each ICE region will have its own landing page:


Regional landing pages feature news and upcoming events relevant to that particular region. Each region will also have its own unique subpages with more information pertaining to events, online communities, regional committees, education, and more.


Regional news and events will be able to appear on regional landing pages as well as on the main ICE news and events sections. This ensures a broad readership while also delivering a regionalised and personalised experience for the user.


Users will also be able to navigate the site by topic:



If the user is currently signed in, the right hand toolbar will filter topics related to his or her individual preferences. In the same way that the ICE regions page will be regionalised to the user’s region, the ICE topics page will be personalised to the user’s interests.



You can find out more about the web project by following our progress on the ICE web project blog http://www.icewebproject.blogspot.com/ You will find updates on the progress of each part of the site as well as profiles of the key team members involved.
