HOME/TOP NAVIGATION

(Deems) Overall comment - this looks good!
(Deems) We’re “wasting” a lot of valuable space on the home page with the image and a single “Get Started” box. Can we shrink that and display the text below the image more prominently?
There’s also a lot of wasted space in the white box next to the NSF/ACCESS logos
Since there’s now a “News” button on the navigation bar, maybe we should scrap listing the news at the bottom of the page.
(Deems) the “Find Information for You” section shouldn’t be buried at the bottom. Consider moving this just below the first 2 paragraphs of text.
(Deems) the videos at the bottom have strikingly low views (under 200 for each). Can we put these in another place?

(Deems) Meta Comment about Personas: Instead of “I’m a…” consider rephrasing to “For…” (e.g. “For Researchers”, “For Graduate Students”, “For Educators”
this would play off nicely with “ACCESS For…(insert persona)”
(Deems) The “What’s next?” section looks a little funky in boxes. Can we make these a list with drop-downs for more information?
I think my general comment is: “there’s a lot of info in this page, and we might be able to organize better.”
FOR RESEARCHERS

(Deems) Considering adding “available through ACCESS” to the opening sentence: “Computational researchers of all experience levels use advanced computational resources available through ACCESS to take their research to the next level.
FOR EDUCATORS

FOR GRADUATE STUDENTS

(Deems) Please remove this sentence: ; “NSF Graduate Fellows are eligible PIs for small-scale awards.”
We’ll be modifying this policy so that all graduate students are equal.
FOR RESOURCE PROVIDERS

(Deems) Insert links to the Integration Roadmaps documentation?
FOR PROGRAMS & ORGANIZATIONS

(Deems) Insert quick link for “Promote your events and news…” with a link to the Support team’s functionality
(Deems) Remove “Eligibility” from the quick links.
BECOME A RESOURCE PROVIDER

Add comment here…
(Deems) rephrase this → “the expertise of data experts” to “and their expertise” (not sure why it’s limited to “data experts”…)
(Deems) “What are the qualifications to become an RP?” is blank
I’m really interested in reading that section
(Deems) instead of “See which institutions and organizations are currently participating in the ACCESS program.” with a link, consider saying “Scroll down to see which institutions and organizations…”

(Deems) general comment, I don’t see this linked from the landing page. I see it linked from the “About” page.
(Deems) this first paragraph needs proofread and word-smithed:
“Being a part of ACCESS will give you a unique experience, allow you the opportunity to network with other researchers, and give you the chance to discover valuable insights on how to get your research project rolling.”
We should lead with an overview of the ways people can get involved rather than very generic text about unique experiences.
