Chances are, you spend some time on the internet every day. Perhaps you've come across a website you really like, or maybe a website you didn't like very much. Maybe you've toyed with the idea of creating your own website! If you are interested in learning more about what goes in to creating and maintaining a website, the AWC Web Editor is looking for an assistant (or two). This is a great opportunity for those looking to learn and this skill looks great on your CV!
What is required?
- A few hours every month or every other month for in-person training (this is just for the initial introduction to the process)
- A couple hours each month for writing/editing for the website
- A willingness to read instructional documentation, books, etc.
- A computer with a good internet connection (a laptop is best, but not necessary)
- A PDF reader (like Acrobat or FoxIt)
- An attention to detail and security of information
If you are interested in learning new things while also helping out the club, consider becoming the AWC Web Editor assistant! Contact Web Editor, Sherry, at
