Students attending the London Project Center (LPC) struggle to prepare for their IQP trip due to a lack of easily accessible information. We surveyed students and interviewed center directors, Global Experience Office staff, and representatives of the Association of International Educators and Forum on Education Abroad, to identify what information students need and how best to provide it. We created a website to more effectively address these informational needs before and during the IQP experience. Additionally, we made a promotional video for the LPC to use in cultivating project hosts. We recommend how the LPC director and GEO staff can improve the existing sources of information and methods of dissemination, and how to maintain and update the SharePoint website.
