2017-18 Website Awards

Since our founding in 1892 as Norfolk’s first nursing school, Sentara College has always been at the forefront of healthcare education. Over the past year our innovation and forethought extended well beyond the classroom and into the digital space, with a new website that is among the very best anywhere.

We created a digital experience that is customized for users and makes it easy for them to find the information they need quickly, or to drill down when they want to learn more about our college, programs, or courses. The goal is to make every visit to sentara.edu efficient and enjoyable.

So you can imagine our excitement when sentara.edu was rewarded not once or twice, but 10 times since its August 2017 relaunch. Six different judging panels, each with different voting members and criteria for success, looked at this site and selected it for silver, gold, and even “best” honors.

When you consider that Sentara College of Health Sciences has only 500 students, you may be surprised by this news, but we aren’t. The same focus on excellence that drove this success is also what makes us one of the very best educational institutions for healthcare professionals you’ll find. We’d love to prove it to you; plan a visit today.
