The client
A specialist professional training provider for accountants and other business professionals.
The brief
To work in partnership with the client's existing marketing and design teams to build a new website based on their visual designs. The main objectives of the website were to promote the company's extensive course programme and allow website visitors to book course places online.
As part of the brief we were asked to provide consultancy on the best choice of content management system (CMS) which would allow internal staff to manage the day-to-day running of the website. Our choice of CMS also had to be compatible with the company's existing course database which we were tasked with migrating to the new website.
The solution
We produced a bespoke responsive website based on the client's initial Photoshop visual designs. We chose to build the website on the Joomla CMS platform as this was the best fit for the company's existing course database and also offered an easy way for the client to manage the website without any prior technical or coding knowledge. Online video tutorials were produced for the client to help them manage the website themselves without the need for costly ongoing support.
As is our standard practice, all data is transmitted via secure internet connection with an SSL certificate. This was essential as personal details are transferred as part of the course booking process. The completed website is hosted on our robust platform with exclusively UK-based web servers, making it simple and straightforward for the client to meet their GDPR compliance requirements.
