objectives

Priority Focus Areas Prominent
From professional development workshops to sector initiatives the ECEBC website houses significant amounts of information for early years professionals, their supporters and the public. It was imperative to ensure that the essence of who ECEBC is, what they do and what is available to members was not lost and prominently available to website visitors.
Professional Design While Reflecting the Early Years
A key objective of the design was to include some whimsical elements to be reflective of the young audience the early years sector serves while still providing a professional feel to remain true to the skilled and talented early years professionals ECEBC represents.
Adaptable to changing content
The website is constantly changing with updates on sector initiatives, professional development opportunities, job postings and more. It was important that it was structured and adaptable to grow with the ever changing content.

Historical Timeline
The prominent challenges and milestones in ECEBC's 50+ year history of representing and advancing the quality and professionalism of early care and learning is displayed in a timeline format which is clear to view and easy to update.
Clear Navigation & Entry Points.
Visitors are presented with a clear navigation structure to access the 200+ pages of the website without being overwhelmed. It was important to ensure connections between different areas of the website were made where appropriate to allow people to access relevant information.
Membership benefits, registration or renewal
View membership benefits in a fun, interactive way on the homepage and then view categories and become a member or renew online.
Job Postings
Employers can submit & pay for job postings online. Once approved the posting page is automatically created from the submission to be efficient for administrators. Job postings also include structured data to support inclusion in Google's rich search results.

ECEBC hired Triple I Web Solutions in 2019 to build our new website. Nikki and Dan were fantastic to work with. They listened intently to what we needed and wanted and reflected this back to us in plain language. They then mapped out a new design, including ensuring all information was either mapped/migrated onto the new site, or intentionally archived. This was handled with the utmost attention to detail. Nikki and Dan also ensured that the look and feel of the website was customized to our audience and helped us make functional decisions in line with best practices. The entire process was managed in a timely and respectful manner.
In addition to the creation of the new site, Nikki and Dan have supported its maintenance. They think alongside us, ensuring that not only our requests are fulfilled, but making suggestions that may better meet our actual needs. These suggestions are always gentle and thoughtful.
It continues to be a pleasure to work with Triple I and we recommend them without hesitation.
