Client: Federation of Independent School Associations of British Columbia

Summary: FISABC is an umbrella organization for independent school groups in British Columbia. Our job was to redesign the site to reflect today's use of technologies so it could serve its members through liaising between the schools and government. This succeeded in assisting independent schools in maintaining their independence, providing accurate and relevant information to parents, and serving as an accurate up-to-date statistics resource for researchers and the media.

Key member groups are parents interested in private education in BC, which led to the integration of Google Map API with school directory. Our graphic design goal was "clean and spacious" with hints of playful colors. The site was a success in reflecting FISABC's commitment as an institution advocating the independence of private independent elementary and secondary schools in BC.

Testimonial: eVIllage Media is an excellent group with which to work with. They listened well to discern our needs, provided helpful advice, gave options for our site, and produced a greatly improved website for us.

Of equal importance was the user-friendly training provided to our staff for in-house updating. The on-going consultation service they provide to us is especially welcome in resolving website issues quickly.
