CASE STUDY: Belfast Adult Education

2005 - Present

Belfast Adult Education needed a way to maintain their course catalog online. Using Microsoft products including IIS Server, Access database, and VBScript on ASP pages, EON Webware began from scratch to build a clean, simple tool to help the staff keep the Web site up to date.

After logging in, the administrators immediately see all offered courses, with links to view, edit, or delete, and a menu at top for adding new items. If the offerings were extensive, we would make each section hidden and expandable upon clicking a "+/-" button.

Editing is again very simple and clean. Courses are offered year after year, so the database maintains the individual class information in a separate table. All can be seen on one page. Dropdowns pull available options from database tables, to allow them to grow as needed over time.

Current courses are pulled in on the appropriate pages on the public Web site, again using ASP/VBScript. If a course is full or has been cancelled, the administrators need only indicate this on the course's specific class page to have it show up in the public page.
