CVO groep

One central website for six schools

The CVO groep is a school group consisting of six schools with an overarching central office for these schools. Get Interactive has provided new websites for several of these schools, including the CVO Groep website itself. Marion from CVO Groep tells you more!

The challenge of CVO Groep

The CVO groep website was due for something new. The website wasn't responsive, the navigation left much to be desired, and maintaining the website was complicated. Additionally, CVO groep wanted to stimulate the use of the intranet.

Marion: "We used a mandatory content management system, which was really a nightmare. It was too rigid and we couldn't change much, something else had to come."

CVO groep approached us to think along for a redesign of the current website and associated intranet. A brand identity already existed, but there was plenty to improve. Together we got to work to bring the website completely up-to-date and simplify maintenance.

Our approach

We got to work with a redesign of the current website, taking into account the request to make it user-friendly for both staff and visitors. For example, we arranged a connection with Azure AD, which ensured that internal employee accounts were automatically linked to the website.

This was immediately useful for the intranet; staff can now use the internet from outside the location via the cloud. By logging into the website, employees now have direct access to all relevant information and documents.

We're very happy with the design and improvements to the intranet. It's now much easier to find documents.

Intranet

Internal environment

By logging into the website, staff gain access to the intranet section, with useful documents and information. This information is also available from home this way.

Booking module

Reserve a room

Through the intranet, it's possible for staff to reserve a meeting room themselves. Previously, this had to be discussed first and then manually scheduled.

SSO (Single Sign-On)

Connection with Azure AD

By making a connection between current internal accounts and the website, it's not necessary for employees to create a separate WordPress account. Besides ease of use, this also ensures that administration, for example when staff leave, can easily adjust permissions.

review

CVO Groep about the collaboration

The CVO groep website is now a few years old, and in the meantime, quite a few changes have taken place.

Marion: "The logo was originally made for 4 schools, but now there are 6. So we could use a new brand identity. I also expect that we'll call on you again in the future for a branding project."

"The collaboration was very pleasant and we're very satisfied with the website. Communication was easy and accessible, you understand exactly what we mean. It was also always possible to ask questions and you thought along well. If something didn't work quite right, it was always just quickly resolved. I've also heartily recommended you before."
