TightPage Content-Managed Site

St Mary’s College is a residential college of The University of Melbourne. The college first opened its door nearly 90 years ago, and is now home to 158 students and 8 tutors during the academic year. St Mary’s enriches its student’s life through academic support, activities (such as sports and social events) and the onsite chapel. Outside the academic calendar, the college is available for conference accommodation.

SMC realised they needed to redevelop their website because they didn’t feel it captured the culture of the college. Secondly, they were concerned that the website didn’t adequately cater to its primary audience: prospective students and potential conference bookings. It was also difficult to communicate effectively through the website because it was not content managed. St Mary’s called on the assistance of Get Started, who also developed their Tutorial Management System, Scribe.

SMC chose Get Started’s feature rich, cost effective content management system, TightPage. The CMS provided all the functionality they required: easy content management, creation of new pages, a photo gallery and much more. Get Started’s professional website design balanced the history of the college with a contemporary feel. The outcome was another first class website by Get Started!
