Cavan Institute has long been a hub of learning, opportunity, and innovation for students across Cavan and beyond. As a centre of further education, it’s essential that their website reflects the same standard of clarity, accessibility, and modernity that they deliver in the classroom.
A Much-Needed Redesign
The previous Cavan Institute website had served its purpose for many years, but as the needs of students, staff, and prospective applicants grew, so did the demand for a more user-friendly and accessible platform. The original site had become difficult to navigate, with key information often buried behind multiple clicks. That’s where Opus Web Design came in.
A New Structure Built for Clarity
We completely restructured the site with a new block-style layout that prioritises usability. The updated design makes it easy for users to find exactly what they’re looking for—whether it's course information, application guidelines, student supports, or campus news. Clean lines, simplified menus, and intuitive pathways guide visitors through the site with ease.
Revamped Course Pages
One of the biggest changes was to the course listings and detail pages. Previously, course info was hard to locate and even harder to digest. Now, each course page is clearly laid out with modules, entry requirements, progression routes, and contact info all easy to find and read—making life easier for prospective students and parents alike.
A Better Experience for Everyone
Whether you're a school leaver exploring your options, a mature student looking to upskill, or a staff member sharing information, the redesigned site delivers a much smoother experience. It's responsive, accessible, and designed with real users in mind.
Ongoing Collaboration
Our work with Cavan Institute didn’t stop at launch. We continue to support their team with ongoing content updates, helping to promote upcoming college events, new course offerings, open days, and more. It’s a collaborative partnership focused on keeping students and staff informed and engaged.
Conclusion
At Opus Web Design, we’re proud to have partnered with Cavan Institute on this redesign. The result is a website that not only looks better but works better—making important information easy to find and giving the Institute a modern digital presence worthy of its reputation.
