Rapid project delivery.
Completed the primary site development within 12 months, managing the addition of a 125th Anniversary microsite without delaying the overall timeline.
Beacon partnered with Alfred University to deliver a comprehensive website redesign that enhances prospective student engagement and supports enrollment growth. The redesign highlights Alfred's strong arts and engineering programs, including the ways these disciplines integrate through blended academic pathways. Our team handled strategy, UX/UI design, HTML, and Cascade CMS development, transactional builds, testing, and phased content migration. During the project, we also launched a 125th Anniversary microsite to highlight the university's history and fundraising efforts. The result is a modern, scalable website platform that combines timeless design with flexibility to grow alongside the institution.
