Green Island Interactive Develop and Deploy New Site for Concordia College–New York
Project includes site, CMS, email campaign management, training, and more.
March 29, 2007

(Bronxville, NY) Founded in 1881, Concordia College is a four-year, co-educational liberal arts college located in Bronxville in suburban Westchester County, New York. The College was in the process of designing a new web site, and was looking for a local firm to help manage deployment of the new site, as well as assistance in the form of consultation, development, training, content management, support, and liaising with all parties involved. After careful consideration of a number of vendors, Green Island Interactive was selected, due in part to the complete package of internet solutions provided and the strategic planning offered, indicating a long-lasting partnership.

The new site had been created by a specialist firm that focuses on web design for Colleges and Universities. The College wanted to work with a local company in terms of deployment and long term support. Due to the large amount of content required, regular communication was required between Green Island and the Concordia team to make sure the site was well organized, and information was easily accessible by current and prospective students, alumni, faculty, and other site visitors.

"I was immediately impressed with John Flanagan's professionalism and ability to see the big picture. We approached him with a very unique situation and he was able to quickly assess our needs and concerns and offer solutions that were tailored to us rather than offering a "one-size-fits-all" product. Green Island's responsiveness, technical knowledge, and troubleshooting have confirmed our decision—I have complete confidence in their ability and feel as though we are all part of the same staff."
Kathryn Meyer, Director of Recruitment Marketing, Concordia College–New York
"We were very excited to be selected to work with a prestigious institution such as Concordia College–New York. The project had tight deadlines from the beginning, but Kathryn Myer and her team were very well prepared and a pleasure to work with. We coordinated deployment activities with the Concordia team and other involved parties, and all activities ran smoothly and to schedule. Concordia is very forward thinking and pro-active in terms of the internet's potential and we look forward to working with them as they roll out new initiatives over the coming months and years."
John Flanagan, CEO, Green Island Interactive

Following the successful installation of the site on the hosting platform and release of the new site, Green Island will continue to assist the school in terms of hosting, training staff on updating the site, and developing a long term strategy for web-based initiatives. A number of large scale e-mail campaigns to alert students and contacts to the new site have already been managed by Green Island, and other communications tools are being put in place for the school.
