The world of special education requires dedicated attention, specialized tools, and a deep understanding of unique learning needs. N2Y has been at the forefront of this domain, providing a comprehensive suite of special education software, curriculum, and learning tools.
With a belief that everyone can learn, N2Y has served as the nation’s leading solution for special education. Their commitment extends beyond the classroom, touching the lives of educators, service providers, families, and, most importantly, the students they serve.
However, even the pioneers of an industry face challenges that need to be addressed to maintain their leadership position.
The Dual Challenge
Recognizing the pressing need for digital evolution, N2Y approached Seahawk to rejuvenate its online platform. Their vast experience and extensive offerings conveyed the urgency for a substantial overhaul. Their challenges were twofold:
- Content Expansion: The evolving needs of the special education community necessitated N2Y’s expansion of its digital content, requiring the addition of more pages and microsites to its existing website.
- Technological Upgradation: As technology advanced, N2Y’s platform began to show signs of age. Their site operated on outdated versions of SQL, PHP, WordPress, and several plugins. This lag impacted the website’s performance, security, and ability to deliver N2Y’s rich content effectively.
Our Approach
Recognizing the gravity of these challenges and the immense responsibility N2Y bears in the special education realm, our team has formulated a cohesive strategy to address both issues.
Content Augmentation
Collaborating closely with N2Y’s content creators, we undertook custom development, adding meticulously designed pages and microsites that reflected N2Y’s commitment to quality education.
Each addition was carefully crafted to ensure seamless integration with the existing website, while also offering a streamlined user experience.
Technological Modernization
Recognizing the technological shortcomings, we embarked on an extensive overhaul. By accessing N2Y’s hosting environment, our team updated all technical aspects, transitioning the website to the latest versions of SQL, PHP, WordPress, and essential plugins. To ensure a smooth transition, our team executed rigorous tests on a test environment before deploying changes to the live site.
