Third Wave Digital’s creative team has yet another honor bestowed upon them for their creative services in the higher education market.   A 2015 Best In Class win from the Interactive Media Awards in the category College for Rosemont College and Dalton State College. 

Both colleges wanted nothing less than the best when it came to the redesign of their website.  Rosemont College’s tagline is “the power of small” but they knew the importance of thinking big regarding their EDU website development.  Concise information architecture, award winning design and a powerful CMS is exactly what they received from the creative team at Third Wave Digital.  The award winning site http://rosemont.edu/, also boasts a responsive design, an interactive map, and the Content Management System, OmniUpdate. 

Georgia’s own Dalton State College wanted the Cadillac of websites as well and Third Wave Digital delivered a first class website with many bells and whistles.  Their exceptional site, https://www.daltonstate.edu  showcases responsive design, an interactive map, campus calendar, student videos and an admissions resource center.  All of these features are backed by Third Wave’s higher education Content Management System TWD.CMS and the site is securely hosted by TWD Host.  

The Best in Class award is the highest honor bestowed by the Interactive Media Awards, recognizing outstanding achievement in interactive design and development once a year. To receive the Best in Class award, entered websites must excel in all areas of judging criteria and represent a very high standard of planning, execution and overall professionalism. This year’s competition featured sixty-five entries and each was judged on design, content, feature functionality, usability, standards compliance and cross-browser compatibility.

The competition is designed to elevate the standards of excellence on the Internet and offer winners a boost in marketing and exposure. In order to win this award level, sites had to successfully pass through a comprehensive judging process, achieving very high marks in each of the judging criteria - an achievement only a fraction of sites in the IMA competition earn each year.  

This is the 6th IMA “Best In Class” award that Third Wave Digital has won for higher education website design.  You can visit Third Wave Digitals new campus tours website http://twdcampustours.com/to see the breadth of our portfolio in the higher education market.
