Increasing Access to Higher Education for Early Childhood Educators

Challenge

EDvance College, a new national institution focused on Early Childhood Education (ECE), needed a website that could support its accreditation process while evolving with the college as it grew. The site had to be flexible, adapting to new needs as EDvance expanded its programs and partnerships. In time it developed into a central hub for students, educators, and partners. Given EDvance’s mission to remove barriers for historically underrepresented educators through bilingual coursework, flexible schedules, and strong support systems, the design prioritized both engagement and accessibility.

Project Outcome

The website design embraced bright, vibrant colors and elementary shapes, drawn from the existing brand developed in previous projects. Clear navigation and intuitive menus ensured accessibility for all users. Real student images reinforced EDvance’s community-driven mission.

To support the diverse student body, the site included language options in Spanish and Chinese. A built-in CMS allowed easy content management for events, curriculum updates, blogs, and job postings. The site also met accreditation requirements by integrating policies, student handbooks, and compliance resources. EDvance earned national accreditation and is now a recognized leader in early childhood education.
