Vancouver, BC – Langara College has relaunched its award-winning website www.langara.bc.ca to be responsive on mobile devices.
The new website retains the architecture and design elements of the previous desktop version, but it now automatically scales to fit screens of all sizes and orientations to enhance the user experience on tablets and smartphones.
“This project was undertaken in response to the growing number of people visiting the Langara website using mobile devices,” said Langara’s Director of Communications and Marketing Lisa Fisher. “We knew that the number was only going to keep growing, and we wanted to give our mobile visitors a great-looking and easy to use site. We’re very pleased with the result.”
The site design was informed by a review of competitor websites, web analytics, and research with current Langara students and staff. The College’s Communications and Marketing Services and Information Technology teams completed the project in eight months.
