Gateshead College has appointed AYO Media to redevelop its corporate website and integrate the new site into the college’s internal network.

The North-East based agency was handed the project by the college’s marketing team following a pitch against several other agencies.

The brief is for the new website to communicate course information accurately and effectively, and incorporate the new look website with the college’s internal databases to ensure it works seamlessly with in-house systems.

Nadine Hudspeth, director of marketing and communications at Gateshead College, said: “Having pitched out the work to several digital agencies, we evaluated our options looking at value for money, track record, references and of course how well we thought we could work with the team.

“As well as being able to deliver our project requirements to a fairly tight timescale and within budget, I was also impressed with their enthusiasm and commitment and feel they will really value our business.”
