Third Wave Digital Wins Top Honors for Two Recently Launched Higher EDU Websites

Macon, GA, December 13, 2014 --(PR.com)-- Third Wave Digital’s award winning creative team announces the honor of being awarded the Best In Class Award from the Interactive Media Awards (IMA) for both Mercer Universities Admissions website design and for Georgia Military College’s newly redesigned web presence. The Best In Class award is the highest honor bestowed by the IMA and an extremely challenging award to win. It represents the very best in planning, execution and overall professionalism. In order to win this award level, the 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.

The award was presented to Third Wave Digital (TWD) for the design and development of Mercer University Office of Admissions website www.bethebear.com, in the “University” category and the design and development of Georgia Military College’s completely redesign website http://www.gmc.cc.ga.us/ in the “College” category.

Mercer University’s new admissions website features complete responsive custom designs on every page that boldly conveys what it means to “Be the Bear.” The attention grabbing homepage is designed with the needs of future students in mind, while also conveying the fierce spirit of the Mercer Bears. All of the topics that prospective students are looking for are featured prominently on the homepage with a tiled interface that is enabled for mobile usage in mind. The responsive website layout also gives the Mercer Admissions team the flexibility to switch out imagery as needed to add prominence to a timely event or special feature.

Georgia Military College’s site boasts a completely responsive design, interactive campus map, campus calendar, and a social media hub. All these features are backed by Third Wave’s higher education Content Management System TWD.CMS. Special care was taken by Third Wave Digital to ensure that the experience offered by the responsive homepage was just as impactful on a mobile device as the desktop. The responsive website design takes this information and responds automatically to whatever device the visitor is using, assuring a pleasant experience.

“We are extremely honored to win a University Best In Class award, as well as a College Best In Class IMA award in the same year! This has been a watershed year for Third Wave as we continue to perfect our higher education services to be the very best on a nationwide scale,” Third Wave President Bart Campione said. “At Third Wave Digital we are focused on creating advanced higher education website solutions that represent the most forward thinking responsive solutions available and to be recognized by the IMA’s is proof positive we are doing just that.”
