WordPress hosting solution for Cheshire West & Chester Council Adult & Community Learning
Cheshire West & Chester Council required a central, publicly accessible platform to store and distribute adult learning services information and resources.
Operating within a provider-based system, their adult learning provision is outsourced to multiple smaller providers, each needing seamless access to essential resources, policies, and procedures. At the same time, learners require up-to-date information about local providers.
