Local 79 wins Best Design Award for website

03 November 2011

This morning, Local 79 was pleased to accept the Communications Award for ‘Best Website Design’ at the CUPE 2011 National Convention taking place in Vancouver this week.

Local 79’s website was re-developed earlier this year with unionized web-development studio Raised Eyebrow. Local 79’s Communications Representative, Tor Sandberg, and Raised Eyebrow’s Client Manager, Anna Geromes, both led the design of Local 79’s new website.

Based on directions from Local 79’s Executive, the redesign emphasized a streamlined look, social media widgets, an eNewsletter, and recently added a secure ‘Members’ Portal’ in order to give Local 79 members access to personalized and confidential information.

A big thank you to CUPE National for recognizing our communication efforts.

Local 79’s Communication team is made up of Dana Boettger, Jacqui Latter, and Tor Sandberg.
