FAQs

What kind of design should be used for your E-Learning center website?

The design must be clean and neat. The contents must be quite organized and be in line with the educational environment. The available courses and the subjects of each course must be presented in the most transparent way and easy to understand by users. A messy and complicated design would damage your reputation and doesn’t feel like a professional educational center. Last element we would like to recommend is to have a dynamic design rather than a static design, as the static design doesn’t look like a reputable E-Learning center. Find out more about UI/UX.
