ICDL is a global social enterprise providing digital training solutions across 20K test centres in 100 countries – awarding 70 million certs to 17 million people. A subsidiary of ICDL, Skillsbox provides specialist tools allowing 3rd party training centres manage students, examinations and certifications across a digital eco-system. Frontend worked with Skillsbox to significantly improve UX across their systems that included 3 key UI’s:
- An Administrator UI that allowed training centres manage students (candidates), classes, module assignment, credit management, student progression & exam session management.
- A invigilators UI that allowed test centre invigilators manage exam day session and attending candidates
- A candidate portal that allowed students to monitor their assigned modules, progress, achievements, etc.

Design solutions were delivered as sprints, allowing Skillsbox internal development team work in parallel with the Frontend’s design team. Frontend provided accessible, standards compliant, modular code that was clearly marked up for easy implementation. Once delivered user support requests reduced dramatically and future development was simplified because of a clear, extensible and extendible design solution.
