Enabling AGBIS to migrate content, events listings & resources
The Association of Governing Bodies of independent schools (AGBIS) supports and advises governing bodies of schools in the independent sector on all aspects of governance, under the umbrella of the Independent Schools Council.
Schools join AGBIS at a school level with clerks and bursars managing the administration of governing boards. Governors need easy access to the latest regulatory advice and network events.
The Challenge
AGBIS had an outdated website and a CRM that was no longer fit for purpose.
Clerks at independent schools often manage the business of governing boards for multiple schools. They need to easily book governors onto events, share confidential information and manage meetings.
The association required a platform which would give member organisations and their administrators the tools to manage their business and share the latest guidance on school governance.
A new simple solution was required urgently. This challenge was complicated by the fact that AGBIS was undergoing significant organisational change at the same time.
Enter ReadyMembership.
The project
AGBIS’s new membership platform contains a wealth of useful features - available out of the box. The benefits for member schools, their administrators and AGBIS are clear:
The result
AGBIS’s new website and membership management platform has improved communication with members and given their schools the ability to run their governing school bodies. AGBIS said:
We are already seeing enormous benefit with our members able to login and book their governors onto our event and access member resources. The system is very intuitive and easy to use. We have received positive feedback from members about the ‘look’ and ‘feel’ of the system.
