RSMT — website development and maintenance for an educational institution

Rīga State Technical School of Fashion and Style (RSMT) is a vocational education institution that trains specialists in fields such as garment making and styling, photography, visual image design, and hairdressing. The website needs to serve several audiences at once — prospective students after grade 9 and grade 12, current students, and adults interested in further education — so the navigation and content structure are clearly divided according to these needs.

At the heart of the site is a catalogue of professions, split by prior education level (after grade 9 or grade 12), containing detailed information on each profession — qualification level, programme format, duration of studies, class schedule, and an in-depth description of the profession’s content and the skills students will gain. This structured presentation helps prospective students make an informed decision about their educational path.

Beyond informational content, the site integrates several functional systems — a class schedule, an e-learning environment (for students’ coursework), and an online enrolment form for new students. These systems are used daily by both current students and teaching staff, so reliable performance and continuous availability are critical.

The student-focused section also offers practical, educational content — for example, tips on avoiding common mistakes when preparing for exams, with links to additional tools (Uzdevumi.lv) for independent exam preparation.

INCATE handles the technical development of the site, maintenance of the integrated systems, and day-to-day support, allowing the RSMT team to focus on the educational process and communication with students and parents.
