Challenge

USGS needed to make major improvements to RGS, their on-line registration website and student tracking software.

Solution

OJC completely revamped the registration website and administrator back end to allow for the creation of custom registration forms,the storing and sending of e-mails to predefined user groups, the creation of custom reports based on user-specified database queries,
and more. In the process, OJC converted their underlying flat file database to a MySQL database.

Technology
