CUAD
Web portal, school management and professional email for the institution and its students.
Background
The Collège Universitaire d'Architecture de Dakar (CUAD) has trained architects, urban planners and designers since 2008, from associate degree to Master's level — four fields of study, a student community drawn from more than a dozen nationalities. The existing site ran on WordPress and could no longer keep pace with the school: programmes, admissions, news, partnerships.
The challenge
“Our students and our partners deserved a site worthy of our programmes, not a WordPress site patched together over the years.”
Our solution
01
Full migration from WordPress to Payload — content, media and structure rebuilt on a durable foundation
02
Portal organised by field of study (Architecture, Urban Planning & Territories, Heritage, Design) with dedicated programme pages
03
Admissions section with an online application form
04
News, events, partners and resources sections for school life
05
Professional email service dedicated to the institution and its students

Impact
