GS Water
Water and wastewater consultants, and EUSR-approved training providers
A new website that lets companies across the UK find, book and pay for water training courses themselves.
Visit websiteGS Water is a water and wastewater consultancy and an EUSR-approved training provider, working with clients across the UK and into Europe. The company was founded by Managing Director Glen Stock, who spent over 30 years in the water industry before setting it up, and it delivers accredited courses covering everything from National Water Hygiene to the full SHEA suite.
Their customers are anyone whose work brings them near water or a restricted operational site: plant and pump hire firms, construction and civil engineering contractors, pipe installers and Fire and Rescue Services.
Challenge
GS Water approached us with a vision: to create an online platform that would allow UK companies to purchase water training courses with ease. They needed a professional WordPress website that could handle bookings, process payments securely, and deliver a seamless user experience across all devices.
The Approach
The people booking these courses are rarely sitting at a desk. They’re site managers, supervisors and training coordinators, often working out of a van with a phone in one hand – so we started from the phone screen and worked up, rather than designing for a monitor and squeezing it down afterwards.
The second thing that shaped the build was who has to run it afterwards. GS Water were always going to add courses, change dates and adjust prices, and none of that should mean coming back to us and waiting. That’s why we built on WordPress and WooCommerce: both are well established, both are straightforward for a small team to pick up, and the course catalogue stays in GS Water’s hands.
Beyond that, the job was to remove friction. Accredited training is a considered purchase – a buyer wants to know the scheme, what it covers and who it’s for before they commit – so each course page carries that detail plainly, and the route from reading about a course to paying for it is as short as we could make it.
Solution
We designed and developed a mobile-responsive WordPress website tailored to GS Water’s needs. Using WooCommerce, we built an e-commerce solution that enabled users to browse, book, and pay for water training courses effortlessly. The site was carefully optimised for intuitive navigation, ensuring a smooth booking process from start to finish.
To cater to a wide audience, the website was designed to perform seamlessly across desktops, tablets, and smartphones, offering accessibility and convenience for busy professionals.
Results
The new WordPress website provided GS Water with a powerful platform to sell their training courses online. The integration of WooCommerce allowed for secure payment processing and a streamlined booking system, improving customer satisfaction and operational efficiency.
With this digital transformation, GS Water is now positioned as a leader in delivering accessible water training solutions to businesses across the UK.
