Our website wins at the Australian Web Awards

Published on 10 November 2015

Our new website, unveiled on June 29 after a mammoth redesign and content rewrite, has picked up two national trophies at the Australian Web Awards.

Together with our partners at Webplace, we won the national award for best government website, and also the McFarlane Prize for best overall website from a field of 178 private and government entrants.

The awards are a fantastic endorsement of our new site, which focuses on best practice in user experience, easy-to-understand content for our customers and enhanced accessibility.

The judging panel’s comments praised our use of big, bold text and useful resources such as simple calculators and how-to videos.

“This website is an amazing transformation from the old SRO website…. the usability is excellent. Great job,” the panel noted.
