and expertise to be your

With a location in the Baltimore-Washington area, the epicenter of associations, Accella has a strong portfolio of association clients.
Accella understands the challenges faced by associations, and has the tools to overcome them. Whether it is member outreach, digital tools for members, or a communication platform for PR related activities, Accella has the in-depth industry knowledge and digital expertise to be a comprehensive technology partner.

Event Microsites & Mobile Apps

Events are an opportunity to bring your membership together in one location to discuss goals, challenges and advocacy needs. We have the expertise to build a variety of digital platforms that enhance the event experience. Whether that be a micro-site to drive registration or a mobile application to enhance engagement onsite, Accella has the capabilities to meet your needs.

Community Applications

Mobile applications are a great way to engage with your membership, foster community, and cut through the clutter of email. With push notifications to alert users of new content, events, and tools, mobile provides a way to communicate with your members on demand and keep top of mind. Accella has experience building mobile applications that allow you to send content to a variety of platforms - web, mobile, and social - all at once.

Web Sites

If you haven’t worked with an association as a vendor, you probably do not fully understand the challenges typically facing an association or the messaging required to fully engage with members, advocacy groups, or the general public via the web. Accella has a strong portfolio of association website redesign projects. Whether it’s a simple design refresh or updated messaging to fit your base, Accella can help identify the strategic goals of a website redesign and use that to help gain membership, explain advocacy initiatives , or build trust in a way that other website vendors just don’t understand.

LMS Integration

Does your association offer learning management solutions (LMS) to members for continued education and information to keep up with the latest trends? Accella has assisted many associations with the integration of learning management systems and eLearning platforms into their websites and mobile applications. We have the expertise to create a refined user experience that does not require an end user to login into multiple different systems to track their learning progress.

Our Projects

CUES

Credit Union Executives Society

By migrating the CUES website from a proprietary CMS to the latest version of Drupal, we were able to enhance the website with cost-effective feature deployment, flexibility, and stability. The migration included multiple integrations with third party systems such as AMS and LMS solutions and Accella’s experience helped to simplify a process that involved many moving parts. Accella continues to provide ongoing support and improvements to this site.

AHLA

American Hotel and Lodging Association

Focusing on site configuration and enhancements to the content management system, we were able to increase the flexibility, efficiency, and security of AHLA’s website. Now, the AHLA has greater control over how their content is presented, allowing them to more effectively advocate for the hotel industry. Because the AHLA team has to make many content updates manually, we continue to work with them to streamline projects and reduce the time it takes to get them to production.

ALPA

Air Line Pilots Association, International

Using Xamarin, Accella built a multi-platform mobile application, connected to Sitecore as a backend management tool. Serving over 50,000 pilots, the app helps distribute member information, handles complaints and disputes, and offers service for traveling pilots.
