New Web Consultation Model

02 May 2007

We are setting up a set of new web interest groups so we can improve our communication with UC staff.

These include:

  • Web Administrators Group - all web administrators
  • Web Strategy Group - all those involved in management of large sites
  • Web Developers Group - a high level of programming, technical and development skills
  • Local College Web Groups - the needs of each particular college
  • Reference Groups for specific projects (eg. Qualifications Publisher, CMS and People Publisher)

These will replace the Web Advisory Group.

The purpose of the new groups will be to:

  • develop a better sense of community amongst staff involved in contributing to the UC web
  • achieve comprehensive consultation and feedback between the Web Team and the UC web community
  • communicate Web Team initiatives and developments
  • promote and develop UC web best practice

We will consult with you in a number of ways:

  • Quarterly General update presentations from the web manager to all groups [Starting May].
  • Regular Forums with each group to gather feedback on specific topics relevant to them [Starting June].
  • An online forum for discussion of specific topics and issues [May]
  • A regular survey of the needs of each group starting with Web Administrators [June]
