Many Universities are investigating the use of content management systems as the basis for their web sites. The University of Hertfordshire would like to invite you to a free seminar to discuss their experience implementing a CMS and give you an opportunity to benefit from their experiences and ask questions.
Managing the content from diverse sources yet trying to maintain overall corporate control is a tension not uncommon in Universities and Colleges. The Shado system from Straker was developed precisely to meet this problem. This free seminar will provide details of this system and how two UK universities have used it within their corporate web sites. Shado provides a simple to use system for content creators and editors, yet provides deep functionality and minimal constraints on creative design.
Venue: University of Hertfordshire - Fielder Centre, Hatfield Business Park.
Speakers:
Tom Short, Director of Corporate e-Business - University of Hertfordshire
Mike O'Reilly, Intranet Services Manager - London Metropolitan University
Partners:
The Shado Content Management System for both University of Hertfordshire and London Metropolitan University was implemented with support from technology partners, Straker, Highlander and Macromedia. Representatives from each partner will be present at the event to answer questions.
