Re: Wrapping Up & Moving Forward: Old Website Goes Offline Nov 1
Websites are never finished. We’re wrapping up an important part of the website project and have more to do moving forward. Here are some project updates:
- Content migration from the old site to the new site was completed in early July and all content owners could review and edit their pages.
- All front-end development specified in our contract with the vendor was completed on August 15.
- The old site will go offline on November 1. Pages that are not incorporated into the new site by November 1 will not be available on either the old or new site.
- The deadline for incorporating all pages into the new site was mid-August and some sections are incomplete. It’s exceptionally challenging for current and prospective students to find information across two separate sites. Please contact me if you need assistance and/or you can find training videos, a user guide and more here.
- Our upcoming work includes refining content, developing new content, continuing search engine optimization, improving the user experience and more.
Please send me your questions. Thank you!
