29.09.15
Topics
- Owned by Marketing
- Input from faculties and schools – but maintenance move to central web team
- Annual cycle of updates – may not be aligned to enrolments, but more aligned with publication cycles (creation dates each year)
Implications
- Introduce a process around gathering content as part of the publication process (GUS related, and publications team)
- Ensure get all the information aligned and only ask for it once
- Sophie will be doing a publications review when she gets back – good opportunity for review of processes
Engagement
- Change in engagement faculty and school staff – increased engagement for story based marketing based on the topic template
- Comms advisers – engagement for student stories
- Queried whether the Comms advisers roles could help – need to be clear on what those roles do for us
- Careers team engagement will increase
- Therefore…..overall increased stakeholder engagement and resource time on maintaining these pages
Programmes
- As changes to programmes go through Academic Board, should Academic Office we checking the content (potential ownership)?
- This ensures alignment between GUS and the programme pages (same voice and tone, not an additional voice from the faculties)
- Faculties still involved in the content gathering stage
