Item	Who	To discuss	Notes
English Proficiency	Jane	They have a unique apply process and application form - how can we handle this? http://www.victoria.ac.nz/explore/degrees/certificate-of-proficiency-in-english/about EPP application form I can’t find a button that takes me directly from the English Proficiency Programme webpage to the application form, and I have had an outside query asking me how to apply. Could you add a button so that it links directly to the page below? https://www.victoria.ac.nz/international/applying/pathway/english-proficiency
Apply button	Nick/writers	We've got the new standard PG qual Apply text See for e.g. http://stage.victoria.ac.nz/explore/postgraduate-programmes/master-of-international-trade/apply-contact Since apply is the key action we thought it should be a blue button. Should it and if so, who needs to do what?	Joe Lobotka (Unlicensed) to look at possible design solutions for the apply button 25 Oct 2016 it would be good long term to develop a system managing the dates and when students are able to apply.
Summary card insensitive to inter-subject differences	Paul	An example is "How can we accurately communicate that Information Systems in a BCom(Hons) has two intakes per year, whereas the other subjects have only one?" Adding new content to 'clarify/correct' the situation can be done 'cheaply' but contradicts existing information and might just confuse. Making the cards 'subject-sensitive' is expensive but provides the user with only the correct information for each subject in a qualification.	Andrew Bredenkamp to look into how difficult it will be to customise information on the 'at a glance card' 25 Oct 2016 on the card you will need to show what subject the information relates to otherwise people may think it relates to all subjects.
External Google seems to override our HTML title	Nick	e.g. In this search for text only on the MFA(CP) page when you select film the title is "Film - Victoria University of Wellington" (If you click repeat the search with the omitted results included you see a range of titles, one for each parameter (Film, Design, Music, Theatre) and one for the URL/heading (Requirements) But the code of: http://www.victoria.ac.nz/explore/postgraduate-programmes/master-of-fine-arts-creative-practice/requirements?subject=film shows: <title ng-bind="MetaService.title">Master of Fine Arts (Creative Practice) \| Victoria University</title>	Joe Lobotka (Unlicensed) to look into why this might be happening 25 Oct 2016
PhD blocks	Gabe	The content approach has been decided. What's the best and most durable format for this?
Enhancements	Jane	Talk about anything new on the enhancements list Enhancement requests for study areas and UG degree pages Paul has been parking ideas (his and from other people) in two epics, one for improving AoS pages and the other for ug degrees.
Blockers	All	Team to raise any blockers not already covered
