New website – we need your help!

April 13, 2015

Screen shot 2015-04-10 at 11.06.06 AMUniversity of Portland has recently selected Hannon Hill’s Cascade Server as the new content management system for UP’s public website, up.edu. The new CMS will replace Sherpa.

To coincide with the installation of the new CMS, the University is also making plans to redesign our public-facing website, up.edu, and we need faculty and staff feedback. A short user survey is running on up.edu. Next time you visit the website, please click on the “How Can We Improve?” tab and take a moment to answer the short questions about how you’re using up.edu. Your answers will help our design team plan the architecture and navigation for the new site.

Superusers are invited to a meeting on Tuesday, April 21 at 9:30 a.m. in the Chiles Center Hall of Fame Room. Timelines for the redesign and CMS installation will be shared and there will be ample time for a question-and-answer session.

Please contact Amy Shelly, shelly@up.edu, or Lisel Stancil, stancil@up.edu, for more information.
