Website Support

Our team provides content strategy guidance, training and technical support for websites managed through the university's content management system (UBCMS). We work to create high-quality, accessible websites that meet the diverse needs of our community while empowering users to take an active role in website maintenance. 

Creating a New Website

The creation of new websites must be approved and coordinated through the Office of Communications. New departments, centers and institutes are eligible for new websites. Other entities will be considered on a case-by-case basis.

Website Maintenance

We are here to support you in maintaining your website. Our team supports more than 50 websites and relies on designated web editors to take ownership of the content and maintenance of their unit’s website(s).

New Users

  1. The first step for new site authors is to complete the UBCMS Self-Paced Training provided by University Communications.
  2. Once CMS training has been completed, please request access to Deque University website and complete the Fast Track to Accessibility for Any Role (Non-Technical).
  3. Once both trainings have been completed, please contact the Office of Communications to request access to your site. Once access is approved, the website manager will schedule a one-on-one training session (approximately 45-60 minutes).
