Working Group Updates
Branding and Web PresenceDina Meek (5 mins)
The ACCESS Web Presence & Branding Working Group works together on updates that would affect/apply across all sites.
Some obstacles have been that not all sites have had the same design and development resources to accomplish this on the same timelines
To that end, the ACO has contracted with a development team that is now involved in guiding our teams regarding navigation and those things that should be common across sites
Additionally, we are reviewing a proposal from that contractor for a more robust style guide which was requested by the Working Group
Our hope is that we will:
Get our universal navigation coordinated across sites
Update footers to be common across sites
And that this can be accomplished within the next month
o Provide tools for all sites to design according to the brand look
And that this can be accomplished with CY Q123 (by end of March)
