Web Forum

Web Forum is the University's user group for Departmental Web Officers. It meets once a term, usually around Week 7, to discuss issues of common interest. All DWOs are ex officio members and are informed about meetings and follow-ups using the Web Forum mailing list.

Termly meetings of the Web Forum are used to share information about Web Office and IT Services developments with authors. They are also an invaluable source of feedback from web authors about current and future needs.

Most meetings also feature a presentation on a current University project of relevance to the web authoring community.
