New student homepage launched

After several weeks of development the webteam has delivered the new Canterbury Christ Church University student homepage. This new page has less links and an increased focus on important and actual messages.

Messages are administered by the university's communication team and combined with current university events listings.

It is another technological success for CIS as it moves forward with the implementation of the CMS (Content Management System). It also aims to standardise the design across CCCU's web presence.

Looking towards future developments the team have also integrated the jQuery library to provide an enhanced user experience. This way all main messages can be viewed in their entirety on the same page.

We are currently working on a poll control to provide our users other an interactive and friendly way of leaving feedback about new developments and general events.
