About Web Services

University Web Services, part of Marketing & Communications, maintains the JSU website and supports the content management system (CMS) Cascade Server.

University Web Services also provides Cascade Server and web design consulting services, support, and training to the university community.

University Web Services is responsible for the management and oversight of all academic and administrative websites within the jsu.edu domain. Our team works with appointed web editors university-wide to guarantee that our site as described in the JSU Web Policy is achieved and maintained. It is expected that all appointed web editors will be properly trained and have the ability to work independently and confidently to maintain quality standards. All requests for assistance from the Web Services team must be submitted via the Web Services Request form.

In addition to general oversight and development of the website, JSU Web Services will conduct annual full content reviews of all sites in our domain and train web editors to ensure that quality is maintained. Below is the annual schedule of academic site reviews. Administrative sites will be reviewed on a rolling schedule. Deans, department heads and directors will be contacted by Web Services prior to their review month to set up an initial meeting to begin the process.

Training for web editors will take place on a rolling schedule and must be completed annually to ensure that JSU’s web guidelines and best practices are followed, the university’s enrollment marketing strategy is carried out, and ADA compliance is achieved.
