Worked with the Communication and Marketing Department and the Information Technology Department on the MYMSU portal website. We were collaborating with the other departments to add all available services to the portal that are specifically for the internal audience (faculty, staff and students) of MSU to make it more user friendly for them to access information. I met with each individual department to discuss the content they require on each of their websites. I worked closely with IT to create and move content to the new portal. This involved collaborating with each department closely and then training them once their website is completed to be published to maintain their perspective websites.
