Web Standards Guide

The Guide for Creating Official Web Sites at EMU

This site is designed to assist web developers at EMU in creating and maintaining official web sites based on approved EMU web standards. Before using the tools and information at this site, you should understand the basics of web development and the elements of good design, and have access to a computer containing the software necessary to create web sites. You should also have a web directory account that allows you to access your department's web directory on the server.

The web team and web developers at EMU are working to create a cohesive, sustainable, user-centered web presence. EMU takes seriously its ongoing responsibility to its web constituents. Therefore, EMU takes seriously its web standards and compliance with these standards. Web designers should be aware that a failure to comply with EMU web standards may result in removal of their web pages / sites from the servers, and discontinuation of their access and responsibilities for web sites. If you are undertaking a new web development project, you should contact Integrated Content early in your project to ensure a smooth process of site development.
