Program pages on the web have three four main components: a Program Overview, Why Your College, and a list of degrees and certificates within that Program, a customizable Why Your College section, and a customizable left sidebar. Learn more about each section below.
See an example Program page (login: Maricopa / Maricopa).
...
The program overview is a 1-2 paragraph, keyword rich description of each program to help drive prospective students to these pages. Program overviews are fed into Colleges websites and Maricopa www.maricopa.edu from a central repository maintained by District ITS, District Marketing, and the Center for Curriculum and Transfer Articulation.
...
District Marketing collaborated with the Pathway Mapping team and district-wide Instructional Councils to develop the program overviews. District Marketing will facilitate an annual review each Spring of program overviews by these parties. If major you believe changes are required in between annual reviews, please send an email to Matthew.Rodgers@domail.maricopa.edu, pathways.mapping@domail.maricopa.edu, and the appropriate Instructional Council if known.
Why Your College
Your college has the option to customize program pages on your website under the why your college section, e.g. Why Phoenix College? This is where you can put college-specific information about your program such as:
Points of pride for your college
Accreditation information
Contact information
| Note |
|---|
If including contact info, it is recommended to use distribution list emails and shared phone lines rather than individual contact info. It is a very poor student experience to contact an individual only to find they no longer work there or in that role. Even if you have a good process for updating contact information on your site, the old information may still come up in a Google search after you make the change to your site. |
You college also has the option to leave this section blank. If you do, nothing will display besides the general program overview.
To request updates, please contact your college’s web staff or Marketing Manager.
use the Request to Create/Update a Program Page on the Web form to submit your changes for review. If other Colleges have the same program, it is recommended that you propose the changes to the appropriate Instructional Council before submitting them through the form.
List of Degrees and Certificates
The list of degrees and certificates are fed into Colleges websites and Maricopa www.maricopa.edu from a central repository maintained by District ITS, District Marketing, and the Center for Curriculum and Transfer Articulation.
To report an issue, please send an email to web@domaildl-web-pathways@domail.maricopa.edu, pathways.mapping@domail.maricopa.edu, and your college web staff so that we can review and troubleshoot as necessary.
