Overview
We develop websites to serve the needs of both visitors to the website and the staff responsible for managing content. We intentionally designed the system to be edited by people without any technical knowledge or experience.
Cost
Our services are free to most Department of Medicine units, including divisions, centers, education programs, etc. (50% or more of the leadership of the program/center/unit need to be based in the Department of Medicine to qualify for our free services).
We are open to other UW groups (for a fee). Please contact us to discuss your project, and we will discuss whether we might be a good fit for you.

Our website services do not extended to sites for content specific to internal audiences or intranets.
We encourage teams to investigate UW-IT supported tools like SharePoint Online (with OneDrive) and Google Drive for managing private documents. These services allow you to restrict access by UW NetID or UW Groups memberships.
Our team can help facilitate the creation of a UW SharePoint site for Department of Medicine units, however we do not support content maintenance or oversight.
Lab sites
We currently do not host lab websites. We recommend asking your division if your lab's work may be posted to the research section of the main division site. If not, we can help initiate a UW SharePoint site to host your lab website.
HIPPA, FERPA & Protected content
We do not host or allow HIPPA, FERPA, or other protected content on our websites. Please familiarize yourself with UW's terms of use that governs all websites and online services.
