Can't update your website because your developer is on vacation? Is your IT staff diverted from other critical projects because only they can update the website? Is last month's meeting still on the "upcoming events" page? Want to add a blog to your site but you're still stuck using Dreamweaver?

Stop trying to take on 21st-century challenges with 20th-century web development techniques! This workshop will show you how a web Content Management System (CMS) can help streamline your web workflow, enable non-technical staff to update your site, make event calendars easy, and more.
RSVP HERE >

- CMS features, benefits and drawbacks
- What to ask yourself when considering a CMS
- Live demo of basic CMS features from Drupal + Joomla
