\n cuTheme\u00a0Rollout, Migration and Training Plan\u00a0\n <\/h1>\n \n \n <\/header>\n\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n

This summer we will begin a phased migration of ÐÓ°ÉÔ­´´ CMS and Framework websites into our new WordPress theme (cuTheme). The new theme introduces a slightly new look and feel, more content options, and the latest WordPress editor. You can read more about the upcoming changes in these posts<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

When putting together the rollout plan, our number one goal was to provide ample training and support to make the transition as seamless as possible for everyone involved. We also wanted to allow enough time to perform an accessibility review of each site to ensure that any accessibility errors are corrected prior to going live.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Rollout Plan<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

At this time we have six websites piloting the theme, and we are ready to embark on a multi-phase roll out. We will begin with framework sites, as the majority of the content residing on these websites will need to be manually migrated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Following this, we will move on to CMS sites. These will be automatically migrated, but we do anticipate some manual tweaks that will need to be taken care of from our end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You will notice that we have not added specific dates so that we can accommodate for extra time that might be required for training and accessibility fixes.  All things considered, we anticipate each phase to last roughly two weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here is the schedule:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
