Project Overview

Launched in spring 2020, the Next Generation Web Presence Project’s goal is to develop a new University website that communicates a clear and compelling story of student success and faculty accomplishments, fuels enrollment growth and alumni participation, and inspires engagement and investment in UNCG community and business partnerships.

Since the March 2020 launch of the project, the NGWP team has worked with hundreds of students, faculty, and staff. Together with the vendor, VisionPoint Marketing, the University has reviewed the University’s existing website structure, completed focus groups, adopted a web strategy and information architecture, as well as launched the design phase of the new website’s pages.

The NGWP leadership team includes:

• Chris Waters, University Webmaster
• Kimberly Osborne, Interim Vice Chancellor for Strategic Communications 
• Sherri MacCheyne, Director for Univ. Communications Strategic Operations
• Chris Sawyer, Project Manager for ITS

The NGWP team reports to the Web and Mobile Operating (WAMO) Committee. WAMO includes representatives from units across campus.
