Universities undertake research through a mesh of partnerships, collaborations
and contractual relationships. Major research funding bodies, such as government
departments, are increasingly encouraging their contractors to adopt formal quality
assurance standards - such as ISO 9001:2000. If you haven't come across this already,
you are likely to see it very soon!
This talk discusses the impact of quality standards on the way Web resources -
internal and external - are defined, delivered, managed and reviewed in academic
environments. An over-view of the quality requirement is presented, along with
some pragmatic suggestions to help you deal with it.
Learning Outcomes:
At the end of the talk participants should emerge from the session with a broad understanding of the
role of formal quality standards in the academic web environment, and an awareness
of the Plan - Do - Check - Act model.
