Each Commission web site will have separate web pages devoted to the information categories listed below for which the content suggested for each page is explained.

Commission Home — Considered the home page for the commission web site, this page includes the commission's mission statement (if one exists) and a short description of the purpose of the commission. The short description on this page for each commission can include the information printed in the annual Commission and Interest Group Brochure. The Commission Chair's name, office phone number, and e-mail address will also appear on this page. As Chair, you are responsible for providing revised content for the mission statement and commission description as needed, and Executive Office (EO) staff will post the changes.

Commission Goals and Objectives — This page includes the overall goals and objectives established for the commission. This information can be taken from the annual fall report and/or the post-conference report submitted annually to Division Representatives and can be updated  automatically by EO staff when available.

Commission Leadership — The commission chair name and contact information is listed on this  page as well as that of the chair-elect (if applicable). If the commission has a steering committee or other committees, the members of those committees can be listed as well. Should Operating Principles exist for the commission, this information can also be posted to this page. As Chair,   you provide the information and EO staff will post it.

Commission E-mail List — A direct link is made from this button to the current web page that provides the instructions for subscribing, posting messages and unsubscribing to the commission e-mail list. You do not need to update this page-it is standard list serve information.

Commission News & Updates — If you have a commission newsletter, links can be displayed on this page to the various issues. Reports submitted by commission chairs are linked to this page.  Updates on commission activities and news are also posted here. As Chair, you provide the newsletters, reports and news information and EO staff will post it.

Commission Resources — This page is used to post links to commission-related web sites that serve as vital resources for commission members or other resource information. As Chair, you provide the resource descriptions and web addresses, and EO staff will post it.

Commission Awards — The Executive Office will post the names of the recipients of the Commission's annual Service to Commission Award (if applicable) and the names of commission members who are recipients of NACADA awards. You do not need to provide any information for this page-it will be automatically updated by EO staff.

Commission Conference Events — This page can be used to post the following information:

• a list of the commission-sponsored sessions being presented at the annual conference each year, your annual commission meeting, and other commission-related sessions (CIGD Fair, hot topic sessions, roundtables, etc. )
• information regarding the Commission and Interest Group Fair held at the conference
• an agenda for the Commission meeting held during the annual conference
• links to various national or state conferences on topics of interest to commission members

GENERAL GUIDELINES:

1. The commission web pages can be updated as needed anytime during the year. While the Commission Chair is responsible for coordinating the content for most of these pages, the actual updates will be executed by the Executive Office staff.
2. As Chair, you are ultimately responsible for the content of your Commission's web pages as outlined above. However, you can appoint a Webmaster to coordinate this responsibility.

3. As the information for a particular page is received, it will be posted to the web as soon as possible. The development of these web pages is an ongoing process - all information does not need to be provided at the same time.

4. Graphics should be kept to a minimum on these pages.
5. All content text should be submitted in a WORD document.
6. No streaming video or audio content will be posted.
7. You do not need to spend any time formatting the information you will be providing. The EO staff will format the information to fit the web page template. After the information is posted or changes made, you will be notified via e-mail of the completion of this task.
8. The commission's web site on the NACADA server is considered the official commission web site.
