You can buy the rights to watch at your convenience the streaming files of the recorded session (presentation and Q&A). We suggest that you use this webinar to introduce and train the members of your team (you can use an LCD projector in a bigger room to organize a campus-wide event or have each member of your team view the recording on their own at their convenience).


911 Website: How to design a crisis/emergency web template for your institution (65 minutes - recorded on May 7, 2008)
Michael Dame, Director of Web Communications at Virginia Tech, will explain why every higher education institution should prepare a crisis web template and how Virginia Tech’s made a big difference on April 16, 2007. He will also walk you through the steps necessary to build a best-of-breed crisis website and share a basic coded template to get you started

Read what some attendees have to say about the live series:

  • Megan McDermott, Manager of Web Communications - University of Waterloo, ON (Canada):
    "This was a good session and you couldn't have found anyone more knowledgeable about the topic."

  • Cynde Mercer, Webmaster - Pasco-Hernando Community College, FL:
    "Another great webinar from Higher Ed Experts. "911 Website" provided a lot of information from an experienced communications professional that will aid us as we make our own crisis reaction plans."

  • Blair Williamson, Website Designer - Texas A&M University, TX:
    "I heard Michael Dame speak at HighEdWebDev 2007 and still learned a lot from this session! I think the tested templates will be a great asset."

  • Pete Montaldi, Web Developer - Appalachian State University, NC:
    "We found the 911 webinar to be very useful. Much of the information contained we were already aware of, having looked closely at VT's web response to the tragedy. Hearing Mike talk about it definitely added value, and we learned new things which we will incorporate into our own emergency preparations."

  • Todd Barber, Webmaster - University of Tennessee Health Science Center, TN:
    "It's a shame that we have to attend something on this topic, but if a tragedy were to strike my campus, I would want to be ready to communicate proper and precise info over the web. This webinar put us on that track."

  • Anthony Bosio, Web Multimedia Developer - Lynn University, FL:
    "HEE webinars continue to have a high signal-to-noise ratio which makes them worth our time."

  • Rachel Reuben, Dir. of Web Comm. & Strategic Projects - State University of New York at New Paltz, NY:
    "It was concise, yet comprehensive, and got me focused on what I need to do to create a 911 template for my university. Thank you Mike!"
