Center for Ocean Sciences Education Excellence

Introduction

The COSEE Content Management System (CMS) was developed by Raytheon Systems in association with the COSEE Web Working Group (WWG) to provide the Network and Centers with an easy to use methodology for creating and maintaining individual websites.

Five Centers and COSEE.net currently use the CMS, which resides on a single server so that assets can be shared. Each site has a similar look and feel to promote cohesiveness within the Network, but contains variable content unique to its owner.

New Centers are welcome to join the CMS. Please contact Annette deCharon, Chair of the WWG, for information on installing the CMS and accessing files.
