This workshop, in collaboration with DesignLab, will focus on best practices for content organization and design for personal websites and portfolios for academics and early career professionals. Participants will discuss hosting platforms and review examples of successful online storytelling for sharing your work with both academic and non-academic audiences. This workshop will also cover resources for anyone looking to professionalize their online presence–from image and font databases to simple design tips and tricks.
RSVPs are required and seats are limited. Questions and topics of interest will be collected ahead of time.
To join, please send an email with your name and affiliation to: weindling@wisc.edu. We welcome you to bring a lunch, and light refreshments will be available.
