Logo Liaisons are specific individuals designated by units of the University to distribute and moderate use of specific UNM logos. Only individuals with the authority to reassign or update Logo Liaisons may request a Logo Liaison change (this includes existing Logo Liaisons). If you are interested in becoming a Logo Liaison but your logo already has a designated Logo Liaison, please reach out to your designated Logo Liaison to discuss this possibility.
Under the 'Category' dropdown menu, select ‘Update Logo Liaison’, complete the form and submit.
Website Management (WCMS) Training
ISS departments may establish and manage their own departmental website's. UCAM's web communications division maintains oversight of the accounts and offers guidance and paid web support contracts to assist with website content management. University website's are governed by the University Administrative Policy #2570.
All staff responsible for editing and updating departmental website's will be required to complete the UNM Web Content Management - Cascade Serverclass before they will be given access to the Web Content Management System (WCMS). Users will not be given access to the WCMS or departmental website's until they have completed the required training.
