Portals: A Framework for Customer Centered Resources
| Title: | Portals: A Framework for Customer Centered Resources (ID: EDU0048) | | Author(s): | Oren Sreebny (University of Washington) | | Topics: | E-Commerce, Portals, Web-based Information Systems | | Origin: | EDUCAUSE Annual Conferences (2000) | | Type: | Articles, Papers, and Reports | | Abstract: | Student portals, faculty portals, alumni portals, continuing education portals--what's wrong with this picture? The emergence of portal technology, along with related back-end systems including e-commerce and exchanges, offers an opportunity to tailor and personalize the relationship between an educational institution and its many clientele. At the University of Washington we are working with a deceptively simple model to fit the many pieces together in a way that puts the customer at the center of our view and focuses our energies on keeping and strengthening our relationships over a lifetime. We will describe the model and the concepts behind it, and present the results of work to date. | | View this resource: | |
