ACO/eFF Web Management and Writing Standards Course 2021

The next ACO Public Affairs Web Management and Standards course will be held on April 27 - 28 and again on May 4 - 5. Students will have the option of participating online or in person at SHAPE.

Registration will be open until April 7, 17:00 CET. After closing, we will assess all accepted candidates. Those accepted will receive further course and joining instruction information.

Due to increased interest in this course, only TWO people from each command will be considered on a first come, first served basis!

This course is a valuable and important learning opportunity to renew our capabilities in managing our websites and will cover the basics of the current Content Management System and also focus on content strategy and common writing standards.

The end goal of the course is to ensure consistent publishing standards across all Allied Command Operations websites and all other websites within NATO that have joined the ACO website synchronisation initiative.

Our websites are our window to the outside world and must therefore be professional, consistent and adhere to ACO policy at all times. This course is hosted by the e-Forum Factory Company augmented by SHAPE staff. The firm is responsible for the design and maintenance of our websites.

Be advised that it is ACO Policy for ALL web editors to be formally trained before receiving access to command websites.
