HighEdWeb becomes Digital Collegium on Nov. 1. Discover the new brand

Why headless? How to empower your content editors (with guardrails) and build for scale

Faced with the rapid growth of a massive brand, the team at the University of Notre Dame’s Mendoza College of Business realized it was time for a change.

New academic programs were launching, the enrollment market was rapidly shifting, pricey audits were becoming quickly outdated, emerging technologies were confusing the conversation… and on top of it all, throw a re-org in the mix.

In this session, learn how a small team built a scalable system aimed at putting the power back in the hands of content editors.

How? By giving creators the freedom to optimize, innovate and collaborate.

Hear from stakeholders involved in the launch of a pilot project using this new framework and the lessons they learned along the way. And discover how Mendoza plans to scale this strategy to its 50+ properties.

Topics include:

  • What the Mendoza College of Business team believes the future of headless in higher ed could look like.
  • The case for empowering content editors in your governance strategy.
  • Creating a single source of truth for both content and design.
  • The benefits and limitations of a headless CMS compared to monolithic systems like WordPress and Drupal.
