Case Study: University of Prince Edward Island streamlines web management and improves accessibility with Silktide

University of Prince Edward Island improves web accessibility scores by 10-15 points with Silktide

The University of Prince Edward Island (UPEI) needed to improve its public website to serve as a more effective student recruitment tool. Its challenges included a vast amount of outdated and error-ridden content, a decentralized publishing model, and a lack of website accessibility expertise. To address these issues, UPEI turned to the Silktide platform for help with content auditing and governance.

Using Silktide, the team audited their site to remove redundant content and broken links. The platform's features, including Policies and Annotations, helped them assign tasks and maintain quality. Silktide provided the guidance needed to significantly improve their website's accessibility, resulting in a 10-15 point jump in their scores. This streamlined process allowed UPEI to focus on creating engaging content for prospective students.
