Our Portfolio

Campus Web Services can develop database-driven, dynamic web-based applications for your organization. We have designed and developed over 180 web sites, dozens of custom web applications and currently host over 150 sites. Here are some examples of the web applications that we have developed. Some are very large, some quite small, and most are somewhere between these two extremes.

  • e-Colorado 

    e-Colorado.org is a workforce development portal with resources for education, employment and business which we designed and developed for the Colorado Department of Labor and Employment. The portal is comprised of several highly configurable content management, social networking, messaging and security modules connected together to allow its administrators and users to create, publish and share various types of content. It also offers customizable and personalized view of the portal for each registered user.

  • Experts Guide

The application also offers a visual tool called Schedule Builder that NIU students can use to build, save and print their semester schedules online.

 

  • NIU Calendar 

    A web-based ASP.Net calendar application used to keep individuals informed of university events.

The system is also used to send electronic announcements to all or a selected group of university members.
