Navigating NCHSAA.org

The NCHSAA is in the process of a major site overhaul; however there have been a large number of principals, athletic directors and coaches calling the association in reference to locating information that is posted on NCHSAA.org.   For this assignment I created Navigating NCHSAA.org to serve as a resource tool for newcomers to the site. Navigating NCHSAA.org is a new link posted on the NCHSAA homepage under “Get Involved.”

There was one major change that I had to make from the proposal I submitted last week.  I had to create a style guide for this new page that may differ from the style guide followed normally for the site.  The NCHSAA.org as a whole follow the AP Style Guide.  The unique nature of this page called for its own style guide in order to make sure it format was consistent.
