Drupal is one of the most widely used CMS platforms in higher education, but it has traditionally been seen as a tool for developers. This session will explore how Drupal CMS is changing that perception by making website creation more accessible for marketing and communications teams. We’ll discuss the key benefits of Drupal for universities and colleges — including accessibility, security, community support and open-source flexibility — while also addressing common challenges non-developers face. You’ll learn how Drupal CMS simplifies website setup with smart defaults, AI-powered customization and a user-friendly experience tailored for content teams. Whether you’re already using Drupal or considering it for your institution, this session will help you understand how Drupal CMS fits into a larger strategy for web governance and digital experience management.
