Key Features

Page Templating

Templating helps us with consistency. CENTRA’s Web Page Template serves as base to all web pages we need to create. Group Pages, Conference Pages and Workshop Pages, all alike and style consistent.

Cross Page Announcements (News)

Announcing with CENTRAdmin is done in one place and published in more than one place. For instance, it allows content from all Research Groups to be gathered in a single place while still keeping the context of each announcement.

Announcement Spotlights

Announcements can be put into a Spotlight with an associated image. Spotlights are listed in the front page and can have a start and end date.

Member Profiles and Positions

CENTRAdmin’s Member management allows us to keep all our information up to date. Be it in our reports, web pages or even user accounts. It allows us to properly timeline member permanence and roles within CENTRA.

Member Publication Reporting

ORCID Integration (others to come) allows CENTRAdmin to keep member publication lists up to date and consistent at all times. Not only it helps CENTRA generate accurate publication reports at all times as it also allows Member profiles to list publications accordingly while still having properly cross-referenced authorship among members in order to allow proper publication accounting.

Automatic Mailing List Subscription/Unsubscription

As soon as a member’s position starts, he is automatically subscribed to the mailing lists he should be subscribed. When a member’s position ends, he/she is automatically unsubscribed accordingly after a grace period. This helps CENTRA keep its internal information channels up to date at all times even when members change their e-mail address.

Notifications

CENTRAdmin has extremely modular Notification capabilities. For instance, Members receive email Notifications of upcoming events and important updates regarding their position at CENTRA.

Event Management

CENTRAdmin also makes managing Seminars and Workshops a fairly easy task. For future reference, Events can also have attachments such as presentation, speaker notes, group photos etc.

Public Event Calendar

CENTRAdmin allows you to display CENTRA Events in your personal calendar (Google Calendar).
