Idaho agencies leverage Access Idaho to
modernize websites and improve accessibility
The administrator of Idaho’s official Web portal (Idaho.gov) and
provider of electronic government solutions for the state, Access
Idaho, is working with agency webmasters, at no cost, to update
their websites by providing customizable templates and tools
compatible with mobile devices.
Two of the first state entities that leveraged Access Idaho’s
WordPress toolkit have launched sites this year: the Idaho Bureau
of Homeland Security and the STEM (Science Technology Engineering
and Math) Action Center.
One of the state’s biggest agencies, the Idaho Transportation
Department, is in the process of revamping its website with the
help of Access Idaho’s expertise.
“Access Idaho helped us go from no website to an attractive,
mobile-friendly one in less than a month,” said Angela Hemingway,
Idaho STEM Action Center Executive Director. “And the steps to
update our site are extraordinarily quick and easy.”
About 58 percent of Idaho citizens are using mobile devices as
their primary or only access to the Internet. Because of this,
agencies are increasingly needing to provide mobile-friendly
access. The Idaho Office of the CIO is encouraging state agencies
to take advantage of Access Idaho’s templates and development
resources.
The partnership between state agencies and Access Idaho operates
under a self-funded model, in which no tax dollars were used to
develop and none are necessary to maintain services.
