General Rules and Guidelines
Office Rules
1. Act professionally and do your assigned tasks to the best of your ability.
2. Although we appreciate self motivated members, keep in mind that CECC is
student run so you are not expected to know everything. If you are not sure about
a situation or would like to present an idea, do not hesitate to ask.
3. The office is located on the 4th floor of Campbell hall and is also where
recruitment of NJIT students for job placement occurs. We ask that members of
CECC keep conversations, face to face, cell phone, to a minimum. All meetings
that require conversations will be held in the conference room.
AttireAs a general rule, you can wear casual clothing while working in the CECC office.
Please be advised that we expect all personnel to be sensitive to fellow coworkers thus
any prints, logos, etc. that people find offensive is not acceptable. Consult with
management if you are unsure about your attire.
As a member of CECC, we expect you to present a clean and professional appearance
when you represent us. All members who come in contact with our public such as
meetings with agencies and participating in NJIT/CDS events are expected to dress
professionally. Button down shirts, khakis, and dress shoes are acceptable.
NametagThere will be plenty of students working in and out of the office thus nametags are
required. Upon entering the 4th floor, you must show your nametag to the receptionist to
be allowed entry to the CECC office. You will be required to wear the nametag until you
leave the office. You will be provided with a nametag free of charge but replacement of
lost or stolen nametags will require a charge of $5.00.

Clock in and Clock outAll students are required to clock at the start of their shift and clock out at the end of their
shift. In the event of unforeseen circumstances that you are not able to clock in or clock
out, speak to your project manager or student director for manual recording.
TardinessCECC is aware that most students will be coming from class before going to the office.
We will tolerate lateness due to the uncontrollable circumstances from your class or
professor but we will not tolerate frequent tardiness or lateness due to irresponsible
reasons.
Calling OutAs a student run program at NJIT, we understand that academic responsibilities come
first. We will tolerate calling out of work as long as you have a valid academic or
personal reason. We do, however, require that you plan ahead and inform you Project
Manager that you are not coming in one week ahead of time.
Individual ConcernsAs a general rule, every CECC member should be comfortable in their work
environment. If you have any questions, concerns, or comments regarding your working
condition, do not hesitate to contact the Student Director for a private meeting to express
yourself.

Student Leaders Succession Track
In CECC, our mission to the students is to prepare future leaders through Civic
Engagement. Under our program, students are able to complete projects with community
agencies to help improve their access to and use of computer technology. Students are
encouraged to take advantage of CECC opportunities to strengthen their resume and help
prepare them for career goals. The student leader’s succession track is designed for
CECC to have talented students focus on different experiences every year. Each year
offers valuable knowledge that prepares the student for the following year.

2 Research
Through the collaborative efforts of CECC and Non-Profit Agency, we can follow a
series of investigation to determine the following:
1. Project Goals – The purpose of the website must be clearly defined in order for the project to be successful. With our preliminary meeting, possible goals are Promote brand awareness, a positive end user experience especially with younger visitors, and compile an easy way of gathering contacts.
2. Project Strategies –we must plan the steps necessary to successfully meet the project goals. As an example, in order to a positive end user experience especially with younger visitors, we must create an engaging website that has an attractive visual design.
3. Competitive Analysis – in order to develop a great website, we must review other websites to determine popular trends. We must determine three to five other websites and CECC will use them as a point of reference in creating the Non-Profit Agency Website.
4. Information Architecture – in our efforts to create a quality website, we must focus on how the information on the website is passed. Certain information such as “Who is the target audience[s]?”, “Who should have access to the administrator?” and “How should the information be categorized and passed on the website?” are answered.
5. Component and System Diagram – Component diagram is the overall cosmetic design of the website while the system diagram is how the applications running the functions are designed. Although CECC will create both the component and system diagram, Non-Profit Agency must view and approve all final designs.
Page 49 of 71
3 Milestones
In order to better explain the components of the overall project, CECC has divided the
overall project into sub projects with individual milestones.
1. Static Website – a static website is the traditional website that does not change
regularly but offer basic information. Such a website offers information for the
user to retrieve but does not offer any interaction. This stage is essential as the
design, content architecture and overall feel of the website is established.
a. Project Initiation –plans and scheduling are established.
b. Design –the component and system design is created and approved.
c. Code – the creation and implementation of the project is done.
d. Testing – the product is tested for errors and ensures that the project goals
are met.
e. Presentation – the launch and presentation of the website.
Page 50 of 71
2. Dynamic Website – This is the second stage of the website development project
as the dynamic content or website applications are created and installed. The
technologies used will be php with a MySQL Database. The following are the
different components/milestones that will be created.
a. Control Panel – this is the home page of the administrator of the website
database. The control panel will allow the administrator to create, update,
and delete the information entered in the website.
b. Job Ads Application - this application allows the user to enter his/her
information and search for prospective jobs. An employer can also enter
his/her information and search for prospective applicants.
c. Membership Form Creation – this is a form that allows the user to enter
his/her information and make a donation, sign up for newsletters, etc.
d. Contact Us Form – members and anonymous users can contact Non-
Profit Agency with a personal message.
e. Dynamic ‘Question Forum’ - along with membership, users can contact
specific members with a personal question.
f. Dynamic Partner Search – A quick and simple way for users to search for
a members and partners of the agency.
g. Dynamic Communication – A dynamic way of posting a specific question
and archived for the agency to view or post in the website (see ‘ask Judy’)
Page 51 of 71
3. Advanced Dynamic Website - the third and final stage of the project will
continues where the Dynamic Website left off. The following
applications/milestones are smaller in number but are more complex.
a. Advanced Control Panel – same as the regular control panel but controls
the advanced tools.
b. News Management System – a way of creating, editing, and publishing
news articles.
c. Dynamic Calendar – a popular application that shows a schedule of
events. This application allows the administrator to update the calendar
and the visitor to view.
d. Dynamic Content – this is an application where all the content in the
dynamic website is edited. This will allow the administrator to act as the
webmaster and change the website regularly.
e. Advanced Communication – these are applications that allow users to
interact with other users dynamically. (i.e. Chat and message boards)

The purpose of the website must be clearly defined in order for the project to be
successful. The old CECC website no longer reflects the goals and mission of CECC
thus a redesign is needed. As the student director, I have identified the following project
goals.
1.1 Brand Awareness
A common goal for the project is to increase brand awareness. The website redesign
will focus on promoting the name CECC.
1.2 Positive End User Experience
Through general conversations and feedback from clients, the current website had a
few flaws pertaining to the navigation, color scheme, information passing and general
usability. The goal is to make the website more user-friendly by changing the color
scheme and general layout of the design. There will also be focus on making the
website more dynamic where users can interact with each other, CECC Staff and
view personalized information.
1.3 Positive Administrative Experience
CECC website and the program itself will require a fair amount of content and
maintenance. All business processes will be implemented on the website so there
must be focus on the usability of the website.
1.4 Be a Model Website
Another goal of the website is to be the model website for all of our website projects.
Our own website must demonstrate current website technologies. This will give us
instant credibility because it will demonstrate our skills.
1
2 Project Strategies
I have worked up a Project Strategy to meet the stated goals. These strategies will be
used as reference during the course of the development pertaining to the CECC Website:
2.1 Engaging Website
Developing an engaging website will promote a positive user experience.
The following are components of an engaging website:
Fresh Content – the website must be regularly updated. There will be a
timestamp of when the website was last updated.
Visual Design – a more appealing color scheme and layout will attract
users to browse the website content. Having more users view the website
promotes CECC and our services.
System Design – having dynamic content requires a good system design.
CECC will depend on the website for business processes so there must not
be any errors in our design.
Information Architecture – the content will be separated and tailored to
specific users. Users can instantly select their category and access
information pertaining to them.
2.2 Communication Mechanism
Users will be able to contact CECC for general questions where the staff will
guarantee 48 hour responses (excluding holidays). There will also be a FAQ page
where the most popular questions are posted for immediate answers.
2.3 Empower Users
Both Clients and Administrators will have access to the internal CECC system so
they can view and in some cases edit project information.
2
3 Information Architecture
In our efforts to create a quality website, we must focus on how the information on the
website is passed. Certain information such as “Who is the target audience[s]?”, “Who
should have access to the administrator?” and “How should the information be
categorized and passed on the website?” are answered.
3.1 User Groups
There are four basic types of users who will access the website. Each type will be
categorized into groups and subgroups.
Visitor
Students
o Students interested in joining
o Service Leaning Students
o Employed Students
o Volunteers
o Senior Project Students
Agencies
o Agencies interested in proposing a project
o Current Agencies
o Past Agencies
NJIT Administrator
o Career Development Service Staff
o NJIT Telecommunications

3.2 Navigation
The following flowcharts show how each group will navigate through the website.

4 Project Management
In our efforts to create a quality website, we must focus on how the information on the
website is passed. Certain information such as “Who is the target audience[s]?”, “Who
should have access to the administrator?” and “How should the information be
categorized and passed on the website?” are answered.

4.2Pert Chart
A PERT chart also known as network chart displays the tasks in a project along with the
dependencies between these tasks. Using a PERT chart is a great way to define and
display the dependency relationships that exist between tasks. The order in which tasks
occur is an important part of project planning and PERT Chart simplifies the process of
creating dependencies and displaying dependencies in an easy to follow diagram.
11
4.3 Gant Chart
A Gantt chart is a popular type of bar chart, showing the interrelationships of how
projects, schedules, and other time-related systems progress over time. Gantt chart is
basically useful tool for planning and scheduling which allow us to assess how long a
project should take, help manage the dependencies between tasks and Gantt charts
determine the resources needed.
