Access to Boise State WordPress access is provided through the Office of Information Technology.
How to Request Access
Your supervisor may request access for you by emailing the Help Desk at helpdesk@boisestate.edu. Indicate the level of access needed (Administrator, Editor, Author).
The Help Desk will assign the request to the WordPress Support Team. The WordPress Support Team may consult with the primary site admin for your website to confirm your access.
Required Web Accessibility Compliance Training
Requests for new accounts require completion of a Canvas course about web accessibility, which is expected to take 60-90 minutes to finish. This training is required to ensure compliance with University Policy 8140, “Information Technology Accessibility” and federal law.
