History of TMCC's Website

TMCC's web presence was established in 1998. Since its inception, there have been six major redesigns and/or re-alignment periods. Collaboration partners include the Marketing and Communications Office, the Web Advisory Committee, departmental web content contributors and you—the site visitors.

The Web Services team, in conjunction with the aforementioned contributors, continues to refine the TMCC website, expanding content and making revisions based on visitor feedback, research, analysis and best practices in the ever-evolving area of web development.

Recent Timeline

In 2019, Web Services completed a redesign of tmcc.edu. The updated site design was created to work within the framework of a new Content Management System (CMS), which was implemented and released simultaneously.

In 2015, Web Services released a responsive, mobile-friendly retrofit, enhancing the existing templates and user-friendly design of tmcc.edu.
