Jim Kirby

Community College of Rhode Island

Manager, Internet Technologies, Design & Content

As the manager of CCRI’s web site design and content, I am responsible for designing the overall look & feel of the web site, ensuring that it meets all state and federal accessibility standards and creating templates and web graphics used in the development of the various department, program and organization sub-sites.  

I also oversee the development, coordination, management, and ongoing maintenance of the content on the public areas of CCRI’s web site and provide graphical customization of the private areas of the site such as MyCCRI, WebCT, Blackboard and Banner. 

I provide web development training for faculty, staff, and students which includes the  development of the underlying code, the production and editing of web graphics and the use of cascading style sheets toward the goal of producing web standards compliant web sites.
