Communication and marketing services

Website edits are managed centrally by RFHS communications staff. To request a web update, email support@umanitoba.ca. We endeavour to complete web tickets within 48 hours of the ticket being assigned to the Rady web support team (not from the time you create the support ticket).

Please include:

• Route to Rady web team in the subject line of your email
• URL (link) for the page that requires changes or edits
• Details on what content should be changed
• Where on the page your edits are needed
• Attach any supporting documents as applicable

Note: UM's best practices, including the type of content we post, how we handle content and images we select, have all changed since we've moved to Drupal. We appreciate your patience as we work together to uphold the university's web and accessibility standards.

To request a new page or site, email support@umanitoba.ca. A member of our team will review your request and get in touch with you.

Note: RFHS does not support the development of research lab, research group, or personal research websites.

The Drupal platform offers the ability to view analytics on faculty and college webpages.

For more information or to request basic analytics for a specific page, email support@umanitoba.ca with the URL of the page you'd like to track.

Through our online platforms, you can get the latest on research updates, student highlights, faculty events and activities and award opportunities.

We can help get the word out about your upcoming event through our social platforms. Send us an email with full event details and we'll be in touch.

If you have video content that you'd like to post on our YouTube channel, we can help with that too. Contact us to get started.

If you're interested in creating a social media account, please connect with our our office first. This applies to Rady Faculty colleges, departments, units, centres, or institutes representing the university, but not to personal accounts. 

This to consider before you get started:

• define your strategy
• identify your objectives
• identify your target audience
• allocating time and resource to manage social media accounts
• choose the right social media channel

View the UM social media directory to see who is online.

For more information on the Access and Privacy Office social media guidelines, visit their guidelines and resources page.

If you'd like to engage our viewers through a day-in-the-life or take them behind the scenes of an upcoming event or special day, send us an email and tell us about your takeover idea.

Depending on your area of study, topics you might consider are Convocation, CaRMS Match Day, National Physician Assistant Day, Pharmacists' Day or National Nursing Week.

If you are interested in staying up-to-date on faculty announcements, news and receiving our weekly events email (which includes upcoming seminar series, guest speakers, workshops and more) you can self-subscribe.

Subscribe to the Rady Faculty email list

For support with the listservs, please email mailman@lists.umanitoba.ca.

The Rady FHS-all listserv is for faculty and staff members of the Rady Faculty of Health Sciences. Students are members of their respective Rady Faculty college/program listservs (maintained by the colleges) and we communicate with students as required.

Our emails are distributed using the FHS-ALL listserv. This distribution list pulls subscribers from a collection of departmental lists, which we did not create and do not manage. This means our office cannot remove you from this specific list.

For support with the listservs, please email mailman@lists.umanitoba.ca.
