Web Editor Training

The CalLutheran.edu website is powered by Modern Campus CMS, a content management system that helps Cal Lutheran employees work collaboratively on web content. It is completely web-based, which means that you can access it from any web browser on- or off-campus. This makes web editing simple and easy.

If you previously had a Modern Campus CMS account and need to regain access, please Contact Us for help. If you want to create a new account and access your unit's section of the website, become a Web Editor today!
