The Design System offers a variety of navigation elements to help users locate specific features and content. Navigation, in this case, could be generally defined as the set of actions and techniques guiding users throughout the Broward College website, enabling them to fulfill their goals and successfully interact with the site.
Eyebrow Navigation
This global navigation is used across all pages (except microsites).
This menu is keyboard accessible (via the Tab button)
BC Alert
When activated, collegewide BC Alert (reddish-orange banner) will display at the top of every page unless manually disabled on a page-by-page basis.
Main Menu
This global menu is used across all pages (except microsites).
Site Search
Site search is available via the Main Navigation, on every page (except microsites). Site search is powered by the third-party tool, Cludo. Users can type their search or use the voice feature. Users are presented with suggested results as they type their query. A dedicated page will display all Search Results matching the query.
Custom Navigation for Microsites
This option will strip out most main navigation elements, including eyebrow, main, site search, announcements, and footer. BC Alert messages can be kept ON or OFF depending on the purpose of the microsite. The custom navigation allows for the use of a Marketing-approved custom logo, menu link with submenu links, and call-to-action (CTA) buttons.
Left Navigation/Sidebar
This navigation can be manually added per page and offers the option for links and sublinks.
Social Share
Share page on Facebook, Twitter, Linkedin, Pinterest, email, and more.
Utility Navigation
This is available on every page and includes:
Chat
Default: Sammy Seahawk chat offered through a third-party tool
A "back to top" icon is displayed on the lower-right of every page once the user begins to scroll. Clicking on the icon will ease the user back to the top of the page.
Footer
A standard main footer will display across every page except for microsites
The Disclaimer is displayed across every page, with no exceptions.
