IGCEMA to Launch New Website Software

[StephenTucker]

Well after months of waiting last month it was announced that the updated software that IGCEMA uses for it's website was finally released. With the release we have been working extremely hard to get everything ready for launch. The IGCEMA website is very complex as over the last few years we have added many modifications to allow the site to do all the things we wanted it to. So we have had to make modifications to make most of those items work on the new site.
On July 1st between the hours of 6-12pm EST we will be converting the website over to the new version. During this transition the website will not be able to be accessed. The new site will have many new additions that we will continue working on once the framework is installed. Following the installation we will announce a web cast where we will go over the new website features for those interested in attending. Some of the new additions to the site will include a donation system that will track all individuals who have donated. A help desk system that will allow users who have issues to fill out a support ticket. As well as software we purchased to put together a book of tips that was started by former board member Patrick Callaby. We are looking forward to launching the site and will be working very hard over the next week or so to get everything ready to go.
