June 03, 2014

Easier Navigation & Consolidated Menus Provide Easy Access to Valuable Resources

 

NEW YORK (June 3, 2014) – RIMS, the risk management society™, unveiled a new website design that now emphasizes content on its front page and more streamlined navigational menus that allow practitioners to search and access resources with greater ease. The website can be found at www.RIMS.org.

 

Over the past nine months, RIMS collected feedback about the Society’s website from key stakeholders including members, volunteers and staff, administered a site functionality audit and engaged the services of a branding and creative agency to identify the site’s strengths, as well as areas that needed enhancements.  The process has resulted in a website with increased functionality, better navigation, enhanced search and mobile capabilities.

 

“RIMS prides itself on delivering cutting-edge risk management research and tools to help practitioners advance their risk programs and excel professionally,” said RIMS Executive Director Mary Roth.  “The website’s new layout showcases this commitment and has positioned our existing, valuable risk management content prominently while offering links to articles, reports and our Risk Knowledge library on every interior page.  We’re obviously very proud of this new design and are confident it will satisfy our membership’s evolving needs.”

 

Key enhancements to www.RIMS.org include:

  • Featured and Popular content/resources on homepage;
  • Fewer advertisements to reduce distractions;
  • Membership Profile access on every page;
  • Simplified menu structure and navigation;
  • Centralized professional development and events pages;
  • “Breadcrumb” navigation allowing visitors to retrace page visits;
  • Device responsive/mobile friendly;
  • Social network sharing capabilities.

Visitors with questions about the website or who need assistance navigating its new design should contact RIMS Client Services Team at cst@RIMS.org.
