ATA to upgrade website to Content Management System (CMS)

The American Thyroid Association (ATA) is in the process of migrating the website www.thyroid.org and structures to a WordPress Content Management System (CMS). A CMS is used to control a dynamic collection of Web material, including HTML documents, images, and other forms of media facilitating document control, auditing, editing, and timeline management.

After an extensive request for proposals (RFP) process, we found WordPress to be the most flexible, economical and reliable CMS.

Stay tuned for new site navigation, new accessibility and, eventually, a new design that will enhance your experience on www.thyroid.org.
