Welcome to the NEW ODPH website
It's finally here...the new ODPH website and membership management system!!
We are calling this a SOFT launch of our NEW ODPH website and membership management system because there is still new content that is needed for the site. Over the next few months I will be looking to members and workgroup members to help identify areas of the site that need to be updated and to help write content.
The following video has all the details you will need when accessing the NEW site. It will also explain our new membership management system and how our email correspondence will change. We will no longer be using the Mailman email service but instead a forum connected to our new website. This change may take a little time to get used to but it is a very exciting change! Once we have people using the site, a video describing the specifics to the forum will be sent to all members. Also important to note, the listserv email address is listserv@odph.ca.
I hope that ODPH members are as impressed with our NEW site as I am. Lifeline Design has been absolutely amazing to work with and has made this very HUGE job a lot easier! They have provided unlimited support and many, many wonderful website features that will benefit our membership. As part of their support, Lifeline Design's Dave Saraiva, has agreed to provide a few webinars over the next few weeks/months (and as needed) to help members with our new website and membership management system. The dates of the webinars are as follows (EST). I will also send the webinar dates and time as outlook invites this week.
April 16th from 2-:00-3:00 pm
April 23rd from 10:30-11:30am
April 27th from 11:00-12:00 am
April 30th from 3:00-4:00pm
Again, I hope you are impressed with the new site and I appreciate your patients as we work together over the next few months to make our NEW site the best it can be for members and non-members! Thank you again to Lifeline Design for making this all happen.
Please do not hesitate to email me directly if you have comments or questions.
