(NASDAQ: WSTL), and a leading provider of global conferencing solutions, today announced a collaboration with American Cancer Society California Division Inc. (ACSCD) to develop a unique web portal solution designed to educate and empower the ACSCD volunteer staff.
"One of the primary goals of this project was to provide our volunteer staff with easy access to our existing repository of information and tools," stated Steven Rickards, Director, Patient Support and Training, ACSCD. "Previously, that access was limited to providing only a listing of training opportunities and an online registration function. With our new website we are able to deliver access to a much greater amount of information and tools, increasing awareness and understanding of all aspects of the American Cancer Society, from research to advocacy, while helping us address the silo approach to an individual's experience of the organization," added Mr. Rickards.
