Welcome to the new and improved NIATx website!

The new NIATx website will retain all the great resources of the old site, but with easier to use navigation, new features and updated content.

So I invite you to take a few minutes to explore and use the new site. And make sure to let us know what you think at webmaster@niatx.net

Some of the new features of the site include:

Improved navigation
Our goal with the new navigation is to get you to the resources you need as quickly as possible. To that end, we've organized content into drop-down menus that appear under seven main headings at the top of every page. The menu headings have been re-labeled to clearly identify the content within each one.

At the bottom of the home page, we've also categorized frequently used links by type of user as well as provide a section to highlight certain projects or events.

If you don't see what you're looking for, you can always use the search function located at the top of every page.

Shareable content
We've made it easy to share with your colleagues all the great content on the NIATx site. At the top right of every page, you'll see icons that will let you email the page, share the page to your favorite social networking site or print the page.

My NIATx
Almost all the content on the NIATx site is available to users without a username or password. But there are a couple tools that do require a login. One of those is My NIATx, your personal home page and dashboard to the NIATx Network. On My NIATx you can save the resources important to you in one convenient location or check out the latest news and blog posts, as well as see a digest of the most recent activity to the Support Forum.

Support Forum
The NIATx Support Forum is where we bring the power of the NIATx Network to you. Can't find the answer on the NIATx site? Browse the instant help FAQ for ideas and resources to some common problems. Or post a question to the forum and get help from over 4,000 provider participants, 100 coaches and university staff. The NIATx Network is only as strong as you make it, so take some time to browse the Support Forum and share your expertise.

Thanks and make sure to let us know what you think.

Director, NIATx
