Association of Financial Advisers launches new website
The Association of Financial Advisers (AFA) has launched their new website.
Richard Klipin said the site had been completely rebuilt, with an aim to provide easy access to industry news and AFA event dates.
The AFA has structured information into four sections - voice, leadership, community and education - to ease navigation for users.
Klipin said members will have more control over their profile, forums and blogs in the future to allow increased interactivity, including comments, threaded conversations and online event registration capability.
The site launch comes on the back of social networks set up by the AFA over the past eight months, including Twitter, LinkedIn and Facebook.
The AFA also launched iPhone and Android applications at their National Conference and developed online registration for some events.
