Our New Website is Now Available --
Thanks You For Your Patience During Our Outage


If you visited our http://www.cqaa.org/ website during the month of May, you discovered that our website had a major problem. We still do not know what happened to our website -- were we a victim of a hacker or did our hosting company experience a problem? Since NetNation was not able to restore our website from a backup copy after two weeks, we took action to rebuild our website.


We were fortunate that the Quality Assurance Institute was working on a prototype website that chapters could use, which was based off our CQAA website. Having this prototype available, allowed us to quickly bring up a new website under the http://www.cqai.org/ domain. Many thanks to the Quality Assurance Institute!

You'll find our new website very similar to our prior website. But you'll notice some slight differences in the navigation and the program registration form, since the website has a new Content Management System. Now with our website recovered, we look forward to making future enhancements.

We want to thank our members who registered for the May program through our workaround. We greatly appreciate all of our members patience and understanding.


Sincerely,

Nancy Kastl
CQAA/CQAI President
