NYSTRS Launches Revitalized Web Site
(Nov. 20, 2008) With a focus on enhancing the overall online experience for members, NYSTRS today launched a completely redesigned and more user-friendly Web site. While the address remains the same (www.nystrs.org) little else will look familiar to frequent site visitors.
Among the improvements:
The new site is easier to navigate for our four main constituencies: active members, retirees, delegates and employers. Color coding by group type will help members quickly and easily identify the section in which they are browsing. The information has also been streamlined, making items easier and more intuitive to locate.
The Secure Area has been rebranded to MyNYSTRS. With a MyNYSTRS account, members and retirees can review their personal membership and benefit information, and schedule appointments with System representatives or reserve a seat at a Pre-retirement Planning Seminar. Registered members can now also change their address online, eliminating the need to fill out and mail a form. Additional self-service tools are being developed and will be added as they become available.
The Web sites Library replaces the Publications tab and is designed as a one-stop shop for members access to various resources and tools. In addition to publications visitors can access a video (more will be added soon), press releases and other retirement planning tools.
The Forms page has been restructured to simplify locating and printing System forms. They are arranged by group of interest or form type, making it quicker and easier to find the necessary forms.
NYSTRS is steadfastly committed to providing superior service to its members, and the new Web site is one more sign of this commitment.
