RPTS Launches New Web Site
RPTS has a new digital look! Launched at the end of 2014, the new RPTS web site has many new features and has been designed to work well on many of the most popular smartphones and tablets.
“A huge amount of internet traffic is being directed through mobile devices,” notes RPTS Director of Development Mark Sampson. “We wanted a site that would make the browsing experience easier for mobile users.”
The web site was put on a “digital diet,” meaning that clutter was eliminated so potential and existing students could easily find the information that they needed. Popular links include the library catalog and the news tab, which lists upcoming events. Also debuting under the alumni tab is the Reformed Presbyterian Theological Journal, a collection of academic works from various seminary faculty members.
