ReadyTalk to Provide Audio and Web Conferencing and Event Services Through a New Partnership With the National Association of County and City Health Officials

DENVER, Sept. 27 /PRNewswire/ -- ReadyTalk, a leader in integrated audio and web conferencing services, today announced a strategic partnership with the National Association of County and City Health Officials (NACCHO) providing the organization and its members with reliable, easy-to-use audio and web conferencing and webinars.

Representing nearly 3,000 governmental health departments, NACCHO also hosts regular webinars to provide education and training sessions on timely topics. For example, during last year's N1H1 flu outbreak, NACCHO used ReadyTalk's webinar and event services to provide updates to organizations and training on how to handle the outbreak and citizen reaction.

"Our mission is to develop resources and programs that protect, improve and build awareness around the health of all people and all communities; the ability to easily host webinars and large-scale web events is crucial to our ability to meet our goals," said Cindy Phillips, senior advisor with NACCHO. "More importantly, ReadyTalk's Event Team has helped us expand the reach of our educational programs with professional, polished events."

In addition to webinars, NACCHO uses ReadyTalk's audio and web conferencing daily to collaborate with local government health organizations. NACCHO can use a single, secure service for everyday collaboration, connecting with remote members and hosting large-scale webinars.

"It's a single package with all the tools for collaboration, training, webinars and demos; there's no need to upgrade or purchase other product, said Scott King, vice president of sales and marketing, ReadyTalk." This means NACCHO always has the right tools in their toolbox when they need them."

Through the partnership, NACCHO members also have access to ReadyTalk's services and discounted rates. For more information on the partnership, visit http://pages.readytalk.com/naccho.
