CompuTutor in-person sessions are on hold, but please submit your requests for help using this form https://ucv.im/tech-help and a member of the UCV tech team will assist you.
We are glad to help with anything tech related. No question is too small!
For services to continue to be virtual, we need to train some more members to learn how to produce and broadcast Sunday services and support our current incredible, over-worked team.
Anyone interested in helping with technology, send your details here: https://ucv.im/
Mary Bennett is also looking for zoom hosts for the various Connect and Engage zoom gatherings. Training and coaching provided.
For over 6 months, we hosted this every Thursday at 2 pm.
Now we’re doing monthly on the first Tuesday at 4 pm.
Mary coaches the group through basic zoom protocol and possibilities.
If people are interested in learning about hosting or co-hosting, we can spend some time on that as well.
We start with a check-in to see where people are at and go from there. We try to make sure everyone learns at least one of the things on their list.

Here’s some great advice for being on a zoom call from UU minister Rev. Sarah Skochko https://sarahskochko.com/
She’s the minister at the UU Church of Eugene, Oregon.
Check in every Thursday at 2pm for zoom practice.
Topics covered: mute on/off; video on/off; change name; chat (via text) to an individual or everyone; raising hand; thumbs up/clapping icons. A great way to get comfortable outside of a regular meeting or gathering.
Mary also offers a one-hour session for people who will be hosting zoom calls with some more tips and tricks. Send a note and she’ll set up a time and invite others.
Many UCV’ers are concerned about privacy and security of information right now. Did you know we have PIPA officers? To find out what PIPA is and who to contact click https://safenote.co/r/5e91f46cd4dd05@11333110
Christian (one of our techie support folk) recommends https://safenote.co/ if you need to send someone confidential information such as a password or private zoom link.
The program allows you to decide how long the message will be available, either by length of time (default is 1 day) or number of clicks (default is 1)
Here’s the secret you should get from the above note.
PIPA stands for Personal Information Protection Act. Every organization must have at least one PIPA officer. UCV’s PIPA officers are our Congregational Administrator Aurora ca@vancouverunitarians.ca and Board Member Huguette huguettesansonet@aol.com
